kat son's or sharon's real daddy

how predictable alfie won lottery, wasted storyline for him

I'm happy for them, finally began liking them again in the latest episodes.

I'm feeling quite indifferent about the lottery win - probably because I was expecting it. A much more exciting outcome would have been to have made it a shock for us viewers as well as Kat and Alfie.

I am glad they have some good times ahead though. Kat certainly deserves it, but it still sticks in my craw that Alfie's got away with, and even been rewarded for, the arson. He hasn't even lost the wife he nearly burned to death! I don't remember him apologising profusely either, just making excuses.

They did have some lovely scenes in Tuesday's episode but the arson's spoiled Alfie for me for the time being I'm afraid. I guess it's lucky that soap viewers (including myself) tend to have short memories about most character transgressions!

They should invest wisely like buying a house and business, stability for their kids

Really nice to see happy scenes in EastEnders for a change.

I don't blame Rebecca for telling Tina that Sonia and Martin slept together. It was a betrayal but it was understandable. Her parents seem to be going out of their way to make the split as stressful as possible for her.

What was Sonia thinking of describing her sex life to a mortified Carol?

Winston is definitely back then. He even spoke this time!

One other thing. I don't understand this business with Shirley selling her share of the pub. As far as I understand the conversation she had with Buster, she put the price up by 20% because she hoped that would prevent Mick from buying it. Why doesn't she just say she's not selling? She doesn't have to sell her share if she doesn't want to.

I was thinking exactly the same thing but I don't know anything about business. Can partners force out another partner? We don't even know what percentage Shirley owns (as far as I'm aware).

Re Winston. His Wikipedia entry earlier this year said he filmed his last episode in November (I think). That has now been removed and his period in Eastenders has been changed to 1986 - Date.
