Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

[Dazzle]

I loved the puppy scenes. I thought it made phil and shirley really endearing and heartfelt. you'd never think in a million years theyd be smiling / crying over a puppy. it genuinely felt like the pup couldve been a baby the way phil was holding it this showed he'd do anything for her sharon's face when phil walked off was classic too! ew that they kissed after though, thats gross lol

I loved the puppy scenes too They were a genius juxtoposition to the tragedy of the rest of the episode in my opinion. Really heartwarming, which is very rare for Eastenders

i didn't like tonight's episode

a beautifully crafted episode. the opening scene was very powerful. the silence was deafening. thursday's installment is probably one of the best episodes of not only eastenders but any continuing drama i have seen. i can only think of one other episode that had this effect on me and that was when carol broke down after the death of billy.

The whole story line is leaving me cold, shame it's going to drag on until next February!

I couldn't agree more

I found the episode totally mesmerising. Setting it completely in the Beale house, and especially the silent first few minutes, was a brave decision and it really paid off. It didn't feel like a soap at all (I can understand if some people didn't like that). It felt real.

The best episode of EE since I started watching again early this year

the scenes with ian and phil were almost too painful to watch and ian running after cindy in the car was heartbreaking. nice touch having nicola cowper playing gina again.

More dreadful acting from Ian last night, even my hubby remarked on how awful it was! I can't take much more of it, so I think I think I'll take a rest from EE for a while.
