Current Episode Discussion V

[Siobhan]

Quiet sad on friday with honey finally admitting she didn't want the baby and then the care worker talking to her... Fair play to Jack for having a go at Peggy and how creep was Owen???

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Last night was the first good episode for a long time, totally realistic with Owen being drunk and nasty like that

[Siobhan]

Last night was the first good episode for a long time, totally realistic with Owen being drunk and nasty like that

Totally agree. He is a fantastic actor and as much as Libby annoys me, she was really really good last night.. Can't wait for tonight to find out what happens

[Katy]

i completley agree with you, i thought Libby was really good last night and usually i cant stand her. IT was really realistic but dead vilolent. I think Owen is great, hes really good at playing drunk. Cant believe he did that to his own mum.

Great cliffhanger ending as well.

[Sam-Elle]

last night was good..., dont really like libby but i thought it was great, this stuff with owen has acctualy got me on the edge of my seat...(well sofa). as for the him hitting his mum shocked me...she was only trying to help! get some anger management classes...or punch a wall, its better than hitting your mum.
that scene with ruby crying and when sean kissed her hand was well sweet; even though i dont like sean.
is it just me or is the stuff between jack and peggy making you yawn?

[Katy]

not only Jack and Peggy, but Ruby and Sean, I like Sean but why Ruby chasing after another man for a relationship that isnt going to work. Why have that alongside a good storyline like Owens.

[Siobhan]

Yeah have to agree here.. they have poor quality secondary stories that take from the main story which is really really good.. Have some sky+ to do Em if you want to watch this

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

The stuff with Owen being drunk and violent was perfect, being someone whos seen drink cause violence i think it was really good, people like Owen in that state dont think about who they are hurting until the day after and Owen attacking his mum like that shows exactly that point

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

What aload of rubbish that was, how obvious was it that Owen wasnt turning up to that meeting in the park, i think Denise may have been the only one who didnt realise it.

Loved Dot/Lauren/Jane/Tanya bits tonight very entertaining, probably the only bit that was to be honest.

Owen's mum does my brain in cant wait for her and him to go back through the hole they crawled through, infact they can take Denise Chelsea and Squiggle with them aswell while they are at it

[PR1811]

I'm pretty sure Denise felt he wouldn't turn up but what was she to do, sit at home 'knowing' he won't turn up?! she had to go, and when he didn't turn up it wasn't the shock that upset her but the fact he was saying he was gonna kill her.

Owen's mum needs another bump on the head to bring her to her senses.

[DaVeyWaVey]

Another fantastic episode tonight...Denise reacting at the end was brilliant, top notch acting tonight!

The DS storyline is still going strong, i can't believe Peggy don't have any faith in Billy and Honey over Petal, atleast Jack believes that they will be able to cope.

The Sean/Ruby stuff was boring.

Overall 10/10. :)

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I feel sorry for Billy & Honey, Peggy knows Billy, she knows he tried hard with little Freddie even though he found it difficult and thats what they will do with Petal, gees have faith would you woman

[Johnny Allen]

Diane Parish and Lee Ross- fantastic acting once again from the pair. Could do without Sean and that annoying Ruby but apart from that excellent episodes Dot was hilarious as usual 'Deano buff'.

[littlemo]

Yeah Peggy is being difficult. Like you said she has no faith in Billy, which I find strange because I thought he was a tower of strength throughout that whole Little Mo saga. He's certainly stronger emotionally than Phil or Grant.

I really liked that stuff with the Foxes. I think it's great now that Kevin is involved in it. He is so good for Denise. I really like them as a couple.

Sean was so like Dennis when he had sex with that rep. I can't believe he'd do that in the club right under Ruby's nose. He was a real swine! lol. You'd think Jake would say something to Ruby wouldn't you?! but maybe he doesn't believe in grassing.

I think Peggy's issue is not over their ability to cope. Before he had Honey and Petal, Peggy made no secret of the fact that she didn't regard Billy as a Mitchell; I doubt she can see a down's syndrome baby as one either.

[Siobhan]

Diane Parish and Lee Ross- fantastic acting once again from the pair. Could do without Sean and that annoying Ruby but apart from that excellent episodes Dot was hilarious as usual 'Deano buff'.

Totally agree, fab actors and they played the parts blinding... EE has turned it up a gear this week and have some fantastic storylines.
Again agree with the whole Ruby/Sean story... It could have waited

[Katy]

Fab episdoe, but Ruby/sean doesnt do EE any favours its a pants secondary storyline. with Billy and honey and Owen and Denise it really isnt needed.

[littlemo]

I wasn't sure about the Ruby/Sean thing at first, but I am starting to like it now. Sean is growing on me, and the stuff coming up seems very good. I'm looking forward to Stacey getting involved in this.

I think the point of a soap is having lots of different storylines happening at the same time. That's why my mum likes Corrie so much! lol.

[CrazyLea]

Tonights was brilliant. I'm really enjoying this week. Owen is great, as is Denise. Even Libby is good this week. Loved the end...will she be okay :eek: Can't wait for tomorrows!

[x Amby x]

loved tonights episode, thats the best its been in a long time!! Libby was really good tonight as was Denise and Owen! Lets hope Owen has gone for good this time!!! I hope Libby is ok i think the stuff between her and Denise has been really good!

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

BRILLIANT STUFF!! I nearly leaped into the screen and I had tears in my eyes at the end when I saw Denise's face!! :( Sad but excellent stuff!! :thumbsup:

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I wasnt really paying attention as i was trying to do some HTML stuff and it involves alot of concentration however Bryan did tell me what had happened and it sounds good, i shall have to watch it sunday. This week has been good though shame they cant do episodes to this quality all the time.

[Siobhan]

:bow::bow: Bravo Diane Parish and Lee Ross for superb acting last night. The girl who played Libby was also blinding. Forget Nick trying to kill his Mum, Forget Trevor terrorising little Mo.. Make way for Owen: Wife beater, mother beaten and now trying to kill his child.. excellent edge of your seat stuff...

Personaly if I was Denise, i would check Libby was ok, get Kevin to ring and ambulance and go and stand on Owen's back to make sure he never gets up out of that water.... Roll on tonight and welcome back EE :clap::clap::clap:

I totally agree it is back on top form, i just hope they keep it like this, but knowing Eastenders i very much doubt it, they will win back a few views then letus all down again

[littlemo]

Yes, excellent! It was gripping stuff!

I love Kevin and Denise together. He's so good in these situations. He looks like he really loves her.

Owen is a really brilliant actor too. It was just wow!

[Abbie]

Great, it was so gripping, and what an ending!!!!
Just the two bodies there was awkward to look at but this makes such a good storyline.

[Abbie]

I love Kevin and Denise together. He's so good in these situations. He looks like he really loves her.
awwww i know I think they are great together and this storyline is great for them, instead of nay other couple stotyline if you know what i mean

[Johnny Allen]

an excellent episode I was literally screaming at the screen wanting to know what has happened. Superb acting from all- Phil Daniels and Diane Parish wonderful together, Lee Ross in particular has been a revelation as Owen

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I think it was a bit of a let down tonight, after the build up in the week it was a bit of a nothing episode tonight

[Kim]

Yeah, definitely. We've had all the Denise and Chelsea stuff in the episode that Chelsea accused Denise of not loving her because her father didn't stick around. It also could have been better if we saw the scene at the side of the water where Denise obviously would have been worried that Squiggle/Libby was dead.

[margaret]

:angry: I thought tonights episode was the biggest let down, following a very tense and dramatic episode yesterday,that i have ever seen.It was ridiculous to get the point where you didn't know who lived or died,then all of a sudden the drama is over,Owen has been arrested and Libby is ok in hospital.I honestly thought i must have missed an episode.

Dreadful writing,i cannot believe they have treated us faithful fans like this.

:angry:

I agree it was like i had missed something but i knew i hadnt, i wasnt impressed with it, it could have been and should have been much better

[Abbie]

I think it was a bit of a let down tonight, after the build up in the week it was a bit of a nothing episode tonight yer i suppose so, i was expecting soemthing more dramatic

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

yer i suppose so, i was expecting soemthing more dramatic

Typical Eastenders build it up all good then drop back down to crap by the end of it, i reckon they need new writter who know what they are doing

[littlemo]

Yeah. On a happier note though, I'm really glad the Fox family are moving into Pat's. There can't be much room for them all, but I love Kevin and Denise together, she deserves some happiness!

[*-Rooney-*]

whare on earth has bert been for the past few weeks cos i havent saw him for ages then he just showed up again on our screens again tonight

[crazygirl]

belinda got a mention :cheer:....... bring her back :cheer: :cheer:

[Siobhan]

How nasty was that health worker last night talking about how brave billy and honey are too look after Petal and that she didn't seem many of "them things" around in her days!!! I am glad Billy kicked her out! Jack was also uncalled for.. telling Billy that he is not looking after Honey properly.. whatelse could he have done that Billy hadn't already done..

Glad to see Minty finally seen SJ for what she is but I think that is only jealousy.. he will be back fawning all over her... Ian is going to hit the roof with Jane for sending the car to the arches.. but then again, he was just been petty

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I agree she was well nasty to have said that to Billy & Honey, aren't health visitors meant to be professionals, its just wrong saying that and OMG what was Jack on lastnight cant he see Billy tried his best, he couldnt have done anything else

[Dutchgirl]

:thumbsdow Jack should just back of, and leave things to Billy an Honey they are adults. I understand he loves his little girl, but enough is enough, he behaves like a monster in law. And the careworker from hell, I would think they would have special careworkers for these kind of situations, like the nurse in hospital. Honey and Billy are entitled to special help. Don't they have that kind of specialized aid in the UK?

[Chris_2k11]

Omg how annoying is this thing with that SJ getting?! Her voice grates on me! :angry: No offence to any Australians btw haha. it's just her!

[Siobhan]

have to agree SJ is annoying the hell out of me... I like the austrialian accent but her voice just grates me

Laughed my ass off when Ian tried to steal the car and phil was in the back seat :rotfl::rotfl:

I wish Jack would just go.. Billy is trying so hard to get honey to accept Petal and if he keeps doing everything for her then she is never going to be a mum to the child. Jack is driving me mad :angry::angry:

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Loved the bit when Ian tried to steal the car, it was classic, just his luck Phil would be in the back aint it really :rotfl:

I dont like Syd/Sid in the slightest as soon as he goes the better and quite honestly he could take SJ with him aswell and i wouldnt care, shes a pain and Minty should just move back in with Garry, he didnt use him but i suppose if Minty is stupid enough to fall out with Garry over some silly woman who is after his money then thats his fault really.

Dont get me started on Jack, did he have to come back, i wish he had stayed where ever he dissapeared to if he is going to behave the way he is and he can take Peggy and her opinions with him aswell so Billy and Honey can be left to look after Petal themselves the way they want to.

[Abbie]

:thumbsdow Jack should just back of, and leave things to Billy an Honey they are adults. I know i just wanted to shout at him, plus he must understand that what he is doing, isnt helping the situation

[Sam-Elle]

Laughed my ass off when Ian tried to steal the car and phil was in the back seat :rotfl::rotfl:

yeah you aint the only one, :rotfl:
oh god can some one just kill sj right now or better yet shut her up, she is doing my head in.
i really dont like jack right now

[Chris_2k11]

Laughed my ass off when Ian tried to steal the car and phil was in the back seat :rotfl::rotfl:Lmao that was hilarious! :rotfl: :rotfl:

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I enjoyed last nights episode, it wasnt brilliant but then it wasnt bad either, the stuff with Billy and Honey was good im pleased his shown her that Petal wants her not Jack all the time.

Stuff with Phil and Ian/Phil and Ben was good aswell good on Phil for telling Ian about Grant and Jane i didnt want him to tell him but Ian was behaving like an idiot as usual so he needed to be brought down a bit and that was a good way to shut him up.

[Siobhan]

I really enjoyed last night.. Ian was been petty but after the accident I don't think he was been petty at all.. He could have been killed!! I wonder how he is going to be tonight ????

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Yeah i see why Ian reacted that way after the accident but the whole thing with saying Phil cant provide Ben with a happy family i think was out of order so im glad Phil came back with the Grant/Jane revelation

[Siobhan]

Yeah i see why Ian reacted that way after the accident but the whole thing with saying Phil cant provide Ben with a happy family i think was out of order so im glad Phil came back with the Grant/Jane revelation

But the thing is, I don't think phil can provide Ben with the loving family he needs.. Ian is in a relationship and has children for Ben to interact with. Ben has become more spoilt and horrible since going to Phil..

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Okay Ian has Peter Lucy and on occassions Bobby aswell who could provide a nice family for Ben but you cant fault Phil he loves Ben and he thinks his doing the right thing by spoiling him, we know his not but Phil thinks that by buying Ben the video shop thats love and thats what his doing "loving" his child, maybe yes in reality Ian would provide a nice home/family for Ben but Phil does love Ben just a little differently to what Ian and most other people would call love.

[Siobhan]

Yes I agree Phil does love Ben but from last night it was clear Ben only has friends because of what his dad can give him.. they are not really friends who don't give a damn if you have money or not. Ben is with phil for 2 reasons, Protection and money... He loves known that his Dad will give him what he wants and fight his battles.. i have to agree with Ian, this is not what Kathy would have wanted

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I think most kids would be happier to live with someone who could provide for them financially (phil) over someone who could give them a family environment (Ian) especially boys, im not saying all boys but most lads that i know wont wear for example a plain black t-shirt from some unknown shop for maybe £3 just because it doesnt have Nike or what ever on it they would rather spend £20 on a plain black t-shirt with a little Nike symbol in the corner so when it comes to chosing who to live with out of the one who would get you that £3 top or the one who would getyou the £20 Nike one i think most lads would go with who ever would get the Nike one in this case Phil

[Mr Humphries]

Its Phil acting like a pants father, Ben dont need a video shop to been shown thats how much daddy loves you ? I bet it dont even make a profit!!

[DaVeyWaVey]

A good episode last night, loved the scenes with Billy and Honey, they were the highlight of the episode...Perry Fenwick and Emma Barton are really doing this storyline justice.

Ian's face at the end was a picture! I can understand why he reacted the way he did after the accident though. I can't wait until tonight to see how Ian reacts.

I hope Ian realises that it wasnt phil trying to kill him as he reaction will be great! I can completly agree with his reaction but it phil seamed genuinly worried when he heard the crash.

The billy honey petal storyline is well acted and written in a way which reflects the worries and feeling of parents with downs children

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

The billy honey petal storyline is well acted and written in a way which reflects the worries and feeling of parents with downs children

Totally agree there they have handled it really well, well done to Eastenders and all the cast involved with it :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

[no1abbafan]

It was ok last night, but they are re-hashing the Ian/Phil feud, there is only so much you can take. Also those phone calls Jake is getting, obviously from Sean, what a load of nonsense.

[Katy]

Ian was the funniest last night. He was so funny and i flet so sorry for him. It was his face when he realised the wheel camer off. do you think he will be abole to forgive Jane.

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

For some reason I don't think it's from Sean.. I just got this feeling :searchme:

[Abbie]

awww im so proud of billy, and now things are the way things should be. I felt a tad sorry for Hack though, but he was not helping the situation.

[littlemo]

Really good episode. I enjoyed the stuff with Ian/Jane and Phil. I can see a 'Laura' type situation developing here. It's clear that Ian isn't going to just let this drop. Don't throw Jane out on Christmas Day though, that's just too similar!

I like that Big Mo and Charlie have re-entered the scenes. Stacey has got family, and it's good when we get to see them. It sort of explains why she is the way she is. Like seeing Max and Rachel explains why Bradley's the way he is. Big Mo is funny! And I love seeing Bradley being thrown in with them lot lol.

I hope Jack's talk with Peggy worked. I reckon it did, because there seemed to be a point to it. I'm glad Jack recognised that he needed to leave, it made him go up in my estimations. I still would have liked to have seen him give an apology to Billy, but I suppose actions are louder than words.

Oh and that scene with Jake made me laugh loads lol. 'no i'm not ready to live out my years in your retirement home, i'm 33 years old!' lol. Ha ha ha.

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I have a feeling Ian is up to something, i dont know what, but something doesnt quite add up, i mean he hasnt had the best luck with women and he has just found out Jane is the latest in a long line of people to take him for a fool and by now he must be sick of it so he wouldnt propose to her and mean it surely.

Glad Jack has gone he was bugging me, nice words to Peggy though i hope she listens as she shouldnt be avoiding her granddaughter she should be round there loving her no matter what is wrong with her.

What was Mo wearing :rotfl: loved the little bit with Mo, Charlie, Stacey and Bradley at the beginning

[parkerman]

Well I was glad to see that Winston had two good speaking parts last week. Perhaps this is the start of the big time for him. Let's hope so. :thumbsup:

[Kim]

I doubt it. They gave Tracy a good part when Sam smashed up the Vic last summer but it still didn't lead to anything big for the character.

[parkerman]

Yes, I doubt it too.

But I can live in hope...:D

[crazygirl]

tonights episode was ok, the end was a bit spooky

[CrazyLea]

tonights episode was ok, the end was a bit spooky
Yeah it was.. I didn't get it :lol:

[littlemo]

Yeah it was.. I didn't get it :lol:

He was mean't to think his nan had come back from the dead. It was just stupid! I started to think I was watching The Bold and The Beautiful or something! lol.

God Ruby is so naive. How can she not see what's right in front of her?
Her to Jake 'you can't tell the difference between flirting and being a good barman'. Sean isn't exactly doing much to hide the fact that he think he's a
free agent is he?! And yet she feels she needs to protect him?

I think Jake should tell Ruby straight about Sean sleeping with that agent.
She might not believe him, but at least he would have tried. And it
might put a bit of doubt in her mind.

Don't know how long this arrangement at Pat's is gonna last. I think it's a bit silly really. There's so many of them and I think Kevin and Denise should find their own space. I'd have to be with Squiggle, but Pat shouldn't be there. It's very awkward.

I'm liking Ian and Jane, it's good! Still not sure what Ian's intentions are. He seemed quite genuine tonight but I don't think you could forget that easily.

There's some good stuff at the moment! As there is in Corrie. It's all good in soapworld! :)

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Omg!! The end bit with Jake scared the life out of me :eek:.. Only when I realised 'nana' was in the bed after watching it the 2nd time... *Shudders*

Good episode.. stupid Ruby and especially MEGA :p Stupid Minty!!

[Abbie]

Omg!! The end bit with Jake scared the life out of me :eek:.. Only when I realised 'nana' was in the bed after watching it the 2nd time... *Shudders*
I know same here, i mean what is going on?

[JustJodi]

Ok ok what the heck is going on ????? I go off to the USA for 4 weeks and come back to EE which has totally gone off the rails !!! LOL This thing with Jake is plain STUPID, I had him pegged being just a tad bit BRIGHTER ,, ah well I am now seeing why EE is loosing to the other soaps, its just gotten DUMBER :lol:

[no1abbafan]

This Jake/Sean/Ruby storyline is so silly - the sooner Ruby goes the better and takes that excuse for a man Sean with her. Jake is turning into spineless wonder, which totally ruins the character, but par for the course with EE writers, they turned Alfie from a cheeky chappie to a jealous nutter. Minty, well that's another waste of a character, wasn't he the vindictive landlord Laura Beale once had, look at him now, he's acting like Dopey from the Seven Dwarfs. THe EE writers should hand their heads with shame.

[parkerman]

Don't know how long this arrangement at Pat's is gonna last. I think it's a bit silly really. There's so many of them and I think Kevin and Denise should find their own space. I'd have to be with Squiggle, but Pat shouldn't be there. It's very awkward.



How many rooms does Pat's house have? There has to be one room for Pat; one for Kevin and Denise; one for Carly; one for Deano; and, assuming Chelsea and Squiggle share, one for them. That makes five bedrooms.

It's a bit like the Slaters. How do they cram in all the people they have as well? They must be big houses round Albert Square way...

[Siobhan]

I was thinking this too.. I know that Carly and Chelsea share so maybe squiggle is in with them too.. Denise and Kevin, Pat and Deano all have their own room so that would be 4 bedrooms.. Remember Pat, billy and the mitchel clan lived there for a while too...

[Sam-Elle]

maybe the houses are like the tardis, looks small on the outside and big on the inside...unless someones sleeping on the sofa.

There was a reference to Carly and Chelsea sharing one; so Squiggle is probably in there as well.

[Kim]

I loved the ending. Especially when Jake said "Nana." My friend also made it funnier as she asked me if Sean dug Nana up and put her in her bed; she actually got cremated :rotfl:

[no1abbafan]

Another pile of P** - I stopped watching this for months, started back about 2 weeks ago, now leaving it again, I can't watch anymore drivel Sean/Ruby/Jake rubbish and Minty/SJ - what another load of poo

[Mr Humphries]

I just dont think I can cope with this anymore. What is the ******************** of SJ and Sid !! Plus Sean was already driving me insane but its it now. I am going to drink the entire contents of my front bar !

[littlemo]

I just dont think I can cope with this anymore. What is the ******************** of SJ and Sid !! Plus Sean was already driving me insane but its it now. I am going to drink the entire contents of my front bar !

lol. I agree. It's so stupid the way they make Sean grin after every episode. We all know what they are trying to acheive, but at the moment it seems pretty pointless.

I do feel sorry for Jake. I don't see how people know Sean is a good person based on the fact that he's 'Stacey's brother'. That's all that Pat has to go on.

I wanted to scream at Minty when he ran out on his job to go after SJ. What the hell is wrong with him?!

[Nigella harman]

Did Sean just look into the camera and smile?:eek: or did i imagine that.?I dont like him!

[littlemo]

Did Sean just look into the camera and smile?:eek: or did i imagine that.?I dont like him!

He had his face towards the camera and he was smiling. But I think he was mean't to be just smiling to himself.

[JustJodi]

Ok granted Sean is good looking but my gawd he has an evil glint in his eye..
Does any one else think he is capable of murder ??

Can Minty get any dumber ??? walking off of the job he was lucky enuff to get back..How come Sid is making an appearance with SJ now ??
I guess I am asking questions cuz I missed 4 weeks of EE while I was in the states :crying:

[Lizzie Brookes]

Hi

I know I'm in the minority here but I really like the Jake/Ruby/Seanstuff, its really gripping. Sean was quite scary last night with his manic grin and that was an evil thing to do that night, in Nana's bedroom. Yet Jake has no evidence its Sean and Pat's right - he could be being paramnoid as well. I didn't believe it wasSean uintil last night's episode when he smiled. Unfortunately Ruby would naturally trust her boyfriend and normally that is ok and Jakes behaviour was quite erratic before the Mitchells helpedhim so from Ruby's viewpoint Jake's the one with the problem.

I wonde how Sean got in if he didn't break in? And why would he stalk Jake in the first place? I thought he was only after Ruby's cash. I hope Minty finds out the truth soon. He deserves better. The stuff with Ian/Jane is ok.

[parkerman]

And why would he stalk Jake in the first place? I thought he was only after Ruby's cash.

I think you've answered your own question there. He knows Jake is trying to protect Ruby so he is trying to get him out of the way.

Sean is like a villain in an old Victorian melodrama with that cheesy grin every five minutes.

p.s. Can I come and join you Mr Humphries?

[Siobhan]

shame he doesn't have a moustache to twirl!!! Watch out ruby, you could be tied to the railway tracks soon.. Jake to the rescue :rotfl::rotfl:
I have to agree Parkerman.. it is all a bit 18th century villiany

[crazygirl]

minty is such a fool and hope he comes to his senses very soon!
this sean/jake thing is doing my head in and i cant wait until its over
and im so glad ian and jane are getting married but i cant help but wonder what ian is up to

[Richie_lecturer]

I'm surprised Sean doesn't go upto the camera and wink at the end of every scene.

I'm off to Mr Humphries' place too. You should start up your own business with a group of us coming along!

[alan45]

I just dont think I can cope with this anymore. What is the ******************** of SJ and Sid !! Plus Sean was already driving me insane but its it now. I am going to drink the entire contents of my front bar ! You will need to get your bar extended for all the people who have now given up on EE:D

[Jessica Watson]

It has been a little boring for the past two weeks but all soaps have dips.

EastEnders had a strong summer of storylines. Christmas is what they are working up to now.

NOT

[Mr Humphries]

Well I for one hope she does not get killed off, it will be a big mistake for Eastenders

[Chris_2k11]

Well I for one hope she does not get killed off, it will be a big mistake for EastendersMaking mistakes is one of EastEnders hobbies these days.

[crazygirl]

why does sean look at the camera every time he's on? wouldnt you think eastenders would stop him from doing that

[parkerman]

That's what you do if you're a Victorian melodrama villain!:)

[Nigella harman]

why does sean look at the camera every time he's on? wouldnt you think eastenders would stop him from doing that I know!!Its awful!someone on another forum actually posted a still of him looking directly into the camera at the end and they put a comedy villian laugh in a speech bubble coming out of his mouth!!!I think hes a bit rubbish!hopefully he will improve but at the moment Im not his biggest fan!!!

[crazygirl]

lets see how many times he looks at the camera tonight

[Siobhan]

lets see how many times he looks at the camera tonight

It just came to me who he reminds me off: Alex from BB (the guy who loved himself, same group as Jade) he was always looking and winking in the camera but he was on a game show not suppose to be an actor

[Chris_2k11]

Haha BUSTED!! :banned:

[Mr Humphries]

Well what an episode night !! They surely dont get much worse !! Singing, a fight over a twenty pound note, and the whole SJ/SID/MINTY GATE ! There was a moment that SJ's acting looked ok, but then it was off with the clothing and back into bed. Sid must be the most randy's person alive, he always has no clothes on.

It was a shocking Episdoe and what the hell was Peggy's singing all about !

[Jessica Watson]

I thought it was enjoyable tonight, much better than the last few episodes and much stronger than Emmerdale was earlier.

[Sam-Elle]

haha! dawn and the locals aint the only ones sick of karaoke night. is that the only event that the vic can come up with. the idea of the kcxcrew was better than that. peggy murdering my way is not what i want to see on a thursday night, let alone sonia, martin, denise and yolande.
paulines face when martin and sonia were singing, just imagine her face in the next couple of weeks.
im not at all bothered by sj/sid/minty, waste of time if you ask me.

[crazygirl]

minty has found sj out at long last :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

[Chris_2k11]

So glad this yawnfest is over. Worst storyline of 2006 by a mile.

[Richie_lecturer]

I thought it was enjoyable tonight, much better than the last few episodes and much stronger than Emmerdale was earlier.
..and did you need to bring another soap into this discussion? :confused:

Watched it tonight for the first time in ages and thought it was absolutely terrible. I'm off to your place Mr Humphries. I'll just pre-book a taxi to take me home after I've consumed some of your finest selection of beveridges.

[Richie_lecturer]

minty has found sj out at long last :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
Yes he has just discovered......














































....she is Australian. :cool:

[alan45]

What a pitiful episode tonight. When are they going to get some decent scriptwriters into Elstree. The 1.2 million wasted on the crap new intros would have been better spent trying to refloat this sinking soap

[parkerman]

There's only one way to save Eastenders now...and that is to give Winston a major part...:cheer:

[Siobhan]

There's only one way to save Eastenders now...and that is to give Winston a major part...:cheer:

At last.. the big Winston and Tracey storyline.. i knew they would use it in the end.. I never gave up hope with my wonderful script for those two Wincey!! so much better than Shannis :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

[Katy]

I have to say that comment has just made my day, It really made me laugh.

It was an absolute yawnfest last night i agree. About time that none story of SJ came to an end.

[Richie_lecturer]

Winston organises drive-by shooting and kills half the cast (dead wood).

Then Winston will be untouchable. :thumbsup:

[parkerman]

And be everyone's hero in to the bargain.

[alan45]

And be everyone's hero in to the bargain. Yes and fit in with the writers obsession for Gangstas. Then again as he is from an ethnic minority the PC brigade may not want to stereotype him.

[Sam-Elle]

ooh! johnnys back!...roll on monday

[Lizzie Brookes]

I believe Jake now that I saw Sean in his flat with my own eyes. Before, I wasn't sure, there wasn't any evidence. How did Sean get in? Through the window?

[Mr Humphries]

It was fabulous when the looked up. Roll On Monday As You Say !! Looks like he still runs things from the nick !! :rotfl: :rotfl:

[crazygirl]

i enjoyed last nights episode! did feel sorry for mints though

[Mr Humphries]

I felt sorry for Minty, but you have to ask the question, "ARE YOU BLIND" But he did sum up him and Gary very well. Maybe the executive producer should take the hint !!

Only 57 more posts for me to be aloud in the shoutbox !

Go Mr Hump Go !:cheer: :cheer:

And then Mr Humphries can shout loud enough for the EE boss to hear his pleas for Gary & Minty to vanish.

[Richie_lecturer]

You really feeling sorry for mints? Bah mint humbug.

Taxi for Minty to Everton please, where he can mingle with fellow Everton Mints. His departure will be a breath of fresh air.

[Richie_lecturer]

It's the (in)famous EE black hole. Actually I've just heard it was the tardis that got Sean into Jake the peg's house. David Tennants sunning himself in Albania for a while so he gave EE permission to guard his phone-box, as long as they didn't rung up huge phone bills. Unfortunately Sean the brawn took it.

Will Johnny gun down half the Square (dead wood) or will a lifetime of Little Chef breakfasts contribute towards the premature end of his reign of terror?

[Mr Humphries]

I am getting there, maybe another day and I will be aloud in the box where only few ever step !! :rotfl:

Thanks Babe ! :heart:

I like Minty too. He is such a huggy bear, cannot stand him being miserable.

[crazygirl]

i think they should find a nice woman for minty he deserves some happiness

[JustJodi]

What a yawn fiestival we had Friday nite,, quite frankly I was bored to tears,,Ok so Minty has finally found out that CJ was a con woman ( yawwwwwn took em long enuff to get around to this episode)
Only remotely interesting tidbit was Denise saying that her daddy was a member of the HECTOR vocal band,,

Ohhhh( fighting off another YAWN) the whole Martin and Pauline thing is so OLD. How many times has MARTIN given Pauline "another CHANCE" to stop sticking her beak into his personal life and interfering ???

Bring on Johnny Allen .. should be interesting,,,

[Mr Humphries]

Just cant wait until this evening because it is going to be great Johnny back on the screen's !! I just wish that EE scriptwriters and listened when he said he did NOT want to be killed off !!

This whole Pauline/Martin/Sonia thing must be over soon, oh hang on not until Christmas Day !! Arrrrh :angry:

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

If you ask me it is about time he found out about SJ, he must be either blind or stupid, maybe even both of those, he was the only one that couldnt see it, he should have listened to Garry instead of letting it get that far, if he had of done that in the first time it would have saved viewers a lot of time and he would have saved him self almost losing Garry as his mate and his home, complete waste of a story line to be honest.

[crazygirl]

well what a load of rubbish tonights episode was and that sean is doing my head in i just wish someone would shoot him!!

[Sam-Elle]

yawn!!! am i still awake, that was soo boring the only thing that i liked was sean whistling and that was it...
so what johnnys back, didnt make an impact for me tonight, seems like just any other day in albert square.

[Mr Humphries]

I was expecting loads more from tonight, but Bill Murray aka Johnny Allen still has it and has lost his touch !!

[crazygirl]

[JustJodi]

Can some one please tell me when Sean is gonna leave? I am so sick of his smirky face,, I barely could stay awake to watch the program tonight.. the only part that was barely worth watching for a few minutes was the whole Denise and Patrick fiasco.:wall:
Are any of you counting the days till Pauline leaves ???:hmm: :searchme:

[matt1378]

cool we all think alike i dont know anyone that likes Sean, good to see you guys on here hate him also

[Siobhan]

I am sorry but last night was appauling... I hope this doesn't offend any black people but it is compuslory for Yolande and Patrick to suck their teeth in every scene.. It is very very stereotypical... but then again that is all EE is

Next episode is just those two not speaking, just sucking their teeth, in walks Gus in a pimp coat calls "wassup" does a funky hand shake and says "Word to yo momma". Then the irish family come back, singing an irish ditty and saying "top of the morning to you".. then we have Sean, twirling his villian mustache to the camera every 5 secs
Mind you, us viewer are a bit thick so we would never know who was Black/Irish or a villian without the good work from EE

[Jojo]

I watched for the first time in months last night and boy do I now remember why I have stopped watching!

Like you said Siobhan, the teeth sucking was just too much.

Sean Slater is as menacing as my sons hamster!

Why does Ruby not want Johnny meeting him? I know I haven't watched for ages, but surely if he's as great as she says he is to her old man, she'd want him to meet him wouldn't he? :searchme:

[Siobhan]

she is scared her dad won't like him and kill him. which is what he wants to do anyway..

[LostVoodoo]

Like you said Siobhan, the teeth sucking was just too much.

i have no idea what you two are on about, am i being totally ignorant here? i hadn't noticed any 'teeth sucking', let alone that it was a stereotype that black people did it all the time. what exactly do you mean by 'teeth sucking' anyway?

[Jojo]

i have no idea what you two are on about, am i being totally ignorant here? i hadn't noticed any 'teeth sucking', let alone that it was a stereotype that black people did it all the time. what exactly do you mean by 'teeth sucking' anyway? Like when you tut, but suck air between your teeth - its the only way I can describe it really. I've always known it as a stereotypical thing to do and Yolande is the biggest culprit in EE, she always seems to be doing it. Its whenever shes hacked off about something, she does it.

Sorry I can't describe it any better than that really.

[LostVoodoo]

ah right, i thought that's what you meant, but i wasn't sure since i hadn't noticed it! i shall keep an eye out tonight

[Richie_lecturer]

Are any of you counting the days till Pauline leaves ???:hmm: :searchme:
I am.

69 days and counting. :p

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Isn't that like a spoiler? :searchme: Johnny's back... needs livening up still!!..

[Mr Humphries]

Dont be mean about Pauline ! Although I do understand what you mean.

Johnny is back, but is going to be a very boring week still and as quick as he can he is off again !

[Abbie]

yawn!!! am i still awake, that was soo boring the only thing that i liked was sean whistling and that was it...
Lol I just that was freaky and well freaked me out

[JustJodi]

I certainly hope that Johnny draws up papers and says Ruby can not have the night club, house, and money until she is 21,, would teach her a lesson and she would find out that Sean is gonna scamper off as soon as he finds out she is not going to be the MILLIONAIRESS ( she is supposed to be a millionairess right ??? )he was hoping to rip off,,:thumbsdow
Anyway,, how many of you GROANNNNNNNED when Sonia and Martin got all lovey dovey again???:wall:
What did you all think of the wake at the Vic ??? :hmm:

[Mr Humphries]

I thought that the funeral bit was quite funny, cant work out where I have seen the other guy, had a feeling he was smart butler somewhere "Oh god was it that thing with Will Smith the Fresh Prince of Bel Air" ???

Martin and Sonia was just pure sick !!! Can't wait to see Pauline's Face !

[crazygirl]

omg, omg, omg, last night!! who was johnny talking to on the phone?
before his heart attack well all i can say is watch out jake sounds like johnny wants you dead!!!!

[Mr Humphries]

Yeap Jake is dead thats for sure, but Johnny did not mean it, that bloke who was staying in the same cell is more than likely the one who gets the job done ! :crying: :crying:

[Nigella harman]

Oh my word,Jakes in trouble,We were so close to getting rid of evil Sean!

[parkerman]

How appallingly contrived and unrealistic was that ending??? Dreadful.

However, I have to say, give him his due, I thought Sean was absolutely brilliant in that episode. His conversation with Johnny was magic. I'm now officially a Sean fan!:thumbsup:

[Johnny Allen]

yeah he played the butler, Alfred I think it was.

I really enjoyed yesterdays episode, Sean vs Johnny was great when Sean called him a toss-pot I couldnt stop laughing, Seans shaping up to be a great character.

[Chris_2k11]

It actually wasn't a bad episode last night, I was quite surprised. I think tonight's will also be good.

Can't say i'll miss Jake Was never much of a fan.

[Mr Humphries]

yeah he played the butler, Alfred I think it was.

I really enjoyed yesterdays episode, Sean vs Johnny was great when Sean called him a toss-pot I couldnt stop laughing, Seans shaping up to be a great character.

It was a good episode and I too loved it when Sean called him a toss-pot. But who is the bloke who shared Johnny's cell, i've seen him before somewhere?

[Katy]

the toss pot bit was the best in the epsode. thought Jonnys death was poor but liked the scene between him and Sean in the prison.

And it does not look good for Jake does it.

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

What the hell was that? never seen such rubbish in my entire life, they didnt it again, they built it up all week and it was crap at the end, i have never been so bored watching Eastenders in my life after that i would say that who ever has stopped watching it probably has the right idea :lol:

[Mr Humphries]

Think that was a bit harsh, but it is your opinion and thats what this board is all about, my take on it was that it was very good and the best this week, great that final Ruby was put in her place by Jake and told a few home truths. My theory that Johnny is not dead seems even more strong now that no final dying scene was filmed ! Buy that is just my opinion !

As for Jake's exit, very much the same as Paul Truman's but that is gangland murder for you .

On the whole it was a good episode in my opinion:)

I was bored tonight, i wouldnt stop watching Eastenders though after tonights episode i kinda wish i never saw it,you would think if your killing two people in one episode at least one of them would get a decent send off i mean Jake wasstill very much alive at 29 mins past 8 and for all we know he still could be alive (i doubt it but as they didnt show it its possible) i dont think it was very good at all tonight

[Sam-Elle]

i dont think it was very good at all tonight

i agree with that! wasnt really interested in it. before ruby even said johnny had gone we knew...were we suposed to feel sorry for her at that point?
i didnt...as for jake, well he didnt look like a dead man to me...i think he will rock up in the next few years, knowing ee it is possible.

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Totally agree, it was obvious what them people had said to Ruby and they could have at least shown eith him or Jake die but nope it is Eastenders after all no point getting your hopes up they always seem to let you down at the moment

[Sam-Elle]

no point getting your hopes up they always seem to let you down at the moment

yeah! all that hype about johnny being back, complete waste of time. christmas is looking dull right about now...this time last year i was loving ee, what a difference a year makes. the past week has been a total let down if you ask me.

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

yeah! all that hype about johnny being back, complete waste of time. christmas is looking dull right about now...this time last year i was loving ee, what a difference a year makes. the past week has been a total let down if you ask me.

Well ill admit last year it wasnt as good as earlier times *thinks back to stories such as Sonia not knowing she was pregnant, Nick trying to kill Dot etc* but compaired to tonight last year was excellent, as soon a loyal fans like me who love the show and watch no matter what start to get bored that is a sign they are losing the plot

[Mr Humphries]

All very interesting points, but then what you like, its not always the same as other people's. However your points are good like when life long loyal fans get bored the soap is in trouble.

Should not have killed Johnny off if they have done it.

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Yeah sure i know everyone is different im not saying just because i didnt like it then everyone else would have aswell, some people probably enjoyed it but i didn't i mean how obvious was it that just as Ruby is seeing sense and deciding to go see Johnny them two people would show up and tell her he died.

The other night (thursday about 7ish) i was talking to my mum and i said that he would have the heart attack thursday night then friday they would focus on Jake, this was even before i had seen it i said this and i wasnt wrong was i? thats their problem its so predictable they never change things, what would have really been good was if they did something no one was expecting but i think they dont like change much and want to play it safe by sticking to what they know but its that which makes it boring, whats the point watching something that you can just guess what will happen and when, thats no fun, viewers want to be kept guessing.

[parkerman]

My theory that Johnny is not dead seems even more strong now that no final dying scene was filmed ! Buy that is just my opinion !


And why would two people from the prison come round and tell Ruby he's dead then? It's not April 1st?

[JustJodi]

And why would two people from the prison come round and tell Ruby he's dead then? It's not April 1st?


Those women could have been part of the ploy ??? Could be "gun molls"dressed up as prison families service workers... knowing how far fetched EE writers are,, who knows,,,:searchme:

[x Amby x]

i think it was quite good that Jake finally gave Ruby some home truths! I love the way everytime Sean see's Ruby and shes crying how he always rolls his eyes in dispear! i thought that Jakes exit was pretty crap to be honest!

[Mr Humphries]

And why would two people from the prison come round and tell Ruby he's dead then? It's not April 1st?

True but then who has ever heard of a Prison Govenor going to see a family member after a death ! Its all too dodgy for my liking plus did they actually say he is dead to Ruby?

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

i think it was quite good that Jake finally gave Ruby some home truths! I love the way everytime Sean see's Ruby and shes crying how he always rolls his eyes in dispear! i thought that Jakes exit was pretty crap to be honest!

[Mr Humphries]

Those women could have been part of the ploy ??? Could be "gun molls"dressed up as prison families service workers... knowing how far fetched EE writers are,, who knows,,,:searchme:

I doubt anything will come of it, but it just appears that the Scriptwriters have left so many doors open that he could return one day, I mean it was worse than the Daffodils to be honest, least we heard a splash ! I would bet one of the pubs that he will return one day for sure !

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

True but then who has ever heard of a Prison Govenor going to see a family member after a death ! Its all too dodgy for my liking plus did they actually say he is dead to Ruby?

You didnt hear them say it but they must of said it or else Ruby wouldnt have been telling Shaun he had died

[Mr Humphries]

You didnt hear them say it but they must of said it or else Ruby wouldnt have been telling Shaun he had died

Unless, she was told the truth, and when she leaves shortly she is going to meet him?? :hmm: :hmm: :hmm:


Ooooo plus we all know that escaped prisoners are never sent back to jail after all Phil was wanted for escape and nothing was ever said about that, and Grant was wanted by the police but he returned ! The only one who was questioned was Dirty Den !

[Johnny Allen]

And why would two people from the prison come round and tell Ruby he's dead then? It's not April 1st?

this is soapland though and anything is possible.

[Tannie]

It was a good episode but i turned it off half way through but glad we got an hour long episode as the football was on, on Thursday Night:angry: I'm Glad Ruby Finally got some truth and i also think that Jake snapped because he was sick and tired of having to babysit a child who thinks she knows everything and won't listein to anyone else.

[Mr Humphries]

Well she is completely on her jack jones now aint she !

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Well she is completely on her jack jones now aint she !

Yeah she is, which is what she deserves in my opinion

I read somewhere

Ruby doesnt even know Jake is dead

[Mr Humphries]

Maybe because its never found ? Which fuels my fire further ! :hmm: :hmm:

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Personally I am glad I missed Thurs and Fri's episode.. They always say it's going to be explosive and stuff and it never is!! What sort of endings are they?! Predictable and it's just a load of nonsense!! Now I regret that I am doing EastEmders as part of my media coursework :angry:

[Mr Humphries]

I am sad that you feel that way, because you must have really like Eastenders to choose it for your coursework. It find the episodes ok, but I totally agree we where all lead to believe that they where going to explosive !

[Bree]

I am really sad that jake has gone as i really liked him !!! But he has been
under used of late and when he was on screen he was running after ruby i do think he could of had a better exist tho i mean you didnt even see him die x

[Katy]

why did they have to kill him off, i assume thats what happened to Jake. I would have been much nicer if hed have walked of into the dark merky tube station or something. (was going to say sunset but i realised it was albert square after all) Its such a shame.

As for Ruby, just showed how much she couldnt act. there was hardly much emotion for someone who found her dads dead. Just a screwed up face. Bit pathetic if you ask me.

Highlight was Jake saying well done your really on your own now.

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Lastnight was the best ive seen Jake's character for a very long time, which is anothing thing about Eastenders, the day they leave they make the character really good and make you wish they wasnt leaving

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

I am sad that you feel that way, because you must have really like Eastenders to choose it for your coursework. It find the episodes ok, but I totally agree we where all lead to believe that they where going to explosive !
Yup, because we get to choose it out of Hollyoaks, Coronation street and EE.. We discussed it and found out Hollyoaks is for younger viewers and Coronation Street is mainly for older viewers but EE is both. So I thought I could write about it. I have to write about the main storyline and characters over the half term.. was really looking forward to it as well!!

I hope EE picks up.. especially for Christmas.. I mean if this is called explosive I am seriously dreading writing about the Christmas storyline (I now hope I won't have to do this..)

I think I will catch the omnibus for the sake of my coursework tomorrow though.. But I do like EE.. did since I was like 8 but it's just a dissapointing..

Sorry for going on guys x

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Sorry for going on guys x

Dont be sorry spicy hun, i think your right, i love Eastenders and no matter what that wont ever change and i wont ever stop watching but i think its having big issues at the moment and lastnight was the worst ive seen, ive never been bored watching Eastenders until lastnight, they should have gone all out to suprise us, do something different for once but they played it safe and i was able to predict what would happen before it happened which is why i was bored, i remember the episodes where they kept you guessing and changed their style to make it fun and have viewers on the endge of their seat but the episodes now its luckyif viewers are even sitting up watching it never mind sitting on the edge of their seat

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Aww thanks lol. The other thing is they DRAGGGGG on storylines way too much.. ok somethings can keep it long as it created tension but seriously you really don't have to bring it up again and again after 'finishing' it. Can't believe they wrote that and even showed it on the screen.. RUBBISH!

[Richie_lecturer]

I tuned into EastEnders in the second half of this week, and I'm afraid to say I was very disappointed. Found the episodes once again too dull and predictable for my liking, with Jake and Ruby wooden as ever, though the former was better than previous dismal performances. That prison guy who misheard Johnny, blimey what a stereotype he was. :rolleyes: I didn't buy Johnny's 'last request', nor the prison officer visiting Ruby as already mentioned.

As for the Denise/Patrick parentage stuff, how pathetic. I don't like the Foxes (or the Wicks for that matter - Pat magnificant being the exception), and the excellent Truemans are worth far me than this tedious storyline.

The only good things was the brief but welcome appearance of Queen Pat, and I don't actually mind the Sean bloke, in spite of this club/manipulation rubbish.


Overall, not good at all.



Coronation Street is mainly for older viewers
Oy! I may be getting on a bit, but I'm still some years off queuing up for ages every Thursday morning at the Post Office. :nono:

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Oy! I may be getting on a bit, but I'm still some years off queuing up for ages every Thursday morning at the Post Office. :nono:
That's what our class discussed and came out with.. + I did say mainly not all.. :)

[Chris_2k11]

Such a letdown last night. I was expecting some high drama, only nothing really happened till about the last 5 minutes!! Far too many scenes in the Trueman household if you ask me.

Best Episode of the week - Thursday.

[parkerman]

We discussed it and found out Hollyoaks is for younger viewers and Coronation Street is mainly for older viewers but EE is both. So I thought I could write about it. I have to write about the main storyline and characters over the half term.. was really looking forward to it as well!!

I've never seen Holyoaks, so I can't comment, but I think the thing Coronation Street has that Eastenders doesn't have is humour!

There is no-one like Blanche, Norris or Les and Cilla in Eastenders. That's what it needs...oh and some good storyines, good scripwriting and good acting as well.

I agree 100% with you comments, Richie, by the way.

[Richie_lecturer]

Thanks.

I'm not so sure EE needs the humour actually, apart from the odd one-liners here and there. It needs to focus on its core strengths: believeable drama e.g. baby Hassan, Trevor & Little Mo, Kathy's rape and many others - stuff that really tugs the heartstrings, rather than modern attempts we've had at this which seem convoluted, non-believeable, short-termist and with characters superceded by plot. That's where better scriptwriting and betetr acting then come into play. You need a base to push on a do good things. Get the basics right, and then one is in a position to push boundaries. From what I have seen of EastEnders since I stopped watching at the end of March, it has yet to achieve that.



That's what our class discussed and came out with.. + I did say mainly not all.. :)
Fair enough dear I wasn't disputing that. I just thought I'd tickle your belly a bit. :)

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

I agree with what you said above Ritchie (except the last line lol).. Wow I agree with you :p

+ Yup I know :D x

[Richie_lecturer]

Marvellous, I have fans! :cheer:

Fridays episode was absolute rubbish. Why did the mags say his voice was muffled and the cell mate couldn't understand him when he was alive a day later? Why don't they get some people that actually look the part to take Jake away, rather than some random people who looked like they were just walking down that alley for the fun of it.

[Layne]

Was the omnibus different to Fridays actual episode?! Is that it the last we see of Jake is him standing in front of some guy?!
Jees, now i know why i haven't been watching EE :rolleyes: :thumbsdow

[crazygirl]

why was that the last scene of jake?

[Siobhan]

why was that the last scene of jake?
those two guys were hitmen hired by Johnny Allen's dumb cellmate to kill of the wrong guy.. he misunderstood that johnny wanted Jake to kill Sean, not for someone to kill jake

[Abbie]

those two guys were hitmen hired by Johnny Allen's dumb cellmate to kill of the wrong guy.. he misunderstood that johnny wanted Jake to kill Sean, not for someone to kill jake Oh right, i knew they going to kill him but i didnt understand whay, thanks for clearing that up.

[Mr Humphries]

To be honest, I cant wait to forgot the whole of last week and start a fresh this week with a new look. Maybe something good and true to life will happen this week. :)

[crazygirl]

those two guys were hitmen hired by Johnny Allen's dumb cellmate to kill of the wrong guy.. he misunderstood that johnny wanted Jake to kill Sean, not for someone to kill jake i know all that but i thought we would hear a gun shot at least!!

[Mr Humphries]

The interesting thing will be if to see if Jake's body turns up this week ?

[Tannie]

Tonights episode i enjoyed. I think Ruby needs to get to grips and see what Sean's doing to her but she won't! His face When Ruby Said She Was Going To Sell The Club And Give All The Money To Charity:rotfl: i think Ruby's expecting to much off him did you see him when she was in tears he looked seriously bored!! Well anyway why can't pauline just get to grips that Rebecca is Sonia's Child and you can't keep a chil away from it's mother unless The dad got custody but Nartin never got custody did he? well i don't think he did!

[CrazyLea]

Jakes exit was very disapointing, I thought we'd at least see him die! No closure for me :p

Some parts of tonights was alright. Fail to remember which parts at the moment. I did actually laugh a tiny bit with Ruby crying..

[Jojo]

I actually caught Jake's exit and it was exactly like Paul Trueman's. No closure, no big explosive exit, nothing.

Very disappointing yet again.

[Chris_2k11]

I did actually laugh a tiny bit with Ruby crying..

lmao you evil sod :p :D

[JustJodi]

Lea shhhhhhhhhhh I laughed my butt off with ruby and sean,, Sean rolling eyes and Ruby hanging on to him for dear life,, she is such a lousy actress.. Wasn't Seans face priceless when she announced she was gonna donate all the money to charity,, now that was some good acting,, nowwwwwwwwwwww how much longer is Ruby gonna be on screen ?????????

Can some one tell me why Patrick hates Aubrey so much??? What exactly is the history between those two besides singing in a group ???:searchme:

[Siobhan]

Can some one tell me why Patrick hates Aubrey so much??? What exactly is the history between those two besides singing in a group ???:searchme:

I don't know but I am going to assume he tried it on with Audrey, Patrick's ex wife..

Sean's face summed up how I felt about Ruby.. she just didn't stop whining.. I wanted to slap her and tell her to shut up

[EE Rocks]

When are Eastenders going to give up on this Sonia/Martin/Pauline storyline, massive ee fan but it's getting tiresome:mad: ? Good ol' Pat, you,ve gotta love her. She is fantastic, lol at the basic instink video:rotfl: . Yolande/aubrey was good too.:)

[EE Rocks]

Jakes exit was very disapointing, I thought we'd at least see him die! No closure for me :p



They couldn't show it because it was before the watershed, yeah i would of loved to actually see it but it would,ve needed to be on at 9:00pm or else they'll be complaints. The exit itself was actually good, dying in a gangland murder just dissapointing we couldnt see it.

[parkerman]

Another great performance from Sean. I'm really warming to him. I hope he has a long stay in Eastenders.:thumbsup:

[Siobhan]

I had to laugh at him, looking at his watch and making faces :rotfl::rotfl: then he just snogged her to shut her up

[Mr Humphries]

I have to say after last night, I am now warming to sean alot, in fact I am going to have to say, because I can't contain myself any longer ! Sean is seriously fit and I love you ! Oh thank god I said it.

Now getting back to the topic, You could almost see Ruby and Sean laughing during that because it was so pathetic!

Loved The Whole Baking The Cake Drama ! Will be interesting to see Dot's effort, you just know that she is going to wipe the smile straight off Pauline's face :lol: :rotfl: :lol: :rotfl:

Yeah, sean sure is fit, and he has a nice body. Oooh yes that Cake drama was good, there is some more of it tonight and it does sound good. Pauline needs that smile wiped of her face.

edit: language

[parkerman]

Steady on there!:o You'll be wanting his babies next...:lol:

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Lmao same here!! :lol: I quite like him now.. oh god what else could the poor lad do :lol: I was L.O.L.. just too funny :rotfl:

The rest was a bit boring though.. how many times do we have to see Pauline doing some wicked witch stuff against Sonia.. seriously :rolleyes: I got the point.. Didn't really have to drag it on with the cakes. They are obviously going to do some fighting with it or something like it turns out Rebecca does like fairies :rolleyes: + All that time wasting with Tanya.. what was going on there?!

Woooh Yolande..:eek: Little bit of repeating thing going on there.. seeing as it already happened with Patrick and sort of 'saw it coming'.

[Kim]

He's the named guardian as Margaret rumbled the joint one before she died. So Martin could keep Rebecca away from Sonia if he wanted to, but doesn't.

[crazygirl]

it was vey bad acting from ruby and sean!!

[parkerman]

Ruby was dreadful as always, but Sean was brilliant.

[Mr Humphries]

it was vey bad acting from ruby and sean!!

Well said honey, it was very bad acting from them both, but I found it funny, but that does not excuse such behaviour ! Ruby and Sean you are :banned:

[Kim]

Pauline's such a drama queen. When she was talking to Betty saying that they'd better go and get something over with I thought that Betty needed to be put to sleep!

[Katy]

Seans face was an absolute picture, Ruby was like and when we were kids and he would sort of tut. It was hilarious. She is so bad its unbelievable. I found the whole episde very funny indeed.

[crazygirl]

yolande and aubrey kissing.....please...:sick: :sick: :sick:

[Mr Humphries]

I knew the Cake was going to cause trouble and I was right ! Betty ate it :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: what else is Pauline going to do next ! :hmm:

[crazygirl]

poor sonia, all this because she wanted to try something different in life :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

[Cupcake]

Ew so Yolande and Aubrey actually did...it? O_O EWW.

[Kim]

yolande and aubrey kissing.....please...:sick: :sick: :sick:

They weren't kissing today were they? If they were I'll be glad I was doing my homework and only glancing up at the TV! Aubrey is driving me madder by the second. He's just such a creep! I'll feel sorry for Denise if he's her Dad. The opening sequence today was just silly, they could have made it much better. No speech and no sound whilst she was going up the stairs, there was me thinking that affairs in soapland were supposed to be dramatic.

[Chris_2k11]

Pauline is such an old witch, I can't stand the way she's being to Sonia. I mean i'm not exactly a massive Sonia fan but the poor girl doesn't deserve this. Roll on chrimbo when this old bag finally gets what's coming to her! :angry:

[parkerman]

When Yolande went up to bed why was she already wearing her nightie?

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

I dont like Shaun and probably never will but it was funny when he was "comforting" Ruby he so did not want to be there

This week's eps have been rubbish again, i saw UKGold episode this morning compare that with the toffee they are producing now and you realise just how bad it is at the moment

[crazygirl]

When Yolande went up to bed why was she already wearing her nightie? it was one of those underskirts!!

[LostVoodoo]

here here! that just proved that she doesn't actually care about rebecca's welfare, its just all about upsetting sonia.

[Dutchgirl]

here here! that just proved that she doesn't actually care about rebecca's welfare, its just all about upsetting sonia.
Dot was quiet upset with Pauline over the cake incident, she was really disappointed. I'm not sure if Pauline intended this. The look on her face, I couldn't tell. But Pauline is up for anything in causing Sonia harm.

[Siobhan]

Pauline knew what she was doing.. there is no way a little dog like that, who never did it before, could jump up on a table and eat the cake and did you see how far it was away from the counter?? Pauline is just evil and i am glad that Sonia went and got the other cake

I am not convinced more that nothing happen with Aubrey and Yolande... he is making it up, you can tell by his face.. And poor Billy, he was right, if there was nothing wrong with Petal, there would have been load coming and going in the house and buy presents for the child

[Dutchgirl]

And poor Billy, he was right, if there was nothing wrong with Petal, there would have been load coming and going in the house and buy presents for the child

Was it the same healthcare worker as the first time? :thumbsdow This one was rather rude as well, still can't beleive that they are not offered special care from a social worker. This would not happen in The Netherlands, we've got specially trained staff to deal with special needs infants.

[Siobhan]

Was it the same healthcare worker as the first time? :thumbsdow This one was rather rude as well, still can't beleive that they are not offered special care from a social worker.

Yeah I think it is.. I am not sure how it works in UK but in Ireland you only have the healthcare worker that is assigned to your area and it is tough luck if you don't get on

[Jojo]

Yeah I think it is.. I am not sure how it works in UK but in Ireland you only have the healthcare worker that is assigned to your area and it is tough luck if you don't get on I know when I didn't get on with my Health Visitor, I was able to change as I refused to have her dealing with my sons care.

[Dutchgirl]

I know when I didn't get on with my Health Visitor, I was able to change as I refused to have her dealing with my sons care.
Well good it should be like that. But others who do not speak up have to suffer I suppose.

[parkerman]

I think the health visitor storyline is totally unrealistic. Firstly you would be given more specialist support and secondly I think it very unlikely in any case that a health visitor would be so unsympathetic.

[crazygirl]

the health visitors have been like cardboard cut outs :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Mr Humphries]

I think the health visitor storyline is totally unrealistic. Firstly you would be given more specialist support and secondly I think it very unlikely in any case that a health visitor would be so unsympathetic.

You would be very surprised I can tell you, I know someone with a Downs Kid, and they was just left too it and the health visitor was old school and gave no advice at all! It's a shame they have not made this storyline more true to life and shown how shocking the system is ! :angry:

[EE Rocks]

Yes, it is quite unrealistic isnt it? LOL at Mo, she is just great. Pauline is soo evil dropping the cake.

[Mr Humphries]

The whole cake storyline was so bad and awful, but it was actually so funny, Pauline looked like she was sucking a lemon ! :rotfl:

[crazygirl]

The whole cake storyline was so bad and awful, but it was actually so funny, Pauline looked like she was sucking a lemon ! :rotfl: you evil person!! dot put her heart into making that cake

[Mr Humphries]

:rotfl:
you evil person!! dot put her heart into making that cake

Well least Dot made that cake, quicker than you made that shepherd's pie :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

The Cake Storyline was good, and I reckon we might have more things like this to come from Pauline and Sonia !

[Richie_lecturer]

you evil person!! dot put her heart into making that cake
So Dot's own heart has been eaten, on her request?

I hope she had an instant bypass, otherwise Dot is gone. :(

[Richie_lecturer]

Pauline looked like she was sucking a lemon ! :rotfl:
Probably got it from her fruitbowl.

[crazygirl]

lets hope she dosnt bake another cake :rotfl: :rotfl:

[Richie_lecturer]

Pauline is soo evil dropping the cake.
I've dropped a cake before, does that make me evil? :confused: :eek:
