Because of this, I imagine very soon Jeph will introduce a new conflict, whatever form that may take (not necessarily between some of the main characters, I can also imagine some kind of 'foe'). Likely something related to the feelings Bubbles and Faye have for one another that may go further in one of them then in the other.

For Marten, it would be interesting to see him make a serious switch to a different career, or maybe do a story line about his band performing and maybe having some success(?). 
Don't expect much in the way of storylines for Will, Steve, Dora, Marigold, or even Veronica and their relationships. It's pretty much Faye/Bubbles central now for the most part.

The return of Angus would be interesting, especially bringing along tensions with Bubbles.

Yeah, lots of potential there. She'd finally get to beat someone up (figuratively - or not; this is Faye after all) for leaving her. Could be cathartic, or it could be a nuclear meltdown. And of course if Angus returns it'll be because he struck out at his new job and his confidence will already be shot to heck.

BenRG:
I would like to see more of the Brun-Elliott-Clinton triangle. Seriously, it could lead to both comedy and interesting character development. An obvious possibility is that Brun could date both Elliott and Clinton and make it clear to both that, at this time, she is not interested in an exclusive relationship. Both men are her friends and she wishes to spend personal time with them in a more formal manner on occasion.

There is nothing particularly unusual or 'transgressive' about this. However, given that Elliott also finds Clinton attractive, it might be interesting to see how he reacts to this particular social pressure.

Why would that be? I mean, he presumably has lived in Northampton for quite a while, so I don't see why he wouldn't return at least to visit friends in town. Or did you mean he he moves back permanently? The latter is indeed difficult to imagine, but even if that happens it doesn't have to mean at all that he flamed out in his jb.

Not sure about Faye 'beating up' on Angus either, he actually didn't do anything wrong. If they run into one another, it'll most likely end with Faye apologizing to him for not being able to be honest/try to work out a solution.

Dave H:
I agree Angus didn't do anything wrong, but Faye could still feel like he abandoned her. She may even admit it's not right for her to do so, but emotions don't always yield to logic.

I may hve jumped to a conclusion too quickly though. When I read the remark about "the return of Angus" I assumed it meant he'd be moving back to Northampton. Returning to visit is a more likely scenario.
