I totally get Lorraine, and what is so bloody strange about a woman having a teddy anyway.

She could have gone into a sulk and been nasty about Pat Sharp, surprisingly she blamed herself for being strange and rubbing people up the wrong way, and Tedward was to be banished to the case to save him from the furnace. Lorraine doesn't like an issue and she removes it by backing down.

Lorraine you do not rub people the wroong way, you merely have people scratching their heads because you are so bloody nice.(Pat Sharp included)

Note after Tedwardgate, Lorraine was the first to congratulate Pat on getting the task, what a girl.
