Astute is another. If he can prove Carla and Peter are sneaking around lying and having an affair, it certainly helps his case that they set him up. As does Peter lying to the police about her drink driving, if he brings that up.
Yeah, I suppose. But to be fair, neither Carla or Peter were sneaking around and having affair whilst him and Carla were dating. There was that one kiss, but he is unaware of that, and there certainly was no affair between Carla and Peter during their relationship. |

Problem is, if Frank's investigator discovers their affair, no one is going to believe they weren't having an affair while Carla was still with Frank
![]() To be fair, she lay her cards on the table that time they kissed (although I agree her timing was awful) and, when Peter told her he wanted Leanne not her, she did back off and try to forget him. It was only really after the crash, when maybe Carla saw the controlling side of Frank, that she tried again and I think that a slightly unhinged act of desperation more than anything. |

When Peter said "You're living in a fantasy land" I think he pretty much summed it up to be honest. In my opinion at least, she didn't really love Peter, at least not as much as she made out, but was kind of looking for a way out, reading into things and convincing herself that he loved her. It was like she wanted him to save her... If you watch that scene with everything that's happened since in mind, it's heartbreaking.

I think now though, she genuinely does love Peter. I think he does too.. but in some way's it is clear to see with him. |

I liked watching the episode on Monday with Parla in it. I wonder if Leanne will finish with him when she finds out?

Although nothing physical happened between the pair it could easily be argued they had an emotional affair.
I don't like the idea of anyone being a mistress and it saddens me that Carla has gone through that much to now consider being it - she never wanted to be the other woman with Liam, she doesn't suit it. The fact that she has to resort to having this affair to be happy is very sad, especially knowing its all gonna end in tears. |

I'm delighted to hear that the Paul and Eileen storyline is gonna run well into 2012. More screen time for the divine Sue Cleaver- woohoo!

Couple of thoughts re Frank's trial based on some of the upcoming spoilers.
Apparently Anne tries to bribe Carla into dropping the charges with Frank's 40% shares, but Peter is hiding in the next room. Surely, this would help Carla's case and could be used against Frank, and if Anne were to dispute it, Peter was there, so could back up Carla's story. Having said that, if Peter was there, questions would be asked, and that might fuel rumours they were having an affair PRE rape. I suppose it would depend if Anne showed Carla any documents, or what happened next, but i wonder if the bribe would be a help or hindrance to Carla? And whether it would help in Frank being sent down? Although surely something greater would have to be discovered/occur to reall hammer it home so to speak. |

I love Sue Cleaver but i think the Eileen/Paul storyline is becoming a bit tedious, it's raising an issue that is interesting to explore but why would Eileen take on that responsibility? I have so much sympathy for Paul and i'd love for Eileen to be happy but i can't see where this storyline could go.
With the spoiler about Frank's Mum I reckon Carla and Peter would be a bit hesitant to admit Peter was there.. Although it would show that Anne has doubts about her own son but with Frank's previous allegations of them having an affair couldn't he just use his annoyingly persuading charm to convince the court it's just Peter and Carla plotting against him? Peter is hardly a reputable witness for Carla in the eyes of the court. Ahh, i so hope Frank gets what he deserves! |

Re Anne's bribe, I don't really see how Carla can use it against Frank... I mean in theory yes she could, but Frank and (I'm guessing) Anne know so much about her they could use (her being the one who hit Stella, for starters) that I don't know whether Carla would risk rocking the boat so to speak. Plus she can't really prove it, as I'm assuming she just goes over there and does it kind of informally at the flat. |

Well, they were filming the trial this week, and Andrew Lancel was filming today, so unless he is murdered during/after the trial.
I just thought that the fact Anne is making bribes must mean she doubts Frank, and that it wouldn't help his case, trying to bribe the victim into dropping the charges - implies he has something to hide. But i admit bringing Peter into it would confirm suspicions, particularly if he was hiding in the bedroom! |

Well, now we know for sure Sian leaves on the 30th January, straight after the wedding is aborted. She's not listed for the next week. Sian must tell her to go to hell and leaves in a black cab. Or her mums car.The fact it all comes out the next episode tells you Sian must find out about Amber on the friday. Drama.
Carla turning up at Frank's do isn't going to help her rape case at all. It will make her look vindictive and hysterical. It won't look good when brought up in court. Oh Carla you are destroying your own case, first the affair with Peter, lying to your solicitor about it, and now making yourself look vindictive. |

I was just wondering, would Carla's suicide attempt support her case, in that it was the rape and his subsequent actions that made her want to end her life - everyone knows how strong Carla is, i know that in itself isn't evidence, but surely for Carla to be making it up, to commit suicide with such a hefty overdose would be taking it too far no?
I would be surprised if anyone could claim Carla was just doing it to "frame" Frank, to be honest, i would be shocked/saddened if anyone in this world tried to commit suicide to frame somebody else - allegedly. |

I don't think it was a hefty overdose - the viewers saw her up and about again very quickly; I think it was a cry for help. |

I have just realised that Frank himself doesn't know about the suicide attempt. If it was revealed in court - if Carla herself told her solicitor/lawyers - I wonder how frank and his team would react.
But do you think it will be brought up again or will we never hear of it from now on...? What is Sally thinking though, hooking up with a rapist?! Even if she can't allow herself to believe Carla, what about Maria? Sally must have doubts about Frank, and yet she starts a relationship with him. Outrageous in my opinion. |

Good question. I think everything might come out in the trial. Frank would be shocked, not sure if we'd see any remorse from his side because all he cares about is being found not guilty, him and his lawyer would probably find a way to use it to their advantage. I would like to see how Anne and Sally would react though... I'm waiting to see - at least - a flicker of doubt in Anne's eyes.

Sally must have doubts about Frank, and yet she starts a relationship with him. Outrageous in my opinion. Sally has always thought herself a cut above everyone else and Frank has played on that and has done an excellent job of casting himself as the victim of Carla's "lies" and Sally has been sucked right in. The actress who plays Sally said in an interview that Frank is a powerful man and that is a real attraction to Sally. |
