New thread.

Judging from last night, we can choose between Theo, Megan, Carl and Maggie. Oh, and Shona's sister. None of them would be a miss, to be honest, but I'd rather see Theo meet his maker.

Megan adds nothing for me, and Maggie has been a disappointment. Carl is a villainous baddie, but we need a 'love to hate' character, and I know nothing about Shona's sister other than that she (inexplicably) seems to fancy David.

Sadly, it won’t be Dev, as he could be tried for Crimes Against Acting.

No, it’s going to be either Megan, Maggie, Theo, Carl or Jodie.

Hmm 🤷‍♀️

Bukkie she would be sharing the prize with others. Sorry Aveline but the ghastly Dev would be top of my list as well as Mary.

Bukkie Tue 17-Feb-26 09:44:23

I don't think Betsy is the killer but the person who finds the body. That's how I interpreted it anyway. Carl is a great actor and we can't afford to lose a good one. Fingers crossed it's Gemma for crimes against acting.

They really are going all out to attract a new audience, aren't they?

It's almost as though they are building in spoilers - someone is going to be killed (by Betsy??), but we don't know who it is. Odd. It's too early to know whether it will work or not, but it's much more usual to know the victim but not who the killer is. I'd like the victim to be Theo, and the killer to not be Todd, as I want him to be happy.

Charleygirl5 Tue 17-Feb-26 09:36:42

Calendargirl I also would like all five of them to be removed permanently. I do feel sorry for Todd because he doesn't deserve the awful life he is living. This nonsense may carry on until April.

I also wondered if I had missed an episode.

I would love Betsy to leave permanently but probably I am wishing for too much. I still think that 30 minites is too short.

Someone unexpected flashed up as the victim on my iPad May be clickbait but I m saying no more in case, I tried to close my eyes but when you ve seen it you ve seen it!

I really thought it was me when I saw Betsy in the interrogation room as I d just been watching Emmerdale and they were also in the interrogation room !!! I thought I was going gaga

I was lost a lot of the time in that episode, I hope they don’t do any more like that.

Calendargirl Tue 17-Feb-26 06:29:54

I’d seen that there was going to be this ‘flashback’ episode, with silly little Betsy being the body finder.

Plus there’s been trailers showing the possible ‘bodies’.

Who will it be?

Frankly, I wish it could be all of them, as they are all nasty characters.

Maggie, in particular, is no sort of role model as a granny.

Some of them look to have facial injuries, why, I don’t know.

Oh my goodness I am not going to like this 'flash forward' business!

Nor me.

Or me. Backwards and forwards. I suppose those characters shown at the end are the victims/murderers? Who knows?

Grannynannywanny Mon 16-Feb-26 22:19:11

I started watching and thought I’d missed an episode and checked my recordings and could see I hadn’t. Went back to the start and eventually the penny dropped that it was a flash forward. Or is it a flashback? It’s all very confusing. Whatever the heck it’s called I don’t like it.

I’ve been worried about poor Todd that he’s eventually going to break and set about the vile Theo and end up on the wrong side of the law. I’m worried even more tonight after seeing him with the knife in his hand.

BlueBelle Mon 16-Feb-26 22:07:38

Well I thought I was in a parallel universe there
I was texting my friend ‘when did that happen’ ‘ what’s that etc etc’ and she was saying ‘no idea’

I like Ollie, I think he should work in the Bistro. He is too good for mardy Lauren.

Bukkie Sat 14-Feb-26 23:36:21

Poor Todd, it's heartbreaking to watch. C'mon Christina save him.

Oh my giddy aunt - Will is meant to be some sort of elite runner - I laughed when he came galumphing along, I can run better than that! (Not sure that I can really!)

Poor Todd, I can't bear it...

We thought that! 🤣🤣

Aveline Sat 14-Feb-26 17:01:26

Billy's painting has also disappeared

Jodieb Sat 14-Feb-26 16:27:53

Perhaps things will move along when Todd realises Billy's photo has vanished. The last straw maybe. Maybe. I live in hope.

Cabowich Sat 14-Feb-26 13:54:41

Todd's behaviour is so off-kilter, I can't see why the other characters haven't twigged what's going on yet.

Clawdy Sat 14-Feb-26 08:28:54

Yes, come back, Jason!

Maggiemaybe Fri 13-Feb-26 20:09:40

Yes. I know that in real life abusive relationships do go on and get worse for a long time, but this is a soap, one not usually known for its real time stories, and my nerves really can’t take much more for poor Todd. He needs to be rescued now, by George, Sarah, Kit, Gary or any of his many friends, if not by Eileen or Jason riding in to the rescue and sorting vile Theo out once and for all.

Lovetopaint037 Fri 13-Feb-26 19:32:59

Just fed up with Todd continuing to take abuse from Theo. Theo in charge of his money so leaving Todd with a few coins and he says nothing!!! We thought Billy had convinced him that he was being gaslighted and something was going to happen. No in Corrie style it drags on ad nauseam.

Calendargirl Fri 13-Feb-26 17:38:58

I do like Ollie, he seems so nice.

Doesn’t need to waste his time on mardy Lauren.

Calendargirl Fri 13-Feb-26 17:37:44

Surely Megan’s pregnancy will soon have to make itself known?

Particularly as daft Will then goes and gives her a personalised babygro in the school corridor?

Duh!

How is she going to fob it off on Daniel, (assuming she is) when Will knows (or thinks) it’s his?
