I have to believe that the spoiklers are misleading and that JP's interview was given from Christian's very blinkered perspective. What we saw with our own eyes on Monday/ Tuesday last week was very clear. We are not idiots. And we were watchng extremely closely. Syed was in pieces, completely torn apart by guilt over his betrayal. The idea that he backed out of admitting to sleeping with Danny after seeing Christian's reaction.... ugh, unfortunately I can buy this because Syed has proved himself to be a coward. However I can't accept that he would then have felt able to go on as he did, not just marrying Christian, but marrying him with a look on his face which was open, glowing and full of nothing but love, happiness and certainty of his readiness to commit himself to the man he loves.
During the wedding ep, either:
a) Syed was telling Christian the truth
or
b) Syed was lying and has miraculously gone from the worst liar in the history of soap to the best - to the point that not even those writing for, directing or acting his character knew the truth.
As you say, despite this all evidence is pointing in the other direction. I'll hope for the least bad scenario, i.e. that Chryed's final weeks on screen descend into ridiculous miscommunication-related farce. Maybe Leyton could come back for a cameo appearance. The alternative prospect, that we're about to see all continuity and everything special about Chryed, wrecked - certainly beyond any kind of last minute Julia's Theme repair - for the sake of a week's worth of draama, absolutely disgusts me.
You know it's bad when you get all excited at the sight of Syed packing clown shirt because it's a little part of him you recognise.”
Oh vf, SO this.
BIB: absolutely. Shame on tptb if this atrocity turns out to be the case.

Totally agree.
