I would have liked him to have hung around long enough on the show to have had his first haircut, at least. The writers could have made this romance into far more than what they've given us. Very disappointing.”

But yes, it is disappointing. Horribly underwritten. Maybe he was only ever meant to be Emma bridge-fodder.

Nope, you just think more than an ED storyliner - who mainly seem not to think at all. I also thought Kasim might have seen Emma and therefore actually have a point. That would've been ace.

OH GOODIE!

FFS. Definitely one to miss. The show really hates Finn, don't they? Shame. In fact I'm starting to think they hate me as well.

I also think too much about these things.
I'm sure he'll be working at the factory within two weeks, assuming Emma hasn't killed him. He feels a bit like Alex, who came on the show, slept around a bit, was never given much of a backstory, then got offed by a serial killer. Poor Alex.”

Good parallel actually. No point getting too interested in him (if that were even possible) if he's just going to be offed. Specially as the storyliners have put absolutely zero effort into the whole thing.
