Well, that's what I'd like to see ... The usual soap-style miscarriage of justice, but with a twist.

Instead of Sam ending up in a regular jail, she ends up in an institution for the criminally-insane.

Then, in a few years' time when the truth is finally out, Sam is released with a pardon. Unfortunately, by this time she is too addled with sedatives and has become so institutionalised, she cannot cope with life on the square.

Incidentally, what I've been wondering is - where the hell is Minty? Isn't he about due to become her knight in shining armour? He would at least be concerned for her wouldn't he?!

Or she could be released and allowed her freedom

Nah, I prefer the asylum idea. At least that way she could leave in style

Not just a shamless bump

But I really want to know - have I missed something? Where is Minty supposed to be?

Good point, I hadn't thought of that. I would have thought minty would have been sitting outside the prison waiting until he could see her.

Yeah, we get weeks of Minty being a 100% pointless character bumming around with Garry and then just when he could be of some use in the Sam storyline he's absolutely nowhere! Stupid imbocelic EE. Axe Minty and Garry if you're not gonna use them!

That is the problem with the huge lack of consistency in characters in todays EE. Suddenly 'Cementa' Mitchell and Minty has nothing concrete (maybe lucky for him ) to do with each other at all and then the next week they could be oh so very close. And look at the big change in Minty's character. He was Grant and Phils friend, and all that came with that, when he arrived and then he is suddenly Mr Cuddlytoy and friend to everyone and even taking part in former mutual 'enemy' Dennis' stag night. It's just the writers taking the grown up audience for fools and going further down the Telletubby childrens soap way and unfortunately there seems to be no end to it in sight yet.

I thought Minty had gotten over his infatuation with Sam, and had moved on to the female mechanic (can't remember her name), which is a storyline so far left in the air and to be continued. Why did she suddenly drop Minty? Clearly she didn't want to. What happened?

I wondered about that myself. Her and Minty seemed to be going somewhere and when she suddenly ditched him, I figured there must be a story there and she will re-emerge. But that was suddenly dropped and doesn't look to be picked up again?

Nah I'm sure Minty's other love interest will be back on the scene again - there was too much tragic face-twitching when she dumped him, apparently against her will.

But even though Minty's moved on, he would be concerned about Sam and do all he could to preserve her reputation (!)

Minty is another of those characters that they changed completely, don't you think? He first appeared as Phil's tough guy I seem to recall. Now he's a pussycat.

I think. Sam is going to get sent to Jail. But not for Den's Murder, but for Knowing about it etc (whats it called)

And Chrissie will get sent down for life properly for his Murder.
