Don't know if anyone ever mentioned this here and even the newspapers only mentioned it shortly without using the word "suicide", but the cause of death WAS suicide, a gunshot wound to the head, no foul play.

Wasn't he a DDP, I seem to recall?

If so, that person deserved three more points, I guess. Ah well...

 You learn something every day. I never knew Holt was related to Derbyshire. Probably explains why she retired from Corrie to help care for her husband.

Nah. He is okay according to BBC Radio 5. The dogs are her family. If they end up in tins of whiskas that will be the story.

Total bullshit post by me. The dogwalker survived and so did the dogs. Apologies.

She was asked about as a DDP pick but decided against.
