I still don't believe for one minute that Mick would have a relationship with anyone who believes Linda lied about the rape - let alone someone who harassed and bullied her for months and is still supporting her rapist. If he's willing to forgive the totally unrepentant Shirley (and now Buster too), it sends the message that he accepts their attitude to Linda and their vile behaviour. :wall:
Also, it seems to have been conveniently forgotten that both Shirley and Buster have had some serious doubts about Dean's innocence... http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...sed-630530.gif
I'm guessing Janet was in bed, but I did wonder where Les was. Perhaps reading her a story, or alternatively in the bathroom?
