I like what I've seen of Paul so far. The actor seems good and he has a genuine charm about him (and good comic timing). That's some sizzling chemistry with Ben too.
I also like that Paul being cast means more screentime for the Cokers (and Billy). I was sure Les wasn't having an affair with Claudette and that there'd be a twist but it seems I was wrong (again!).
I couldn't help but laugh at Sharon's horrified face when she saw the shambles that's her "father" even though I'm disgusted at Phil for such a cruel trick. Just when I think he can't sink any lower!
The writers seriously need to stop Sharon being Phil's doormat once and for all. She needs to go through with her threats to leave so he knows he can't get away with treating her badly again. She's correct that he doesn't see her as an equal and that needs to stop if the writers want viewers on board with the relationship.![]()
