*WARNING! Spoilers for Happy Valley series 3*
After recording numerous endings, the cast of Happy Valley has no idea how the successful BBC drama will conclude.
The third and final season of Sally Wainwright’s gripping series is well underway, and with two episodes remaining, fans are already speculating on how the end will play out.
Amit Shah, who plays the drug-dealing pharmacist Faisal, has said that he has no idea how his character’s plot would end because he shot so many different scenarios.
‘I still don’t know how it all ends up for him because we filmed the final scenes in various different ways,’ he told the Obsessed with… Happy Valley podcast
Faisal recently murdered Joanna Hepworth (Mollie Winnard) in cold blood after she attempted to blackmail him and they plotted to murder her violent husband, Rob (Mark Stanley).
Rob confronted Faisal on Sunday night’s episode when he went into the back of Faisal’s car during the school run.
Faisal was frighteningly calm in the face of the circumstances, which occurred only hours after he had murdered Joanna.
‘I think he’s going through that weird transition period,’ Amit continued on the podcast.
‘When the collision happens and he realises it’s Rob like a switch goes in his head. He thinks, “Okay, I can either be Faisal from before or I can take control of the situation.” It’s just a different him.’
During the tense episode, Rob discovered his wife Joanna’s body in their garage, stuffed in a suitcase, and Tommy Lee Royce (James Norton) made his dramatic escape during a court appearance.
Happy Valley airs Sunday nights at 9pm on BBC One.
