I really want to talk about yesterday’s episode properly because I don’t think I’ve made a proper episode post since Haunted but all I can actually think about is Teddy (and I’ve been feeling a bit ill).

Generally: I’m gonna fight Patrick (positive comment on the quality of writing) and I’m gonna fight Faith (negative comment on the quality of writing). Having Jan and Jacob together was nice. I enjoy Rash and Tariq’s dynamic (love me some family drama).

I’m preparing to start completely ignoring canon with Teddy and make up my own version of events that will actually make sense and deal with the pretty strong start they got off to last week. Also, I would appreciate if Iain would just stop being the way he is being.

I’ve realised I never posted about this so maybe people don’t know about it, MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE TEDDY STORYLINE: this is going to end up with Teddy joining a fight club (?????????). Milo Clarke did an interview with Metro last week and he mentioned it here:

Which is like… what? I found out about this over a week ago and I still find myself staring at the wall in confusion about it every couple of days. I think I get what they’re trying to do. Like, I think I know the angle they’re going for. BUT IT DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE FOR TEDDY’S CHARACTER!! He would absolutely struggle after last week, so much, but I don’t think it makes any sense for his character or will work with the links that this has to his earlier storylines (those links ARE THERE) for it to be like this. That’s why I’m so annoyed about this storyline, knowing that it’s going that way means it doesn’t feel like they want it to be a story about Teddy (which it could be) as much as they want it to be a (sensationalist) story about SA.
