When the show was produced wasn't there certain a Bible along with it to explian each background of the charaters?
Like how was Dillys shop formed?
Who was Norman's Dad?
Who were Sharah and James Parents,
How was Sam recruited into the fire service?
Who was Penny's orgins, why did she came to pontyPandy
What was Officer Steele's history?
and alot more intresting questions.....
Well, it was implied that Norman's dad died in a fire. Notice how protective Dillys was of him?
sharehow did you come up with that? please tell me for I am dieing to know some personal answers of the charaters lives, sorry but I am a curious-nosy person demanding to know answers.
shareI don't have any real sources, but it is maybe hinted at. Think about it. Norman comes across as a bit of a pyromaniac - he's often the source of the trouble and usually starts the fires...he seems almost disturbed to have done all this bad stuff at his age. I had the idea afew years ago that something must have happened in his past to make him so connected with fire. And what else other than losing a loved parent at a young age, before he could comprehend it? Maybe Dillys didn't explain what had happened to his dad properly to Norman and so he couldn't deal with it, leaving him with all the jumbled memories of this unknown fire for him to not understand. So he dealt with his fire problem the only way he could - by creating it, as we see in most of the episodes.
Wow...I need to get a life. Maybe it's because it's a Sunday.
Thanks for your honest options, Pal:)
