I'm sure many people are sick of the Shirley/Dean threads but is anyone else disapponted with Shirley and Dean's relationship now? When Dean came back, I was looking forward to Shirley and Dean reconciling but it looks like their relationship will be torn apart when Shirley knows. Looks like Shirley will find out in 2 weeks time but will she take Dean's side?

They should have never made Dean into a rapist.

They shouldn't have made Shirley Mick's mum tbh.

The rapist plot shouldn't have happened. Rather it should've just been a crush that hid his feelings of loneliness for never having a nuclear family.

Buster is OK, but wouldn't have minded if Dean's biological dad turned out to be David Wicks as was speculated around 2012 when he returned for Pat's last scenes. Would've given Dean a direct blood link to Pat and the Beales and would've given him more family on the Square to interact with.
