possibly, but then we wouldn't have had last nights episode!

Rubbish! Last night's episode would be as was but a body is never found, raising fears Richard managed to escape.

Not sure about that. As far as I was aware Granada have filmed scenes of Richards funeral with only Archie & Gail there.

Yup, he's definately a goner, here's the pic in the bodybag from Corrie.net :

And here's what the insider has to say :

“There’s no coming back for him, after killing his first wife Patricia, leaving Duggie for dead, murdering Maxine and bashing Emily on the head. “Never have the powers that be released such a graphic picture following the death of a character. “But the interest generated by the Tricky Dicky storyline has been so enormous that the production team felt the viewers should see the full gory ending. “The scenes will horrify Corrie fans.”

Can anyone say what those things are on his face?

I think I can offer a logical explanation to the layout quandry.

I believe the building regulations in force for the time that the Platts house was built would prevent a direct connection between the kitchen and the garage. Hence consider a joining corridor and/or utility room - this gives the ability to rotate the direction of the doors.

LOL You could be right!

The Funeral is on the 24th March by the way, which of course is a Monday!

See the online Bradford Telegraph and Argus website:http://www.thisisbradford.co.uk/bradford__district/bradford/news/jackshepherd1.html for an interview with local West Yorkshire lad Jack P Shepherd who of course plays David Platt.

He said basically what's in this article when he was on Calendar on wednesday as well, I expect he may have appeared on This Morning or GMTV or something like that as well!

There is one element of the Richard storyline that remains unsolved. What happened to Charlotte, Patricia's nosy friend? She knew something was up and he was anxious to get rid of her. After appearing in a car with Richard, she was never seen again. He told Gail "I don't think she'll be bothering us again!" or similar. Will it emerge that Charlotte was victim no.4?

Maybe Charlotte is in the Hillmans deep freeze. Or, how about this for a plotline. Richard chopped Charlotte up into lots of little pieces and put her in with Fred Elliots diced pork. It could turn out that the whole of the Street have been eating Charlotte in Betty's Hot Pot.

Or am I just being silly now ? Laughing

Maybe she's in Freshco's deep freeze next to Anne Malone!

I can't remember that episode at all when Charlotte was last in it, was there any obvious clues?


Apparantly tommorow's episode is like a mini-movie rather than a normal episode, I can't wait, no really I can't!

Poor richard, he only did it cos he loved them!!
