Plus you now have to be properly qualified and have a licensing certificate from your local authority. You can't just "name" someone.

Sorry to reply to my own post...but I've had another thought. Roxy could hold an alcohol licence from her days of running the Queen Vic before and R&R's, so it is possible she could take over.

I was thinking that too, parkerman

A personal licence holder is supposed to notify any change of adress. Does she even have a permanent residence?

Very good acting from Danielle Harold when they took the baby away, had me in tears and that does not happen often

Ow that was heartbraking.... There are tears on my ipad. Danielle did a good job portraying Lola. I felt the love she has for Lexi. Kudos

Top acting from Danielle as Lola

So Ben is the daddy Phil will be proud now so he already took Jay from Billy and now he will take Lexi too it seems

Although I agree with what you say, I find this whole story line of the close monitoring by the social worker to be ridiculous. The social services would not take such a keen interest in Lola. The baby is not "at risk" in the sense it is used by social workers; they know she is not in danger of mistreatment or abuse. Lola needs support not criticism, which is what they would try to do - give support. A social worker would not criticise the fact the washing up's not been done for example. A social worker would not inspect Lexi's bum, she's not a health professional. Neither the police nor the social services have the right to take away Lexi if all they are doing is calling Lola in for questioning. She would either be taken with or left with Billy or Patrick. And as for visiting once a day, is the caseload in the East End of London really that small that the social worker can do this? Does she only have a handful of cases? Especially as I've already said, Lexi is not at risk of physical harm. I find the while thing just too ridiculous. I can image social workers sitting at home watching this and absolutely seething that they are seen as the bad guys and not as people trying to help.

...you don't want to read that all again - even though I do feel quite strongly about it!
