Happy Valley Theories May Contain Spoilers - Do Not Read If You Are Not Up To Date

[Barmaid]

Anyone want to put forward their theory as to how it all ends?

[smurfchops]

I thought they would somehow through DNA find out that Tommy wasn’t Ryan’s dad after all, but I was a bit let down by the ending.

[gness]

I'm wondering, Sharon if the couple of loose ends may be leading somewhere.

[Barsel]

Gness, which loose ends do you mean? Were you thinking perhaps about Neil?
I was hoping we might have seen a date with Catherine and Nev or a reconciliation between Catherine and her ex-husband.
Just 'cos I'm a sucker for a happy romantic ending.

[ladybirder]

I thought it was a good ending. All I really wanted to know was what happened to Catherine and TLR. The rest were an irrelevance for me.

[gness]

Just how the Joanna/Faisal/Rob situation ended. Not major to the series. I'm just nosey. :-)

[Stargazer]

too many red herrings with unsatisfactory conclusions or none at all. What was that Alison character in it for?

[ladybirder]

The ending has an excellent review in the DM.

// Happy Valley provided one of the greatest drama finales ever seen on British television; as moving and unexpected as it was thrilling and thought-provoking, with moments of choking emotion as well as flashes of humour. \\

Well he was stabbed, overdosed and turned into a ball of fire, but I got a sneaky feeling he might just survive.

[gness]

Did he Windy?

[Zacs-Master]

No.

[goodgoalie]

He was 'in a coma'.

[windywillow]

He was in with a chance for a little while (in a coma) but died in hospital. I almost felt sorry for him in the end. :0/

[Zacs-Master]

Catherine got a text when she was stood by her daughters grave to say TLR had died.

Does nobody pay any attention?

[gness]

Did you see the text message about TLR?

[Ken4155]

I thought it an excellent finish. No loose ends, really, and the whole story put to bed and tucked well in.
May she enjoy her well-earned retirement :-)

[gness]

Snap, Zacs.

[windywillow]

I saw the text message.

[Zacs-Master]

Did anyone else think the ‘look’ of this last episode was different to the others. Filmed in a different format and slightly ‘sterile’ in some scenes?

[Cloverjo]

But there are loose ends.
What happens to Joanna’s daughters? Do they grow up to be wrong uns? Does Poppy ever take her coat off? So much more to explore.

[windywillow]

My "stabbed, overdosed and turned into a ball of fire, but I got a sneaky feeling he might just survive" comment was supposed to be humorous. I guess it fell flat.
