Yeh I wondered why they did washing and ironing too.
There's always been washing and ironing at APD. Remember when Dani worked there? That's what she used to do the ironing and washing.

So Gethin is jealous because Iolo has a relationship and he doesn't. Also he misses his son. I feel bad for him actually. Gethin feeling sorry for himself isn't a threat to Iolo and William. I like to see something decent happen for Gethin for once. If Garry, Eifion and that loser Ed (who runs over his girlfriend with a car) can have a relationship Gethin can.

I was surprised they brought up Ed's past abuse of Sioned. I think trying to run her over was a much bigger deal than they've let on so far.

I thought his nearly running her and Garry over was downplayed by everyone. The whole thing was kind of weird and there should have been much more drama. The reactions seemed to be kind of muted. And the bit about Dani insisting she be Garry's moll on the car thefts? That was just stupid. Who does that? Dani should be insisting that he quit altogether. Dumb.

I won't be watching until this weekend, but it's too bad Gethin isn't jealous because he wants Iolo for himself. The show could have gone there when they had the chance back during Gethin's recovery when Iolo helped him deal with his father's abuse and they were getting close. And it would be much better than the boring triangle with Ffion and Jinx. They just need to bring on a new woman altogether for Gethin, but that's unlikely.

I still think there's more deadwood that needs to be cleared out to bring on new blood. They really only get rid of someone when they want to leave. Eifon could go. He hasn't been relevant in forever. I'd write out Cadno as well and bring on a new family to run that farm as a way to introduce new people.

I thought Iolo and Gethin had something between them but tbh it was nothing like the obsession Gethin had for Sheryl and now Ffion. It wouldn't have made a lot of sense for him to be wanting to be with Iolo at this point. Gethin is clearly really into women.


Ed is another character I'd like to see either get a backstory or be written out. It seems to be the consensus that Ed is a better boyfriend Sioned than Macs her previous one. I don't get why though. Because I at least understood after the rape storyline what was driving Mac's behavior. With Ed he's dull most of time and then he has spurts of nastiness and violence which has never been really explained. I think he's physically hurt Sioned far more than Macs did.

Totally. I wasn't impressed with last week's episodes at all. Don't think I can be bothered to watch this week. Hopefully someone will post on here if anything interesting happens! I'll get my Welsh fix by listening to Terry Griffiths commentate on the snooker instead!

There's a very young looking Nicholas McGaughey (who played Brandon Monk in PYC) on Y Glas, the current Wednesday drama on S4C, which was first broadcast in 1997. In the same programme is a policewoman called Siân, who is played by the actor who plays Siân in Gwaith /Cartref. She looks very different, I wouldn't have recognised her had her voice not sounded just the same.

That's interesting I might check it out. I am missing Gwaith/Cartref. This year's was one of the best series.

Gethin? Likely confused by something Ffion does. Ffion's behavior confuses me.

Ffion and Jinx's storyline just changed too much. They got together so that Ffion could keep Arwen away from her ex-husband. That storyline was supposed to be contest for custody of Arwen and between two men who had feelings for Ffion. Then they completely changed the storyline by making Macs the father. The original storyline was great the 2.0 version was terrible and anticlimactic. I haven't forgiven the writers yet.

Well just saw yesterday's and now I think there could be some significance to Gethin being jealous of Iolo and William afterall. But I have a sinking suspicion it might involve William's work as a cop and go in a disturbing direction. I hope not.

What happened?

At any rate, it would be weird for Gethin to have a thing for Iolo now. They should have told that story years ago when he and Iolo were really close after the accident. Then it would have made sense. Now, no, especially given that Gethin is into Ffion.

Maybe he's just jealous of Iolo being happy. Or like you say, it's about his being a cop.

What disturbing direction do you think this could be going in?

Iolo and Gethin were talking about William leaving abruptly. Gethin said William was already upset and it wasn't his fault. Iolo went to see William and apparently something happed at work that was very disturbing that William can't forget. Something he can't tell Iolo about.

I don't think its Garry or Sion and their stealing. Could be murder or suicide, but seems like Gethin is going be involved in this storyline. They were talking about Gethin's son in Monday's episode as well. If William is investigating something to do with child sexual abuse or child pornography Gethin being in this storyline makes a lot of sense.

Monday. Apparently William saw a dead body of a man who died alone with no one to claim his body. He was worried that might happen to him. Sort of stupid, I don't really think that's a big worry of people with children. Usually only a concern of the single and childless.

Yeah, I have to say William's explanation just didn't ring true for me at all. I don't think parents of small children think much about not having family to care for them in their old age. Elder care is the job of grown children most of the time.

I thought Gethin's jealousy over Iolo's new relationship was really over the top.

Gethin's obvious solution to breaking up Ffion and Jinx who are staying together for the sake of kids is to contact Arwen's bio father. Macs is supposed to be in Cardiff not too far away. Given all the lying that went into the paternity determination that would cause a rift between Jinx and Ffion. Too bad we can't see Gethin do the obvious, it would make more sense than trying to break up Iolo and William.
