Masterclass in sass

Catherine Cawood’s sassiest one-liners in series two

  • Share

Well that was brilliant!

10 things we learned from the final episode


  • Share

Oh, we did!

  • Share

That's that

Nice parallel with the end of series one, only the whole family are on the walk, instead of just Catherine.

But instead of looking relieved, content, like she was at the end of series one, she looks worried. About Ryan. To be continued…

  • Share

Does Catherine want to tell Ryan everything?

It’s playing on her mind… but how could she even begin?

  • Share

Alyion had a secret.

And god, what an awful one. Simultaneously Daryl’s mother and sister after being abused by her dad. It explains the slight tension in their relationship, looking back.

  • Share

Could this be a teaser for a third series?

  • Share

Oh god the letter

I’d forgotten about Ryan’s little letter writing secret. This is bad. He has his address now… surely he isn’t daft enough to write back?

  • Share

Alison’s still alive.

And looks just as broken as Catherine. Maybe that’s why Catherine visited - one grieving mother to another. She’s a caring soul.

  • Share

Tommy’s got a collection.

Three other fiancees! He has been busy. Poor Frances. I think Catherine was genuine in her visit - she just wants to help the poor cow leave him.

  • Share

Agreed!

  • Share

Tommy’s been cut off

And of course he goes absolutely mental.Who will he manipulate now?

Bit satisfying though.

  • Share

Catherine looks broken

“What a sh*t week!”

You tell it sister. Poor Catherine, she’s waltzed straight into the middle of every bit of drama in this finale.

  • Share

Did you expect that?

  • Share

OH WHAT

Just when I thought Catherine was talking him down, bang, off the wall John goes onto a van bonnet. That poor driver. So John’s gone. I never thought he’d do it.

  • Share

John can negotiate with himself

And is now telling Catherine how to talk him down… Happy Valley is a masterclass in dark comedy.

  • Share

"Just people you’ve had on your phone for years!"

We’ve all got a few of those…

  • Share

I've seen HUNDREDS of people tweeting just this!

  • Share

He's on the wall!

Is this really how it’s going to end?

“You’re just going to break your legs and make a mess.”

And of course it’s right opposite the police station…

  • Share

"Do not follow!"

C’mon, Mike, do you know who you’re talking to?

Of course Catherine is going to chase him. It wouldn’t be Happy Valley if she didn;t.

Go on Catherine!

Where on earth is John going to go?

  • Share

"HANDBRAKE!"

Catherine has chosen the rubbishest sidekick ever.

  • Share

He’s legging it!

Oh god, now they know he’s guilty... And of course Catherine’s the one to chase him. Where on earth are you going to go Wadsworth?

  • Share

Curtains for John!

  • Share

It’s over

With two words from Graham: John Wadsworth…

  • Share

It’s Amanda’s Graham!

Graham from Mirfield, come on down! And he and Amanda have joined the dots about John and Vicky...

  • Share

No flies on Ann

She has to become a detective. She’s never forgets anything, does she?

‘It might be relevant.’ It’s absolutely chuffing relevant!’

  • Share

The net’s closing in…

Two witnesses, potential CCTV...the music’s cranking up again and John looks like he’s about to have a stroke. Will someone answer that phone?!

  • Share

More twists than the Examiner's Hands Off HRI battle bus going up Holme Moss today!

  • Share

He’s going to crack!

He’s like a ticking time bomb at this point. Looks a bit sweaty too…

  • Share

I think we all agree!
