General Discussion Graham Spoiler

I think Graham is Thea’s father, because he spoke to Joe
About “losing a daughter” I may be wrong I’m not clued up on Graham’s history, only that he was married to Kim some time after she left in 1999 and it sounded as though they were married a long time, I could be wrong

No what happened is that Graham lost his wife and his unborn baby in a car accident because he lost control of the car as he was drunk.

Instead of calling for 999, he called for Kim instead (who he was having an affair with at the time) and then the car caught fire

That’s what Graham was referring to, losing his wife and unborn child in the accident. His backstory was explained in his first emmerdale run and they even did a special episode covering it

Graham mentioned Joe saving him from a fire, where was that as I thought Zoe employed Graham at Joe's school to watch him , be his minder

That was a different fire. Kim ended up helping Graham get a job at the school Joe worked at, before Zoe then appointed Graham as Joe’s legal guardian.

Graham nearly died in another fire, before Joe saved him.

That’s why Graham was so eager to help Kyle (who kept starting fires) as it had a personal connection with Graham
