BBC Happy Valley's James Norton shares simple sign-off as he's inundated with messages after Tommy Lee Royce ending

Even James Norton appeared to have no words to sum up that Happy Valley finale as he shared a very simple sign-off after the last-ever episode of Happy Valley. The actor somehow managed to make viewers of the BBC One drama 'feel sorry' for Tommy Lee Royce as he was seen in the role of the ultimate villain for the last time.

The last ever outing of Happy Valley began on New Year's Day and saw Catherine gearing up for the end of her 30-year policing career. However, the discovery of the remains of a gangland murder victim in a drained reservoir sparked a series of events that drew her back to Tommy.
