The BBC drama aired its last episode of Happy Valley, but parts of the story felt rushed and undeveloped...
Sally Wainwright's beloved BBC drama has achieved what many popular shows do not: a satisfying finale that bettered our high expectations.
This was just one of the things that her husband, Rob Hepworth, used to terrorise her. When he called the police on his own wife to shop her for having illegal diazepam in the house, Sergeant Cawood, always sharp as a pin, sussed what was going on in an instant: bruising to Joanna's arms; a lock on the fridge; letting Rob speak for her. Joanna was in an abusive and coercive relationship.
It was left to the show's final few minutes before it was revealed by way of some throwaway dialogue that Rob Hepworth was to be charged – but not for crimes against his wife. He may not have actually killed her, but heconfessed that there'd been a history of violence in their relationship, to the point of leaving a blood-soaked fingerprint on their kitchen furniture.
