Eastender current episode discussion IV

glenda kissing jack oh no very tricky and yucky

Didn't take long for little Miss Abi ( a.k.a.Walfords Heston Blumenthall ) to storm out. I think Shirley misunderstood the six pound figure Mick stated for lunch food ,judging by her cheese sandwich, and went for weight rather than price.

Personally I'd much prefer a Shirley type cheese sandwich to an Abi one. However it is symbolic of the ongoing battle between the old Eastend and the modern trendy place it's becoming.

Good analogy Mr.P. Shirley can be in charge of sandwich making in our house whenever she wishes.

I am not a fan of Lee's depression storyline now adding domestic abuse because Whitney while unlikable is the victim, I guess anger is now part of his depression and he has to lash out when pushed, they really should not be together

I think this has moved it too far away from his depression. He's messed up - but some people who leave the army have issues that they find very hard to deal with. But this bouncing from suicide to slapping his (albeit very annoying wife... I mean, they've written her as a complete airhead - pawning her rings to pay for a night out... something I think was really foolish considering the debt Lee's got himself into and the issues his dad is having with the pub) is really horrid.

Are they writing it that Whitney is also having a break down?

It wouldn't surprise me to be honest since she's under an enormous amount of stress. Her "happy ever after" has been destroyed within months. Her solution to Lee's problems of a night out paid by pawning her rings was a very bad call (though to be fair it was suggested by Johnny), but she was genuinely trying to help him. Unfortunately, she has zero understanding or insight into his frame of mind (which isn't uncommon).

I think your point about Lee being ex-army is a good one. We know from countless news reports that they have a greater chance of mental health problems, homelessness etc after returning to civilian life.
