But, I can say I totally agree about a certain detachment to these characters - I find them, and their stories, fascinating and I devour their stories BUT if one of them is killed off, it's not the end of the world.<br /><br />Loved the image of Beth cackling over her keyboard as she kills characters left and right!<br /><br />Surprised by the Chris love - right now, he's very suspicious!

The majority of the population would not have been happy with that ending though.
