i really want
Rob
to get away with killing Tina. But they always get found out in the end. Have people in other soaps never been caught? 0

Or did he slip?
Janine (twice)
Ronnie (Currently)
Stacey (Looks that way)
ED: Carl
I don't think either of Janine's could have been technically classified as murder, not that I'm doubting, much as I love her, that she's a wrong'un. Didn't Nick get away with the murder of Reg Cox?
Who did she kill??
I thought so. This is why I would love him to have been involved some way in Lucy's death. EE started with the discovery of a murder he committed and got away with, so it seems the perfect way to tie up a murder mystery culminating on the 30th anniversary for him to be unmasked as having been involved somehow.
Who was the second person? Was it Ashley? If so, what happened about that? Did he get away with it? I can't remember.
Eddie Royle?
Nick Cotton murdered Reg Cox (the guy found dead in the shows first episode) by beating him and then he murdered pub landlord Eddie Royle by stabbing him to death whilst on heroin. He got away scot-free with Reg's murder, he was arrested and charged with Eddie's murder but was found not guilty in court thus getting away with murder twice. Ashley's death was also down to Nick but indirectly Nick tampered with the breaks on Mark's motorbike in an attempt to kill him but Ashley got on it and crashed and died.
Aha. Before my time. He didn't really murder Ashley, he killed him accidentally in the process of trying to murder Mark. I'm not sure what the legal definition of that is!
Did Warren in Hollyoaks get away with murder? Louise and Sean?
She was eventually sent to prison for manslaughter.
Aha, I think we cross-posted there! I didn't know about Eddie Royle. Thanks for the info!
I so, so wanted Chrissie to get away with Den's murder! And I'd have been gutted if Janine went down too, even though I really liked Michael. I'm more ambivalent about Stacey. She doesn't have their wit or class.
