Viewers said they 'weren't expecting that' as the finale got off to a bloody start
Fans sitting down to watch the last ever episode of Happy Valley were reeling in shock just minutes in over "extreme violence" just minutes in. One viewer shared a hiding behind a pillow GIF as they saw killer Tommy Lee Royce fight back at an attempt to take his life.
Viewers were wincing as things turned nasty in the car with Tommy making use of the knife to attack the thugs. Then the bloody battle continued with Tommy being strangled before using a rock to stave in his last remaining attacker. They took to Twitter to have their say after being warned at the start of the BBC One drama about "prolonged scenes of violence."
@brianwinteruk pointed out: "So much violence." Boyd Hilton said: "That scene in the car with Tommy. Proper gruelling, nasty, grimy violence."
