[Son of Cain]

Definitely something wrong with Moira.

I doubt Caleb and Ruby will be much of a match for Kim.

I am now thinking a brain tumour.

Seems a bit callous, ruining Jimmy's life to get back at Kim.

I agree. It's the Tate genes at work.

Looking back at Jimmy's history in the haulage business, it might be time for him to get out of it. I don't think there has ever been a time when everything ran smooth for him. It seems there has always some chaos, financial crisis, or devious partner trying to grind him into the dust.

Things must have been pretty desperate for him to have to hire Rodney as a driver.

Not another cancer storyline....could be menopause? There has been a lot of talk about women suffering and needing time off work... would be interesting to demonstrate that in a soap, I think

I agree up to a point, he's not very good at it. But reporting him as Caleb did and ruining his business to get at someone else is pretty despicable.
It was started by him and his brothers, Matt and Carl along with dad Tom King. Carl being the dad of Belle's horrible husband Tom.

My first thought was menopause- but they have not long done that with Bernice. Rhona also had an early menopause and I seem to member so did Nicola (maybe misremembering here). Then we had Cathy with PDMM, although all women of certain age go through the menopause,--- I think this would be a bit repetitious. The way Moira seems to have no memory of things she has done makes me think it is a brain tumour. Has she had a fall or been kicked by a cow recently?

Not sure what the writers will come up with for this storyline. I read somewhere that it could be early onset dementia, but surely they are already doing a dementia storyline with Eric Pollard.

Eric has Parkinsons, not dementia, Ashley had early dementia..
