“Same with Lou. I had to put the sound down and fast forward because I don’t get any entertainment from brutality.”;
A second said: “This show is more violent and full of misery than most crime thrillers.”;
Another added: “Can’t forget about Mason too but to be honest the worst one was Rob beating Lisa up in the car, I thought that one was sickening to watch.”;
A fourth commented: “I thought the blood shot with it dripping through the metal grated floor a bit much for a soap.
“Like something out of a slasher movie.”;
The storyline has led to the exit of actor Joe Layton as he finished his planned stint as Mick on the show.
