He won't have a job so maybe going back to Portsmouth and re-join Navy :)
But to leave Simon againQuote:

I personally used to like Rob, and I hate the whole storyline and the fact that it had to be Rob who killed her. I've always liked Peter(when he was happy with Carla, I liked him best-would have rather watched them that way and seen Carla as a mom). I used to like Tina too, up until she got involved with Peter and became a 'bunny boiler'. She used to be nice and cool. So I haven't liked any of this. I much rather would have seen Tracy as a killer-I wouldn't have missed her.
Thought Roy was striding out to re-visit "Lillian" the fortune teller at one point on the Blackpool trip Hayley's son involved with the burglary at Roys Rolls ?
Cruel teenagers. I remember when i was a kid i kept all my dolls in boxes and took them out to play for short periods so they did'nt get ruined. Burglars took every single one. I was so shocked.
....
Awww, I am so sorry - yes, people can be so cruel .. burglars steal some much cherished memories at times which can never be replaced ....:(Quote:

Audrey getting all hot and bothered over Luke was funny. I don't blame her as he's rather lovely. Decent actor too too.
The trial scenes were suspenseful with plenty of twists and turns. It's to Chris Gascoyne's credit that I can't help liking Peter no matter how badly he behaves. The barristers and judge were excellent too. It's unusual to see a judge summing up in a soap as far as I can recall. I don't know what my verdict would be if i were on that jury as there's a lot of circumstantial evidence against Peter with only the fact that he told Carla all the lurid details of the affair in his favour. Will that be enough to put doubts in the jury's minds?
What's everyone's best guess at the verdict? Mine is that he'll be found guilty.
Same here, Lillian and Roy would have been cracking. Agree again the group of youths seem a bit obvious, and I guess the link with the storyline re Hayley, remembered what an obnoxious git the son was.sort of thing he would do. Complete speculation. The young lass on the jury seemed to accept Peters' account,but like you I think he will be found guilty . I don't think either of us should place any bets, my track record on these things is poor to say the least.
Yeah, he was a complete monster. :angry:Quote:

2 guilty to 1 not guilty so far.
Post made by Dazzle earlier , quote " The barristers and judge were excellent too. It's unusual to see a judge summing up in a soap as far as I can recall." It is strange, Could a third possible outcome be a hung jury and re-trial ?
The judge did instruct the jury to have a unanimous verdict though .....
I think if the jury fail to unanimously agree ,the judge may order a retrial, particularly for a murder case. Again only speculation ,may be a reason for such a detailed summary by the judge ,helps keep us viewers content if it happens.Quote:

You keep on ranting away, ill-founded or not .. I think this is what forums are about, it is how we learn about the programmes and of course, each other, so exciting :D
I'm happy to keep ranting away for as long my fellow Soapboarders can put up with me lol. :ninja: :DQuote:

I haven't seen the trailer, but the fact that Peter looks shocked at the verdict reaffirms the feeling I have that he'll be found guilty. Or, as Glen says, it could be declared a mistrial and he'll have to go through the whole thing again. In the run up to the trial, and during most of it, he's seemed confident he'll be found not guilty to me.Quote:

But you're a very polite and considerate ranter, Dazzle. I can cope with any amount of your ranting. It's usually informative as well as ranty. (Is that a word?) Anyway, you just keep ranting away if that's how you feel!Quote:

My other half said in a trial for murder it has to be unanimous,Quote:

Yes, I know it has to be unanimous, but when else in all the soap trials we've had do we get to see the judge summing up and specially making that point? There's always a reason for these things in Soapland.
The judge would not let them out very quickly if they do not reach an agreement. Very unlikely the agreement is that they are undecided then
That is not necessarily the case. Yes, the Judge will urge them to reach a verdict, but, if even after as short a period as a day, the foreman says that in his/her opinion they have no chance of reaching a verdict then the judge could declare a retrial. For example, it could be a 6-6 which doesn't change at all during the day after due consideration and deliberation. It's unusual but has happened.
Guilty!! :(
Oh no i missed it!
