Lucy's Phone clue?
Perhaps I missed something but is Lucy's phone a clue? Malachy the police office said it wasn't on her when she was found, and also Peter seemed to know the day before that Lucy has been called 4 times by Ian vs. 1 for him, which suggests he saw it at some time during the night or has it. Does this mean he has the phone and knows more about what happened to her or was involved in her death?

Yes he did.
Did we see it though? I figured that scene was to show that nobody knew she was dead and were still calling her thinking she was just in a sulk, or some arty-farty thing about life Vs death - I'm sure there's a metaphor in there somewhere. Hence why nobody called to police to report her missing.
Edit: Actually, it probably wasn't there at all, because - for some reason - I thought I remembered seeing a pink phone which is nonsense because I'm fairly sure Lucy's phone wasn't pink. God knows what i'm thinking about - I think I must be doting.
Not necessarily.
If you see her body at the end of Friday's episode, her bags contents was all over the place, meaning the killer may well have rummaged through her bag to steal the phone... and then the messages bit was the killer playing them at another location or whatever.
Like that theory very much
I think the phone messages were symbolic rather than the actual phone being played at the scene or elsewhere - exposition rather than a plot point.
As an aside I think while her phone was stolen to keep away evidence, her purse was just taken to make it seem like a robbery gone wrong. We can all safely assume her death will have been much more than that.
Because they want it to look like a mugging
Doh! I completely missed that.
to make identification harder - maybe...........
the killer probably didnt know Lucys fingerprints were on file so probably thought taking her purse would make the police identification harder and also possibly to make it look like a mugging
Yep. I did wonder why we were only just being told about Lucy shoplifting. I guess if it was going to look like a mugging, the purse and phone had to be missing so they needed a way for the police to be able to identify her.
