Charmain being the one to suggest running away with Ron after the argument with her father was interesting but being broke him asking her to steal from her work was cruel but when they end up being caught and Ron is given two and a half years imprisonment while Charmian has a suspended sentence you would of thought she would of left him but giving him a quick flash of her bra was amusing

codebreaker

The guys not giving Peter enough time to get the train moving was unfortunate but the look on Charmain's face when she seen the news was sad as he broke his promise, I cant believe she thought about running leaving the baby with the police but flushing the money down the toilet was for the best and the guy trying to get protection money from her got what he deserved but Ron's first job in prison was ironic as it was sewing mail bags

codebreaker

Charmian affair with Alan was awkward after she becomes pregnant it was obvious she couldn't risk an abortion at a clinic and has to use a back street abortionist which was diabolical and then she gets the news that Ron is planning to escape but then she helps organize the escape by getting money to the gang which was interesting and giving herself a cast iron alibi by taking the children to Whipsnade Zoo was impressive and if she hadn't the kids with her the customs guy wouldn't of let her take the money through

I'm not surprised after that photo in the paper they had to move especially with Sam asking questions about his plastic surgery scars but it's unfortunate they invested all their money in the guest house and now with his face on the TV and no money to all move again he has to go on the run by himself but she should of realised they would come after her as well but the deal she made with the paper to get her kids back before she talked was impressive

codebreaker

Nicky being killed in a car crash was tragic and I don't suppose the ambulance also crashing didn't help and Ron should of been more careful when he talked to the Daily Express journalist to sell him his life story but the reporter tipping off the police was diabolical but having to play happy families with the Brazilian girlfriend by the name of Raimund just so he wasn't extradited back to England was cruel for Charmain and the kids
