OMG!!!
I am gobsmacked!!!! I never saw that coming at all.
Has there ever been a soap other than PYC that has tackled a child bulling his/her Mother before? I can`t think of any. It`s such a brilliant storyline - although it sickens me to watch it - especially when so many people think its accecptable for SIoned to be such a bee-itch. I`m surprised Kevin hasn`t walloped her by now.
I hope that Huw is merely supporting Lois. I don't want him making any plans to marry her and raise this child. Yes, Lois is in difficult position, but she still betrayed Huw and she has to sort things out with Rhys. Huw needs to step back and figure out how he really feels about her. Can he really forgive her? And even if he does, is he still in love with her? Does he want to be saddled with a child at the age of 16?
WelshHoll, your _____ dislike will never cease to amuse me.
Has anyone seen the spoiler for two weeks ahead? Not good.
Seems like Scott rapes Macs. Macs hides that he was raped from everyone.
That's a very brave storyline. It's not been tackled on TV very often. I'm confident they'll handle it sensitively though.
I've often thought there should be a sort of late-night PyC like with Hollyoaks or a spin-off series of webisodes. It would give them the chance to explore more extreme, controversial storylines. I don't think it would be practical with having to film 5 nights of normal episodes though.
Really pleased there's a thread for PYC as I've watched for years! I'm a fluent Welsh speaker, so it's good that I can still keep up my Welsh via the programme as I no longer speak it since leaving school. Parents can't speak Welsh, but still enjoy the programme thanks to the subtitles.

Really didn't see this coming! :eek: When PYC is good, it's fantastic and deals with a lot more than most soaps for that time of the night. This should play out very well and will be interesting to watch. Thanks for the spoiler.

Leanne does come back to seek revenge on sioned for humiliating her in prison
Also re the Scott and Macs thing i think
That Gwen_PYC may have mis interpreted the spoilers from on the box and uk net guide, Macs does indeed try and wash away all traces of the attack by scott but does that mean he was sexually assaulted by Scott?

How else can those spoilers be interpreted?
Scott violates Macs who tries to wash the evidence away and hides it from Iolo and Sioned.
I seriously can't believe the Scott & Macs thing. I would never have suspected that! Isn't Scott supposed to be leaving? I usually watch the reapeat of PYC at 6, but for this episode, I'm watching it at 8!
WelshHoll, your _____ dislike will never cease to amuse me.
I've tolerated him this week just because I love Anita's character and I didn't want to miss out on a storyline involving her and Meic. He has been grating on me though. The idea of him being intimate with anyone makes me nauseated. I hope Kevin knocks him out
Yes, he is. I remember posting weeks ago that the character was useless and that he might as well go, but then it looked like they were doing something with him and Ffion. Now they are getting rid of him in an explosive manner. Those spoilers make me feel really bad for Macs.
Now they are getting rid of him in an explosive manner.
I'm glad they're getting rid of him like this. The character has done basically nothing the whole time he's been in Cwmderi, just been a secondary character to Sioned. It'll be good that his character hasn't been a complete waste!
What was Ffion talking about when she and Scott got in the car? I started watching after Izzy went, so I have no idea what they were talking about
She was telling Scott about Macs raping Izzy.
If you don't know the whole story, Izzy used to be with Macs. She left him and got with Jinx and Macs was incredibly jealous, almost Fatal Attraction style. Anyway, Jinx got tired of this and after some provocation attacked Macs. He played right into Macs's hands because Macs videoed it and threatened to go to the police with the tape. Since Jinx was on probation at the time (or had previous offences, I forget which) he would have almost certainly gone to jail. Macs blackmailed Izzy - if she slept with him, he wouldn't report Jinx, so she slept with him against her will.

Ah right that makes sense. Were Scott & Izzy friends?
No, I don't think so. When all this happened, Scott was just Sioned's boyfriend and not much else. I don't think he even lived in the village or anything at the time.
It was disturbing. I had to watch the Scott/Macs scenes peeking through my fingers. I'm glad they didn't show too much.
I kind of feel sorry for Anita, but Colin... My sympathies lie with Meic.
I'm glad they didn't show too much too. I liked how everything was just implied and not actually shown (not that they could've shown it anyway, given the timeslots of the omnibus and repeats). The not knowing makes it more disturbing.
I do feel sorry for Anita, it seems like she only realised what she had when it was gone. As for Colin...I've made it clear what I feel about him :mad:
Just an amazing episode! Anita totally deserves it! I love Meic and Kev! They really seem like father and son sometimes.
As to Scott and Macs - WOW. I knew what was going to happen but if I didn't I would be tempted to think Macs suffered the same fate as Shep. I'm probably in a minority, especially after this episode, but I'm really going to miss Scott's big blue eyes. I wonder if he'll be back at some point
Cynical me wonders how long Sioned and Eillen's new found understanding is going to last. Not that long, I imagine
Now... onto a couple of Meic and Anita questions... I know they were together a long time ago. Imagine Anita using that as an excuse t.o cheat with Colin 30+ years later! And I know Darren is their son. But who is older? Darren or Kevin? I'm guessin Kevin (we know he's 37). Anita is 50. If she was 17/18 when Darren was born that would make him 32-ish. So that means that Meic maried Nancy Furlong (and divorced her) five years before he met Anita? Hardly seems like "young love" if he was 22+ and already divorced.

I think it would be difficult to see that phrase meaning anything else.
I was totally blown away by the proposal/engagement! Great storyline...as much as I dislike Sioned, it's going to be fun!

Eileen was very sweet to an undeserving Sioned.
