probably by police car, she isn't being killed off is she? She might end up going to stay with mysterious relatives like Kat did or something.

that could be anything from slipping on a sandwich and cracking her head open to um, leaving in a black cab. the possibilities! how long till she leaves? cos it might have sumthing to do with the current plot.

well i just figured if dennis did come back, people would probably still think he was the father of her child (which he wasn't) and that zoe had a 'miscarriage' so some people might think he has a right to know, and have a go at him for leaving her! maybe even blame him for what happened.

but he obviously knows the truth, sooo...

I thought maybe with Dennis returning all her secrets could be about to come out cos everyone except Sam and Chrissie think she lost Dennis's baby and with Sam and Chrissie calling a truce in the next couple of weeks ZOe could find herself very alone

hi, im not sure if many will join this new thread in saying that they are fans of zoe slater or zonnis! but i just want to say that i love zoe's character, she has been through so much at such a young age, and she alwasy bounces back, even after the death of den, i HATE chrissie now for telling her that she killed den! that was so wrong, zoe would of probably kept quiet for chrissie anyway if she had just told her the truth, I'll be really, really, really sad to see Zoe leave- thats on june 17th by the way, but before she leaves i hope she gets her revenge on sam, chrissie, dennis and sharon for all that they've done to her. She deserves some happiness in her life, im just glad that she was happy with dennis for a while, and my honest opinion is that when zoe told dennis she was pregnant whilst she was panicking and scared that he'd find out the truth he was actually getting over sharon and becoming happy, not just because of the "baby" but because of zoe too, remember many a time he got jealous when she was flirting with others like jake moon, and he looked truly devastated when he caught her and den in bed together, and after all that he was still going to take her back, untill he found out the truth of course! and zoe only lied to keep dennis, and remember den put her up to the lie, anyone agree with me?

I am not a zoe fan but i dont mind the actress she seem quite nice and i wish all luck in the future

Getting back to your post zoe has been through a lot i suppose at a young age but who hasnt been in the square some have been through far worse and she had a loving supporting family an around her who loved her

Zoe was probalry happy because she was blinded by love i dont think dennis was really happy otherwise he wouldnt of kept trying to get back with sharon we all knew were his heart lied it was just a matter of time. After sharon left we all saw how heart broken he was to the fact he lost the only woman he loved. I think he was getting used to being a dad i dont think it had anything to do with zoe as much and the fact he was getting jealous was because she was kissing another man when supposedly she was meant to be carry dennis baby you dont do that to the person you love

If he was getting used to zoe then why wasnt he sleeping with her?

When he caught zoe and den together i feel it was more to do with him letting the woman he loved leave only to be stabbed in the back in a cruel way afterall he did sacrifice happiness with the woman he loved for her and the baby and she thrown it back in his face for standing by her and supporting her and sleeping with your boyfriends dad is the ultimate betrayal and he was hurt by the fact he let the woman he truly love leave for nothing and was thinking about the baby he was getting so use to. This was a devasting a blow he had let the woman he loved go for nothing and the fact his dad betrayed him was even worse and when he found out about the baby lie he was crushed because he got use to the idea of being dad that was a evil thing for to do.

Chrissie is great she was hurt by zoe as well and she was a innocent partie in all this she didnt deserve what she got she loved den and wanted to have a baby with him and zoe knew this and still went an along with her plan which was a purely selfish and desperate act and not even thinking of the consquences that layed ahead she could of stopped it at any time but she chose not to she knew den was only trying to hurt dennis if she really loved dennis she wouldnt of gone along with it in the first place.

Okay fair play they shouldnt of gone behind her back but come on she had warning signs left right and centre but she choose not to see them because she knew deep down their was no love but she got clingy and desperate which was even worse. Okay it wasnt all zoe fault den had as much fault as anyone he was manipulating the situation but zoe had a mind of her own and had the right to say no but she didnt because by doing this she was gaining something from this a baby and ultimately trapping the guy she was desperate to keep One thing that made me not feel sorry for her was when she used sharon infertility against her their was no need for it that was a cruel thing to do in my book you dont take pleasure in the fact that you can bring a child in to the world and another person cant you dont rub it in their face it not right especially when you are lying and it is just plain cruel. :angel:

Sorry its a bit of a rant?

There has been a lot of debate over this. However, I'm inclined to agree with anglebule here. The reality of it is that Zoe is not the poor little victim who got trampled over by the Watts family, far from it.

Zoe hasn't had a great life but I don't consider it hard. Characters like Dennis, Sharon, Stacey and Kat have had tough childhoods but Zoe has come from a large loving family who love and dote on her. Charlie worships the ground that she walks on and sees past the 'princess' label that viewers like ourselves can visibly see. It’s ironic how Stacey is the only one in the Slater clan to see past that. Chrissie was wrong for blaming it on Zoe and letting her think that she killed Den. I do think that was inexcusable but I do feel it was understandable because lets face it Zoe is hardly a sane character and would drop the three in it if she knew the truth. Nevertheless, Zoe did not deserve that. Chrissie will get her comeuppance once day but it won't be at the hands of Zoe. However let’s not forget that Zoe slept with her husband even though Chrissie confided in her about wanting a child. Despite Zoe’s desperation there was only one person who Zoe was thinking about it all this and that was herself. Very selfish that is.

Why would Zoe want to get revenge on Sharon and Dennis? Chrissie I understand but not the others. I know they cheated on her but she was so obvious to the truth the whole time. Sharon told her that Dennis still loved her but she didn't want to here it. Dennis also said to her before they dated that he wasn't a commitment man and he'd be seen with other women. She didn't have any complaints back then. Not only that, he also told her well into their relationship that he did not love her and thought of Sharon. However she took it upon herself to take that risk in the desperation scenario that he would one day love her and forget about Sharon. She knew deep down that he still harboured deep feelings for her but she didn't want to see it and was consumed by her blinded 'love' for him.

Also what about what Zoe has done to them? Sharon and Dennis have been no angles but I think what Zoe did and said was far worse than a two week affair that Sharon and Dennis had. It made my blood boil when she harped onto Sharon about 'splitting up a family' and 'are you gonna give him a baby?'. She destroyed their happiness just so she could have him. As for revenge on them I think she's had that but splitting them up and the impregnating herself with Den's baby. When it comes down to it Zoe was planning to lie about the childs parentage for the rest on his life and keep Dennis oblivious to the truth forever. Wouldn’t you say that was worse than a very short affair? Personally I would love to see Sharon give her a smack for what she’s done.

Dennis never got 'over' Sharon. This much is crystal clear. She was the love of his life. You just done forget about some like that in a matter of weeks, sometimes never. Also just before Dennis left in January after discovering the pregnancy lie he told Den 'I'll never forget Sharon.' Dennis tried to make a go of things with Zoe, not because he loved her but because she carrying his unborn child, which is the reason he stayed in the first place. As for her flirtations with Jake, I don't think he was jealous in anyway but disgusted with her attempts to get Dennis's attention. She was behaving pathetically in front of a pub load of people and it annoyed him and she was supposed to be carrying his child. Hardly a way to behave. Dennis was shocked, angry and hurt when he found them in bed together but I think this was more to do with Den’s postion in than Zoe’s. A father figure is something that Dennis has craved for since childhood and they seemed to be getting along (Den had other plans) and when he saw them together he was hurt by his betrayal and his attempts of punishing him for ever loving Sharon. However the sight of your girlfriend and dad in bed together is enough to drive anyone up the wall.

Zoe's reasons for keeping Dennis were selfish and desperate. You’re right Den did put her up to it but she made the decision. He wasn't forcing her to do it. He made it clear several times that she was here because she wanted to be. I agree that he was in the driving seat and pushed all the right buttons. Zoe however is no child. She was 21 and therefore in control over what she says and does. If a dirty old man propositions you for sex (and that being your fellas dad) you would say no. It was quite clear that she would have done anything to keep Dennis and had Dennis not found out, she would still be lying now.

Pretending she was pregnant was a desperate measure and although Den persuaded her to say it put it this way she didn't need much persuading. Zoe thought she could buy Dennis's love with a baby and this only served to cause more problems for herself however bedding her boyfriend's dad was tkaing her love for Dennis too far in fact she did not do it for Dennis but for herself as she couldn't bare the thought of everyone discovering the truth about her phantom pregnancy.

Zoe gave no thought for Dennis's feelings or Chrissie's when she slept with Den but did Dennis think of Zoe as he bedded Sharon I believe he felt guilty but he was just as bad as she was at that stage. They only difference being is that he loved Sharon she had no feelings for Den.
Zoe also showed her desperation when she snogged Jake Moon (can't blame the girl really can you) I think all her behaviour the clinginess, the blindness to the truth etc stems from all the lies she was told when she was growing up and I pity her but I don't like her

Zoe is a good one for outting the blame onto someone else and that showed again after she had the termination and she desperately tried to blame Chrissie and yes Chrissie in a way rail roaded her but it was Zoe's final desicion Zoe always feels the need for shifting the blame onto others as it saves her having to face up to her own mistakes she's naive and shows great immaturity in that respect

If Zoe thought of other for a second instead of her all the time she would have let Dennis go a long time ago she obviously had no self respect for herself just as others will soon have respect for her whe they discover the truth her reasons for keeping Dennis were for herself she never gave him or Sharon a second thought

Another side to Zoe was shown when she caught Stacey in the flat with Dennis now it was obvious then Stacey had alot of problems but once again princess Zoe steam rolled in and I think that was the turning point for Dennis when he realised Zoe could only think of herlsef and not others and he headed over to be with Sharon

Overall I know I should feel sorry for Zoe and her tragic life but truth be told most of it she brought on herself and she only has herself to blame I for one can't wait for her to leave

i used to really like zoe but lately she has become a bit drippy and annoying! it will be sad to see her leave she is such a big part of the slater family. i agree she has been through so much espeically this year( even if some of it was bought on herself!) i do feel sorry for her that chrissie is telling her that she killed den when it wasnt, sam is to blame for that as well though amd im hoping that she will really go for sam when the truth comes out (not long!!)
i dont see why she needs to gwt reveng on dennis or sharon though! they were in love noone will take sharons place in dennis eyes! she stooped very low when she pretended tp be pregnant with his baby. and then sleeping with den i couldnt belive it! if anything it should be dennuis and sharon seeking revenge

To be honest it actually makes a refreshing change to see someone stick up for Zoe. I'm not really one way or the other on her, I don't hate the character. I think she was manipulated into a lot of her actions and I think she found herself in situations that she couldn't get out of and a lot of it was desperation. Some people might say she should have been stronger, but everyone has weaknesses. I don't think she should be vilified for it. I would have liked to have seen Zoe move on in her life and eventually see her happy but in reality it would kill her to see Sharon and Dennis happy together every day so its no surprise the character moves on.

In the beginning I like her, then she turned into a clingy, annoying b*tch, excuse my language. She acted as though she was so special how dare Dennis prefer Sharron, and that he had no right to like anyone but her. She constantly whines, and there is no end to how low she can stood. I agree she is a strong member of the cast, but she also grates on you...badly.

i'm sorry, i think i need to sit down, ur telling me that there are fans of Zoe Slater? omfg

well ok she was alright to begin with, after all "your not my mother, yes i am" would not be able to have happened without her but apart from that...

she had so much potential: an affair with Jamie MItchell, a lesbian relationship with Kelly, etc...

but the final nail in her coffin was splitting up Shannis, which everyone seems to like, dont get me started on that... id give her a medal for that but well thats why she became so unpopualr

It's not just the shannis thing for me. I have disliked her from the second the girl stepped into Walford. As soon as she came, she chased Jaime like a lap dog (what’s new) despite him already being settled in a loving relationship with Sonia, and eventually she slept with him. This was all because she fancied him. I don't like the way she treated her best mate Kelly. She got with her ex from the second they split even knowing full well that Kelly was still hung up on him. It was all me, me, me. It didn't stop her and it infuriated me when she said 'get used to it or move out' -selfish mean cow! That’s only some of it. I can go on....

woooahh!!! wish i'd never made the post lol! the reason why i said zoe should get revenge on sharon and dennis is because sharon is so much more older and mature than zoe, and so is dennis, sharon could see that zoe was besotted with dennis, and STILL had her affair with him even though she knew it would ruin most people lives like zoe's, and den's and the rest of the watts family, the only people who would come out happy by it would of been them two! zoe, she was still young and nieve, and in the beginning sharon was very lenient with zoe, by telling dennis to be with her and you know what i didnt see dennis objecting! remember the time when dennis thought andy had hit zoe? and he went over there and punched him, well taht shows how much he cared fo her. and then when he found out that zoe had manipulated him just so she could seek her revenge on andy for her mum kat, well he then invited her to move in with him! it seems to me as though that when dennis discovered what zoe's plan had been (about the andy thing)manipulative he didnt care! so the rest of you shouldn't either (about her been manipulative) chrissie is also a hugely guilty party in the destruction of zoe's life, chrissie knew that zoe deep down wanted her baby, zoe kept on telling chrissie that the slater girls never got rid of their babies, she basically said to her that she didnt want an abortion, chrissie wouldn't even let zoe go fo a walk, whilst they were in the clinic cause she knew zoe would back out of it, no chrissie had to keep pushing and pushing her into it, SHE is the manipulative one, she even got sharon to come all the way from america just to hear what her dad was really like (that was evil!) chrissie only made zoe get rid of den's baby for her own petty revenge! she knew what den was like with all of his affairs so why stay with him? i can't forget that episode where chrissie took great pleasure in telling den that zoe had miscarried, i even felt a tiny bit sorry for him!. And den was the one who used sharon's infertility against her, HE gave zoe the idea about lying about the pregnancy and HE told her to go and speak to sharon on xmas day, zoe was just the puppet in her and den's relasonship. Zoe hasn't come out of this at all well, she has lost her baby, lost dennis, thinks she has killed den, has made an enemy of chrissie, thinks sam is her friend, and is soon to find out that sharon and dennis are now together. And if sharon and dennis were so in love then why did they keep splitting up? and getting back together again, even before zoe came on the scene, sharon often told dennis that she wasn't interested she has messed him around somehting rotten! and zoe has only ever loved him, she slept with dirty den! was willing to have a baby at such a young age just to keep him. oh and why did someone mention zoe's nastiness to stacey, have you heard some of the things she has said to zoe? stacey is a pure bitch who gets off on peoples unhappiness, she even tried to split up zoe and dennis, and so i dont blame zoe for going mad at her then!

Sharon is older and more mature that Zoe, but Dennis isn't. He is in fact an immature character. I think Sharon knew that it wouldn't ruin her life. At the end of the day, Dennis was not Zoe’s husband and she didn't have his child. It was all a one way relationship so by her pursuing him, she knew that in the long run, Zoe wouldn't lose an enormous amount. Anyway how many times has Zoe been in love now? -Jaimie, Anthony, Ronny, Dennis...

Maybe Sharon and Dennis would have been happy but that didn't mean that it would have been easy for them. There was always that sheer opposition from their family and they did lack a lot of support. The only likely allays they had was Dot and maybe Chrissie on some level but thats about it.

Dennis did object to Zoe massively in the beginiing. He was ignoring her texts told her that it was like a fling. Also he told Zoe in front of her that he thought of Sharon. This was when they were dating. The negative thing that Dennis did was move in with her. That was a mistake and I can see why Zoe would think that he was serious about her. However before that he left her for 5 weeks no word no warning and just up and left. She jumped straight into bed with him with no complaints as soon as he got back. He treated her badly but Zoe's stupidity and patheticness are as much to blame. He has been clear several times.

I won't dispute that Dennis cared for, I genuinely believe that he did, but love her - definitely not. It was obvious that she was second best to Sharon and nothing more than a safe easy option. Dennis went mental at Andy because he did genuinely care for but also livid with Andy as well because they have always had this love/hate relationship. Dennis grew to become fond of Zoe but what that was it. Their relationship was quite flat and very much one sided.

When Dennis invited Zoe to move in with him it wasn’t because she was playing little miss manipulative because of the Kat situation, it was what Andy said. If you remember the scenes when Dennis punched Andy and then calmed down Andy started to harp on about his feelings about Sharon. He said 'It's Sharon you want, everyone knows it, even Zoe must' and then 'tell me you don't think about Sharon when you are in bed with her?' Dennis was very quiet, ignored him and left. When he got home he was staring heavily at the picture of him and Sharon. It was obvious that Andy’s words were influential to his next decision. By him moving her in, it was yet another attempt to forget about Sharon, in a desperate bid that his feelings will go away and by having Zoe around things would get easier.

Chrissie is manipulative but it was Zoe who signed the paper in the end and made that choice. This is what annoys me about Zoe -she never can take responsibility for her own actions. She forces it on others time and time again. It was the same with Den 'you ruined m life'.. 'I hate you' Change the record the old one is getting knackered. Zoe allowed her self to get manipulated and could have pulled out on any time but she didn't because she was desperate to keep Dennis, not thinking about him but herself. Den didn't make her do anything she didn't want to do and just like he said 'you would do anything to get what you wanted.' He was dead right. I hate Den for what he has done, don’t get me wrong but Zoë does bear a lot of responsibility here. She was consumed with what she could gain/lose by doing the deed. Like you've said 'HE told her...' but since when has Zoe been his performing seal? She is her own person and at 21 should be able to make her own choice. When Michelle Fowler got pregnant at 16 by Den, she was minor so I could sympathise with her and she was genuinely lonely. Zoe though is an adult and only though about herself in this.

Sharon and Dennis's main reason for splitting up was because of their family. There is no doubt that they love each other but Den was never going to allow them to be together and eventually Dennis chose family over Sharon and dumped her but he later regretted it when he realised that she was far more important. By then though it was too late because she didn't want to be hurt again so she rejected him which was quite understandable but Sharon never stopped loving Dennis and visa versa. However, yet again their feelings caved in which was naturally going to happen considering how deeply they felt for each other. What Sharon and Dennis have/had is real. They have been through hell and back and the leaving scenes at Christmas showed how torn they were about letting each other go. I don't even think that Zoe loved Dennis. I saw it more of a teenage infatuation that turned really obsessive. Zoe never slept with Den because she loved Dennis but merely so she could keep him. Sharon on the other hand let the man she loved go he could be a father. She thought about the welfare of his unborn child. That’s something that Zoe could never do -love someone enough to let them go.

Stacey has been horrible to Zoe and she can be a right bitch but half the stuff she comes out with is spot on. I’m glad someone in the square can see past her 'princess' and 'I'm so innocent ways'

Ooops, wrote an essay again! Kind of used to it now!

lol, well i really don't think we'll be able to agree on this, so im not going to write another long, long piece explaining why zoe has done what she has done, i just hope that when she leaves she feels better about herself than she has done over these past few months, she is a much better person than she has been acting, and we see this side of zoe, when we see her with kat or her family, and if michelle ryan ever does decide to return to the square i hope she comes back like a real slater gal! really confident and in contol of her own life again, she is a very strong person who should not let herself be manipulated by others... such as den and chrissie or sam... im just hoping that kat will help her sort her life out before she leaves.
*tried to keep it shorter this time lol, though i think ive argued my case well for a 14 year old! dont know where i got the leanne 27 from though! lol

I like Zoe.
She was great when Kat told her that she was her mum and Harry was her dad and when she found out about Kat and Anthony. She just got boring when she got together with Dennis. But you can't forget about how brilliant she was before that. She used to be fun and up for laugh but nowadays she just mopes about.

For a 14 year old you have argued you case extreamly well. :)

Well I've taken a dislike tlo her character from pretty much the begining so my view on her isn't a bias one due to being passionate shannis fan. However I will admit that her character was better to watch before she got invloved with Dennis. Her relationship with Dennis hasn't done her characer any favoures and I'm dismayed that ee decided to implement her in the storyline in the first place. Before she got invloved the story was brilliant but as soon as it turned into a love triangle (with her central to that) it lost it's momentum.

I never classed as brilliant though and I've never really warmed to her. I won't be sad to see her go but good luck to Michelle. :)

Yeah before Dennis she was good.. she was sweet, cheeky and typical teenager but she turned into a snivelling wreck with Dennis.. I hate when she tried to be Kat, it is not her

Her exit will be good and I have to admit, i am getting sick of her moaning all the time.

I think you know how I feel on the subject anyway so I won't go into too much detail. I agree with you point about Sharon and Dennis but I don't think it balances out to what she did. I'm sick of people in the sqaure thinking that she can do no wrong. :rolleyes: The affair got boreing because it dragged and character consistancey went straight out the window from May onwards.

01-06-2005, 16:04
woooahh!!! wish i'd never made the post lol! the reason why i said zoe should get revenge on sharon and dennis is because sharon is so much more older and mature than zoe, and so is dennis, sharon could see that zoe was besotted with dennis, and STILL had her affair with him even though she knew it would ruin most people lives like zoe's, and den's and the rest of the watts family, the only people who would come out happy by it would of been them two! zoe, she was still young and nieve, and in the beginning sharon was very lenient with zoe, by telling dennis to be with her and you know what i didnt see dennis objecting! remember the time when dennis thought andy had hit zoe? and he went over there and punched him, well taht shows how much he cared fo her. and then when he found out that zoe had manipulated him just so she could seek her revenge on andy for her mum kat, well he then invited her to move in with him! it seems to me as though that when dennis discovered what zoe's plan had been (about the andy thing)manipulative he didnt care! so the rest of you shouldn't either (about her been manipulative) chrissie is also a hugely guilty party in the destruction of zoe's life, chrissie knew that zoe deep down wanted her baby, zoe kept on telling chrissie that the slater girls never got rid of their babies, she basically said to her that she didnt want an abortion, chrissie wouldn't even let zoe go fo a walk, whilst they were in the clinic cause she knew zoe would back out of it, no chrissie had to keep pushing and pushing her into it, SHE is the manipulative one, she even got sharon to come all the way from america just to hear what her dad was really like (that was evil!) chrissie only made zoe get rid of den's baby for her own petty revenge! she knew what den was like with all of his affairs so why stay with him? i can't forget that episode where chrissie took great pleasure in telling den that zoe had miscarried, i even felt a tiny bit sorry for him!. And den was the one who used sharon's infertility against her, HE gave zoe the idea about lying about the pregnancy and HE told her to go and speak to sharon on xmas day, zoe was just the puppet in her and den's relasonship. Zoe hasn't come out of this at all well, she has lost her baby, lost dennis, thinks she has killed den, has made an enemy of chrissie, thinks sam is her friend, and is soon to find out that sharon and dennis are now together. And if sharon and dennis were so in love then why did they keep splitting up? and getting back together again, even before zoe came on the scene, sharon often told dennis that she wasn't interested she has messed him around somehting rotten! and zoe has only ever loved him, she slept with dirty den! was willing to have a baby at such a young age just to keep him. oh and why did someone mention zoe's nastiness to stacey, have you heard some of the things she has said to zoe? stacey is a pure bitch who gets off on peoples unhappiness, she even tried to split up zoe and dennis, and so i dont blame zoe for going mad at her then!


I know what you're saying is mostly true... but no one can manipulate anyone that much... if she really wanted to keep her baby all she had to do was say no! that she didn't want to go through with it... but she didn't... she kept mentioning the slater girls and they wouldn't do it... she she is one of them and SHE did it.. she could have walked out of the abrotion clinic if she wanted to but she didn't...

Stacey may be a bitch... but think about it... Stacey tried it on with Dennis and he turned her down... what more did Zoe need?... Dennis had a troubled childhood and he was just trying to talk to Stacey... if Zoe had any brains what so ever she should have seen the look of hurt on his face when she was talking Stacey being a 'slut'... she doesn't think about anyone but herself... she told Dennis that SHE needed attention, She needed to be loved, SHE wanted him to love her... that should have been a big clue for her, if she didn't think he loved her WHY did she stay with him?

i understand that Den gave her the idea of the 'fake' baby and put her in an arkward position at christmas... but she went over to see Sharon and made Sharon feel GULITY about what she was doing to the 'fake' baby... Zoe manipulated Sharon that night and she did it all on her own...

If you loved someone then you would let then go... making someone you 'claim' to love stay by your side because YOU want them there is wrong it's not love... she never once considered how Dennis would feel in her little plan...

and SHE slept with Den she didn't have too... she could have just walked away and told Dennis the truth... she loss all her self respect and the respect of people around her when she chose to sleep with another woman's husband over telling the truth and ending Den's rein of terror over her.. she could have told the truth... at any time during those few weeks she could have just told the truth and then she wouldn't have nearly killed Den... she wouldn't have had the abortion... and she'd still of lost Dennis, but WHy would you want to be with someone who DIDN'T lvoe you and LOVED someonne ELSE???

hi, im not sure if many will join this new thread in saying that they are fans of zoe slater or zonnis! but i just want to say that i love zoe's character, she has been through so much at such a young age, and she alwasy bounces back, even after the death of den, i HATE chrissie now for telling her that she killed den! that was so wrong, zoe would of probably kept quiet for chrissie anyway if she had just told her the truth, I'll be really, really, really sad to see Zoe leave- thats on june 17th by the way, but before she leaves i hope she gets her revenge on sam, chrissie, dennis and sharon for all that they've done to her. She deserves some happiness in her life, im just glad that she was happy with dennis for a while, and my honest opinion is that when zoe told dennis she was pregnant whilst she was panicking and scared that he'd find out the truth he was actually getting over sharon and becoming happy, not just because of the "baby" but because of zoe too, remember many a time he got jealous when she was flirting with others like jake moon, and he looked truly devastated when he caught her and den in bed together, and after all that he was still going to take her back, untill he found out the truth of course! and zoe only lied to keep dennis, and remember den put her up to the lie, anyone agree with me?
yeah i totally agree with you , it might have been a little desperate to say she waz preggers but still she is bearly an adult shes still young and i bet any teenagers ,late teenagers and young adults would do the same for the one they love and the one they want to be with for the rest of her life , even if she is still in her prime !

Barely an adult? She was 21. Just becoming an adult would be 18 and by then at least have some maturity. I honestly expected that behaviour from a 15/16 year old not someone's in their early 20's. I'm her age and I can't say that 'any' person wouldn't have done what she did. In reality they would have strangled Dennis for what he did and told them to shuv it -not still want them. Or if she really loved him, she would had thought beyond her own selfish needs and let him go. This is why I'm convinced that Zoe's feelings for Dennis were not truly love but quite an obsessive infatuation.

What she did was the lowest of low. Lying about a baby- yeah I think there are some desperate women who would do such measures to that to keep their men (more fool them) but sleep with their fellas dad no matter who much they were manipulated, defiantly not. The whole thing was contrived and Zoe’s portrayal is a very poor representation of a 21 year old. :)

remember zoe's life has seemed so far to of been full of lies such as kat saying she was her sister when she was actually her mum, then kat and anthony trueman lied about their feelings for one another when zoe was with anthony, and dennis continuously leading her on and saying he loved her when he didnt, he also lied to her when he said he no longer had feelings fo sharon if his feelings were so strong for sharon why didnt he just tell zoe? instead of leading her on for so many months, all she has ever done is try and make him love her and he clearly hadn't said no, and so zoe went on believing that he had feelings for her, and somebody else made a post saying how many times has zoe been in love now? well what about sharon? she's been in and out of love so many times, she's pratically loved every man in the square, she's had her taste of been in love and in a serious relasonship zoe hadn't ,and dennis! before his apparent love for sharon all he did was make his way round the women of walford, if their love is/was so strong why be with other people when they claim they love each other? remember sharon and james? why has it took them so long to realise that they should actually be together?

You are totally right alisha zoe is old an enough to know what is right from wrong and is also old enough to take responsibilities for her actions she made the decision to tell the lie she is old enough to pay for the consquences her lie borought she might of been manipulated but know one held a gun to her head she did it out of her own free will and she isnt as innocent as she make out to be

She could of stop it at any time when she found out den was only doing it to hurt dennis for sharon leaving but she decied not to her own needs got in the way of doing the right think or shall i say her desperation and selfishness got in the way of her thinking about anyone else once again

But one thing i would say is zoe is very naive for her age still when she talk about dennis for example she say i couldnt make him love me when i think of that word i think you dont make someone love you it should come naturally but i suppose zoe doesnt understand the concept of love very well for 21 year old. :lol:

He did tell her though. 2 months into their relationship he told her to her face that he didn't love her and that he still thought of Sharon. How much more blatant can you get and throughout their whole 8 month relationship he never once told her that he loved her. Surely any person with half a brain would know that the whole thing was a shame. Zoe however lived in this false hope that he one day could and ignored all the warnings for people, including her mum Kat and even Dennis but she took that risk and she's learned the hard way. The way Zoe has been used and abused by men in her life, she would learn from her mistakes and grow stronger, not repeat them. I have lost count of the amount of times that I’ve seen her get with a bloke who was in love with someone else and when they dumped her she would be on the street crying. Its exactly what you've said though she's 'tried' to make him love her but that’s not good enough. You either love someone or you don't and you can't force a feeling. That’s something that Zoe should have learned.

The difference between Sharon and Zoe love factor is that Sharon is in her mid thirties so of course she will have some men in the past that she loved. Zoe however falls in love with every bloke she claps eyes on. Jamie, Anthony, Ronny, Dennis. Sharon has had 7 relationships in 20 years and these aren’t just men she picked up from a club and flashed her assets to get their attention, but people she’s had deep feelings for. She was married to one and engaged to another. Being with every man in the square in very extreme I feel. She has been with Grant, Phil, Dennis, Tom and had a couple of short flings when she was younger. That’s hardly putting it about and then you have females like Kat and Sam. Need I say anymore? Dennis has had a taste of a serious relationship with Sharon. Zoe, nope but that’s because she sets herself up for a fall time and time again. She keeps going for men who are emotionally attached. At least the majority of the men that Sharon's been with have loved her and visa versa. She doesn't go for men because of thier looks and staus inthe sqaure. With Jaimie (blond floppy hair, popular boy at school) Anthony (sophisticated older man who happend to be her mothers ex) Ronny (Mr DJ) Dennis (older bad boy who she saw sprinting around the squqare one day and though that she was in love with him).

About your last point -Sharon and Dennis have always loved each other but it was never a case of them realising that they were meant to be together. They knew they were. Firstly when Dennis chose family over Sharon, that hurt Sharon deep. He promised her the world and after some words with Den he finished it with her. He thought that he wanted a family more but it became apparent afterwards that his love for Sharon out-weighted that for a father so he begged for her back several time. By then though, she rejected him because she was scared that he was going to hurt her again and you could hardly blame her for that. As they say 'once bitten twice shy'. Sharon went with James because she wanted to get on with her life and stop moping around. She knew that she loved Dennis but wanted to erase him from her mind. Den was the main contributory dynamic in their relationship, not Zoe and had he been not present they would have been together long ago. :)

i didnt mean it like that i just ment that she is / was young and hasnt got the resposibilities and hasnt has as much love experionce as say a 30/35 year old it waz uterly wrong the way she treated dennis but den was threatining that he would tell dennis about the whole preggers thing and that would end the relationship blackmailing a girl in her situation and what shes gone through is just wrong and i dont think zoe is as bad as you all put her out to be dens the evil one !

Den was not threatening to tell Dennis about the whole pregnancy lie, not once did he say that. He manipulated her into bed but she wasn't ‘blackmailed’ by any means. He gave her a choice all the way through. He suggested the idea and kept on it but in the end it was her choice to go through with it. Not once did he say 'sleep with me or I'll tell Dennis?' Therefore I don't construe it as blackmail. In fact Den gave her many opportunities to back out and said that 'you're here because you want to be' but she did it anyway. While Den did all the talking, she did all the walking.

I see your point about her being young and there for not having the same mental stability as Sharon but she is still an adult, whereas Michele Fowler was a minor (16) so I could generally sympathise with her :) I don't think Zoe is evil though and I don’t think anyone is implying that she is but she does share blame in what happened in the whole saga. Therefore she bears some responsibility, as do Sharon, Dennis and Chrissie but her behaviour has been the worst, but not as bad as Dens. You're right he was the real evil one.

thanks kat 4 alfie, i think exactly the same as you about zoe, she no longer had her mother around and so she became even more attached to dennis, or the infatuation with dennis, she is still only young and her past must still make her quite vulnerable, den minupulated her to such an extent that she aborted his baby, and had a nervous breakdown, she is constantly ordered about like people such as chrissie and den, she is not a a bad person and has been through so much and she's still only 21, and remember dennis still lead her on, by choosing her and then rejecting her again this made zoe even more confused than ever when he's been getting possesive over her flirting with over men, and then putting her in the freezer! lol

no actually he did blackmail her near the end of the storline about the pregnancy thing and keepin it from dennis. he did say that if she did not tell den then he would so that then zoe would have to sleep with him for dennis to stay with her and also den wanted that too .blackmailed/threatened.

yeah thats exactly it. and people say that they dont like her wineing and moaning , but who wouldnt cry and be scared after all shes been through ? she found out kat was her mum , she left home cuz she thought that it was her foult that kat took those drugs (she thought kat was dead), her mum took her man (anthony) and they were always fightin over him , her mums left home when she was the only one zoe could actually talk to and kat understud ,she was beening pushed around and blackmailed/threatened by den : he threatened that he would tell dennis, she alegidly killed den , and now chrissy is pushing her around , and sam is lieing to her (one of few who she could trust , and who is a good friend in her eyes) !

No I'm sorry but you got it wrong. Den did not once threaten to tell Dennis the truth. I remember correctly. All he did was manipuate her. There was no ultimatum there but psyhcoligical manipulation. He gave her a choice all the way and didn't say 'sleep with me or I'll tell Dennis' She did what she did because she didn't want to lose him and therefore only thought about herself. He said 'if Dennis isn't up for the job, then I'll have to do it' and thats when he continued to manipulate her but in the end it was her choice. She is not a school girl but an adult and an immature one at that.

Considering what she's been through you would mature from it. Zoe hasnt had it that hard. I can think of current characters a whole lot worse and killed to have had a life like Zoe's.

Zoe didn't have it easy but 'hard' is not one of them. I think the main problematic issue in her childhood was discovering that her sister was her mother and her uncle her dad and all the surrounding issues but that’s about it. When it comes down to it she was bought up and raised in a large loving strong family unit and spoilt as a child. Not everyone gets that privilege and as for her previous failures in her partners, well that’s what you get when you chase men who are in love with other women. She shares a lot in the blame but ironically enough you never learns from it. The abortion was a decision she made but if I'm to have any sympathy for her it would be her thinking that she killed Den but that’s all.

At Zoe's age, Sharon had just buried her dad and been rejected from her natural parents. But instead of behaving childishly like Zoe, she decided to make a life for herself and move on. Also during Sharon's childhood Den was having his affairs while she had to play mother to Angie when she came back sloshed after her nights out on the binge. Then she had to later bury her later but first her dad. She was left with no one. Then you have Sonia Jackson and look how mature she is for her age. Her big extended family left her one by one at 14 including her mother, got pregnant at 15, had an adoption, her fiancé got killed but instead of acting immaturely she used her goals as a tool. She remained level headed and strong. She has shown more maturity for someone who has suffered a whole lot more. Then you have Kat who was molested by her uncle at 13 and had to keep that a secret. Worst of all though is Dennis whose his mum was an alcoholic (also like Sharons) and used to get her boyfriends to tie him up to a radiator with no food or water and throw him down the stairs. (this was what he told Vicki in rage once) Not only that, he got sexually abused by one of his carers in his children’s home. Characters like Stacey and Billy have also had it a whole lot worse than princess Zoe.

In comparison to some, it doesn’t look half bad. Zoe has always had a family who loved and doted on her and half the things that happened were things that she was not blameless for.(especially as far as men were concerned) so no I’m not at all convinced she had it overly hard.

exactly and she became a child prostitute , and got confused about her sexuality and had that short fling with kelly and snogged her, and then kelly left to go to spain ! if any of the stuff that zoe had/has done i would of gone over the rails and left home .
she has/had coped with it all very well , and i credit her .

No I'm sorry but you got it wrong. Den did not once threaten to tell Dennis the truth. I remember correctly. All he did was manipuate her. There was no ultimatum there but psyhcoligical manipulation. He gave her a choice all the way and didn't say 'sleep with me or I'll tell Dennis' She did what she did because she didn't want to lose him and therefore only thought about herself. He said 'if Dennis isn't up for the job, then I'll have to do it' and thats when he continued to manipulate her but in the end it was her choice. She is not a school girl but an adult and an immature one at that.

Considering what she's been through you would mature from it. Zoe hasnt had it that hard. I can think of current characters a whole lot worse and killed to have had a life like Zoe's.
i did not get it wrong , have you thought for a monent that you might have ? i remender it correctly , he threatened her in a nice not very odviouse way . he told her that he didnt want dennis to get together with sharron otherwise he will tell dennis about the baby !!!!!!! cuz odvo zoe will not let him do that so slept with him . you were wrong . he said that if you dont tell dennis about the baby then i will ! she did what any young immature adult would have done with all she has gone through , and didnt want to lose dennis like she has with loads of the people in her life death and departure ......... kat.........moe......lyn ......... her 'mum'............kelly........jamie.........'uncle ' harry and anthony truman ! that was before chrissy made her give up the baby !

I totally disagree. Fair enough she loved Dennis and she didn't want to lose him but it's was selfish! Purely selfish!
So she's lost alot of people in her life and she didn't want to lose Dennis but it was painfully obvious that Dennis didn't love her and she knew that. She knew she was second best and she chose to live with it.
Just because she'd been through alot gives her no excuse to ruin peoples lives....What about Chrissie? Before any of this happened with Den's murder what about her? She stood by Den and Zoe knew that and even though Chrissie had always been nice to Zoe she thought it was fine to sleep with her husband?

She did the same with Sonia and Jamie when she was younger. Yes, she's been through alot and it's sad but I don't think any young immature adult would do that. She's not immature anyway, she's heading on for twenty years old. Desperate...not immature.

No he didn't. :nono: I wish someone else can back me up here who remembers it as well as I do. Den did not say it and if I'm wrong I'll apologise and eat my words! I'm a huge shannis fan and therefore really captivated in the story etc so my ears were glued to every scene relating to them, including all the scenes with Den. He manipulated and used his powers of persuasion but he did not say do it or else. I remember him saying that if you tell him you're pregnant, he'll go straight to Sharon and that’s not mealy the same thing. There was NO blackmail what’s so ever -just lots of manipulation. He offered her a way out and she took it.

Like I said Zoe hasn't gone through alot and even if there was some one really immature like her in their 20's I can't them stooping that low. God help them if they did. I agree with everything squarelady has said too. The only person that has left her and come back was Kat. Jamie and Anthony were ex's and they were not that important to her so I don't see how her losing them would upset her. By the time Lynee left Zoe was 20. What's she gonna do? cry herself to sleep? As for Kelly, well she was gonna fly the nest someday. I've had important people come and go in my life too.

and Chrissie didn't 'make' her do anything. Who signed the papers here? Who said yes when Den suggested that they sleep together. Zoe is not an innocent victim but a selfish cow who rarely thinks beyond her own needs.

I agree that Zoe did do it for selfish reasons, but I am very sure that after she slept with Den once, he did blackmail her into been with him again. He did treaten to tell Dennis and said it would drive him back to sharon so inorder to stop that Zoe must sleep with him to get pregnant...

No matter how much manipulation a 21 year old is under, no one (or the majority) would stoop to those desperate measures and I don't at all buy that 'anyone' in Zoe's circumstances would have done the same. The storyline with her and Den was based on sensationalism, therefore lacked realism.

he always gave her the choice... if she really didn't want to do it then she could have just walked away and told Dennis the truth... squarelady's right... she just didn't know when to stop...

I was going to bed but I had to pop in and agree. You can see she was brought up in a house that revolved around her when you look at the way she treats Stacey. If she's not the centre of attention she gets stroppy and childish.

Now with zoe leaving and shannis able to be together the producers and viewers especially me will realise that sharon and dennis are just like any other egular couple and will grow boring as there is no longer anyone tying to split them up.

squarelady
04-06-2005, 18:14
It's a totally different situation. Sharon was in turmoil trying to accept the relationship with Dennis. She didn't know what to do and Den being back put a spanner in the works. She didn't keep him in suspense, she didn't know herself and as soon as she did she told him. Sharon's given up everything for Dennis.

If Zoe really loved Dennis she wouldn't have done half the stuff she did. It's not love, it's obsession.

I hope they do become a regular couple like any other. Sharon deserves to be happy and Dennis is the man for her. It'd be nice to see a couple just chugging along without complications for a bit. It's what Shannis fans have always wanted. Sharon and Dennis to be together with no complications. It may not happen for a while yet (with everything going on with Den) but when it does I'm sure people who were interested in the storyline won't find it boring!

even though dennis didnt lie to zoe to the extent she did but he still messed her around something bad, if it wasnt for the watts' zoe's life wouldnt have turned out like this, she could do with someone who is upfront and honest with her, and then maybe she'll be honest with them. And people keep going on about zoe and jamie and saying how awfull she was then by stealing him from sonia. But she was what? only 17/18 and jamie messed her about then too, sharon's affair with phill was a lot more seeded than that -grants own brother! and sharon was much much older than zoe was then. Sharon seems to be ALWAYS in love with someone.... how do we know its actual love with dennis? what will happen when grant comes back? she will then probably "suddenly realise" that she's in love with him again!

Dennis didn't mess Zoe about. He told her on the day of the fair ground accident that he loved Sharon and that she'd always be second best and she chose to accept that.

EXACTLY... she KNEW he LOVED Sharon... it's her oun fault for staying with him in the first place... she should have left then... but she continued to deny the fact... he LOVED Sharon... she knew that...

she's so used to getting what she want's, when she want's it... because she's been so spoilt growing up that she thinks everything has to be her way... AND IT IS NOT... I agree she DID have a bad childhood... But she can't continously use that as the reason for her mistakes... she always had the choice to tell Dennis the truth... but she CHOSE not to... she needs to take responability for HER actions... then people MIGHT care

Okay dennis might of cheated on zoe with sharon in the end but they were in love fair enough it must of been hurtful to zoe but dennis was honest with zoe he told her at the fairground incident that he loved sharon and she not get her hopes up and shouldnt expect anything from him and by zoe knowing that she made the decision to be with dennis.

Also before sharon and dennis had the affair zoe had warning signs all over the place one of them was that night in the club when zoe asked dennis to tell sharon that he didnt love her and to tell her that zoe was the one he wanted he never told her that should of been a clear indication for zoe to get out of the relationship but she didnt even kat her mother told her as well i think she knew dennis and sharon were in love as well as she said they really looked in love when they spent the night in the nick. :lol:

I totally agree with all your point there JudeJude. Dennis should have ended it ages ago and he is emotionally immature in the way he handles things. He goes of in a huff and takes the back door when things a get a little too heated for his liking. However, I do think life has made him what he is. Dennis never had a chance of a proper childhood so he is living it out through his adult years, if that makes sense. :) This is why he behaves the way that he does He has had it far worse than any characters in the square and Zoe's life looks like a bed of roses in comparison. Dennis’s character is an interesting one and a complex one at that. His past experiences have an obvious significance to his behaviour now.

Going back to what Leanne said. I disagree. When Zoe slept with Jamie- she was selfish. Regardless of age, she saw that he was already in a relationship with another girl but it didn’t stop her from getting what she wanted and then there was Ronny who she got with from the second he dumped her best mate Kelly. That shows very little in her loyalty as a mate.

As for Sharon, as your 14 years old I doubt you could remember much of the sharongate storyline. :) I only remember bits vaguely. Anyway, when she had an affair with Phil it wasn’t for selfish reasons. Back then she was in a volatile marriage where Grant would smash glasses around and get hysterical. Also he went out for nights on the town and leave her alone while he used to go out sloshed. Her marriage hit the rocks and Phil was the only bit of companionship she had. Her mum was drinking herself to death half way across the world and Den was 'dead'. She seeked comfort in that and that’s how the affair started. When Grant was in prison they both wanted to tell him when he got out but then it got really complicated when they split and he got with Kathy. What I'm trying to say, (after all this waffle) is that when she went with Phil it was more to do with her feelings and loneliness and not selfishness Also Grant was no model husband so I lack sympathy for him in that respect. Sharon is no angle by any means but I don’t paint her the same way as Zoe. out of 20 years Sharon has told 4 of her partners that she loved them and meant it so thats not all. Grant she loved but her love for Dennis out-wighs that. Sharon was the love of Grants live but he was never hers. When she talks about it, there are unhappy memeories and a part of her past. I do think that there will be tention but I doubt she would leave Dennis for him. She has shown more for him, than any of her previous partners.

Funny I feel the exact opposite

Since the storyline turned into a dire love triangle, the whole thing lost it's momentum. It was so predicable and repetitive. Dennis was to-ing and fro-ing between Sharon and Zoe for months and it was the same thing all over again. When Zoe was with Dennis, from my experience talking other on various forums about this, people actually lost interest. Firstly, Dennis and Zoe had no chemistry and people got so annoyed with her bunny boiling ways. Not only that Dennis became a bit of a wet fish and I love Dennis but his interaction with her did him no favours in that character development department. It just seemed so contrived and very few people wanted them together while there was and still is a massive support network for shannis.

Sharon and Dennis are two very complex characters. They don’t need a third party to spice it up. Den doing that was great. Zoe-nope, boring. With Dennis sexual abuse, Sharon’s infertility, Den's death and both thier psychological problems there is more than enough to keep them going as a couple and they certainly don't run the stale factor as much as others given the individual depth to both.

Also why should have Sharon accepted his apologies after the way he treated her? He dumped her after promising her the world. Should she just jump back in the sac with him after a couple of request? He hurt her, which is why she stalled. Also the fact that she couldn’t give him a child also played a part in that. I don’t believe Zoe loved Dennis. As someone else has pointed out, it was more obsessive and that’s just not the same.

I don't like Zoe...and I've only skim read thread but Dennis is emotionally unbalanced, which is to be expected considering his past, Sharon was his first proper relationship, and he loves her. Maybe he shouldn't have been with Zoe, but she knew he loved Sharon and she still wanted to be with him. So Zoe was as much in the wrong as he was. If she didn't want to be with a bloke who was in love with another woman then she shouldn't have tried to get back with him after the fair...

Dennis had convinced himself that he could never be with Sharon because it was wrong. For his and her own sake he tried to make a conscience effort to leave Sharon behind him because Den manipulated him into thinking that was the right thing to do. He tried things with Zoe but she was far to possesive. He practically drove her back to Sharon and she could see she was doing it. She couldn't control herself.

As for Dennis being emotionally unbalanced, yes. Due to the child abuse he's suffered and his past experiences he is. Sharon understand this. She knows everything about him and loves him for who he is. Zoe doesn't have the first idea who the real Dennis is!

But Dennis was trying to bury his feelings for Sharon and move on with Zoe, he didn't set out to intentionally hurt Zoe!

Treacle
06-06-2005, 00:02
He knew he loved Sharon though and it was true love, he can't escape from that no matter what he does. Zoe was always going to get hurt. They are both immature, that's a fair and reasonable comment to make.

I think they ruined Zoe's characher by dragging her into it all. They should have left Dennis and Sharon to get on with it (they had enough problems with Den). There was no need to get Zoe involved.

ElectricToes
06-06-2005, 00:04
Zoe is immature [and in my opinion lacking in brain power]
Dennis is immature, and emotionally unstable
But Zoe knew Dennis didn't love her so it was obvious she was going to get hurt in the end, it was her decision to stay with him.

squarelady
06-06-2005, 00:09
They are both immature, that's a fair and reasonable comment to make.

Yes but they are both immature in very different ways.

Zoe's immature because she's been wrapped in cotton wool her whole life. They saw her as being a product of Kat's mistake and they spoiled her. They made her self obsessed by making her a centre of attention in the family to cover up for what had happened. Things just got worse when she found out Kat was her mum. It turned her whole world upside down and since then she's been paranoid about secrets. She was desperate for Dennis to love her no matter what. She was immature because she didn't understand what a real relationship was about and it was a shame that she didn't have enough respect to walk away rather than settle for second best.

Dennis was abused as a child. He's emotionally immature because he never had love. His mother disowned him because she hated his father and his father disappeared. When he came to the square Sharon and Vicki were the first people who accepted him as family. He didn't feel comfortable with it and although he thought he had loving feelings for Sharon when Den came back Den managed to manipulate him into thinking otherwise. He didn't know what love was meant to feel like and all he ever wanted was a father that loved him. Sharon and Dennis both fell into the trap of giving everything up for their father. Dennis did realise alot later that he loved Sharon as a girlfriend and not a sister.

I think out of anyone Sharon is the one who could help him work through the problems of his child abuse and really keep him on the right track and he'll look after her too. I think they are a perfect match and I think the longer he's with her the more he's becomming less emotionally immature and more aware of what real love is. I love Shannis because I love watching that develop. Simple as...

ElectricToes
06-06-2005, 00:13
I totally agree. Sharon brings out a side to Dennis that no one else can do, he's developing emotionally, and that brings something new to EE as well, it's very rare you get a character as emotionally unstable as he is and so Shannis and the relationship of the makes excellent viewing not only because they are a great couple and have amazing chemistry but because it's bring something new and powerful to the show!

I'm not a fan but I dont hate them either. The trouble was the storyline started to grate once Zoe got dragged into it, there was enough issues going on as it was without a getting her involved (I think someone has already said that). Also I dont think it helped with scriptwriters having to write scripts to fit in with actors breaks etc

I do wonder if Sharon would still be with Tom if he was still alive and Dennis came along??

I agree with you again.

I always thought that the introduction of Zoe was a huge mistake to the storyline.
Her presence was unnecessary and she should have never been pushed to the forefront. Back in April 2004, there was enough storylines for the pair to keep them going and they had already hit jackpot with Den's opposition on them as a couple. He made far better viewing than irritating Zoe. It annoyed me how her character replaced Den's position as ‘third party’. I know technically it was always Den who was the main contributory factor, but his perception of them was shoved aside and instead we had a rather flat love triangle which beared no resemblance to the original plot line. I would have preferred to see them both stand up to Den and him using his malicious ways to keep them apart than Sharon/Dennis/Zoe and the personality transplants that tptb performed.

I personally don’t think Sharon would have lasted with Tom, even if Dennis wasn’t around. He was all around nice guy but Sharon needs someone who can tame and excite her (thats Dennis :wub: ). Also Dennis was right when he told her 'if he hadn't have died, he only would have ended up boring you to death.' Very insensitive but true. :)

I totally disagree. Fair enough she loved Dennis and she didn't want to lose him but it's was selfish! Purely selfish!
So she's lost alot of people in her life and she didn't want to lose Dennis but it was painfully obvious that Dennis didn't love her and she knew that. She knew she was second best and she chose to live with it.
Just because she'd been through alot gives her no excuse to ruin peoples lives....What about Chrissie? Before any of this happened with Den's murder what about her? She stood by Den and Zoe knew that and even though Chrissie had always been nice to Zoe she thought it was fine to sleep with her husband?

She did the same with Sonia and Jamie when she was younger. Yes, she's been through alot and it's sad but I don't think any young immature adult would do that. She's not immature anyway, she's heading on for twenty years old. Desperate...not immature.
he told her that he loved her !

kat 4 alfie
07-06-2005, 18:04
No he didn't. :nono: I wish someone else can back me up here who remembers it as well as I do. Den did not say it and if I'm wrong I'll apologise and eat my words! I'm a huge shannis fan and therefore really captivated in the story etc so my ears were glued to every scene relating to them, including all the scenes with Den. He manipulated and used his powers of persuasion but he did not say do it or else. I remember him saying that if you tell him you're pregnant, he'll go straight to Sharon and that’s not mealy the same thing. There was NO blackmail what’s so ever -just lots of manipulation. He offered her a way out and she took it.

Like I said Zoe hasn't gone through alot and even if there was some one really immature like her in their 20's I can't them stooping that low. God help them if they did. I agree with everything squarelady has said too. The only person that has left her and come back was Kat. Jamie and Anthony were ex's and they were not that important to her so I don't see how her losing them would upset her. By the time Lynee left Zoe was 20. What's she gonna do? cry herself to sleep? As for Kelly, well she was gonna fly the nest someday. I've had important people come and go in my life too.

and Chrissie didn't 'make' her do anything. Who signed the papers here? Who said yes when Den suggested that they sleep together. Zoe is not an innocent victim but a selfish cow who rarely thinks beyond her own needs.
Good riddance to her!

She threatened to leave with his baby so to stop her going he said that he loved her and she fell for it but then not long after he caught her in bed.

So Zoe was willing to lie to Dennis, the baby and everyone for the rest of thier life just because she didn't want to be hated? That's rather selfish. Anyway this is Walford -people are always hated.

Exactly -she could have said it was a false alarm. This happens to plenty of women. She didn't have to tell him about Den propositioning for sex if that was the case. Sure she would have lost Dennis but what’s worse -sleeping with his dad for selfish needs or thinking about the welfare of her unborn child to be, Chrisse and Dennis.

This is what infuriated me in the whole saga. Zoe was all 'me, me, me' and was painted as a poor innocent victim, but in fact would go to any desperate measure if it meant getting what she wanted, regardless of who it may hurt in the process. When she jumped into bed with Den did she not think that she was potentially destroying a marriage between Chrissie and Den and ruining a father/son relationship which Dennis has wanted since childhood? Nope. It was all about her and I couldn't stand her blaming Den. Don’t get me wrong, Den was the main driving force in this and has acted more malicious but Zoe was there too and she agreed to it. I remember many scenes when Den made it clear to her that you’re hear because you want to be and it’s your choice. She does it, and the next blame him. She never could take responsibility for her own action.

.She knew exactly what she was doing from day one but did it anyway because she was blinded by what she would gain from doing the deed! To hell with everyone else. :rolleyes:

I completely agree, and she made herself out to be completely innocent and a victim to her family!! She didn't try to stop them thinking that Dennis abandoned her - she could have at least defended him a little.
She also chose to have a abortion but told everyone she had a miscarriage - so her family roll on more sympathy!! She could have told them about the abortion, saying that she didn't want to raise the baby without a father or something!
True a lot of bad things have happened to Zoe, but most of these have been her own fault and she has to deal with the consequences. She can't just keep letting people think that she was the only victim in this whole saga!!

Zoe Slater's exit from Walford is a full page article this morning in Page 3 of the Mirror. The article promises some high drama next week on the Square, when Zoe tries to make a break from Walford for a new job in Ibiza with best friend Kelly.

However, as everyone wishes her well, her cheery send off party turns into a nightmare with the return of Sharon and Dennis who have come back to prove to Den they are a real couple.

Trouble kicks off big style in the pub as a furious Kat demands to know why Dennis left her daughter pregnant and alone. As things quickly spiral out of control, Kat makes a swing at Dennis but ends up chinning poor hapless mechanic Garry. "Can someone get hiim out of here, before I pull his face off!" screams Kat.

Its crunch time for Zoe as she reveals to a stunned Queen Vic, about her affair with Den, the real father of her child and about the abortion. The shocked Slaters storm from the pub, with Kat frogmarching Zoe back to the house, where she locks her in her bedroom until she can get some answers from her.

"Blimey, I only came in for a ploughman" splutters a stunned Minty lol

The article goes on to say there are some great scenes between Kat and Zoe. The week takes place over one revelation filled day which rocks the Square, and leaves Kat physically sick, when her daughter finally reveals to Kat the real whereabouts of Den Watts.

"So where is he? wheres Den?" demands Kat

"He aint here, he aint anywhere, he's dead" replies Zoe. Who further stuns Kat by revealing Chrissie murdered him and that Zoe had a hand in it also.

There is a picture then of Zoe leaving with the Albert Square sign tucked under her arm.

Michelle said "I really like how they wrote her out and have left the door open for her return"

I wonder if Kelly is going to be Zoe's next victim..I mean partner! Remember the kiss when the van crashed in Scotland?

It would be nice if Dennis slapped Zoe, but he won't as he's too much of a gent..

Minty and Gary are another very commical couple, I suppose in acute way there is an air of sexiness about them...

oe Makes Dramatic Exit

Zoe Slater will leave Albert Square in dramatic fashion - and typically it centres around a packed Vic and a bag full of confessions.

Her emotional departure for sunny Ibiza comes only after she reveals Dirty Den was the father of her unborn child - and that she witnessed his death.

She tells the busy boozer the former landlord was killed by his lover Chrissie - but with help from her and Sam Mitchell.

Zoe (Michelle Ryan) has already decided to leave the Square when she blurts out the news next week.

It all kicks off when Sharon turns up with former lover Dennis.

Zoe asks everyone to be quiet, before saying: "There's something you don't know about Den."

Then stuff really hits the proverbial fan.

She reveals all about the baby, saying: "If anyone's to blame for this mess, it's me."

After the revelation, Zoe's mum Kat demands to know where Den is, and Zoe says: "He's not here, he's not anywhere. He's dead."

Actress Michelle says of the episode: "The way she went was very clever - and I'm glad they left the door open for her to return."

I think she just tells the packed pub about sleeping with Den, the baby and the abortion. I could be wrtong though. I think she only tells Kat that Chrissie killed Den!

She doesn't tell the whole pub she killed Den she just tells them Den was the father of her baby and she had an abortion, Chrissie screams for calm etc...

This all sounds excellent, no wonder it's on top at the moment in terms of quality, EastEnders really is ahead of it's game. It'll soon take back the top soap crown that it enjoyed for 17 years.

Do you think Michelle Ryan is doing the right thing leaving the square? she says that 5 years is long enough, but I'm not so sure it is. I don't think her character has made a big enough impact on the square, she's had her fair share of storylines, but is it enough to set her up?

Everyone found Jack Ryder attractive but he wasn't as good an actor as he thought he was and he fell flat on his face. Now he is going to be appearing in 'Family Affairs' it's like a recipe for disaster. Nothing against the soap, but it's hardly a step up the ladder. I bet he feels really humilliated.

I think she is. She's young, pretty and engaged and has a lot of offers. She doesn't want to get stuck and tied down in one place for the rest of her life. This way she's got a really good step on the career lady and she can move onwards and upwards.

Plus, I now hate the character so I'm not enjoying her on screen anymore at all!

I think the scene in the toilets is continued on a bit - Zoe prob tells Kat more about Chrissie's involvement in the murder and her abortion because this gives Kat a reason to hate Chrissie. Also, there is a picture of Zoe hugging Chrissie so they must make up.

Prison does that to you though I expect. Kat went it alone and coped in prison on her own, so it hardened her a bit. I did think she could have told Zoe that she loved her too though when she left. Anyway, Kat speaks to Chrissie and Sam next week, forgives Sam because Zoe had, but tells Chrissie she will get revenge for ruining Zoes life!!

Chrissie only owns 50% of the pub though and could never sell or give away the entire thing without Den's signature which she would have to forge should she need to get rid of the whole pub. The most she could sell is the half she owns but even then I doubt anybody would buy it and enter into buisness with a partner who's vanished off the face of the earth. They'll never know their buisness parter is actually quite close :D

I don't know why Sam even got involved, she hadn't hit him with the doorstop and nor did she have to help bury him. Silly girl! Zoe on the other hand had clobbered him but only to protect Chrissie so she again should not have got further involved. Chrissie however murdered him she would get the murder charge and a charge for covering it up as well. They should all have gone to the police and claimed self defence.

Wouldn't have made for a better storyline than this though :)

i dont get why chrissie hasnt forged the signature...it would be so easy then again im sure sharon would suspect something...
