OMG, I can't believe it's not butter, you have got to be joking, and hahahahahaha, all passed through my mind on Friday as at longlong last the identity of the father of Heather's baby, George, was revealed to the nation. For those who missed it, prepare yourself and assume the brace position.
It's Darren. That's right, Darren who goes out with Libby and must be about 18 by now but looks a lot younger. This is the person who we, the viewing public, are expected to believe Heather turned to in her hour of need. This is also the entrepreneur who is only impeded from taking over the world because he has to finish his paper round in time for tea.
The point of suspense is that when the mystery is revealed we can feel some sense of relief and/or satisfaction at the resolution. The revelation that Darren is the father makes me think he was chosen by someone who doesn't actually watch the programme, or perhaps his name was picked out of hat in order to keep the storyline as random as possible.
