However the casting of Ben has been a disaster, he's absolutely terrible and the Halfway storyline feels so shoehorned in to recreate the Robron couple and please its worshippers. Stuart staying around too, he's a rapist and a killer and they expect us to forgive and forget?
Turns out you were right, about Ben and the state of the show back then. We (some of us) used to like to pretend that 2019 was good because in comparison to 2011-13, 2015-18 and 2020/21 it kinda was, still, but it’s still part of the overall worst era in the show’s history. Nothing from 2016 to 2021 was really that good and people can say that with their chests now-that Clenshaw’s catapulted us into a much better era (2022-present). 2019 was utter garbage.
