I watched it last night and if the reason Faye is doing this is to reel in Mark and then dump him then she is doing it very well and Mark is playing right into her hands, but if on the other hand she genuinely loves him and wants him back then I think she has got doormat written all over her and throwing herself at him that way will only make Mark/Daniel think that he can have his cake and eat it.  How will she feel every time he walks out of the house in the morning.  I think he is in lust with Faye and loves Natasha.  After 24 years of a very happy marriage and being very much in love  with Natasha it is a bit strange that he would want someone back after 27 years and after walking out on her. 

Has the way this is developing got more to do with axing cast members than credibility?

It has already been suggested that Amanda is not happy in the programme and I suggest that Mark's role is going nowhere so perhaps it is time for yet another change at Home Farm.  Maybe the Sharma's parents are going to appear on the scene and buy it.  Now who could we pal Faye up with to keep her and Ryan's roles going in it?

Whatever happens I hope Aaron stays with Paddy.

What about a car crash and they find out that the blood group (Mark/Ryan) does not match.  How do we know that Faye is not lying about Ryan being Mark's son just to get him back and/or bring him down?   

 

Thinking about it, we've never had any concrete proof that Ryan is Mark's son, and maybe Ryan has never seen any photo's of Mark because Faye has shown him photo's of his REAL father.

 

Nope, on mulling it over, I don't think so.

If Ryan had seen photos of Mark/Daniel he would have recognised him as soon as he saw him, after all Faye did!

What I meant, franny, is that we've all been wondering why Ryan has never seen any photo's of his father, (most children at some stage would ask about their dead father and want to know what he was like) but maybe Faye HAS  shown him pics of his father, and the father is NOT Mark.  But as I said earlier, I don't really think this  -  I'm just having fun playing  'what if'.

Faye has also mentioned that Mark's parents were alive when Ryan was growing up so surely they would have had pictures of their son to show him.

Also, in such a small village where everyone keeps tab on everyone else, wouldn't people have noticed Mark keep popping into Faye's house?

But he does sometimes use the back door (which always seems open).   Clever move of his to use his fear of mice (didn't know that before) to get out of staying at the hotel overnight. He didn't tell Faye that though did he?  Also he said he wasn't sleeping with Natasha yet she said to the kids it was nice to  sleep in their own bed so he was lying - no surprise! 

They've completely wrecked brilliant characters!

I actually really liked the Wyldes when they came in! New, fresh, fun, posh, loving (LOL!), community orienated!

I was deeply looking forward to them having some decent stories. Now we are stuck wondering where on Earth this is going!

Awwww.Have just watched the Wyldes on the omnibus all getting on[mouse incident]and having a laugh round the kitchen table.Why not let em stay like this....

Simple Cherryfran -

Happy families + soaps = mutually exclusive

I thought it was hilarious yesterday when Mark had gone outside for about 2 minutes and control freak Nathasha was outside calling for him! 

I agree it will be a big Christmas reveal and Ryan will find out that Mark/Daniel is his father. 

Ughh if this is out Christmas Treat then I seriously dont think I could tune in.

i don't want to have my Christmas ruined and thats no joke
