I've just caught up. An outstanding set of episodes. That 8pm Thursday episode in particular was fantastic. With regards to Natasha shooting Mark, I think it was a sudden burst of anger that prompted her to shoot him. The way he was talking after he gave the gun to her, I just knew she was going to lash out. I think Natasha was so hurt and no longer wanted to be controlled by Mark and be under his thumb. She was with him for such a long time, the lies he told were massive and the way he just acted as if he had a right to call the shots and take charge of the family, after everything he did - I think that made Natasha angry. She wants to protect and do best by her family and she didn't want Mark hindering her, by pretending he could go back and play happy families. I thought that scene in the woods was one of the best.

Mark's acting was on the dodgy side but apart from that, I completely disagree with the bad acting. Amanda's scenes on Friday with Maisie, Nathan and Will were purely superb. She was so so convincing. Maisie and Ryan's reactions were also realistic and credible.

Overall, a great week of performances and intense drama in the Dales.

I think anyone who criticises Nathan's acting would be being a bit unfair. His performance was just understated which doesn't equate to bad acting. You could see his anger and hurt underneath and I thought his understated performance was effective.

In contrast, Maisie's hysteria was also well done. I think the writers were successful in showing the different reactions to this kind of news that can destroy a family.

How do you think you would feel if you discovered the man you were fooling about with in the bedroom was your brother

I'm sorry but her acting was terrible even Hollyoaks have actresses that could do better

I loved Natasha going off on her two bratty children

I thought maisie was very good, (obviously im in the minority), but i think her hysterics were totally acceptable considering if the argument between faye/mark/natasha had happened 30 mins later, she would have just commited incest.

I thought she was very good, but throwing herself across the breakfast bar seemed a little OTT and looked comcial. However, we all react differently and it was a reaction that in reality we all might do.

I think Maisie still wants to jump Ryan's bones she is jealous he is staying at Katie's place

I can wait for Katie to discover the truth about Maisie and Ryan i hope its soon

Absolutely, but you can't switch off your feelings just like that, can you. Wonder what Katie will do when she finds out about Maisie and Ryan

Debbie looks absolutely huge now in certain scenes. Wonder how much longer she'll be there and how Charlie will leave for her maternity leave
