I knew it didn't sound good for him the moment the judge began his speech, he was clearly hell-bent on making an example of him despite his immaculate record. At least he can take comfort from the fact his daughter and granddaughter will be looked out for by most of the village.
Yeah well that ain't a law the law is the law and most parents actually protect their daughter by going to the police dumbass and go to court to get restraining orders not break the bloody law
If he did that in another country, such as Canada, he would have got no more than a 4 year sentence and no less than probation for Manslaughter or Criminal Negligence Causing Death.
This happened in my town! Guy was apparently really nice and never been violent in his life. He punched someone who was in his face who was harassing him at the bar and he dropped dead instantly and he got sent down for years.
I never thought that Amelia's stalker storyline would have resulted in her father going to jail for 8 years. It kinda puts home when you're rightfully angry and amped up at someone that one punch could kill someone.
Love how these shows try to express the right way to do things Yet when someone hands themselves into police, fully cooperates and pleads guilty, they get a ridiculous sentence To me that’s encouraging people not to admit wrongdoings, it shows they receive punishment rather than acclaim
@@dannynix2732 he got 14 years for Lee Posner's murder but Dan didn't have a criminal record but Robert did. Anyways Robert got life in prison and the judge fixed the term to 14 years. So if anything it was kind of right to get 8 years for Dan murdering Lloyd but I do think he did deserve 3 or 4 years like Jimmy said.
@@mr.thegreat557 So does the British Justice System and its soap operas for mocking victims of these heinous crimes and not perpetrators. That episode sets a terrible example for how the British Justice System treats its victims. I think the writers should be forced to watch "Life With Billy", a true story about a Canadian woman, the late Jane Hurshman, who suffered grievous physical abuse in the hands of her husband, Billy Stafford, kills him in self-defence, found "not guilty" of murder, but then the Crown appeals and she's forced to accept a "guilty" plea to manslaughter as well as a six month jail sentence. The directors should rot in hell for victimizing sex abuse victims more.
8 Years? As if he might as well have broke into his home and stabbed him to death in cold blood. Its the same as Jim in Coronation street all those years back so it is. No justice at all! Disgrace.
This just goes to show groomers can get away with anything Dan was sticking up for his daughter because Lloyd was grooming amelia and Dan suffered the consequences
If Dan had a brain cell he would would keep going to the police and keep every bit of evidence not break the law. He committed gbh and manslaughter idiot. Protecting his daughter or not the law is the law and everyone is meant to follow it end off
I don't think the actor's left permanently so hopefully somewhere down the line in future there'll be a storyline where he has his sentence heavily reduced.
I don’t. I did really like Amelia at one point, she was just about the last decent kid left in the village with good morals but then they had to make her into Teen Pregnancy Story #1001 … Also everyone in the village was a moron: I absolutely love how NO ONE pointed out that when Dan decked her stalker he was inside the village! Why would the accused go to their alleged victim’s home? 😒😒😒
Oh yeah. Julie. Ugh. 🙄 And those two probably was creepy Lloyd's parents. I was thinging for a minute why Cain isn't there but then I remembered that he's in Scotland. Dan really likes to surprise his solicitor but his speech was good and straight from the heart. Was that judge stupid or something? Dan went in shock and that's why he didn't help creepy Lloyd. And limited remorse? Sure Jan. 🙄 Fuck that judge. Dan didn't plan it. I just hope that some day, some way the truth about Lloyd stalking and harassign Amelia will come to light. Also, they should've told the police about Julie harassing a kid.
While unfortunate, Dan really did himself no favours, and it could have been worse, since it's "only manslaughter". It could also have been a Robert's 14 years minimum, murder charge...
Despite most charities are on board with storylines the registered UK charity OnePunchUK criticised the outcome of storyline, obviously it could or may be taken further... but with Liam Fox already departed and with producer Jane Hudson (thankfully) to stand down... overall, this was a somewhat rushed outing...
@joshcoyle3804 because he broke the law dumbass doesn't matter if Lloyd stalked amelia the law is the law and Dan broke it end of. And when the judge have dan on tape threatening to kill the man he just killed that is enough to prove it wasn't an accident
Dan: "8 years/96 months/2922 days in the decrepit slammer? What a stupid sentence. My poor darling Amelia will be an adult and my beautiful grandaughter Esther will be in Primary School by the time these idiots finally let me out. When they do, I'll be a stronger, wiser, muscular, intelligent, scruffier, grey haired and a little aged, leather jacket, aviator wearing changed man, the old naive and vulnerable Dan Spencer that you all know will be gone"
Are you ever gonna stop making your fan thought delusions public? This isnt troll talk... its common sense... your not half obsessed with talking like this, plus, you post it everywhere...
8 years is way too long when lloyd was in the wrong in the first place. should be lloyd in court and going down not dan why do this storyline this way lloyd should be the one going to prison
To my knowledge it's only temporary whilst the actor takes part in a pantomime, I reckon he'll be back at some point in future, even if it is behind a prison visiting table.
I knew it didn't sound good for him the moment the judge began his speech, he was clearly hell-bent on making an example of him despite his immaculate record.

This is so emotional to watch
Sure was.. I feel for dan
8 Years is harsh and of the day he was only doing what any parent would of done and that is protecting their children or kids
Pity said 'child' turned up at court looking like a whore.
Still can’t do what he did
Yeah well that ain't a law the law is the law and most parents actually protect their daughter by going to the police dumbass and go to court to get restraining orders not break the bloody law

@@grovesy333yes you can because
This is such an important story to raise because you can easily lose your temper and punch someone and then your life changes forever

Not really. Didn't robert get over 10 years for the exact same thing?
@@dannynix2732 Robert at least used an offensive weapon but your point still somewhat stands.
Maybe if she dressed less like a prostitute the sentence wouldnt have been as harsh?

@@makenziexd986 Dan didn't murder anyone. It was manslaughter, just like it was with Robert.
I have to be honest. In my opinion, that last scene could've been executed a whole lot better
It really could have lol
The director needs sacking.

That's about the right sentence as someone I knew got 8 years for something similar only served 4 so will Dan.
Never called ambulance, went indoors to watch
That so not fair!!
He'll be out in 3 or 4 years for good behaviour.
I hope he’s back in three years
I don't think the actor's left permanently so hopefully somewhere down the line in future there'll be a storyline where he has his sentence heavily reduced.
@@adriansampson6970 I think Liam Fox will be back after his Christmas panto's over. Maybe he'll have some vacation after it.
This was not how I wanted the arc to end.
Poor dan
Did he do it?
Goodbye Dan 😭
True same with Nikhil lose Gennie, etc
I'm one of the officers in this scene. Could you guess which one I am? Great acting & thanks for posting it.
I’m feel sorry for Amelia and I just wanna hug her. Dan has got send down to prison for 8 years. 💔
I don’t. I did really like Amelia at one point, she was just about the last decent kid left in the village with good morals but then they had to make her into Teen Pregnancy Story #1001 …

I feel sorry Amelia
She turned up at court dressed like a cheap prostitute.
Me too she’s gonna be upset that no one else will look after her
Poor Dan and poor Amilea
The dales are now diverse , nothing is sacred.
From 7:42 reminds of The Bills plodding feet.
Oh yeah. Julie. Ugh. 🙄 And those two probably was creepy Lloyd's parents. I was thinging for a minute why Cain isn't there but then I remembered that he's in Scotland.

Amelia knows how to dress for court.
Thats probably why the judge threw the book at her old lad.
I'll miss Dan tbh
While unfortunate, Dan really did himself no favours, and it could have been worse, since it's "only manslaughter". It could also have been a Robert's 14 years minimum, murder charge...
That bloody stone had to be there.
Despite most charities are on board with storylines the registered UK charity OnePunchUK criticised the outcome of storyline, obviously it could or may be taken further... but with Liam Fox already departed and with producer Jane Hudson (thankfully) to stand down... overall, this was a somewhat rushed outing...
They have a lot of Court cases in soaps.
I thought the actor just needed some time off to do pantomime, wasnt expecting that.
Hopefully he'll be back a lot sooner than that, I don't think he's left permanently.
@@adriansampson6970 hope so, I like Dan!!
7:48
He will be out in 4 years for good behavior
Long overdue. Dead wood.
I hope Dan gets not Guilty
For his Daughter Amelia
Yeah why can’t you just let him go he didn’t mean to kill Loyld he just wanted him to leave his daughter alone for stalking her
@joshcoyle3804 because he broke the law dumbass doesn't matter if Lloyd stalked amelia the law is the law and Dan broke it end of. And when the judge have dan on tape threatening to kill the man he just killed that is enough to prove it wasn't an accident

Amelia what was that
8 years is way too long when lloyd was in the wrong in the first place. should be lloyd in court and going down not dan why do this storyline this way lloyd should be the one going to prison
I heard shorter sentences for drunk drivers who kill someone!
WE ALL KNEW SHREK WOULD GO DOWN they have to have someone in prison in this soap, Same shite every month
Total plot writing.
Who are those old people beside Julie
Creepy Lloyd's parents.
@@tirsus1482 oh I see they should really be ashamed of their son for stalking and harassing a 16 year old girl
@@joshcoyle3804it’s not their faults. It’s Peoyd’s fault for being a stalker. I’m sure none of them knew what Peoyd was doing.
@@Sam_Brunt I know but they shouldn’t accuse Ameila of lying about Lloyd stalking her like Julie is because she isn’t she’s telling the truth
@@joshcoyle3804 I don't think they believe it's true.
Mandy To late dan has Eight years sorry
What did he expect I know it's sad but he took someone's life yeah not intentionally but he still died
8 years is fair, he cause a man’s death
Has he officially left the soap or?
To my knowledge it's only temporary whilst the actor takes part in a pantomime, I reckon he'll be back at some point in future, even if it is behind a prison visiting table.
good never let dan out i dont like him
Man dead because of him,
It was a accident he didn’t mean to kill him he just wanted him to leave his daughter alone when he was stalking and harassing her online
Still dead
