Awww...I'm a bit heartbroken for Les at the moment. No doubt he's been dreading Pam's disgust their whole marriage.

I understand it would be a huge shock to find your partner of decades has kept such a pivotal part of themselves a secret (and worse, shared it with another woman). I hope she comes to terms with it and forgives him - for Christine, if not for Claudette. Apparently, Roger Sloman (Les) has said on Twitter

Spoiler:

that he's been practising with make up etc, so we're going to see Christine. I hope those scenes are done sensitively too, unlike the Y-fronts spectacle! It'd be good to see the revelation's effect on them and their marriage explored in depth.

The Kathy scenes again fell flat for me, especially after such poignant ones between Pam and Les. I can't quite understand why it's not working for me because I was looking forward to her return. Is it the lack of fireworks (Dot and Martin's reaction were extremely low key), is it Kathy behaving so uncharacteristically selfishly? I know she's behaving that way because of Gavin's manipulations, but it's just not working for me at the moment.

At least Dot's words gave Kathy pause for thought.
