She's Tommy's girlfriend/crazy prison penpal.
Tommy's Mum was who they cremated.

Ok I'm new to this. Just finished the third episode/first series. I know ALL the locations including the mission in Huddersfield smile

Bit weird- I love it but also struggle with it. Can anyone explain what I'm thinking?! Too familiar with the scenery?

Cripes this has to be one of the most thoroughly depressing series ever!

Series 2 is not blowing me away as much as series 1 did (unless I am looking back on it, and remembering as being better than it was), the "whispering" Physco school teacher I find a bit annoying.

I don't understand what your question is.

So you are three episodes into the original series, not the current one?

I'm finding her oddly attractive!

I was going to post earlier about how grim this program is, the leading character seems to have nothing going for her in any way apart from her dogged determination to get the job done, but I have to say I'm quite enjoying it now.

Out of interest the tower which you get a glimpse of now and again is Wainhouse and has a bit of an odd history about it, I have been up it as it opens just once or twice per year for visitors, not my pics:

From ground zero- series one I've just finished the third episode.

On another note - Steve Pemberton, how ace is he? biggrin

I've just watched the first two episodes that i thoroughly enjoyed but i never watched the first series.


Did the guy who raped the daughter kill her too ? i'm guessing this if it did happened in series one .

I'm just a tad confused.




I kept expecting the bunny boiler to pull out a model London taxi instead of her phone.

Think she killed herself but Royce was blamed.

The daughter committed suicide after she had given birth to the lad with the Scalextric.

I've heard this is quite good, but I'm gonna have to wait till the first series is repeated.

Whilst I think this is the best think on the tellybox currently, I think this 2nd series isn't as gritty as the first

Because she was raped by Royce, got pregnant, had the kid, but never got over it and topped herself 6 weeks later.
