I have to say I wasn't the BIGGEST fan of how the mother was portrayed in the final episode - a touch of misogyny going on in the writing there tbqfh - and also Jill going in on her so hard in the final scenes felt really off. Her son had literally JUST died and it didn't feel warranted or cathartic or anything... also didn't feel like what Ritchie would have wanted so made Jill come across as selfish in one of her final scenes? I dunno. Again not sure about the writing. Felt like it was written by someone who is not a parent. Hmm.
I feel like you’ve just completely missed the point here my love

Yeah her son had just died but she didn’t even really know him (not that she was to blame for that though)

Jill was his proper family and his maw had prevented them from being together when he passed away which was done out of nowt but spite so yeah so totally did deserve it

I’d have thrown in a slap for good measure meself
