However, I DO realise that it's only a soap and that the characters aren't real people! The actors do a fantastic job and the emotions they arouse are very real - it's a credit to them that they can have this effect on people. As much as I feel some of the characters are totally unlikeable, it's sensible to keep a grip on reality and realise they are really not real people! Roll on the next episode!

I think whoever Cora's daughter will be may well be black, and this was why she gave her up as back then it was frowned upon to have this happen.

Refusing to help Jay when he ows him big time, and - those sweaty underarms EWWWWWW!:( Somebody, give Billy a fresh shirt and a good deodorant - quick!

At 22nd Aug 2012, Bigsmile76 wrote:philmitchell1 : Interesting! I am pretty sure that Tanya found her elder sister's birth certificate for a reason. The said sister is out there somewhere, but it's not Sharon, she is too young to be "Ava" and her mothers, both real and adopted, are known, and neither of them is Cora. Could it actually be Shirley? Shirley is as old as "Ava" would be and we don't know much about her childhood or her past. Will she lose one family (the Mitchells) to find another one(Cora and Tanya?)

At 22nd Aug 2012, monalisa wrote:bigsmilie what did you think of the break up scene? i thought it proved once again phil loves her. what he said to sharon was so telling "but she didnt ask for this, she doesnt deserve this" "that just makes it worse" it would only make it worse for him if he loved her too. he's giving her an awful lot of mixed signals over the next few weeks. he's been doing that for 4 years. id find it very boring and predictable if it turned out he never loved her.
i thought it could be shirley but the dates still dont add up

At 23rd Aug 2012, Bigsmile76 wrote:Monalisa, I've always said Phil does care about Shirley, but some guys know how to treat a woman right, and some don't. Phil belongs to the second group. And Shirley is a middle aged woman who never became a grown up. That is another reason why she was such close friends with Hev, who really was just a big good child inside. And that is also the reason why she can't have a mature, happy relationship and sticks with Phil instead. Also, Shirley is 47/48, and "Ava" is the same age if she is alive (and I think she is).
