Today we're revisiting the late 1970s on Guiding Light and a deeply disturbing moment in Roger and Holly’s history.

In this clip, Holly tries to leave, but Roger stops her and violently assaults her. We’ve left out the most disturbing portion of the scene, but a longer version is available on our YouTube channel.

Scenes like this are difficult to watch today, but they also reflect how dramatically attitudes and the understanding of consent and marital abuse have changed over the decades.

Were you watching Guiding Light back then? What do you remember about Roger and Holly’s relationship?

We're flashing back to 43 years ago today and a heartbreaking moment on The Young and the Restless. 💔

Paul Williams (Doug Davidson) cradled his fiancée, Cindy Lake (DeAnna Robbins), in his arms as she died after throwing herself in front of a bullet meant for the man she loved.

Cindy may have been a pr******te, but she proved she had a heart of gold—and her final act was one of true love and sacrifice.

Were you watching Y&R in 1983? Do you remember Paul and Cindy? ❤️
