Did she really, knowingly, abandon Bobby with no means for Morag to get money to her? Highly farcical... even if she was depressed and not thinking straight, Alf would have mentioned this during their reunion. I found this frustrating when she came back, Alf and Martha’s on screen conversation didn’t go into as much depth as I would have liked. Has Ailsa even been mentioned?

I think Ailsa probably most mentioned past oringal character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no depth or detail at all in any of the explanations regarding Martha - it was all very vague. The writers themselves didn't really know what they were doing, they were writing nonsense with no knowledge of the backstory. So they just skimmed over everything. Oh she was sick, ok. That's it all explained, then. Edited April 26, 2020 by Sally Keating 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c120701 Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 I agree, there was more that should have been said onscreen. I think they just wanted to gloss over it all to not alienate new viewers who don’t know Bobby or Ailsa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.laur5 Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 I hope Martha gets some scenes away from Alf and her own storyline’s . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
