I thought he worked as a scaffolder for a company rather than owning the company but might have got that wrong... wish Theo would get a decent haircut .. the curly bit is particularly irritating...

He owns his own scaffolding firm - Silverton Scaffolding. Though where it is based exactly is another matter!

It appears that Costello is a bent copper and Becky knows it or is involved in that as well...I never took to DS Swain or her daughter, this storyline is not changing my mind

Still do not understand why he is fitting up Betsy, this seems to be as a result off the video going on line. But it is involving more people and drawing attention to her. Unless it is to exert pressure on Becky to disappear. I do not mind Betsy so much but the two mothers ........

Sorry to quote my own post, but the thought has just occurred to me that perhaps he commutes to work. Gasp! Shock! Horror!

There is a Silverton village in Devon, near Exeter, so he would definitely need a car if he is commuting from there.

Thinking about Tim, did he say he was at school and told his real age?
If not then she may not have been guilty of any crime.
I knew a lad at school who was so mature for his age, very tall, strong and had facial hair, he used to brag he could get into night clubs, he was 15!!!

He said he was 14 and she was 20+ at the time, which is why Sally keeps insisting he was a child and was abused...

Not quite sure what you are getting at? Do you mean he was actually older than 16? Because if he was only 14, it doesn't mature how "mature" he was for his age, she still committed a crime.

No, I meant did Tim let her know he was underr age, if so she was old enough to know better, but I can't remember him saying that he had told her he was 14.
Lots of under 16 used to have sex whilst at school, lads would brag who they had, so What I'm getting at is. Maybe he didn't tell her, which in that case, he might have looked mature for his age, and she didn't know?
You get me now!

He said he was 14 at the time, but I do think it was made clear if she knew his age. If they lived near to each other she could have known he was still at school. If she though he was 16, I suppose it could be said she unknowingly committed a crime.

I know when it became public, he was not embarrassed and was bragging he was 14, he seemed rather proud he "bagged" this older woman.
My point was, she may not have known he was 14 and therefore did nothing wrong. I can't remember at any time she mentioned his age?
I think you get me:-)
