As Happy Valley heads into its penultimate episode this Sunday, fans have come up with plenty of theories on the show’s ending.
While Happy Valley creator Sally Wainwright promised the show would end with a “showdown” between Catherine and Tommy, fans have wondered how exactly this might play out.
We know episode 6 is going to be dramatic as the last of the series EVER, but what is in store for our heroine?
Here are the most popular theories on how Happy Valley will conclude!
1. Happy Valley ending: Catherine kills Tommy?
It’s the most popular theory, but is it so expected that it’s too obvious?
Tommy Lee Royce has been torturing Catherine since series one and fans want nothing more than to finally watch her take him down!
We know that Catherine isn’t afraid of a fight, and she’ll do anything to protect Ryan from Tommy.
Ever since Sally Wainwright promised a “showdown” between Catherine and Tommy, fans have theorised that Catherine will come out victorious and the show will end with Tommy finally dead.
One fan took to Twitter to say: “Catherine will take Tommy Lee Royce down. He’s messed with the wrong mother there!”
Another fan made Catherine’s takedown of Tommy simple: “I want Catherine to run Tommy over in her retirement Land Rover #HappyValley.”
There’s no doubt a showdown between the pair is imminent. But we fear that it won’t be as simple as Catherine getting to kill Tommy…
2. Will Tommy kill Catherine?
Fans have been worried that Catherine won’t make it out alive ever since the first episode of series 3. So, could Tommy Lee Royce be the one to kill her?
There have been constant references to Catherine’s “retirement”, so much so that fans think it’s foreshadowing that she will never make it!
It would be a shocking ending. But, it seems possible that Tommy Lee Royce might end up killing Catherine in the final episode.
He’s out of prison now, so it’s definitely easier for him!
