I was thinking the same thing this morning. I have a feeling they will make it their xmas story as the one they had originally planned (Kats baby snatch) had to be abolished.
I do hate it when they drag it out so long. It gets boring.
It's the same as the murder story line in Holyoakes. That got boring 6 months ago.
I would like someone to hire a hitman and get rid of the Doctor, Michael Moon, Phil, Vanessa's hair and Ben in one go (an explosion maybe?) and start some new and interesting plotlines - it's just so gloomy now!
