I don't know that Gethin set the fire. One because the whole idea that the fire was set by Gethin to get rid of Brandon because of some pyscho sexual obsession with Dani, is a very cliche plotline from a crime procedural like CSI, Criminal Minds Waking the Dead etc. In the last 6 month I seen something similar 4 times.

It would let Garry off the hook completely for his extremely abusive behavior on the week of the fire. I don't think Garry should be let off the hook. There is plenty of motive there for someone to hate Garry.

Also I think whatever is going on with Gethin has been in the works for a long time started prior to the fire. I don't think its random its been planed probably for the last 6 months or so. Yes ever since Dani went to find Moc the weirdness has been ramped up. But Gethin has been weird around Wil ever since he came back from Canda. Its not new so I don't think its related to the fire.

Why does Dai dislike Derek so much?

And is Norman still a character or has he been bumped to recurring like Megan? both are at the funeral and I know nothing about them.
I was wondering why Dai disliked Derek too kittykat,

It`s the first time in ages that I have seen Norman. I love that character!! Norman is a Councillor and is in the process of having a new posh hotel built.
Norman fancied Eileen, and the feeling was mutual. Last year Eileen was on a hen night (I think it was Gwyneths/Yvonnes). And the entertainment that night was Norman dressed as Marilyn Monroe! Eileen felt humiliated at first, but then her and Norman became good friends.
I haven`t seen much of Megan since the imposter Frank was in it. Megan was married to Reg, and they used to own the Deri. You can see Reg`s photo (or used to) on the wall in the Deri at one time.
Ironically the man who played Reg died last year, although on PYC he died quite a few years ago.

Why haven't we seen more of Norman? Do you think it's because he is older middle aged character?

Was great to see Jinx back.

Not 100% sure of this but think I read that Derek kidnapped Diane and held her in a caravan? Sure he'd been with Diane9 Married?) and was jealous of her and Dai.
I'll try find the link http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/pobolycwm...ai_diane_story

Thanks for that Pixxy/


It was great to see Jinx back and a total surprise. It was only a few weeks ago I was asking on here if he was ever coming back.
Now that he is back, will he move back in with Gwyneth?

I am shocked at Hwyel and Ffion and very disappointed. Things are going to be very awkward at school when Gaynor finds out.
Did Hwyel see Ffion with that bottle of vodka yesterday? She seemed to be quick in exchanging that vodka for a water bottle, but surely Hywel would have smelt it on her breath when they kissed?

I think as we only get 'teasers' for PYC and not spoilers really, it adds to my enjoyment of the show. Though it would be nice to know if characters have left or not, like Griffiths.

yeah I like that name 'teasers' - a good description Pixxy

I`d like to know if Griffiths have left. I think he has left because both Norman and Diane are Councillors now, and apart from CwmFM, Griffiths has no ties to PYC anymore. Well there is the house where Iilo lives that Griffiths owns. We need closure on Griffiths whether he is coming back or not. A letter addressed to Iolo perhaps offering to buy the house for instance.

Hwyel knows she been drinking again, he doesn't care. He wants to be with Ffion right now. He turned to Ffion not Gaynor after Denzil's death. That says something. And Rhys wants them together.

Gaynor tries too hard, and her jealousy is unattractive. There are just as many issues between Gaynor and Hwyel as there are between Ffion and Hwyel. The abortion, Lois giving up Gwen, Rhys refusing to live with Gaynor.

Hwyel is going to go with what his heart tells him. It seems to be with Ffion.

Why do you think Macs didn't ask about Sioned's blow up at Nansi in Y Deri? Eileen did. He wants to stay in denial maybe.

I wondered that too. I thought he might ask her what she did to make Denzil hate her. Maybe he was thinking that she was already in distress....I hope he asks her tonight!

I hope it adds some much needed tension between Macs and Sioned. Macs still seems a little fragile to me. The way he has been leaning on his family, looks like a person who still needs support.

Great episodes Thursday! I'm glad that Nansi and Eileen are friends but I wonder how long that will last if Nansi goes after Sioned. And Emily Tucker was wonderful as always

Maureen is going to be a great addition! I know the actress, Rebbeca Harries, from Ar y Tracs but I recognized her in a flashback in the "round the corner" piece so I guess she was on Pobol y Cwm years ago. I never thought she was old enough! That's the thing once you start watching Welsh language shows - the same people turn up again and again!

I'm a little surprised/dissapointed that Dia and Diane choose to avoid the wake because of Derek. That just doesn't sound like Dai to me whatever happened between them all in the past.

Always great to see Norman. He has been a recurring character on the show for several years (as long as I've been watching, anyway). That little turn in the spotlight with Eileen was nice and I hope they bring him in again but he always comes and goes.

I'm loving Hwyel and Ffion and the fact that Rhys saw them! If he'll forgive her for Cai then Gaynor doesn't stand a chance!

And Meic was wonderful giving the eulogy and then talking with Sioned at Y Deri and, of course, drunk with Derek at the end. It was fun to hear about the blind date Meic and Dic set up with Nansi and Denz. The whole episode was a great shout out to the past

If he reacts the way we think he will, probably!

Sioned obviously thinks she would rather tell Eileen. After how horrible she was with Eileen that says something.

It would pretty boring if Macs just forgives her because 3 years ago he drugged Jinx. That really shouldn't be more important than what happened 6 months ago.

Yeh Macs is a completely different person and the script writers probably won't remember about Jinx...
I think Sioned will be back living with Eileen - should be interesting!
