So, was the extremely lacklustre demise of Pauline Fowler really all it seemed?

There's much speculation about Sonia's part in Pauline's death, but could a quick slap really be enough to fell a soap matriarch? Perhaps, and I'm hoping there is more to this story. Though Sonia seems the most likely scapegoat for the death, and will be leaving the Square in quite a hurry in a few weeks time (though that won't be the last we see of her), I can't help thinking that a far better plot would see Pauline's dull, former criminal husband Joe being responsible, paving the way for a happyish ending for Martin and Sonia.

Then again, when I really think about it, I don't actually care either way...
