Duncan, at the end of the day, is a reporter. All he said last night was that it's a possibility, he wasn't confirming or denying it, he just said it was a possibility - which really, it is, it's a soap.
I think it's happening too often and in the end it means half the stuff we expect doesn't happen or not at all like we expect. Best not to take everything he says to heart or make assumptions based on his tweets all the time.
