Pretty much of a case of to quote Richey Edwards "If you stand up like a nail then you will be knocked down."

He stood up then harshly and cruelly after saving numerous knocked down!

Incidently no-one heard Richey Edwards or Holy Bible it's genius!

I read the thread title in James Dean Bradfield's voice, so yes. I can't help you with supporting the theory that the lyric applies to Jono though.

It is an ancient saying. A bit older than Richey Edwards.

Lol!

Well Jono basically stood up and did good and then life cruelly beat him up!

And killed him sadly.

As often happens!

Whch I think the lyric basically says! In general towards everyone. Life is cruel.

I dont get the quote in the beginning, but it was unfortunate that Jono died.

I rather think the quote has far greater meaning and gravitas than the death of Jono on Hollyoaks really deserves.

It is pretty clear.

"The nail (person) that stands out gets knocked down."

That was sort of what I was getting at, thank you for putting it better than I would've.
