What has jinx gone
Apparently according to a video on PYC's Facebook page. I can't say that I am surprised the actor wanted to leave. They gave him nothing to do for the last year. Jinx deserved a better storyline than he got.

It just makes the storyline about baby Arwen that's been bad and unbelievable worse. I guess I am supposed to believe that everyone is OK with that child's paternity situation. They can try to sell that, but no way will I ever believe it. Too far removed from normal human behavior. I think they had time to come up with a better ending and once again they didn't. I would love to get into the heads of these writers and ask them why they end storylines the way they do.

I think that they were in it this week. Maybe Thursday. To tell the truth I haven't really been watching this as regularly for a bit.

I know what you mean sderr. Hubby has stopped watching PYC altogether. I just told him about Jinx, and he said he isn`t surprised.
So did Mark (Jinx) jump or was he pushed?

I don't know but if I were to guess I would think he left for better roles elsewhere. Jinx's didn't have much to do in the last year. I can't blame Mark for wanting to do something better.

How very true sderr.
I hope Mark gets plenty of work, and I wish him all the best.

So Jinx is done, huh? Wonder what that means for Kelly? I haven't watched in a couple of weeks because we've only had very brief scenes with Iolo, but that was a good scene with Jinx telling Kelly was over and leaving. That final scene where he walked down the street was sad. TBH, I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did given how poorly he was written for.

Same I have really watched in a couple of weeks. The actress who plays Kelly is good though. I've seen her in another drama with darker hair and a better wardrobe be just terrific. So they can do a lot with the actress if they want to write good material for her.

I think they should have killed off Jinx. It can be an over used trope in a soap and I know they want to leave the door open for Mark Flanagan to come back but it would have made more sense. The solid decent family man he was playing in the last 3 years would not have abandoned his child to be raised by Gethin. And what is the likelihood that Mark would actually want to come back to play Jinx? This is one time where I have to say I think the actor is better off not being on this soap.

The names in this photo are not very clear but it looks to me like no.1 is Mark Flanagan (Jinx). If I'm right then it looks like he will be in the second series of 35Diwrnod https://twitter.com/35_dau/status/610378660554653696

Thanks Malwen, looks very cool. Appears leaving PYC was the right decision for Mark.

No problem. I wonder if they will revisit Arwen's paternity. I think the only way that it makes sense for neither Jinx, Macs or the White's to care that who raises Arwen is for her biological father to be definitively proven to be a man who wanted a child.

Yeah, and it doesn't look like Gethin will be any help at all.

Ok so I've been thinking I know that PYC has money problems but does it make any sense that Iolo wouldn't call Macs who lives in Cardiff to tell him about Jinx? He would rather let Gethin take care of this situation?
Also what's up with William going to London? Is that a storyline really. It just looks like don't have enough money to their a storylines properly.

Me too! Great acting though.

Macs needs to return. I'm still appalled at his awful exit (and that's before the Christmas episode!)

Isn't Simon going to go on paternity leave at some point? Didn't someone say that his wife was pregnant?

I'm only 2 eps behind now but is it bad that I've only recently realised that we haven't seen Sion and Britt in about 2 months?
