Legally you can't consent to being strangled, even non-fatally as part of a sex thing.

How many Elizabeths have there been in Coro now? Liz Macdonald, Betty Turpin, Bet Lynch, Betsy Swain...any more?

I dont think they can, shes given a statement and if shes happy to say it was consensual I think that's the end of it

Yes they can.

Nope.

Under section 71 of the Domestic Abuse Act 2021, consent for choking cannot be used as a defence when the action results in GBH (as in Betsy's case) or ABH.

Betsy and Dylan have both admitted to numerous people that the choking happened. It's in Betsy's medical records that blood vessels in her neck were compromised. The police have the evidence they need to take it further, although whether that would happen irl is debatable considering how many cases of deliberate non-consensual violent sexual assault (i.e. grape) don't make it past the initial report.

Thanks for that, I had no idea. Which is why this storyline is important as I doubt a lot would.

In the flashback to the meal/dance I think I saw Betsy take the boys hands and place them on her throat.
I'm not sure tho, I only half watch.

Probably Beth Tinker too
The wiki says Alfred Tatlock's wife was called Bessie as a nn for Elizbeth, and Harry Hewitt's wife was called Lizzie. Neither of them appeared onscreen it seems though.

I wonder if it's the most common character name.

Also we have Bessie Street - which was Silk Street and was "renamed in honour of Charles Hardcastle's mother Elizabeth."
So two Elizabeths for the price of one there.

Lisa is a derivitave of Elizabeth so Lisa Swaine as well.

Can they not leave Betsy alone? She is upset. She has enough going on. They are on about consent, but they not are letting her consent to not pressing charges. There's plenty of time down the line to worry about that, they should be concentrating on getting her as well as she can for the time being.

Lauren giving attitude to the nurse just doing her job! Go and look after Invisible Frankeh!
Another invisikid. What happened to Joel's parents? I thought they'd be all over their only grandson (that we know about)
I just thought that she’d been sexually assaulted before and was making it about her!
Her Dad used her as a reward/gift for his neo-Nazi buddies or that was the impression given

Yes because she offered herself to Roy as that’s apparently what she used to have to do for her Dad’s mates
