Emmerdale - Current Episode Discussion - III

[Son of Cain]

Of course Cathy was to blame for the events that LED UP to the death of Heath, but Angel was the one driving at the time of the death, as she has admitted.

I would say that Cathy was mostly to blame for Heath's death. It was not Angel's idea to take the car, it was not her who stole the keys. Bob is just relieved that Cathy was not driving and is now acting like she is not to blame. I can understand Cathy feeling she is not to blame, as she is in denial. But Bob should still be recognizing her part in the crash, and her responsibility for it. But Bob has never been someone who thinks thing through, he has always been someone that acts impulsively, without any deep thought. We still do not know why Angel was driving, or if it was her idea to do so. I do hope they explain this, and not just leave it that she was driving. I find it totally unrealistic that neither Nicola or Jimmy have asked her why.
