Jamie

Thursday 19 November 2009

The golden child of the Maguire family proved to be something of a disappointment to his mum and dad when, on release from jail for murder, he appeared to be a fully reformed character.

Jamie is married to Karen - a reformed character herself - and the two work in The Jockey on the Chatsworth Estate.

Jamie's admission of guilt for murder was a ploy to gain early parole to protect his father Paddy from a former cell mate who really didn't like him. At all.

When Jamie finds out Joe Pritchard is beating up his sister Mandy in Series 6, he gives him a taste of his own medicine and nearly gets banged up again as a result. Luckily for Jamie, Mimi comes to the rescue.

After splitting up for some of Series 6, Jamie and Karen get it back together and are now proud parents. It isn't happy families for very long though when Karen decides Joe is the man for her - for a short while at least.

Now fixated on following in his father's blood-stained footprints, will Jamie take Karen and Conor back in Series 7?
