That explains a lot. I thought it has improved in the last few weeks, so hopefully we aren't going to have to suffer Eastenders type stories.

I agree whirley, I can't think what else it could be. She was obviously a bit the worse for drink which he was forcing on her; he wants a baby, soon, and Rob is determined to get what he wants. Not sure what he's done will be enough to open her eyes though. He'll probably talk her round. I'm still not convinced that the baby Jess had isn't his either. Oh well Pat's happy he's joined the family;-))
I'm afraid I interpreted her crying as the result of much worse. He got her drunk on purpose, and he didn't need to rape her, she loves him so much. Perhaps I've got a dirty mind. I hope I'm wrong. He's married her so he's got half of everything, and if she moves out she would lose her inheritance from Peggy. Nasty piece of work.
I'm rather thinking like hellywelly. I've been saying for ages that the next move would be to get her pregnant. Sounds as if she was a bit sozzled, probably wanted to go to sleep, and was 'persuaded' into staying awake and having sex. She'll blame herself, of course, for having had a bit too much to drink and wearing that very alluring dress that her husband couldn't resist and found her so irresistably gorgeous in. ('In which her husband found her so irrestably gorgeous', for any pedants - I include myself.)
Somewhere inside herself she is thinking that the sex was wrong at the time, but that small thought will be overrun by all the flowers, wonderful words etc. - until she is preggers and he hits Henry. Well, that's my take on it.

I too felt that there was an element of forcing involved, on the sofa. But, to be, honest Helen is such a drama queen, its not always easy to tell.
Its quite clear what Rob is trying to do. He is attempting to embed himself into the family structure to such an extent, that he will be ready to "take over" when the time comes. The old Tom would have seen through him by now, but this new Tom just doesn't have the same fire in him...in fact his character is totally different. I think the scriptwriters have slipped up there...they needed a new actor but not a new Tom.
There have been quite a few instances of Robs mask slipping. Remember Shula witnessing the assault on the hunt protester ? And Shula is nobodies fool. I thought he was unspeakably rude to Jim at the Opera but nobody else seemed to notice or care....strange !
Pip was never going to leave home...I could have predicted that months ago, as to where she is going to live...in the barn perhaps, as that is the only place left, or maybe Brickyard Cottage.
Come to think of it, why couldn't one of her Grandmothers have lived in Brickyard Cottage...their new cow man won't need it now will ?

Hoppy...I think we are building up to a huge climax here....probably coming to a head at Xmas or perhaps New Year. ( favourite time for family rows, if my lot are anything to go by ! )
My bet is that he is going to give Henry a wallop !
The old adage that you can't fool all of the people all of the time is going to come true. I still think it was odd that nobody batted an eyelid when he was super rude to Jim at the Opera. It isn't like Linda to let something like that pass her by !

And the Kenton/David storyline is getting good now too
I was hoping for a bit of a bust up last night but it might be tonight instead
As for Helen - I did not think she seemed to need too much coaxing so her reaction in the morning was a little OTT but i will now listen again to that episode
Hats off to the actor playing Rob though - what a creep

Delicately put Ric.ror. You've managed to say the unsayable. But wouldn't she have gone ROOOOOOOOOOOB!!!
Regarding the Jim episode, Mikey I think everyone was embarrassed and moved on quickly to defuse the situation. Of course Jim is too much of a gentleman to retaliate but I'd love for Rob to say it to someone who would but then he's crafty like that. Playing the part brilliantly though.
