In fact, we later learn, it was Adele/Rob who killed their cat in exactly that way. When Adele/Rob is trying to assassinate David’s character as part of a master plan, she tells David’s mistress Louise that he killed it by stamping on its spine, then buried it in the flowerbed. When they move into their new Islington house, Adele and David have a pet cat of their own. In the book, that’s not the only cat murder committed by Adele/Rob. It’s a neat bit of manipulation and something of a surprise for those who’ve read the book. Hence, the little Charlie-related rug pull in the TV version of events. Then, in front of Marianne, she kills him by – and look away now if you’re squeamish – stamping on his head while wearing spiked high heels. In the book, Adele (who’s actually a man named Rob, it’s a big supernatural twist) first poisons Charlie’s food to make him drowsy.
