Agreed! Thought Pat was great too! She's got such a good heart! And she's always there for anyone who needs help. I wish she was one of my relatives. :)
I reckon it's her boyfriend from Aussie.. and they are covering up as a brother..Quote:

Beats me! It must have been Peggy who invited her, because Honey and Billy didn't want any visitors. It was a bit of a cheek to just assume it's o.k to bring them.Quote:

Luckily her baby was perfectly healthy.

I had the test done as well I'm 35 so it is an risk, we wouldn't have terminated if the test proved a higher risk , but it can help you to adjust, now Honey will not even touch Janet which is very damaging for young babies, they can get emotional stress because of the rejection. I do feel that Honey's reaction isgenuine and played well by Emma Barton, Perry Fenwick gives a rather good performance as well. Well done to the both of them.:clap:
It really was an excellent episode last night, they handled it with love and understanding. Honey and BIllie reacted how any parents would when they find out after the birth, I'm surprised they weren't offered the choice to have an amnio.
I loved it when Pat told Billie she knew, it's good to have someone who isn't judgemental be there to listen to you.
