Its a very sick storyline the way this has been handled and is one of the worst I think in the history of soaps.”
Bobby should never of been Lucy killer.
This was set up as a 12 month who dunnit. Having Bobby as the killer meant that an adult had to have been involved as well. It over complicated the storyline far too much. Jane Beale lugging and dumping Lucy on the common was just terrible. Forensics make the whole thing stupid anyway. There would have been evidence of a cadaver in the Beale front room and also in Jane car boot.
Even then If they had left it as Bobby having done it and the case unsolved for a long period of time then they could just about have got away with it.
BUT having a ever growing list of folks knowing Bobby did it but doing nothing made it ridiculous. Then the Max stuff took it off the scale. How the hell they are going to get out of this without Jane and Ian as a minimum going to jail is unclear. Unless Jane dies of course.
I enjoyed the storyline up to the reveal in live episode.
