what happened to effy's brother?


I started watching this show starting with season 3 for the sole reason of jack O'Connell. in season 4 when Effy had her flip out about her brother, what happened to him? I know he was hit by a bus b/c I read it but did he die then?

It's been years since I watched it but the bus didn't kill him. He was in Season 2 and from what I remember the early parts he was partially disabled but recovered.

I forget exactly what happened but seem to remember he eventually got back with Michelle (his on/off girlfriend that also went out with his best friend Sid) and they went to university together.

In the season 2 finale the group (minus Chris who died and Cassie who ran off to New York) sat around and opened their results together and Tony and his girlfriend Michelle mentioned that they were going to separate colleges several hundred miles away from each other. I'm guessing that with the distance, Tony's brain damage and Michelle being a slut the relationship didn't last

Michelle wasn't a slut at all...

I'm pretty sure the creator said that the relationship did last

Effy witnessed Tony (her brother) get run over by a bus--I think that would scar anyone. It didn't kill him, but it left him really messed up with brain disorders causing him to lose a lot of his memory and having to relearn everything.
