Where've I seen Victor's wife before? Bugged me the entire episode.
im sure she was in holby city. her name was janice im sure
Yeh she was Janice in peadeactrics when Holby had the Childrens department. I thought the Ian stuff was quite funny, it was a little bit different. I felt really sorry for the real Jane.
And for heavens sakes the sooner Ruby leaves the better in my opinion. She is so dreadful.
I enjoyed last nights episode. Can't wait to see Ian's face tonight when he realises Jane is there.. Does anyone know who uses to live in the Flat Al was in.. it looks very very familiar
I thought it was maybe Lauras old flat but im not sure. I think its a good idea that they have intrduced this Al as its really making me wonder what else is to him. Ians face should be a picture tonight.
Al reminds me a bit of Dennis.. he is very private, says little but knows a lot.. should be a good addition if they keep him

I really enjoyed that episode. It was great how they made Sean's presence felt by him being silent all the way through, until he said 'Stacey' at the end. Those two are going to be amazing together! I can tell!
I even enjoyed the Ian stuff tonight, which was a huge turn of events for me! How is he going to get out of having a woman getting naked on his bed?! lol.

Well, wasn't Sean's first episode thrilling?
He walks. And walks. And walks. And...stares, somewhat bewildered. And he walks. And walks. And stares. And sets a car alarm off. And stares. Breaks into Al's flat. And walks around. Walks around. Walks around. Looks at, in order, a hammer, a medal and a toothbrush. And then he goes out of the flat. And walks. And walks. And goes into the pub. And stands at the bar. And stands at the bar. Then he walks past Stacey. And then he finally, finally, speaks.
Gee, I'm impressed. I know they've got to add a bit of mystery, but after the first scene of him walking around I was bored stiff with him. Hope he's better on Thursday when we actually get some proper scenes with him.

Well if it wasn't this way then it would have just been Stacey walking out the pub and then bumping in to him then the duff duffers.
Ruby needs a slap, not happy with her at all :angry:
The Jane's were great, it was all good. :)

A brilliant episode tonight! Everything was brilliant about it! Ruby is just annoying me but that's all...i enjoyed everything else about it.
Sean has really made his presence felt and him bumping into Stacey at the end was just a great cliffhanger for tomorrow.
Stacey was brilliant tonight, her reaction to her pregnancy and seeing her brother was brilliant acting.
The Ian/Janes stuff was absolutely hilarious! :lol: I am loving every minute of this! Great comedy!
Overall 10/10. :)

Loved tonights episode! Yes Sean Slater has finally arrived on the Square! Lacey was fantastic tonight as always! She definatly deserves Inside Soap Awards for Best Actress! Loved all the stuff with Jane/Ian/Dawn! Loved it when Jane was making everything up about Ian, pure comedy! lol OMG Ruby is getting on my nerves will someone just slap her please!

22-08-2006, 22:07
I loved Tonights episode. This Ian/Jane/Dawn thing just gets better and better. Really enjoyed it these last two episodes. Yay! Sean Slater arrives. I hope he's good. Aww poor Stacey, if only Ruby knew. I think Maeve is great, she's just getting all the information.:)
Roll on Thursday!!

usually I dont like this Ian/Jane and Dawn stuff but Jane was hilarious last night, the way she was talking and behaving made me laugh. Good to see Sean look forward to seeing more of him on thursday. Still cant stand Ruby. But very good episode last night.
Ruby totally annoys me even more now.. what happen to the "I don't want your murder money" she yelled at her Dad.. now it is all FLASH FLASH FLASH, I am so much better than everyone else!!!
Totally agree with Black kat.. Sean didn't do very much at all.. I much prefer the Al Character...
Love the Jane thing.. the way she was at the dinner table was really funny.. I was half expecting her to pick her teeth and call everyone Darling :rotfl::rotfl:

Stacey has a talente for making her life so comlpicated, maybe she could call Kat! But she looks so real. Sean looks intriguing he has different facial expressions, looking forward to his storyline. Jane is so good, she really makes me laugh!

Mercy me.........what an episode !!!!!!
Gawd I love Jane,,, always have,,, Ian looked more of a MUPPET as the episode went on,, Now what is Jane gonna do when she finds Victors wife arranged on Ian's bed ?????????
Right now I would loveeeeeeeeeeeee for Jane to just tell old Ian where to stuff himself,, Ian doesn't want jane to leave cos hes got a live in nanny, house keeper, bottle washer, caf worker, chippie worker, and bed mate,,, :rolleyes:
Can some one SHOOT RUBY and put her out of her misery, she is not a good actress,,shes rubbish as last months rubbish,,she stinks high heaven.:wall:
Stacey needs to unload her secret fast or its gonna eat her up,, Another Statler. hmmmm not sure how I like Sean yet, but its early days,, give him time.....love his face tho.:)
Bring on Thursdays episode,, looking forward to it. By then Jane should be home packing .........I would have been :rotfl:

Jane was brillant last night really funny. Poor Stacey, Ruby is a cow i can't wait for her exit. Sean Slater really didn't look that hot i can't see him stealing Nigel Harman (Dennis) crown.

I enjoyed most of last night episode. Thought the stuff with Jane was hilarious. Sean is kinda fit, in a bizarre way, for me much better looking at Dennis. Looking forward to the rest of the week. (and haven't been able to say that in a while)
I think Seans nicer than Dennis but i was never a Dennis fan. Loved Dawns face when she saw Jane, and said at one point, Would you like a slap........on the back.

total classic. loved the stuff with dawn/jane/ian, when this whole WCCT thing started I was like just get off the screen, and the last two nights were the only ones i could stand to watch...and end to like. cant wait for thurday...
sean...hmmm...got to give him time really, but i think he'll end up growning on me.
and stacey...i dont think ive ever felt as sorry for her.

Does anyone know who uses to live in the Flat Al was in.. it looks very very familiar
It reminded me of Sam and Minty's place...

Am I the only one who thinks if the whole twisted story of the Beale family was true ("Jane's" father being a vicar, Jane and Ian treating her like a slave, Jane being a raging psychopath, them all sleeping around whenever, the kids being out thieving all the time)...then EE would be a much better show? Or at the least a much more interesting one. :rotfl: :lol: Not that the storyline hasn't been good this week, but I'd love to see even a one-off episode based on that scenario, lol.
I'm not overly impressed with Sean from the acting point of view. I don't think he's terrible, so once he's settled into the character he could be okay, but if it wasn't for Lacey Turner the scenes would have fallen flat. He's okay character wise, but I don't think he's worth the hype.

I personally really enjoyed that episode I really like Sean :wub: I felt so sorry for Stacey in the first scene in the kitchen truly heartbreaking I thought.:(
Brilliant acting from both involved:)

I think it's Sean thats got me interested again , im not gay so not in that sense , but his character is very mysterious and I cant wait to see how this so called storyline plays out. Stacey was great in this episode as was Jane , hilarious. Seriously she can do so much better than Ian.

i thought it was brilliant tonight! I absolutly loved all the Jane stuff she has really made me lagh over the past few episodes! watching her race about in that golf buggy cracked me up! Loved the scenes with Sean :wub: and Stacey! Lacey Turner is such a brilliant actress and she really shone in all those scenes for me! Loved it when Sean and Stacey were making fun of each other, thats just what brother and sisters do (well me and my brother do it!lol) Overall i thought it was a great episode! Although Ruby still needs a slap! Thinking every guy with a pulse would fancy her, shes nothing special!

Really enjoyed that episode, loved Stacey and Sean trading insults with each other, finally a mention of her nails :) so sad when she found out that it was all a coincidence. Clearly Sean doesn't like Charlie as much as he let on with his sly smile and shaking of the head.
I only realised this afternoon this week has only been one day. What a day for Stacey not to have had any sleep. :)

I loved today's episode.
Some powerful scenes with Stacey and Sean tonight, Lacey is a brilliant actress, i really felt for stacey tonight.
LOL at Jane. This is the side we should see more often, i love this "Feisty" Jane. I also liked when she was in that veichle and knocked the plant pot down.:rotfl:
Sooooo Dawn's real identity has been revealed to Rob........
Nice ending.
.:SpIcYsPy:.
24-08-2006, 21:10
I'd have prefered Dawn telling Rob the trurth instead of it all slowly being let out..
Sean :wub: Well he's good.. Hasn't got much of a character yet but hopefully the stuff will Al will be good!!
Jane... wooh :eek: She's scary :lol: + who would have thought Maueve (sp?) was like that on every holiday :lol:
Brilliant episode :p

Classic episode, loved it, Jane so funny, laughed and laughed watching her.
I'm finding Sean bizarely attractive, in a rugged kinda way (i think it much be an age thing for me again!)
Lacey awsome acting yet again. Excellent last two episode's well done EE.
Loved last night episode. Jane was funny going around the golf course on the track :rotfl::rotfl: "hell hast no fury like a woman scorned".. Classic when she told Rob about Dawn consider how Dawn had dug herself into a much bigger hole
Stacey, excellent as usual.. my heart went out to her. Sean is ok but he is not the next Dennis and I have a feeling he will be label such!!
How far up her own bum in Ruby, telling Jake that she know he fancies her.. she thinks now she has the money that everyone wants her.. she better prepare herself for a big fall been that high up in the clouds
Looking forward to tonights episode.. eastender is slowly coming back to where it was before
Sean will always be Casper Rose in my eyes. Loved the Jane scenes shes been the best character in it recently very funny and showed that she can do more than be ians girlfriend who works in the cafe.

Lacey Turner truly is a great actress, I even had tears in my eyes, she is brilliant, hope she will stay for a long time. But she is bound to be snatched away. Sean is getting interesting! Hmm still to young though.
Jane is so hilarious, nice that she can do different things as well, comedy, femme fatale and caring, brilliant as well.
Looking forward to tonight's epi.:cheer:

Me too, although it is going to be centred mostly around Sean and Al. I hope we get some Stacey scenes tonight. I too hope Lacey Stays in EE for a long while....EE are lucky to have her. I love this side to Jane much better than the 'Plain Jane' side. She is hilarious!!
well....loved jane, never knew she could be so funny! did anyone else notice that wehn sean and stacey were sitting at the table in the kitchen, stacey really looked like kat, i could just look at her face and see kat

You know it said in the magazine about Stacey and Sean's first meeting. Lacey was saying that they had a moment in the pub where Stacey didn't think it was her brother, and started asking questions to see whether he was telling the truth or not. I wonder why that wasn't in it?!
Perhaps they felt the stuff they did in the house made up for it?!

They should have left that in cause I was wondering how Stacey would have recognise him after 7 years (and how he remembered her cause from 11 to 18 has some many changes for anyone)

I thought last nights episode was great,, I am dying to see how Ian tries to "win"Jane back after that stunt he pulled,,, Dawns secret is out now .....Guess we will not see much of those 3 tonight.
I am curious to see just what it is that Sean wants from Al...:searchme:
Looking forward seeing what happens next week too :)
littlemo
25-08-2006, 20:38
So what did you think then?!
I'm still not thinking of Sean as a bad bloke. It seemed like what he did to Al was justified (in soapland anyway lol.), and he was there comforting Stacey. I'm sure there's worse to come. But Sean didn't kill him! He got off easy.
Some good scenes between Jane and Ian, although I can't stand to hear Ian cry and whine. He always does it, and it sounds like he's such a cry baby. It's like get some self respect!
x-xjessicax-x
25-08-2006, 20:45
i like sean i think hes cool but hes got his little dark side.But i would have killed al. And the little brother and sister love between stacey and sean was sweet.
and does jane ever tell ian about her affair with grant

25-08-2006, 20:49
I loved Dawn's line. "If you're expecting me to apologise you'll be waiting a long time." Reminds me of when she got the boob job and wasn't ashamed at all. I love that she isn't ashamed to be who she is, even if, coming at it objectively, she probably should be, :lol: :wub:

25-08-2006, 22:01
I'm getting to quite like Rob. There's something about him.
If previous rumours are anything to go by perhaps they'll be more to him than meets the eye. But at the moment, I want to see him again.
So is Ian still part of the Wcct thing? Rob found out but I don't think the boss did. But if Rob knows I suppose things will come out in the open. I don't know.
I like Rob, thought the sean and Al seen was well done as i really thought he would hurt him but he didnt surprisingly. Glad stacey confided in someone. I thought the Jane scenes were well filmed, When we were waiting to see if shed stay or go.

I think they've said that on EE before now. So I think it's o.k.
I love Sean and Stacey's relationship. I know we've only seen a few scenes, but it's so sweet.
My Brother the hero. I thought that was really sweet. I think the casting department has done a good job, Rob and Lacey have a good onscreen relationship.

Another great episode yesterday, Eastenders has been on top form this week! Nice to see some drama between Jane and Ian after the comedy, Laurie Brett is a very good actress, she can do comedy and drama perfectly, her scenes with Ian last night were good to watch.
The Sean/Al scenes were good too and i liked the end when Stacey told Sean she was pregnant, a nice scene between them...you can definetly tell that Sean will look after Stacey whilst staying in the Square.
Also i am glad Rob and Dawn have got together, i hope we see more of Rob soon..i like his character.
Overall 10/10. :)

Good episode- not the most enjoyable, but the strongest of the week, I'd say.
I liked the Sean/Al stuff- it was nice to get to know about their past, although some times it got boring.
Lacey Turner is just brilliant. Stacey is my fave character in EE and Actress. I loved Stacey's line at the end, same with Sean as well. They have very good on-screen chemistry.:clap:
I like Dawn. The stuff with Rob was good. I want to know more about Rob's character? Does he actually live in the sqaure?
I can only hope Next week is up to the standards of this week, which was amazing.
Have to admit I enjoyed Eastendes this week:)
WCCT stuff very good and commical. Nice to see Ian having a decent storyline for a change instead of the usual crap he gets.
I like Al and was surprised at what a nice guy he was, Sean is obviously going to be Walfords new bad boy, will have to see how this all pans out.
I really like Rob he is a good character, hope they don't ruin him. Dawn and Rob look right together and I hope things are going to be handled right here and not ruined.
All in all we had a good mix this week of comedy, emotion and bit of drama, however there were one or two areas which I felt weren't up to scratch.
I hope that this is a good sign and that the characters we had this week don't become victims of ruin or of the stupid scripts that we have had recently.

Nice episode. Not as good as I was expecting, but still good.
Sean doesn't exactly have to twist Tanya's arm to flirt with him does she?! lol.
Sean's attitude was done subtely tonight. Like he invited himself to Bradley's birthday, and he didn't intimidate Bradley too much. Quite surprisng Sean didn't go after Stacey himself, but I suppose he wants to give Bradley a chance, to see what he does.
What Bradley was saying about moving away though, they could still do that with a baby. Go abroad! It'd be much better for it than staying in Walford.

What was going on with Ruby?
She said something about being an aunt to stacey's kid??
*-Rooney-*
28-08-2006, 20:51
i did like ruby's attitude to the news she seemed to say the right things to say. the reason she considered herself as an aunt is because she is staceys best friend. ruby was showing stacy that her life didnt have to stop if she was to have the baby
I think Bradley is all of a flutter first finding out that Stacey didn't mention her brother even when she said that she wouldn't keep things to herself and then the interrogation by Sean and then Stacey's moodiness at the dinner.
In my opinion it still doesn't excuse his future actions. Something tells me that by the time this week is out we will find out what Bradley's birthday wish was.

The only scenes that stood out for me were the Honey/Dot scenes and Stacey/Sean and the Brannings!

I disagree she seemed to assume that Stacey would keep it without even asking, even when she heard Stacey's cool response it never dawned on her that she might not keep it.
Bradleys face. Hilarious. I can see the following scenes to be sad. Everything said round at Bradleys dinner how he wanted to travel the world. I think it was really well set up for tomorrows epiosde. Thought the Honey and Dot scenes were really sweet.

Shame Jim, and Dot (the legend) wasnt at Bradders' birthday tea!
Yeah, its going to be a very depressing week on Enders, I fear! Along with some character transplanting,and alot of crying and soul searching (and thats just from the viewers) . :crying:
Think I might give it all a miss for the rest of the week, save it up for the sunday offering, and get the whole sorry business over in one go! Hopefully it will be less painful that way. :(
Loved Honey and Billy though tonight! :)

Bit boring, I must say.:thumbsdow
The only scenes that stood out for me were the Honey/Dot scenes and Stacey/Sean and the Brannings!
Wasn't that most of the episode?! :p :D
I enjoyed last night's episode..the Honey/Dot scenes were lovely.
Typical of Ian not to cut his ties with the WCCT. :rolleyes:
You can tell that Tanya is falling for Sean's flirting and the ending was such a cliffhanger with Stacey revealing to Bradley she was pregnant.
Roll on tonight! :cheer:
Well during that talk between Bradley and his dad, i started to think how does he decided he wants an abortion, then Bradley started arguing, then i thought ahhh i see. Then i felt really sorry for Stacey when all she wanted was a hug but at least she got one, and her look on her face at the end, she just looked, well scared.
Shortest 30mins ever! :) :crying:
Bradley didn't come out of that as bad as I feared, but still not great. Max was great in that episode
Lizzie Brookes
29-08-2006, 20:06
I think Max is great, he reminds me a little of Den, thev old Den that is who useed to be the caring family guy before his unhealthy obsession with his adopted dughter Sharon made him twisted. Hmmm all these girlswho have rows with their boyfriends tendto confide in their boyfriend's dads, Zoe confided in Den, Stacey confided in Max.
Bradley didn't come out of that as bad as I feared, but still not great. yer i thought so too, but still i wish he could give it more time to think, instead of rushing.
He was a bit certain that he didnt want to keep the Baby. When he said tomorrow i couldnt believe it. I thought they d make great parents as well. I though it was a great episode tonight. Sean didnt waste much time did he. I liking Tanya as well at first ididnt like her but shes growing on me. Roll on Thursday.
Lizzie Brookes
29-08-2006, 20:13
I agree with Bradley. He is 19 and has a good job and Stacey's only 17, true they should have been more careful to avoid this but its too soon, they're too young. They're not ready to be mum and dad yet, its hard to cope with.
*-Rooney-*
29-08-2006, 20:14
yer i thought so too, but still i wish he could give it more time to think, instead of rushing.
yeah i know what you mean he only found out that night that she was pregnant then he thinks about it for basically the same lenght of time as max spoke to stacey and then to bradley and he has decided he wants to abort it tommorow even though in her own way stacey told him she wants the baby, so basically work is more important to him than this baby that he helped make
this will be the end of the famous stacy/bradley couple
He was a bit certain that he didnt want to keep the Baby. When he said tomorrow i couldnt believe it. I know i mean, ok they made a decison, but i mean i was soo shocked that he wanted to rush things really fast.After all its someones life they talking about.
Lizzie Brookes
29-08-2006, 20:15
I liked the scenes between Tanya/Max, Max/Stacey and Max/Bradley. I think its really good that Max and Tanya are being open with each other. I couldn't believe Sean - of course she rejevcted him, what did he expect? At least Mickey was decent.
The decision should have been made careful together, i think he was very rash and ashumed Stacey wanted the same as him which by the look on her face she didnt. Not deep down. I know they are young but in real life there are young familiys.
Lizzie Brookes
29-08-2006, 20:20
Perhaps they could have talked it through a bit more but Bradley's only thinking from the practical viewpoint which is understandable.
Perhaps they could have talked it through a bit more but Bradley's only thinking from the practical viewpoint which is understandable. Yes it is, but i also think that hes still panicing and not giving himself enough time to think.
The whole episode was really well filmed though and the acting was great. Loved Sean and Stacey to. He really would Kill for his little sister wouldnt he. He was quite scary when he was going to go after Bradley.
littlemo
29-08-2006, 20:38
What I found weird was that Bradley asked Stacey what she wanted to do, she told him, and then he decided they should do the complete opposite of what she said.
Bradley had a really evil face at the start of that episode. All the stuff he was saying about Stacey and Sean ganging up on him. He turned into a lunatic!
At no time Stacey told him she had tried to tell him.
I thought that myself acctually. She did try to tell him but he was puuting his hand up her top. I think he forgot that little bit of information. He was wrong to go off on one like he did. There was no need to have a pddy.
Bradley was a totally selfish prat tonight. Okay, so he feels he is too young, well he should have been more careful in the first place. What did he mean, you're on the pill aren't you. He should know. It is his responsibility too. This decision is way too fast and he isn't taking Stacey's views into consideration at all. All he is thinking about is his job and his future and he isn't giving Stacey a second thought. It's so obvious that Stacey wants this child and sees them as a happy little family.
If he forces the girl into doing something she doesn't really want, it will backfire. Once she realises exactly what has happened she will never forgive him. Whatever happens, this relationship will never be the same again.

Max was so caring about Stacey it felt really genuine. Lacey fab as ever, she is the one who can pull it off.
Why did Stacey turn around so quickly when Bradders said to get rid of the baby, she gives in to hastily. No one else can do that to her.
I'm not for teenage pregnancies, but Bradley is a bit selfish, he doesn't want the baby because of his mum and dad, that is not unselfish at all. Glad I never faced that decision when I was that age, must be terrible.
Good episode, cannot wait for the next one.:bow:

I saw a definite chemistry between Max and Stacey. I do think there could be something between them in the future. He's probably thinking he's just being a nice guy to his son's girlfriend, but I can see potential.
Bradley jumped in too fast, but Stacey could have said no. He gave her a chance to.
It is weird how Stacey is allowing herself to be told what to do. She is way too needy with Bradley. It's like she thinks that if she doesn't go along with what he wants all the time, he'll walk away from her. She's just too scared of losing him. That's not good.
I thought Stacey was a bit full of herself, saying that there was nobody else better for Bradley than her! lol. 'this is as good as it gets'. How does she know that?!

A fantastic episode last night, great acting all round. Lacey's performance as Stacey was really well done.
I can't believe how Bradley reacted, you can tell he is the dominant one in this whole situation and Stacey is just going to go along with what he's saying, i think deep down she wants to keep the baby but Bradley too so she will just go along with what Bradley says and not make her own mind up.
Nice to see Max's caring side last night too with him going round to talk to Stacey...they are developing a good bond with each other, and also when he went round to speak to Bradley.
A great episode!

I actually thought Bradley made a lot of sense. What he said about his dad and the fact that he was thinking of his child, and he was too young for the responsibility. It's a shame it had to end that way, but with Bradley being so set against it. The relationship would be even more doomed than it could be now.
Some nice moments between them. I liked how she brought up the fact that Bradley never said he loved her. He still didn't say it though did he?! What is wrong with him?!
*-Rooney-*
31-08-2006, 20:18
i think she is so needy towards bradley and scared of losing him is due to her family life before she came to the square she really lacked love from any one, her dad died, her bro left when she was 11 and her mum had mental problems ( not judging) so she only had herself then she came to the square and eventually she felt loved and wanted again but that was from family the exception being ruby so she doesnt want to lose him .
i cant believe how calm he was this ep while you would need to be stupid to see she wanted this baby, i liked the ending when he went to hold her hand and she pulled it back
You weren't watching littlemo! He said it, finally. I think it was pretty much what made her back down and have the abortion.
Great episode though, when Bradley came in and saw her in her robes and was sick, I felt gutted for everyone :crying:
Brilliant acting with excellent writing. I feel emotionally exhausted :crying:

He said 'I love you'! I'll have to watch that part again. I must not have heard him properly.
He said that he wanted loads of kids with her, I liked that part. That was nicely done. And he reassured her about her being the one he wants. Ah!
Really emotional stuff!
There seems to be no chance she didn't go through with it. They were pretty graphic in detail. And obviously she was very upset. Really sad!
But they can always have more children can't they?! When they are ready.
i cant believe how calm he was this ep while you would need to be stupid to see she wanted this baby, i liked the ending when he went to hold her hand and she pulled it back
Calm?! When does being sick at the thought of something be considered calm! :)
In the end he was at the same dilemma as Stacey but that fear of being a crap father and ending up like his Dad and the thought of his son feeling like he did was enough to make him stick to it. I don't think he was as bad as I had feared from reading the spoilers a few weeks ago. He had valid reasons why he didn't want a child now and he explained them well and wasn't emotionally detached to Stacey. He said that in the future he would love a family with her and that he loved her, but now wasn't the time. He did say the final decision was hers to make, but obviously Stacey's love for Bradley was enough to make her go through with it.

Yes. I'm really emotional thinking about how much Stacey loves him. It's really sweet!
She's 17, but I don't think anybody can say that she doesn't know what love is, after that. She gave up her baby for him. She said to Max if she was given the choice there'd be no contest. It's incredible!

It was an emotional episode and I dotn know what would be the right decision for them to make. They are both life changing decisions to make. Now they will have to live with the guilt which will haunt them both forever. Some abortions can cause infertility. The pain and heartache will now prize them apartp although I hope in time they will be together again......
Although I thiNk Max and StACEY WILL BECOME CLOSER....

A very emotional episode tonight..it was such a good episode, brilliant acting from Lacey and Charlie once again...Bradley did make a bit of sense when he said he didn't want to turn out like his dad and that he's not old enough to have the responsibility of becoming a father, i could see where he was coming from.
I just thought that Stacey and Bradley should have spent more time thinking it through, they didn't think long enough to know what they really wanted. I think Stacey may regret having the abortion. I believe she truly wanted to have the baby, a shame the way it turned out but a good episode.
I think there's something between Max and Stacey too. A kind of passion.
I think it would be more on Max's side as Stacey is madly in love with Bradley
I didn't think Bradley forced her to have the abortion, he explain how he felt and said it was up to her. Stacey is so in love with him that she gave up her baby to be with him. I can see this causing a rift and maybe what Bradley said to her ages ago will come true. Last night he told her that he loved her and he did say that once it was said things always go wrong
It was a brilliant episode last night, i have to admit I cried at the end. excellent acting from both Lacey and Charlie. Well done EE, keep up this good stuff

Great last night, again im still feeling sorry for Stacey, i think she was scared and even though she didnt really wnated to get rid of the baby, i think she had a feeling if she kept it Bradely wouldnt be there for her because of when he said he wanted her and only her.

Two questions from last week's Easties...
1. Why would Victor ask Ian to be the Treasurer? He is new to the organisation and after the events of the awayday, I would think he would be the last person Victor would want. In any case, there must be a lot more senior members of the organisation who would be considered first.
2. Why did Bradley go to a cash machine and draw out loads of cash to pay for the abortion? Surely, as a banker himself, he would use a card or cheque.
Just two thoughts....

Found the episode very slow. Honey and Billy are good characters, but having that interspliced with SJ and Minty was stupid. I like Garry but I just found it all a bit too cheesy.
Also they could have done with more people at the wedding. I know it was quite short notice, but everybody in the square knew about it. Where were the Foxes, the new Brannings (Max and Tanya) etc.? I thought they would have jumped at the chance to get involved with the community.
Anyway that aside, I do like these character led storylines. Bradley and Stacey last week was fantastic, and it looks like we are going to see Billy and Honey at their best this week! It's all good stuff!
It's heading in the right direction! lol.
Thought it was a very good episode last night. I am so glad the writers let them get married before the baby comes. I dont think i could have happened another nearly wed episode. Thought Mo was funny, "doesnt seen 5 minutes since he was marrying Little Mo".

...Garry should never be the voice of reason. Ever. SJ needs a smack, and I really wouldn't care if Garry was the one to give it to her.
(Even if she wasn't taking Minty for everything she can, she'd still need a smack just for being so annoying.)
The comedy wedding and birth really didn't work for me. I'm not sure if it's supposed to provide a contrast to the rest of the week or what, but it was just cringeworthy.

I agree with you BlackKat. I thought the "comedy" element was very clumsy and just didn't work at all. There was no subtlety about it. Clunk. Clunk. Clunk. I found it very tiresome.
Honey was brilliant last night. Emma Barton must have spent time talking to women who have children cause I could totally relate to her going mental and yelling at the midwife.. I love her saying she wasn't coming out until she got her drugs... and the gas and air, brilliant, trust me, men do try it sometimes.. and it does make you that out of it.
Excellent episode, funny, sweet and charming. but still SJ does my head in and fair play to gary for say what we all think!!!

Rubbish episode - EE can't do comedy, Honey was completely OTT, who locks themselves in a loo while delivering a baby - nice scene at the end though - the midwife was brilliant, they could do with her being a regular, maybe move to the square. Please Please ditch that stupid SJ character, the girl can't act and that thing on her head supposed to be a hat.

I agree. I watched EE on Tuesday for the first time in yonks and thought it was terrible. Honey's birth scenes were dreadful. I thought it was John Hurt with a women's mask on. In some ways, I wish Honey's stomach had exploded into the air and the bust in the Vic popped out. Awful character. I'm afraid cannot see Emma doing this Down's storyline justice, nor EE for that matter.

Yep the Labour women like to stab their leader(s) in the back. :p
I agree. I watched EE on Tuesday for the first time in yonks and thought it was terrible. Honey's birth scenes were dreadful. I thought it was John Hurt with a women's mask on. In some ways, I wish Honey's stomach had exploded into the air and the bust in the Vic popped out. Awful character. I'm afraid cannot see Emma doing this Down's storyline justice, nor EE for that matter.
I enjoyed it I thought the comedy elements really worked and Im glad they didnt decide to opt for serious all week. I think Emma will do it very well to be honest, I think she'll prove to be very good like Bradley Walsh was in Corrie when he did drama.

I thought tonights episode was heartbreaking! Emma and Perry will definatly do this storyline justice! Love Peggy and Jack, they're great!
Is anyone finding the Garry/SJ/Minty storyline a bit familiar (Hollyoaks: OB/Clare/Max maybe?)
Im bored of SJ she just annoys the hell out of me! I don't know whay Minty is so gullible either!

I'm liking the Mitchells at the moment. I'm glad Phil is helping Billy out, he does show a caring side at times. Jack is nice, and him and Peggy together do make sense.
Feeling sorry for Billy and Honey, they should have done the test.
I don't know how that nurse could keep her composure. The doctor should have told Honey sooner than that. You can't keep somebody hanging on in that way.
I also thought that woman in the bed next to Honey could have been a bit more diplomatic. She should have told her to speak to somebody, but you don't have to worry the poor woman, half to death!
All in all I think the process of determining whether the baby had downsyndrome took too long. The nurse knew from the start. The doctor should have been there, there and then to do an on the spot examination, and then told Honey straight away.

Little Mo I was under the impression the nurse only suspected thats why the doctor didnt get involved quickly, thats what I thought though I see what you mean I thought they would have been a lot quicker telling them.
I cant stand SJ and I have a problem with the character of Minty didnt he use to be a bullying landlord who tormented Laura for rent now he's an easily led and pushed over prat.

She suspected the moment the baby was born though. She came out with a startled look on her face on Tuesday, and then she came to see the baby again, before she informed the doctor. Maybe that is the policy, I just find it a bit strange.
I agree about Minty's change of character. But they are keeping whatever SJ is up to quite guarded. I am quite surprised at Garry's attitude, I wouldn't think he'd be so intuitive. Garry strikes me as the kind of guy who'd say, she's a stripper. I don't care about anything else. Give it up for Minty! That kind of stuff.

Fed up with the Minty/SJ storyline - how much longer do we have to wait for Minty to realise that SJ is a bludger and has been taking him for a ride? Phil must be paying Minty an awful lot in wages if Minty can afford to rent SJ's flat for her *and* pay his share of the rent in the flat he shares with Gary and Naomi.

If it is some sort of scheme, why would she allow Syd to hang around?! Surely he's jeopardising her plan, by being there. There's no need to rub Minty's face in it!

Beats me! It must have been Peggy who invited her, because Honey and Billy didn't want any visitors. It was a bit of a cheek to just assume it's o.k to bring them.
Sat here still in tears after tonights heartbreakign episode. Do Honey and Billy keep baby Janet?
I really hope they do. Children with Downes can lead happy, relatively normal lives, although their life expectancy is shorter. I'd like to see EE portray it this way.
Someone mentioned that Honey should have had the test done. I refused the test both times that I was pregnant - it isn't particularly reliable and alot of hospitals don't offer it anymore. A friend of mine had it and was told that there was a higher than average chance that her baby would be Downes. She agonised about having a termination and decided not to have one. Luckily her baby was perfectly healthy.

I was in tears as well, must be because of me being pregnant it makes you empathise even more. I had the test done as well I'm 35 so it is an risk, we wouldn't have terminated if the test proved a higher risk , but it can help you to adjust, now Honey will not even touch Janet which is very damaging for young babies, they can get emotional stress because of the rejection. I do feel that Honey's reaction isgenuine and played well by Emma Barton, Perry Fenwick gives a rather good performance as well. Well done to the both of them.:clap:

It really was an excellent episode last night, they handled it with love and understanding. Honey and BIllie reacted how any parents would when they find out after the birth, I'm surprised they weren't offered the choice to have an amnio.
I loved it when Pat told Billie she knew, it's good to have someone who isn't judgemental be there to listen to you.
I bawled like a baby on Friday.. such a sweet moving scene with Billy and Pat and then poor billy at the end wanting to keep Janet but Honey saying she is not sure.. excellent from both Emma and Perry... they are doing a good job on this particular issue...:clap::clap::clap:

We have had two weeks of great scripts and then we have to witness such rubbish tonight.
What was the whole point of the tube rubbish. Billy Mitchell tough man ! My god my gran could deck him. I've been on tubes and I have not had this stupidness from drunks etc/.... This episode is pour rubbish no man would act like that and how dare he make a joke of people paying direct debit to charity.
I pay direct debit to charity I bet he bloody does not (I am sorry for using bloody) but its a joke this episode is a total joke and makes a joke of people. Everyone would love to do there bit for charity but cant but by paying it helps the cause
Its 8.16 pm and there is more to come. How awful !!
Oh and what is Sean doing trying to be Dennis (Dont kill of people and then replace that actors part with a new face ! Pointless !! Eastenders this episode is rubbish
Someone please tell me anything good about it!
A very Cross Mr Hump !:angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:
Oh hang on
9/11 well i remember it every year because it is my birthday today ! They surely could have made a better episode to mark 9/11 or just not at all, it was horrid that it happened, but what the hell we have to move on, no one made such a fuss when us London people where being blown up by the IRA or other countries problems.
Yeah you do carry on Billy, but he is not the only person with a downs kids. They are not handling this subject very well. It is a total disgrace

littlemo
11-09-2006, 21:01
Read Mr Humphries comments, and I agree with some of it. I thought I should say it on this thread.
I was a bit like, what is this?! You can understand them wanting to mark the anniversary, but it's 5 years after, and I don't remember them saying anything when it actually happened. I think Perry Fenwick is a great actor, but he didn't have much to work with. It was a bit of a yawnfest!
Also that stuff with Stacey, Ruby and Sean just slotted in. It was a bit like, what's the point?! A casual mention of Staceys 'miscarriage', and then she was laughing and joking. It just didn't fit.
That being said, I did like seeing that side to Stacey again. And I thought the bit at the end when Honey looked psychopathic was good.
3/10

11-09-2006, 21:06
I have read many of your posts and Sam and have always agreed with you even if I have never said it.
Tonights episode was a joke, EE scriptwriters have no contact with the really world if that episode was to go by. downs is not the end of the world, my sister is seriously disable and it happened at birth well delivery and was the hospital fault, but my rents took it in there stride and give my sister the best, and downs kids derserve the same
and how dare they make a joke of the charity and direct debit joke
it is awful

I really liked tonight's episode, it really made a change with seeing most of tonight's episode with the scene with Billy on the train talking to that man...nice for Eastenders to mention 5 years on from 9/11, quite a lot of realism there.
A good scene at the end too with Honey looking psychotic, Emma and Perry are doing a brilliant job acting out the issue of having a Down's baby.

What a weird episode last night! It's nice that they mentioned 9/11 but the tube scenes went on for too long if you ask me!
I actually enjoyed it.. How many times have you been on a tube when it broke down and what to shut up some asshole who is getting annoyed and harrassing people.. Mind you I did think he was well within his rights to have a go at the woman who was with the child and then turned up on the tube without it... EE got that right, happens all the time
Loved the bit with Honey at the end, she really has just gone into herself and i see that they are not calling the baby Janet.. Poor woman just did not want to be even close to the baby, chanting "there is no place like home..." she is just after having a baby, a huge shock and yet I haven't seen any counceller talking to her directly.. Yes they have talked about the Baby leading a healthy life but she needs someone to talk to, just to let it all out

I have spent my entire working life travelling on the underground (37 years) with many breakdowns and I have to say that tube scene was totally unrealistic. In answer to your question, Siobhan, never.
Where is the baby? How did Honey get out of the hospital without her?
I agree completely with Mr Humphries about the episode. It was just appalling. Oh yes, and any actor who can make Nigel Harman actually look good must be ready for the chop as soon as possible.

Look at it from the date that is was; 5 years since 9/11, just over 1 year since the london attacks.. would you not try to calm an irrate passenger if you thought you live and the lives of others were going end???
The Tube incident totally ruined my recently revived interest in EE. It was total overkill. Big deal that they mentioned 9/11. The only saving grace was the last scene with Honey.

Why would you think your life was going to end because there was an irate passenger? I don't think a suicide bomber would draw attention to himself by acting like Billy!

No possible not but an irrate passenger can install panic in others.. I liked it.. I felt this is what Billy needed to talk to a complete stranger about his emotions so he can move on and accept the baby. Honey hasn't done this and is shutting herself off totally
I haven't watched EE for ages (gave up, watched for 20 years and now totally bored by it :( ) but I can fully understand what Siobhan is saying here. If its the 5th anniversary of something as big as 9/11 was, you are in some respects waiting for the next attack as the terrorists way of marking the event to happen (like what has happened today at the US Embassy in Damascus), so it can make some people edgy and as much as you don't want to live like that, some people (not all) will have that element of worry, panic and doubt in their minds, about the people around them.

When did an EE script writer last travel by tube - there are never beggers on the tubes nowadays, I regularly use the tube and can't remember the last time I got asked for money by women with kids - London Underground put a stop to it years ago, if they are using a story line like this get the facts straight.

trust me it does happen I had one when I was on the tube, demanding money for a cup of tea, so it does still happen.
Last nights episode was a different approach and one that worked better towards the end of the show. well done EE for mentioning 9/11 but some of the parts really did drag.

I really liked that episode. I'd say 8/10.
So great having the Slaters back! Love seeing them together being a family.
Sean definetely grew on me tonight, I can see potential. Love him and Stacey's relationship, there's a great bond. It's lovely how much he cares for her. Sean can be hard work, but Stacey certainly gives as good as she gets. I don't think she'll be a push over! :)
Big Mo singing 'cheeky girls' at the beginning! lol. And all the Slaters hanging out together, having a laugh. It's classic!
Nice to see Owen's mum in it. Typical reaction to finding out your son is a wife beater, denial. Interesting character.
Phil do not repeat the 'Louise hunt' again! It's getting stupid! lol.
The Slaters did it for me, fabulous!
Well I went with the hype and watched last weeks Deadenders. Brilliant I thought DE is back to what I used to love but last night just went to prove that one swallow does not make a summer.. DE is like the Parsons Egg (Promises lots but delivers little)

I thought tonights episode wasn't bad. Well saying that, I enjoyed the Honey/Billy stuff. And the Denise stuff wasn't too bad.
However, Sean and Ruby really annoyed me. I'm not too keen on Sean, he just seems arrogant, lazy and boring. Ruby with her constant chatting up-ness was irritating. Peggy and Jack, was boring...need I go on..
I enjoyed last night purely for the Honey and Billy stuff.. I thought it was bad of Jack to keep Billy out of the picture in the hospital.. this is his child too and Jack had no rights.. Ok, get Honey to admit it fine but keeping the dad out fo the picture is just not on....
Sean is annoying me, he is not creepy or scary, he is just a pain in the ass... Old saying, never bit the hand that feeds and that is what he is doing to Charlie.. was there any need for the fat jokes again????
Ruby is possiblily the worst flirt I have ever ever seen, talk about thrown yourself at someone, pathetic!!!

God that was a boring episode! lol.
I think Sean's o.k, but I think he'll work better with Stacey. I can't stand the way Ruby is behaving. I just didn't like the scenes between them at all. It seems we'll have a lot more to come though. Maybe it'll get better. Doubtful.
I think Jake is quite sensible, but he's not the owner. He shouldn't treat Ruby in that way. I don't know where he gets off!
I'm confused as to when Jake found out about Sean being Stacey's brother. Ruby didn't point it out, and yet when he was talking about helping his little sister out, it seemed like Jake knew all. Why would Ruby want to hide that fact from him?! lol.
Found the stuff with Owen and his mum boring to watch. He was just repeating everything he'd said to Denise.
The Honey and Billy stuff, you feel like Honey is just about able to accept her child, and then she comes out with a comment like that. Wasn't it the same ending Tuesday night?!
I hate to be so negative, but it's difficult.

Good episode tonight. The Owen stuff is getting a bit better. Some of it with Squiggle was quite emotional.
That scene with Phil and the baby at the hospital was quite good. I'm not being insulting, but when I was looking at them both together, I was thinking they could identify with each other quite a bit. They are both kind of like the 'black sheep' so to speak. I thought it was quite sweet. I can see Phil taking her under his wing, at some point. Giving some bully I right telling off! lol. Oh and Billy was great too!
Glad Phil apologised to Ben. This stuff Phil carries around with him, about having to be hard and tough, it's a load of rubbish. He's still carrying all the stuff around with him, that he got from his dad. He needs to grow up. And it's great he's not going after Louise. Thankyou!
And of course Bradley and Stacey! Ah. Not enough of them tonight, but what we got seemed to show Bradley and Stacey quite distant from each other. Bradley trying to get close and her knocking him back. He did seem quite emotional about it. I like the way it's developing!

I didn't like that episode, I love Bradley and Stacey, but at the moment Bradley is annoying me a bit. It's like he just expects her to just forget everything that's happened, he's just too smiley! lol. If that makes sense. Stacey's trying to talk to him, and he seems like he's in denial.
That mum of Owen's is being annoying. I can't believe she would say that Denise has been good to her, and then just expect her to testify, knowing what her son's done. I know she's his mother, but I just find it hard to take.
It seems like Robert's hiding something, I wasn't really listening, I was a bit bored, but it sounds that way.
Billy's so sweet with the baby. Lovely! I like that male nurse, he was so sweet and understanding. Maybe following the complaints about that midwife?!

I think he is definitely trying to avoid dealing with it. As I said when it originally happened he seemed to be in two minds about whether to keep it. Now the decision is made he is trying to claw back what they had in June/July and pretend it never happened, and Stacey is too afraid of losing him to stand up for herself. He would be better off letting them both talk about it and get it aired at least then they could make a start on moving on.
I think I said somewhere on this forum that they would probably split up by the end of the year, I want to revise that. I think they will split up by the end of the week! :(

The midwife was only two weeks ago. The episodes are filmed about 6 weeks before airing and I doubt they had the time or incentive to go back and rescript and film scenes just because people complained.
I watched for the first time in ages last night and what utter....erm....well anyway...I won't be watching again for a while, lets put it that way.
Sorry but as great as the Billy/Honey scenes were ( :hmm: ) you could so easily see that Petal/Janet was a dummy when Billy went to see her.
Then they fill in between this serious issue, with utter tosh. *sighs*

I don't think he is insensitive, I think he just doesn't know.. it didn't happen to him or his body and Stacey has never said anything.. Ruby even asked if she told bradley how much she wanted the baby and she said she didn't so how is he suppose to know how upset she is if Stacey hasn't told him????

Terrible episode with annoying Squiggle, Sean and Ruby. Stacey looks really tanned at the moment and Bradley is being really insenstive does he not remember what she went through. Eastenders is very boring at the moment.totaly agree with you,boring drivel,i don't think ee are even looking to how the storylines are going to continue,i watched an old one this morning on uk gold the one where the ferreras went to a wedding and it made me realise just how bad ee is at the moment the interaction and quality of the writing was far better then,no wonder ee is slipping in the ratings at the moment
observation - i am sick to the back teeth of Bradley saying he is "mad" or "crazy" about "Stace'" grrrrr he says it every episode, that character is really starting to annoy me!!!
normally I will sit through EE no matter how bad but last night I just couldn't... I am meant to be writing the guide but I can't. It was totally boring, rehashed drivel.. the only thing saving it at the moment is the Billy/Honey piece but even they are getting boring..Billy: "oh lets go see Petal" Honey : "maybe later, I just need to polish my cat" billy: "sorry I shouldn't be pushing you but hey lets go and hold her and make you more uncomfortable"

I'm sorry they couldn't keep up the last weeks of excellence. Maybe they are moving to other storylines and are these episodes in betweens.
Was ok eppi last night.. I am however annoyed so much with Peggy.. Pat told her discreetly about Petal, but then she went and told Dawn.. Later Peggy blamed Billy on all this saying he was the runt of the litter and that this is typical billy.. She is a total cow.. Ok Pat should not have said anything but Peggy had not right to tell everyone else in the pub... I hope she gets slapped :angry::angry:
What!! Peggy blamed Billy for Petal having Downs?!?! :angry: As awful as Billy was in the beginning (with the whole Jamie thing) he doesn't deserve that!

I totally agree, i hated what he did to Jamie but he changed and he deserves some credit for that, its not his fault his baby has downs and Peggy shouldnt blame him

yep her word last night were "typical Billy to have a handicapped child" and she said something about putting child in care
yep her word last night were "typical Billy to have a handicapped child" and she said something about putting child in care I'm surprised some organisations haven't jumped on that already! Thats a disgusting thing to say! I'm glad I didn't watch it now, or I'd have probably thrown my slipper or another object at the tv.
Edit: I've just read the Episode Guide for last night that you posted Siobhan, and how awful. I can't believe they cancelled the party like that. Good on Billy for saying that he isn't ashamed, but, problem is, Honey appears to be having difficulties accepting Petal's condition (from what I've read anyway) and by the party being cancelled etc, it almost fuels Honey's belief that she should be ashamed of her daughter - which is an awful thing. I hope Honey comes through this and accepts her daughter for the beautiful baby girl that she is.

Here's another scene that just proves it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boZtSlgEBsg She's always had a right vicious tongue on her if you ask me.. i've never been much of a fan of the character.

thing is though, in real life not everyone would be so supportive and understanding, that's just the way it is and they need to show that too otherwise it would be unrealistic. plus Peggy is of a generation where they didn't undertsand things like Downs nearly as much, and such kids were automatically put in homes etc, like Pat said. i dont agree with her, but i can see why the writers have put it in.

I'm well aware of that - but organisations have been very quick to jump on the midwives for telling Honey and not the consultant etc and other things far smaller than this, and there is always an organisation ready to jump on the bandwagon where all soaps are concerned - this was what I was meaning.

Yeah I know exactly what you mean and when Peggy said it I thought there will be complaints about that.
At first I was annoyed by her comments and thought why would EE write that but I think its quite a realistic account of someone shocked by the news, after all some people just struggle to cope with these situations she's angry and she's taking it out on Billy- not that shes has any right too.

Oh my god! I can't believe Peggy would say something like that! I knew she had a vicious tongue...but i never thought she would say anything like that :eek: It's good that EE put this in though as it is very realistic, and sadly, some people's reactions to that kind of news.
