Remind me to take a metal bar into school, incase anyone threatens me!

They were never going to let Tina depart quietly. They had to have a sensational murder plot and an even more over the top miscarriage of justice storyline.

Now we are meant to forget with the constant mentions of how wonderful she was and her "best friend" Steph milking it for all its worth (loved Norris' reference to this on Monday).

The thing that really annoys me about this story is that Rob settled in and was doing well with his interactions with Carla, but tbtb had to ruin it with making him a killer. Now he'll leave and we have to contend to more "badboys" coming into the show. Plus it was stupid how Peter was suddenly interested in Tina despite not having anything to do with her for 5 years.

Quite, Mel - oh yes, ahem to those them, there highly memorable hairdryers.

Stolen, indeed no less - them there hairdryers which provided quite a motive, incentive and / or reason for Slayer Rob to kill.

Typical gobby mare, she brought it on herself!

Protecting Carla was silly too as Rob hates Peter so should have wanted her to find out about the affair. He couldn't have known that it would lead to a miscarriage. Not to mention the inconsistencies in their relationship. One minute he and Tracy are ripping her off the next he's the doting brother.”

Both these quotes show what a stupid storyline the whole thing has been, it was orchestrated in a very ammateur manner.

The red mist came over him. At first when she got up he seemed like he wanted to help her, then she gobbed off at him he got angry and hit her. Anyone would have been tempted

Plus of course Lipsy needed a new model!

As I recall, he more or less said : "promise not to tell, or I'll kill you". Hardly a difficult choice, even if you suspected he didn't mean it.

The fall was accidental, the murder by coshing was intentional.
