Happy Valley

[Howdy]

Kiri is fantastic but Last Tango is my FAVOURITE EVER! Watch them both.

Guys, I'm new here, hi Full blown Wainwright fangirl and fricking OBSESSED with Happy Valley. It's agony waiting a week between episodes!

Definitely think Rob is going to panic and hide the body because he can see all fingers will point to him and doesn't want to go down for it, then it'll end up in a right torrid mess as they do the math and realise it was Faisal. I think Faisal will be done for the murder and Rob will end up being charged with obstruction of justice or similar. More might come out about the grooming, too...? His attitude change toward Ryan was too swift - I'm not sure if that seed was planted to make the revelation about Rob & Joanna getting together while she was a student and he a teacher land with more impact, or there's more to come.

Fascinated to read the theories here about Neil being TLR's dad. Imagine!!!

I'm loving Kiri. God it is so good. The actor who plays Kiri's grandfather is amazing. Will watch LTIH too.

I said to my partner he should have watched it with me and he said no because he finds "the blonde woman annoying"

One word... Divorce

Just catching up on this thread now I watched last night's episode...

Guessing everyone is over the idea of TLR going after Mr Hepworth now?

Just a (probably not very relevant) observation - there was no reason for them to cut to Rob's mum when he was on the phone to her unless she features in the last two episodes and plays a more important part in that story

Also, in retrospect the reveal about Joanne being Rob's pupil explains her character a bit more - she'd been groomed since she was a teenager then went from school straight into an abusive marriage (and I guess was quite a bit younger than we originally thought?) - and so there might have been a bit of arrested development going in there. The clumsy way she tried to manipulate Faisel, for example was a bit like something a teenager would do

What I didn't understand about that is that her older of the two girls seems about 12? Joanna's character was apparently only 26 when she died - I'd thought she was meant to be in her early 30s.

Yeah he does. Go on YouTube and look him up in clips from Dancin’ Thru the Dark from years ago!

Why is it spelt like that? Incredibly jarring.

Omg I feel the same I just can't stand her

Was anyone else fuming that they took Ryan to see his dad in jail? Like on what planet was that a good idea?
Also why was it sooo easy for him to escape? I thought he would take Ryan with him.

Darius Knezevich was a slightly underwhelming screen presence in a series that usually over delivers in terms of villains. What accent is that meant to be?

 

[Probablylurking66]

duck me sideways he is fit af!!

See, as attractive as he is, I can't fancy him because he's too convincingly psychotic like how when he brutally murdered Kirsten he didn't even flinch

Couldn't find a decent one in his suit so have a topless one instead

Lovely nipples as well.

The daughters are primary school age so I guess they are meant to be 6/7-8/9 ish meaning she was 18/20…or younger, fresh out of school and newly married to the nutter.

You can't stand Sarah Lancashire? Must make this show difficult to watch

Are you married to Tommy Lee Royce??

Watch it for the plot, but she's very annoying to me.

 

[wibblywobblywoo]

I ❤ Sarah Lancashire and her portrayal of Catherine is fantastic

I’m shallow, I can see past that

I mean, he's hot but what if he's a really crap shag?

There's no way. A man doesn't have that just raw charisma, charm, and just general good duck vibes to be a limp sack in the bed. Don't ruin this for us.

Can you not feel the BD energy? He is good in bed ok?

He'd not care for your pleasure, BD or not!

To be honest, that's okay with me. If he just takes me rough and raw. A good seeing you, left me exhausted.

Do you mean you don't like SL or the character she plays? Personally I like both but if I found a key actor or character that annoying I'd just not watch.
