It’s not over: More suffering on the way for Katy on Fair City

Not again...

Fair City viewers breathed a sigh of relief earlier back in May after Katy O'Brien was finally freed, having been held captive by Ciarán for over year. Those of us watching along almost felt as hard done by as Katy for having to put up with the drawn-out storyline for so long, with one viewer even starting an online petition to have the character freed. If you were one of those who got behind the campaign, you might not like what's coming in Carrigstown as it's been revealed that Katy is to be held hostage again. Seriously. In tonight's episode, Oisín Brennan barges into her apartment and when he refuses to leave, she runs to her bedroom, only to have him lock the door behind her, leaving her trapped. Actress Amilia Stewart who plays Katy on the soap, says that the incident causes her character to relive the trauma of her kidnap. "For the last few months, she's been slowly trying to move forward and deal with what Ciaran put her through but tonight, she is instantly catapulted back to when she was trapped in the workshop," she told The Herald. "It's Katy's worst nightmare to find herself back in that position. Who knows what effect it will have on her?" We don't know how long Katy will be held hostage for but we might give the guy who started the last petition a buzz, just in case.
