41, yes 41!!! :eck: years ago it was finally revealed on UK TV the would be killer of JR and all was revealed as we discovered that Kristin pulled the trigger.
After a long hot summer of speculation, theories, stories, betting, everyone guessing who done the dirty deed! I still don't know how they managed to keep it a secret up to the very end - that could never happen now and It made Dallas the hottest and most talked about show in the world.
I am so glad that there wasnt internet, twitter and FB back then as it would never remain a secret now. The summer of 1980 was the best time ever to be a Dallas fan. It and the cast were in the press, papers and magazines on a daily basis and as a fan of the show it was hotter than Hot and Larry at the very top of it all, lapping it up and loving every minute of it. It was an amazing time to be a Dallas fan and I wallowed in it and lapped it all up.
It was shown in USA the night before but i stayed awake with my radio on to listen to R2 at 4am when Terry Wogan (who else) hosted a show with a reporter from USA who had just watched it telling us that Kristin pulled the trigger. it made the national news and i couldnt wait for it to get to 8.10pm on sat evening and to see the epiosde.
Happy days, Dallas at the height of its fame and front page news. Glory days for me!! (and my scissors)
What were you doing at the time, and what do you remember about it?
