Have I missed something?


Why is Karen's surname now Teal(e)?

And where is Rob, I haven't seen him for ages?

reply

It's her maiden name. She reverted back to it after her accident when she didn't want to be with Rob anymore (obviously she's back with him now but for some reason hasn't gone back to using 'Hollins').

I imagine we haven't seen so much of Rob lately as Chris Walker who plays him had directed a few episodes which we saw over the past few weeks. I noticed that we saw less of Matt Chambers and Owen Brenman when they were directing some episodes too.

I thought it was a bit strange too, seeing everyone still refers to her as Mrs Hollins!

Thank you DarkShines. I didn't notice anyone referring to her as anything other than Karen Hollins recently.

You're welcome. 

I think Mrs Tembe (who obviously only refers to people by their surnames) has called her 'Teale' at some point but I can't be sure she hasn't called her Hollins recently.

Going by today's Rob & Karen storyline (?) maybe they were just using her maiden name more frequently recently to remind us of their situation. ?

IMDb isn't recognising my emoticons there! Insert smiley face and engagement ring as appropriate!
