Happy Valley #2

[greenvelvet]

Solid plan Tommy

Ann went in hard I hope she finds some strength like she did just after the incident, she's floundering this time around

I'm glad Catherine didn't suddenly just forgive her sister either, makes more sense. She must have been holding it in for the right time.


The ending is clearly going to be Tommy and Ryan sunning it up in Marbella, Tommy will be laughing manically with a glass of champagne in hand whilst the camera pans out.

Part of my would love that! I love a great psycho (fictional) character!

Cheeky bit of Jason Merrells!

 

[Rippedjeanmaybe]

I thought that when he came out that office never noticed before

Neither had I! I was so shocked at how tiny he looked

 

[LowCalCalzoneZone]

What a creeping, uncomfortable episode. I think it's clever the way they've gradually changed the sort of threat Tommy is - back in S1, he was dangerous because he was physically powerful, and now it's more because he's manipulative

Catherine was vile to pretty much everyone in that episode.

On my rewatch, the kindness of Clare, her lack of judgement. Catherine’s ducked up there.

I felt for Clare there, she is naive and easily swayed but she's not a bad person. Catherine was really nasty to her, totally denigrated her character, but I also really felt for her and her sense of betrayal and of course totally understand why she feels the way she does. I didn't much 'like' Catherine in this episode but to me that's the sign of a well written character, no one is likeable all the time.

I hate how after happy valley, it’s time for me to go to bed and face a full week of whatever work-related tit wigging out about Catherine’s life has distracted me from. Wish good telly wouldn’t air on Sunday nights

Clear that Ryan thought he was a right (reet) loser for getting him in court to show off.

 

[Bobby Chariot]

I think Ryan will save his Granny's life in the finale & kill Tommy

I hope Ryan was recording fit bad dad, or on the phone to Catherine!

Same I’m now in the bleeping depths here

Fit bad dad is bang on

How did Tommy get Ryan’s console username? (soz too old to know what it’s called). Is that something to do with Neil?

 

[mchammerr]

No sorry I’ve gone off Tommy now. Him hiding in a bedroom isn’t the one. Be a real man and walk around like you don’t give a duck. Peak attractiveness was him legging it out the court. Probably still would tho

Ryan told him at one of the visits, probably just as part of a casual conversation. TLR memorised it.

 

[Stillwater]

Ryan told him his username.

He said Ryan had told him and he remembered what it was.

Lol I know what you mean. I thought he looked fit as in the van in the hoodie but the bedroom scenes with a blanket around him desperate to impress Ryan made me cringe. Not sexy. I felt rather disappointed he'd lost his appeal!

 

[Stillwater]

He’s a lowlife. We were just properly shown it first time this series.

The squalor of what he did and how he lived in series 1 is reflected in his current situation.

Catherine not returning Ryan’s “I love you” was on brand but my word, she’s a hard woman (has had to be etc etc).
