Honestly for years I have stood up for Leanne but she is really starting to get on my nerves!

Whatever happened for better and for worse? Nick is ill and she just walked away from her marriage without even trying!!!!! Kals mother wants to hope he doesn't ever get poorly because Leanne would never stick around to look after him!!!

She has mumped off Peter and now Nick, she hasn't built any business up herself!!!

I thought it was bloody brilliant Nick giving Leanne what for!!

Team Nick all the way!!!!!!

She did try IMO; look back to when he was in hospital and afterwards.
He called time on their marriage, in January; the actor has confirmed this.

Leanne and Nick are joint owners of the bistro; they built it up from The Joinery about four years ago.

I think she did try at first. My respect for her when he was in Hospital and the few weeks after he came home really increased simply because I did think she was taking the 'in Sickness and In Health' vow seriously. She was in a difficult situation when his brain damage caused him to be violent - nobody should have to stay in (or have their child stay in) a home that isn't safe even if the aggression is beyond the attackers control.

But...where my sympathy stops is that she had fallen out of love with Nick (as confirmed by Jane Danson at the time) and wasn't honest about it. yes he ended the marriage but only did it out of love for Leanne because he didn't want to hurt her and it was clear he hoped that when he recovered fully they would reconcile (this was also confirmed by Ben Price at the timme). No way did Nick expect her to move on to a new man (his friend and trainer to boot) within weeks of them splitting and whilst it has only come out in the open now, 6 months after the split, Kal and Leanne's flirtation did begin within weeks back in March.

She should have been honest with him that she no longer loved him (and let's be honest, she didn't love him that much in the first place - she told Stella she was with him because he loved her more than she loved him so he wouldn't be able to hurt her like Peter had) and the marriage was over whether he recovered and got back to being 'old' Nick or not. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she was trying to be kind but I actually think she was just taking the easy way out and happy to be the 'victim' that had been dumped by the husband they'd stood by.

She has declared that half the Bistro is hers which doesn't seem fair to me as she put no investment into it (unless she invested the money she got from the Bookies in which case she is due that back and a share of the profits whilst she worked there). She has declared that she won't back down from the War. Well, she has to expect him to use all ammo available to him in that War - she can't expect him to 'play nice' and now bring her past into it when he feels so utterly betrayed - and that, rightly or wrongly (rightly imo) is what he does feel.

That said, even though I completely understand why Nick is being like this and think Leanne's had it coming to her in some ways after being so high and mightly in recent years (especially during the Peter divorce) I did feel sorry for her during his tirade. She has tried to move on.

I've lost all interest in this tiresome storyline. Leanne and Kal together? You can see the story from here, Kal's Mum taking a disliking to her. Gail all over again. YAWN. As for Nicky, he will always be the little boy that never grows up.

Team Leanne. Nick has quite a history of being vile to his partners, he was even vile to Leanne in their youth getting her to abort the baby. I can't speak for Maria, but he treated Natasha like crap, when discovering she was pregnant wanted nothing to do with her. Now getting in a huff because Leanne has gotten with Kal. Obviously we can put it down to the brain damage, but I wonder how differently Nick would really act if he was healthy.

On Saying that I am sick of the story, we had all this with Nick/Leanne/Peter back in 2012.

She's had it coming a long time

Wasn't impressed with her dumping on the man when he was getting over a mental illness. She didn't end it bravely - she carried on with another man.

Her husband's so-called friend as well! No sympathy from me either.

I'm not a fan of Nick but I hate Leanne more. She's getting what she deserves.

This is all very true. As I said on another thread, Nick has always had a nasty, vengeful streak with all the examples you've mentioned, plus going after his father's killer when he was released from Prison and pretending to be Peter's friend encouraging him to drink to try and get Leanne away from him in 2010. He dumped Eva when he got another sniff of Leanne without a backwards glance as well and really there was no excuse for sleeping with his brothers wife no matter how drunk they were.

Team neither!
I struggle with Nick because I find his character petulant (even before the brain injury). I felt sorry for Leanne tonight though and I think Nick went too far.

Did you miss the episode where he split up with Leanne? Yes it was him who dumped her in the first place. So why are you blaming Leanne? All she did was stick by him and try and he threw it back in her face.

You don't dump someone and expect them to just stay in limbo just incase you want to get together with them again.

When she was still married to Peter? I thought that all 3 of them were in partnership at the start but after Peter found out about Nick and Leanne's affair but decided to stay with her, he and Leanne pulled out their investment leaving Nick as sole owner.

Then when Peter and Leanne split, she went to work at the Bistro as Nick was unhappy about her spending so much time with Peter. I think Peter bought her out of the bookies and she may well have invested that money in the Bistro then which was maybe 2 years ago?

Me too. I couldn't care less. Nick's tirade was so ridiculous and badly acted (I suppose you can't blame him since those were the lines he'd been given). I've never known adults to behave like this.

I'm not absolving Nick here as he was naive or unreasonable in expecting her to stay in limbo after his ending it but I really do believe that his reasons for ending it are very important.

It was made very clear both on screen and in interviews that he ended it because he felt it wasn't fair on Leanne to have to be his carer rather than his wife and to live in fear of his losing his temper and hitting her. He didn't end it because he didn't love her but because he did and he believed she felt the same whereas she'd fallen completely out of love with him and had only been staying out of duty so was relieved to be given an out.

Several times Nick has made comments about how well his recovery is going and that there was hope for him and Leanne once he was better and Leanne has known he still harbored hoped in that area because he's suggested outings and Gail has told her.

Leanne should have made it plain months ago that there was no chance ever and although he might not have reacted well he'd have had time to come around a bit before she got with someone else.

Team Leanne.

He beat her, then when she finally stopped being flinchy around him, told her to leave it wasn't working. Now she's done what he wanted her to do and moved on, he's kicking off. And all this after the fling with Kylie etc and after months of her sticking by his side.
Sod him, and he looks old, wizzend gobby shite. And he needs get a friggin shave, it looks like its been drawn on with a marker and could be wiped off with a towel.
