Surely they won't move in to Max's not when a few weeks beforehand there wasn't enough room for Bradley by himself. I would have thought she would move in to the Brannings but I can't see Dot being too happy about it.
I would expect them to move into the Brannings too. There will be more room there! I bet in Max's they can bearly move!! In Mondays episode it looked like Bradley was back in the Brannings anyway.:confused:
I think Jim would be ok with Dot might be like " Oooh I say!!" every time Stacey says flamin'! :lol:

Your welcome EE Rocks! :thumbsup: I agree too, its nice what they said about Stacey and Bradley.

Pinkbanana

Your welcome my Deano obsessed buddy!:lol:

You can really go off some folk, rather quickly... bradley (Deanooo) fan! lol

I think, Max should cough up and help them get a little pad of their own. Cant see it working out if Bradders and Stace did move into Max's, as the good folk on here have said, it would be too crowded!

Also if Bradders has now got his promotion then maybe he could afford to pay rent on somewhere (a cardboard box outside the minutemart perhaps?). lol

I kinda think Stacey could be manipulated by Sean! I don't really know why I just do. :searchme:

Well she's already being manipulated by him. He lied to her about the badge, and now she's got this perception of him that is false. Plus she obviously cares about him deeply, so I doubt Bradley would come before her own brother. Even though Sean abandoned her, Stacey's got a sense of loyalty. Her mum comes first in everything, and I reckon Sean will be added to that list now.

Of course her mum might convince Stacey that Sean can't be trusted, and that she shouldn't risk her relationship with Bradley for him. Possibly?!

littlemo

26-08-2006, 22:18

I think Max might be the one that suggests Stacey moving in. I doubt Bradley would ask her without his say so.

Pinkbanana

26-08-2006, 22:30

I dont get how Bradders ends up living at Max's?

He had moved back into the Senior Brannings abode, when demented mother Branning appeared, and he was there when Stace called around after she had returned from her hols!

Soooo does he have another fall out with Jim, and gets kicked out again? Its not ideal moving into a packed house otherwise, I would have thought.

Rather confused (and it doesnt take much!) lol

littlemo

26-08-2006, 22:32

Yeah, I am too. Not long now till Bradley comes back! yah! :clap:

Exciting!

Imagine Stacey announced on Christmas Day that she didn't have an abortion after all and handed him the money back! lol. That would be a classic.

Getting a bit carried away I think. Still might be an idea for my script.

Actually i could imagine that happening!! You know how EE like something dramatic at Christmas, so this would be it!! It would be wicked.

littlemo

26-08-2006, 23:11

Actually i could imagine that happening!! You know how EE like something dramatic at Christmas, so this would be it!! It would be wicked.

It would be a great way of bringing back 'manipulative' Stacey! lol. But I think looking at the spoilers Stacey's way too upset to be fooling anyone. Plus she tells Ruby and Sean she went ahead with it. Of course that could be part of her game plan.

I don't think she'd do that to somebody she loved though.

bradley_fan

26-08-2006, 23:37

Can't wait till Monday! I can just see the scene now... "I'm pregnant!!" duff duff duff! I hope Stacey doesn't act herself too much at Brads bday bash! I always feel embarrasst for him when she does stuff like that! (e.g when he asked her to come round for tea ages ago before they were really going out. She wouldn't eat coz she said she was on a diet or something:rolleyes: )
Raaaggghhhh I'm borred! :wall:

littlemo

26-08-2006, 23:57

Yeah I know what you mean. She acts up instead of saying what's on her mind. It can get a bit annoying sometimes! And you can tell Bradley gets frustrated by it.

Your not the only one. I am bored as hell here.:wall: I can't wait till Monday too, but i don't think she'll say "I'm pregnant" at the end:cheer: .

So you think we'll see them talk a bit about the pregnancy on Monday's episode?!

You know when they go to the abortion clinic, will Bradley wait outside in the waiting room when Stacey goes in?! I'm just thinking about whether Stacey could get away with not having it done, if she was trying to deceive him.

And by the way i'm bored too! lol.

I'm probably talking a load of bull.

littlemo

27-08-2006, 00:56

Anyway what can we talk about?! lol.

Can you imagine what Christmas day is going to be like if Stacey and Bradley are still a couple?! lol.

Mo, Charlie, Tanya, Max, Sean, Stacey, Bradley, possibly Jean. It's going to be a mad house. They are bound to have it together. Stacey and Bradley won't want to leave each other on Christmas day, and both sets of families will want them. I'm sure they'll be fights galore! lol.

EE Rocks

27-08-2006, 01:06

lol not really much to talk about is there?:p I can't wait till christmas- it will be a mad house and i like that. That slater house has been to quiet for to long. It's going to be Bradley's first christmas in albert sqaure!!:angel: I think they'll still be a couple- wonder what will happen though.

Awww Stacey and Bradley at Christmas!! :wub: It would be a good scene all them sitting round the table (don't forget Dot and Jim!) although it would be better if Stacey had a big baby in her belly but nevermind! lol.
I think Bradley probably does go in with her. Just coz shes scared so he might go in to try and keep her calm or something....might not though! We can dream can't we Littlemo! :lol:

Yeah. And i've been thinking about my long shot theory, and it seems pretty impossible. If she did announce it at Christmas, she'd be about 4 or even 5 months pregnant. It's bound to show.

Would Bradley actually be allowed in the room while the abortion is taking place. It's an operation isn't it?! I'm not sure. But it doesn't seem like there's anywhere she could escape, even if he waited in the waiting room, unless she went through the bathroom window or something! lol.

Do you know how long you have to stay in the clinic for?! just out of curiosity.

littlemo

27-08-2006, 01:59

Do you think we'll have many scenes with them in the clinic? I hope so.

Do you remember the stuff with Billy and Little Mo, when they sat there for ages on the steps outside debating whether she should go through with it or not. I hope it's going to be like that for Stacey and Bradley.

They should stretch the emotional scenes out. I hope to see every episode with Bradley and Stacey dominating them all next week.

Do you know how long you have to stay in the clinic for?! just out of curiosity. Bradley wouldn't be allowed in the room whilst the termination was actually being done as its an operation under a general anasthetic (sp?) at that early stage. He would have to wait outside. As long as Stacey was being discharged into someones care and didn't have any reactions to the anasthetic, she would leave the hospital/clinic the same day.

There is some in the Clinic. I saw it in Inside soap.

Pinkbanana

27-08-2006, 15:34

Yeah, apparently they filmed in a real clinic, as Charlie (Bradders) said that he felt like they had really done it (aborted the bambino) when they came out!! So the acting should be very realistic this week, I imagine!!!

Oh hopefully there wont be too many scenes in the abortion clinic, as that would be very depressing, and rather uncomfortable viewing (I personally think)...

EE Rocks

27-08-2006, 16:55

Yeah i heard they filmed in a real clinic, it's going to be soo depressing next week.

littlemo

27-08-2006, 20:03

I'm upset already! :crying:

There's going to be nothing but trauma ahead for Stacey isn't there. What with Ruby going soon, her many conversations with Jean looming (i've heard in October she comes into it). Her many conversations with Bradley, it's going to be awful.

But fantastic for us! Love Stacey! Hope to see her a lot in the coming months.

EE Rocks

27-08-2006, 20:18

Yeah, love Stace! I didn't know Jean was coming back. I hope it's better than her appearance this year, i thought it was a bit of a let-down. Hopefully she'll stay for christmas. Poor Stacey though, getting rid of baby branning, Best mate leaving soon......whatever next?

I don't like to go on too much about the future, cause we haven't even seen this weeks yet, but I was thinking;

Do you reckon Stacey will take a long time before she can sleep with Bradley again? I can see her insisting to go on the pill when she does.

Sadly feel he's getting a typical EE personality transplant! Cant believe they would portray a popular character in such away too! If he is a git this week, I wonder if there will be a bit of a public backlash against the character?!:hmm:

I for one have gone off young Bradders already a bit!!!:(

Also hear Sean (oh lovely Sean:wub: ) saying about how you dont really know someone until the bullets start flying!!! Well I guess thats a huge clue that Bradders isnt going to handle it at all well tomorrow!:angry:

PR1811

28-08-2006, 21:03

I think he is basically angry that she didn't tell him and that everyone seems to know except him. He yells out to the square "is there anyone who doesn't know?!" Stacey is crying and says "Why are you being like this?" and he says "'cos I don't like being lied to!" and she says "I'm not lying!" he then asks why she didn't tell him sooner and she says she was scared of what it would mean for them.

I can't bring myself to watch it anymore. Bradley what are you doing! :crying:

I reckon this could be Enders shooting themselves in the foot....even if they bounce back from this, the ol' Brad and Stace relationship will never be the same or truly ever recover from it. Especially if Stace wanted the bambino....she'll be on a guilt trip for life, and end up resenting him.

Also why, oh why...do they have to change the sweet and loveable Bradders (a breath of fresh air in soapland) into some heartless ****?! :angry:

Oh I am hating this storyline, and its only just begun, got the rest of the week to get through! lol

Maybe it will come out in the next few weeks that Sean is a true bunny (rat) boiler! lol I dont care if he has a collection of rabbits' feet, Im loving him anyway :wub:

I think he should practice his punching technique on Deanooo first, before he has a go at Bradders!!! lol

I agree with Bradley that they aren't ready for a child, after all they have only been properly together a couple of months and they are both pretty young. What worries me is how Bradley goes about it :(

He should be in fear for his life when Sean finds out she had an abortion and not a miscarriage.

Exactly, its how he goes about it!!! If its all about him and his feelings then it just plain wrong, not to mention out of character for him to be such a ruthless and heartless git!

Cor blimey, you cant half go off some folk quickly! Bradders has gone down sooo much in my estimation!!!! Especially when he kicks off in the square, then deserts her....to think about it! :angry:

[

bradleys a proper idiot going around the abortion route ill never forgive him for it if it where me[/QUOTE]

i have to agree with you there, i mean if the guy whoi got me pregnant/ up the duff made me choose between the baby and him that would make me hate him just for saying that to me because that should be a joint decision in my opinion, but looks like bradley cant wait to drag her to the abortion clinic.

weird though i never saw stacy as the type of girl who whould let a guy tell her what to do in a situation like this, im seeing bradders in a whole new light and i hope the whole story comes out with bradley as the bad guy, because im not being funny but he was there when the baby was conceived does he think being there when its aborted makes up for his actions.

i have been in that position before where the guy told me him or the baby i told him where to go but ended up losing it anyway but at least i have no regrets

Pinkbanana

28-08-2006, 23:35

I agree that its weird that a strong character like Stace should go along with the abortion business, especially if she is against doing it, just to keep Bradders happy, and stop her losing him!!! When did she become sooo dependent on a chap?!:hmm:

Yep, well they have by all accounts done it to Bradders too (character personality transplant)!

We have been saying on here (this thread) for yonks that Stace has gone too soft! So the only saving grace of this whole dire abortion storyline, for me, is if she gets her edge back! :)

*-Rooney-*

28-08-2006, 23:53

well they need to do something with the storyline after the abortion because if they dont it is a waste of a storyline which could have been good, and the the waste of a good generous character due to him turning bad

bradley_fan

29-08-2006, 01:46

Oooooh we are hating Bradders at the minute arn't we?! :lol: Well I am too I suppose but I don't think this "heartless git"(lol) infection will last. I can see him in a few months time, stop talking about work (hopefully) and running around after Stacey like he always has done! It'll be his lil' way of begging for forgiveness! I think the writers have just changed his personality for this particular storyline and then they will bring him back to the character we all know and love!:wub: Because I don't think they can be that stupid ( :confused: ) to change a really popular character into another hated idiot which will probably end up sacked!

Just to throw a spanner in the works though - but why does everyone say that its Bradley that got Stacey pregnant....??

Isn't it a case of it takes two to tango ??

totally agree and as they both said last night they are to young for this and it will change their lives.. I don't think Bradley is been selfish in what he is saying/doing..

I don't blame Bradley for not wanting the baby, and for being worried about what it means for his future. I blame him for riding over Stacey's feelings, and pressuring her into an abortion, which is what it sounds like he does, and which is both selfish and out of character for him.

But Stacey could say no.

Its a hard decision to make for anyone to make, I know, but at the end of the day, its Staceys decision, not Bradleys. Ok so she might want to keep him happy and go through with the termination, but that is the wrong reason for doing it. She needs to sit down with Mo and Charlie and go through her options instead of trying to deal with it on her own. Wouldn't it be far worse, for Bradley to say, yes go through with the pregnancy, I'll always be there for you and the child, and then a couple of months later the relationship falter and they break up, and then Bradley does exactly what Max did. They have only been together a few months and are still both very young. Who knows where their relationship is headed.

Yeah I agree. Just because Bradley doesn't want a baby at this moment in time, I don't think any less of him. He's got his opinion, Stacey's got hers.

But the thing is if Bradley's got an opposite point of view to her, and he feels like he's being railroaded into something he doesn't want to do. He'd probably resent her for it. She loves him, it could be very hurtful.

I don't think anybody would want to be a single mother at 17. You should be sure that you've got a lot of support around you. Especially from the people that matter, like Bradley. Exactly Littlemo - the main thing will be that Bradley supports her after what happens too and helps her through it, not just lets her get on with things, as long as she lets him. Being a single parent at 17 is not easy - believe me. Its hard enough and tiring enough at any age, let alone 17.

My opinion of him has depreciated a little. He tells Stacey that HE is too young to have a baby, but she's younger and all he seems to be bothered about is himself. Although it was apparent that Stacey wasn't happy about it at first, she doesn't really want the abortion, as stated by The Tv Mag.

Yup..both of them are at fault !!!! She should have insisted he had some sort of protection,, and he should have made sure he had them . or she should have had some on hand,, or for cryin out loud go on the pill if they were gonna become SEXUALLY Active,,

Well it seems like they used condoms all the time.

I remember when they were going to have sex, Stacey said she'd get them, but Bradley insisted he did, because he thought it would be more 'gentlemenly' lol.

I reckon sooner or later she would have gone on the pill, but they haven't been sleeping together that long. And I suppose it's more of a longterm solution isn't it?!

I know where Bradley is coming from when he says he wouldn't want the baby..he's got a career ahead of him and a future ahead of him..he's too young to become a father and Stacey is too young to become a mother. Bradley shouldn't pressurise Stacey into having an abortion though, it's up to her if she wants to keep the baby.

Bradley was (as my mam said) a little **** at the start! I felt like crying when Stacey was saying "please don't just leave me here!" :crying: But further in it was clear he was just paniced and confused about the whole thing.
Max was excellent I thought! He really tried his best to help them both! :thumbsup:
The preview looks sad! Stacey looks like she's ready to leg it!

BlackKat

29-08-2006, 20:36

I hope they write Bradley right on Thursday, and he doesn't just ignore her like he seemed to tonight. She said she thought he was right, but quite frankly even Deano could have seen she wasn't sure. And while she shouldn't say yes to an abortion unless she means it, he should be able to see if she doesn't mean it and back off.

Plus I couldn't believe he just left her in the Square, after she begged him not to. Jesus, I know he was panicking and wanted to think, but at least reassure her. "I'll come and get you." What is she, a dog?

Also after tonights episode I have a weird urge to start a Stacey/Max thread. :rotfl: Very worrying. :p

Could you believe the way Bradley was reacting at the beginning?! Oh my gosh! That smile that he does, when he's really angry. It's like some sort of horror film! lol. It's like Jekyl and Hyde!

Bradley saying that Sean and Stacey were plotting against him, and laughing behind his back, what was he on?! seriously. Why would you laugh about something like that?!

Bradley overeacted about Sean, what exactly has he done to him?! All brothers (on soaps anyway) suss out their sisters boyfriends. Really he should get used to it! I hope they don't get into a fight everytime Sean says something to him.

I thought that comment about Sean with a gun transporting him down the aisle was funny! I could just imagine that! lol.

A different turn for Bradley, but I actually enjoyed his dark side! More drama!

littlemo

30-08-2006, 01:07

Oh my gosh! I just saw that clip for Thursday, wow!

Bradley's a very scared boy, isn't he?! If Stacey is that emphatic about keeping it she should just get out of there. What the hell is she doing going through with it?! I want to scream at her! :)

Don't let Bradley talk you into it Stacey, for crying out loud!

He was very mean. I don't know where that came from. It's not like Stacey did much to deserve his anger. He jumped to a lot of false conclusions.

I'm thinking that might have been the way Max reacted to finding out about Bradley all those years ago.

Not sure about the personality transplant thing. I reckon they are building up sides to his character. Like when Stacey got with Bradley they built on her soft side. They are building on Bradley's hard side, being with Stacey, and being influenced by Max.

Yeah I reckon Mo and Charlie would provide her with support. But I reckon she knows she's got people there. She's got Ruby and Sean at least. But I really wish Sean would find out about the abortion and go and talk to her, or Ruby. Anyone?!

littlemo

30-08-2006, 01:49

In the clip, Stacey says she wants to leave, and Bradley says but you've signed the forms. For heavensake Bradley!

I hope he listens to her, and sits down and talks with her before she goes in.

Who cares about the bloody forms?! Nobody can make you do it can they?! I'd like to see somebody try to make her! lol. I hope we see her getting stroppy and threaten one of the nurses! lol.

littlemo

30-08-2006, 01:54

I just think Bradley is being way too organised about this. He needs for one minute to think with his heart instead of his head.

Like Stacey was saying about how her head is telling her one thing, and her heart another. It doesn't seem like Bradley is allowing himself to explore his emotions.

I'm jabbering now! lol.

But I don't think Bradley loves Stacey the way she loves him. No way! He won't even say the words to her. He said that he loved her to Max, but it's not enough. He needs to say it to her.

I reckon he'll probably find out how much he feels for her when she dumps him. At some time in the future.

EE Rocks

PR1811

30-08-2006, 10:22

I think Bradley wants to get it done quick so that there is no time for either of them to change their mind. I think part of him would want to try and be different to his dad but he's scared he isn't strong enough and the 'easy' way out is for Stacey to have an abortion and everything go back to normal, which obviously it won't. I'd like to think they both have a better discussion at the clinic. I think once it's done Stacey will be gutted for weeks and it will take a lot of effort from Bradley to get her back to normal. That's of course if Bradley doesn't find himself hanging upside down from a rafter if/when Sean finds out.

bradley_fan

30-08-2006, 10:23

If I was Stacey I'd say I've had two weeks to get used to the idea and get over the shock, you need longer to think about it before we skip into the abortion clinic!
Littlemo, I don't think Bradley will ever say he loves her untill he really has to like you said, she dumps him or something. Or maybe when he tries to get her to move in with him he says it then :searchme: If I was her I wouldn't move untill he said it!! :lol:

littlemo

30-08-2006, 11:39

Anyone else see anything developing between Stacey and Max?! I know he's not trying to get it on with his son's pregnant girlfriend, but I could see a future storyline for them.

It seems like Max is going to be very nice to her throughout this whole thing. And Stacey apparently moves in with them.

I could see that Stacey might be upset one night after a row with Bradley, Max tries to calm her down and they end up in a clinch. What do you reckon?!

EE Rocks

30-08-2006, 11:44

Yeah, the developing between Stacey and Max was good, they are very good to togther. I wasn't expecting Max to be nice to her, dunno why but she didn't like him before did she?.

She didn't like him before because Bradley didn't like him. I think she's trying to make the effort now.

They did have a very good moment between them. Stacey can really stick up for herself. Even with guys like Max and Sean. Well especially with men like Max and Sean.

Maybe she needs to find someone she can meet her match with?! lol.

Only temporarily though, I'm not sure I would want her splitting up with Bradley permanently.

30-08-2006, 12:05

I think Stacey was tempting fate though when she was talking about being with Bradley forever. And how there was nobody else for him out there. Great way to stop him feeling trapped! lol.

I think she could be wrong actually. There's bound to be other women out there who want to be with him, and could actually end up being better.

He seems to be worried he'll end up like his dad. Could he get a wandering eye too?!

God, why doesn't she just say to Bradley, I need more time. Or 'I want to keep it'. He'd have to go along with what she wants.

If she kept it he'd come to terms with it in time.

She should just go along with what she wants, not be influenced.

EE Rocks

30-08-2006, 12:39

Exactly. That "Tough" Stacey Slater wouldn't of been like that, I don't think. She'd stood up to him and said I want the baby. When Stacey cries, all i remember is that tough girl that hardly cried, and i really MISS THAT.:crying: :crying: As much as it pains me to say this, i have to agree with Lacey that Bradley has made stacey softer. Before he arrived she was a naughty little madam, causing trouble and I liked that and it was entertaining.:crying:

I can't believe the way Bradley reacted last night, he said that Stacey lied to him but she's only just found out herself, she didn't know for sure while on holiday and she only seen him 5 minutes when she got back, not really a chance to tell him so i don't understand why Bradley was so angry about that. It was better than Stacey telling him 3 months down the line!

Bradley is definetly being the dominant one in this situation (i said this in the current ep discussion) It's obvious that she will go along with what he says because she will be afraid that she will lose him if she makes a decision of her own to keep the baby. Deep down, i think Stacey wants to keep the baby but she's just trying to make Bradley happy by having the abortion, Bradley is definetly rushing into things, they haven't talked to each other properly..and i was totally shocked when he said to Stacey "have the abortion tomorrow!" I was really shocked and it looks like Stacey will agree with it, she needs to make her own mind up and not go along with what Bradley says.

littlemo

30-08-2006, 17:55

Yeah. If Stacey goes along with what Bradley wants and has the abortion, I think she will feel more angry at herself than Bradley. It was her choice to make. She could have walked out. I think she'll feel guilt. That's what it sounds like from the spoilers.

I would love it if Stacey turned round to Sean after she'd been to the clinic and confessed she hadn't gone through with it! That would be good.

But unfortunately it seems like we are doomed to upset and tragedy.

Yeah, it would! The trouble is though the press are just too good at finding out stuff.

The only thing I remember being a bit of a surprise was the Sharon pregnancy thing. For ages we were told they were adopting, and then she announced it on Christmas day, and I only half knew it was a possiblity.

And I was a member of this board at the time.

It would be better if this storyline with Bradley and Stacey was more like that. More surprises.

littlemo

30-08-2006, 21:47

I suppose Sharon's pregnancy was overshadowed by Dennis's death though. Maybe the press weren't looking for it.

Jojo

30-08-2006, 21:54

I don't think Stacey wants the baby but I don't think she doesn't want it either.. Bradley's reaction is normal.. when I told my boyfriend (I was only with him 3 months) that I was pregnant he said "is it mine?" but not in the way that it sounds...

Think about it, Stacey is 17, she works on a stall and has no "real" family. Bradley is just beginning to find himself too.. remember he was under his mothers influence all the time and has had nothing but bad experience grown up without his dad. He is scared and is reacting quickly plus he doesn't want to be like his dad and walk out on his child because it is too much for him. But he is right, if they leave it to long it might be too late to change their minds and Stacey herself did say she didn't want to be a single mum..

I don't think she is desperate to cling on to Bradley.. they are both exactly what each other needs.. they compliment each other but I can see this coming back to bite them both in the ass, it will be the cause of a breakup I reckon :cheer: Yay - talking lots of sense there Siobhan.

How many people, find out they are pregnant at 17, 3 or 4 months or so into a relationship and jump up and down for joy at the fact they are expecting?? Having a baby puts a huge emotional strain on a family, there are a huge number of families who split up when they have had their first child, because of the massive emotional changes and other strains that take place. Having a child can of course bring couples closer together, but when you have only been together for that length of time, you are still getting to know each other - who's to say that 6 months down the line, you move in with each other, and discover that the way he leaves the toothbrush lying on the sink, or his constant leaving the toilet seat up, really grates you and you don't want to be with him anymore (not just because of this, but they are examples). You would end up a single parent which neither of you wanted in the first place. Get to know each other properly first, then have the family. It doesn't always work like that (it didn't with me), but having a baby isn't as easy and cute and wonderful as people seem to be making out here. Its rewarding and the best feeling in the world, when its right, but its the hardest thing emotionally and the early times are the most tiring (and sometimes depressing) you can imagine.

littlemo

30-08-2006, 22:02

Yes you make some good points! Maybe it is the best for Bradley and Stacey.

I just don't like that Stacey is upset about Bradley's opinion, but goes ahead with his ideas anyway. I want her to show Sean that she doesn't get pushed around by anyone, and that she can stand on her own two feet.

I don't mean that she should be a single mum, just that she should make her feelings known. Bradley wouldn't leave her if she had the baby. He might say it, but I don't think he could.

But it's fine the way it's working out. Just as long as Stacey comes to the conclusion that it was for the best, and doesn't resent Bradley for it, cause that would be really upsetting.

Seriously demented! lol.

He sounded like Dennis at one point.

I'm glad i've got it on tape.

Yeah! I think so.

And there was all that stuff in the magazines a while back wasn't there?! about his dark side or whatever. I didn't actually read it, but i've heard.

There is so much depth to his character.

It's strange how with Stacey, the way she is shows that she's had a hard childhood. With Bradley it doesn't. He seems like a very regular kind of a guy. He has the odd moment where he feels a bit sad, but other than that he seems very well adjusted.

Or he did do, before his dad came back.

It's only now and again you see the anger coming out. Maybe he'll start turning violent?!

DaVeyWaVey

30-08-2006, 22:18

I think it would be good if Bradley did let his anger out sometime, maybe hit Stacey but not mean too, just a one off so we know that sometimes his anger can get the better of him.

I think it would be good if Bradley did let his anger out sometime, maybe hit Stacey but not mean too, just a one off so we know that sometimes his anger can get the better of him.

Yeah that would be great!

Imagine the reaction on Sean's face! Mind you Stacey would probably give as good as she gets and all.

Although it could ruin his character. Remember before they slept together, he was talking about accidentally hitting a girl in eye, and they were laughing about it. Stacey asked whether he did it on purpose, and it seemed so absurd at the time. We were like there's no way Bradley would do a thing like that. And he said he wouldn't.

But you do start to wonder when Bradley reacts like last night don't you?! Although there wasn't a moment that I thought he was going to hit her or anything. It never crossed my mind at the time.

No i just thought it would be something good to cover, like Bradley letting his anger out and hitting Stacey...he did have a bit of an evil look in last night's episode so there may be a possibility that he hits her accidently sometime in the future. I would hate to see it happen but it could be some good acting and great scenes acted out by Lacey and Charlie.

littlemo

30-08-2006, 22:31

Ermm, can i get this straight - you both think it would be great to see Bradley hit Stacey?!?!

Just for storyline and dramatic purposes. Obviously I don't believe in men hitting women!

I just see a bit of a dark side in Bradley, and I was just flirting with the possiblity that he could turn violent. But it's hypothetical, because I doubt they'll go that far.

littlemo

30-08-2006, 22:32

I'm worried Stacy's going to turn into a doormat. I don't like the new direction.

Jojo

30-08-2006, 22:35

Ok - but personally, I'd rather see it stay hypothetical and really hope EE don't go down that route with him - mind you with all the character transplants and assassinations they tend to do, nothing would surprise me with EE anymore. I think EE need to be very careful with Lacey and Charlie - both of them are going to head for a burnout if the bosses aren't careful, just like Michelle Ryan and lots before her had. Over exposure isn't such a great thing sometimes and I hope they take them both away from the forefront of EE for a bit soon.

Yeah exactly! I think it's about growth rather than personality transplants. Stacey and Bradley both had those sides to them when they arrived. Stacey had a soft side, and Bradley had a dark side. And them being a couple has brought it out of them.

I think Max has had a lot to do with Bradley's anger though. I think while he was away Bradley managed to cope with it, and when he came back it completely knocked him for six. Max has a lot to answer for.

But I do like Max, he's nice.

Just seen the picture and your right he looks disinterested and bored whilst poor Stacey looks absolutely petrified

I liked Bradley before this I really did but I can't condone his actions towards Stacey no matter how scared or confused you are you do not treat the woman you say you love like that and as for listening to her did he actually hear anyhting she said on tuesday night about wanting the baby before saying he wanted an abortion, it was like he switched off to what she wanted and it was all about him. if he knew his girlfriend at all he would know she wanted the baby and he would know she did not want an abortion but it just goes to show even the nice ones aren't that nice

Yeah. I hate to want to say it, but I think your right. I still do love Bradley though just to be clear! lol.

I know! She was very full of herself! lol.

I'm sure there are a lot of girls out there better for him than her. But it just depends on what your looking for really doesn't it?! If he loves her then she should be the only one he wants. And he said as much (to Stacey anyway).

And what does better mean?! classier?, more ambition? money?. I reckon if they do split up, he'll get bored of those women. He'll be clambering back to Stacey in a heartbeat! lol.

It might be o.k to settle down with one of those women, but at the moment I think he's looking for fun. Mind you Stacey's probably not going to be much fun for a long time!

I think by Stacey saying there was no one better than her she meant they just gel so well and no other person is right for either of them....either that or she's developing a big head!:lol:

I feel a bit sorry for Stacey. She is stuck working as some stall holder, and there he is as fancy bank manager. Sometimes it seems he cares more about work and friends than her.:angry:

Well I think she's a bit big headed as well! lol. :rotfl:

I can see a Sharon/Dennis relationship building here. They split up, somebody goes off with somebody else, there's immense jealousy, and then somebody ruins the others relationship, and they find themselves back in one anothers arms.

I could imagine Stacey trying to scrutinise Bradley and some 'posh tarts' date. That would be so funny! lol.

Yeah but it's not like Stacey couldn't do something with her life if she wanted to. She could go and do a course. Maybe she could follow in Bianca's steps and become a fashion designer or something.

I mean she moved to Manchester! lol.

(it reminds me of that Alistair Mcgowan sketch, 'no one comes back from Manchester'! lol.)

It seems like her family expect her to stay on the stall though, doesn't it?! Kat gave it to her, and it's sort of a family tradition?!

But I think Bradley should make more time for her. And try and take her out a lot. Spoil her a bit!

But maybe one of her old friends could come back, somebody who was nice to her. Her friends now are a more classier bunch, Ruby and Bradley. Maybe she should start expanding her social circle.

She should have a friend she can have a laugh with.

There's really a lot to say with Bradley. You could go on for hours. I'm sure Stacey could come up with some good comments! lol.

littlemo

31-08-2006, 00:52

What I think could be good is if one of Stacey's old boyfriends arrives. Maybe somebody very cute and hot! Somebody she just had a couple of sessions with, nothing serious. Perhaps an old mate of Sean's. And he should still be very interested in her.

And then Stacey could wind Bradley up, and make him sick with jealousy! Maybe while they are separated.

Of course that was done with Jake, but this time Bradley will know that things have happened between this guy and Stacey.

I mean, did you see the look on Bradley's face when he first saw Sean?! I think his immediate reaction was who the hell is this guy?! and what's he doing with my girlfriend?!

It would be a picture!

littlemo

31-08-2006, 01:04

O.k I am babbling a bit. I'm a bit bored! lol.

I reckon Bradley would be kicking himself if he lost Stacey! I mean who could not love her?!

I wonder how long it would take Bradley to start seeing other people?! I hope he wouldn't go off with one of these new 'sexing up' ladies arriving to spruce up the square. I think women would be intrigued by him. His money would be a turn on!

He would probably jump to the bait, if a women paid him a compliment. Being separated from Stacey of course!

littlemo

31-08-2006, 12:50

So tonight is the night! exciting!

How is Bradley going to convince Stacey to go through with it?! I really wish she would just make her own decision. Maybe when she goes in to do it, she'll be convinced it's the right thing. Perhaps they talk about it more and come to that conclusion.

No screencaps up yet. Could that mean something?!

Hmm, don't you usually leave mentioning the best present 'til last? If he had finished and then said "Oh... and Stacey bought be a bracelet thing" maybe, but he mentioned it and flashed it to everyone. I laughed when Bradley said it had his initials on it and Sean said "well that'll be handy" i.e. so when Sean beats him to a bloody pulp they will be able to identify the body :D

I have not heard anything on the front of sean beating up bradley...so I assume stacey convinces sean its a joint decision to go through with it and shes happy about it.Because overprotective Older brothers wouldnt just let an abortion Lie.....

Sean has done really well so far in EE normally by now he should either got GIANT banners on forums 'I love sean' or just being mouthed at for bad acting etc... so it looks good so far,maybe its to do with his evil dark side (like the whole budgie issue)(also on the subject on the sean a lot of comments have said what he did to AL was evil...did I miss something the guy shot him he did deserve that treatment)

I would like to see a 'friendly'chat between bradley and sean and actually see how they would reacte to each others diffrent views on life,

and finally I think its disgusting what bradleys doing to stacey ok theres aload of reasons why he wants a abortion but he hasnt really gave her much of a choice has he? I still like bradley but come on..... and im glad so far theres no menntion of the 'infamous slater rule of no abortions)

omg does Dot and Jim ever find out about this ????? I mean come on ...Dot is Bradley's biggest cheerleader,,, :searchme: This whole thing is a big mess.. but again hey its EE... they can twist and turn us thru all sorts of werid story lines .... Bradley has changed so much since he arrived Walford,, as some one said hes got a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde personality,,
Sighhhhhhhhh they are crucifying alot of good characters,,, now what is going to become of Staceys character... she used to have this "ARE U TALKING TO ME ???" attitude,, that facade is sorta disapearing,, :wall: I am just throwing out random thoughts,, so every thing I have said here is a bit disjointed,, sorry gang :cool:

littlemo

31-08-2006, 15:07

Well Zoe had an abortion, and they were all there for her. I don't think the 'no abortion rule' really exists in that family, it was just something that Zoe felt she couldn't do because of Kat having her at such a young age. But of course she went through with it anyway because of Chrissie's badgering.

Little Mo said in court she had no problem with abortion, it just didn't feel right for her. Kat tried to badger Little Mo into getting rid of her baby. And Kat said herself if she had known she was pregnant earlier she might have had an abortion with Zoe.

No I think it's up to the individual Slater.

littlemo

31-08-2006, 15:17

All this talk of Kat, is making me miss her! I hope she comes back at some point. I think her and Stacey make a fabulous double act.

I think they need to bring more life back into Stacey's character. She's getting too serious.

Maybe her and Bradley breaking up, for a while, would be the best thing for her character. She can learn to be independent again, try and recreate what she once was.

I mean stuff like what Stacey's going through now makes the Slaters get harder, doesn't it?! Like when Kat had Zoe and the rape, that's what changed her. That's what made her put on that front. To stop herself from getting hurt.

Maybe Bradley isn't Stacey's Alfie. When Kat was with Alfie, he didn't change her. He had that fiery personality too. And he was nice with it. He had everything!

I just don't know.

Good episode. I really liked the moments between Stacey and Bradley. Ah so sweet!

I didn't feel any hate for Bradley at all throughout that. He was really sweet! Coming back into find her, so he could talk to her properly. And he didn't force her. There was no time where he said, 'it's the baby or me'. Like some of the magazines were spouting. He had genuine feelings and concerns. Him being sick was a nice touch.

I think they'll get through this. They obviously adore each other!

Although Bradley still didn't say he loved her did he?! that did anger me a bit.

In the last scene, was anyone else thinking Stacey had just come out of the beauty salon. The size of her nails?! Oh my god! I also really love that jacket and jeans. Was those part of the classier lines Bradley was talking about?!

He did say he loved her!! :cheer: :cheer: He said something like " I want you and only you, I love ya" Thank god!! lol.
Omg how sad was it! :crying: Bradley actually said " I won't force you into anything" So if she said no I don't want it he'd of came home with her.
If they don't win best couple in the Inside Soap awards I will not be a happy chappy!!!

I am definetely going to have to watch that episode again, to see him say he loves her. I did tape it.

There's no chance she didn't go through with it is there?! Too much graphic detail. And after what Bradley said about him not being able to force her, I don't think she'd feel the need to lie. It's sad. :crying:

I definitely think she went through with it, you had me doubting it but after tonight I'm convinced it went ahead. :)

When she came back and sat down and looked blankly at the wall but with a tear rolling down her face I knew she had done it. As you say she has no reason to lie.

Yeah your right. Ah!

I watched it again, and heard it when he said 'I love you'. It sounded like he was manipulating her.

It was right after Stacey was talking about keeping it, and she asked him what he wanted.

Did you hear the bit when Bradley was talking about the bad thought he gets in his head?! and how he feels like he's his dad inside. Scary!

I don't get it, because I don't think Max is like that. Bradley seems a lot more scarier than him at times. He's got these dead eyes! Really weird!

The writers seemed to be making a strong statement about teenagers who have babies. The way Bradley was calling them losers and being 'stuck'. It was quite a good thing to say really. It did kind of ring true.

He seemed to be confused with the fact that Stacey would want to spend her young life looking after a kid. They do seem to have different ideas about want they want.

Her friend Abby was pregnant at like 15 wasn't she?!

It's great that they are so different! But maybe there are too many differences?!

Rach33

31-08-2006, 21:37

I agree about the too many differences if the writers aren't careful Stacey and Bradley won't have anything in common except they are both teenagers

If they aren't careful there will be nowhere left for them to run as a couple

I thought it was far too convient oh I don't want a kid she needs me to tell I love her and so what does he do he tells her he loves her. When he spoke to Max the other night he hesitiated when Max asked if he loved her

I don't think Bradley believes in loving someone but he played on her insecurities and told her what she wanted to hear

PR1811

31-08-2006, 21:57

So what did anyone else think of Bradley's declaration of love?! Do you think he mean't it? or do you think he was saying it to get her to have the abortion?

It all seemed a bit too convenient from where I was sitting. The way he looked her directly in the face, fixated with his eyes. Like he was coaxing her or something.

I don't think he believes in telling anyone that he loves them. When Stacey said it the first time, he asked her 'what it mean't?'.

I just don't know.
lol, I suppose it depends how you look at it, that he was lying and being devious to pressurise her into having the abortion or he was being truthful and really meant everything he said.

Personally I'm making the judgement from his previous record and how he was scared and being sick at the clinic, and I would say that he is being truthful. He wanted her to have the abortion, he laid out the reasons why he felt it wasn't the right time to have a baby (did you expect him to be impartial to it?) He told her she had the final decision and that he loved her and that he wanted to be with her.

I'll have to watch it again later... :)

littlemo

31-08-2006, 21:59

Yeah, that's what I think.

He might care, but if she wasn't going through this, I think he'd wait a hell of a lot longer to say he loved her. I don't think he feels love the intensive way that Stacey clearly does.

He's got fear of abandonment issues, but so has Stacey.

I think each of us watched it in a different way! lol.

The way I saw it, Bradley said she had to make the decision. But then when Stacey asked him what he wanted, he saw the opportunity to put across his opinion, very strongly. It sounded like manipulation to me.

Bradley should have said, when Stacey brought it back to him, that he'd go along with what she wanted. That he'd be there for her no matter what she decided.

I'm not blaming Bradley. I think he had a good argument, but I don't think Stacey should have gone along with it just to make him happy. She should have thought about herself as well.

I just don't know.
In my opinion I think he meant it. I think coz Stacey was saying stuff like " Is that why you never say you love me? Because you don't?" I think he was just trying to say that wasn't the case. That he did love her and if she really wanted to keep the baby he'd be with her. Remember his reasons for not saying it before? He thought it all goes wrong when you tell someone you love them and maybe at the clinic when Stacey was saying all that he thought its going wrong when he hasn't said it so he may aswell say it! And she was clearly distraught and he wanted to show how much he cares for her.
There is my bit of seriousness over for the day :lol:

well not bradley for a start. he says he loves stacey, but all he was thinking about was not mucking his life up and ruining his job. it seems he cared more for his lifestyle than the baby itself.

what if stacey got pregnant again in the next couple of years, would he turn round and make her go through having an abortion again just because the timing dosent suit him?

BlackKat

31-08-2006, 22:49

I think there's a definite case to be made for Bradley manipulating Stacey. I mean, take the line "I want you and nothing more." On one hand it could mean "You're the only one for me etc." On the other it could mean, "I only want you on your own, not you with the baggage of a baby." And I think in the state she was in, Stacey could have taken it the second way.

I do understand Bradley's feelings, but I still don't like the way he made it all about him. His main argument was his relationship with Max, nothing to do with him and Stacey as individuals. And I don't think he listened to Stacey's feelings -- he just dismissed them with the practical side of things. And while the practicalities are very important, so is what you're feeling despite of them.

I don't think they'll be okay after this. I don't see how they can.

He's looking at her saying the actual words. But before that either he's looking down at the floor, or looking at her stomach, one or the two. Watching it again, I think he's looking at her stomach actually.

I definetely agree that when he said, 'I want you and nothing more', he was talking about getting rid of the baby.

I don't think they'll be okay after this. I don't see how they can.

No chance I think bradley should of been more of a man about it...'I dont want to end up like Dad'....well prove you wont then little boy at least he stood by you (for 6 years anyway) you didnt even have the guts to think about what your girlfriend wanted only what you wanted .I used to like bradley I cant stand him now.

stacey isnt made for bradley im afraid theres a "alfie" out there somewhere for her

I don't really know what to think. Bradley's entitled to his opinion. And if he can't handle it, I suppose it's better saying it now than waiting till the baby's born to say it. That wouldn't be fair on Stacey either would it?!

But I just think Bradley and Stacey will have different views on the whole thing.

I don't actually hate Bradley as much as I thought I would to be honest.Yeah he did rush things...alot but its not as if he said to Stacey "Get rid of it or I'm leaving you" He said he would never leave her and although he made it obvious he didn't want to keep the baby he asked what she wanted to do. Bradley didn't get Stacey in a head lock and drag her into the operating room. :lol:

I think Bradley's going to be criticised for it. By Sean and probably Mo and Charlie when they find out. Max might even say something, you never know.

The stuff that Bradley was talking about made a lot of sense. Most people think having a baby that young is going to ruin your life.

I would have loved to have seen what Bradley's reaction would have been if Stacey had said 'I don't care, I'm going to have the baby anyway'. And she just walked out. I think he would have maybe tried to talk her round, but once her minds made up, there's no changing it is there?!

He wouldn't have just left her. He's not that kind of guy.

littlemo

01-09-2006, 01:57

I've watched it again and I stick with my belief that Bradley meant everything he said. When he said he loved her he looked at the ground not because he was preparing to lie but because it was a huge thing for him to say.

He did look sweet when he said it. I would hope it wasn't for show, but I'm not so sure.

He did look very guilty when Stacey sat down beside him after she'd done it. It seemed like he thought she could turn on him at any moment.

I hope he does too. He does seem to feel guilt.

Maybe the kind will be not grassing up her brother if he beats him up?! To protect Stacey's feelings.

Not really the equivalent, but it's a start.

Maybe Bradley will think he deserves it?!

littlemo

01-09-2006, 02:19

Do you think Bradley got the fact that Stacey wanted the baby?! She gave him enough signs to suggest it didn't she?! He just seemed to push away the fact that she was having second thoughts.

When Stacey said she wasn't sure she wanted to go through with it. He just said she was scared. She had 2 weeks to think about it, I think she'd know what she was feeling more than Bradley.

I'm going back and forth with my feelings for Bradley! lol.

PR1811

01-09-2006, 02:29

I think they both had second thoughts hence why Bradley went through to see Stacey but after going through it again he came to same conclusion that the abortion was for the best.

Sounds like some good spoilers..i guess this is the week that Bradley asks Stacey to move in with him!

I don't really hate Bradley after last night's episode, him and Stacey did rush things but he was right over some things he said like responsibility etc..and it's not like he doesn't want to have children ever, he said that he will never leave Stacey and would like to have kids with her when their a lot older so i still like Bradley, i just thought that him and Stacey should have talked about their possibilities a lot more.

Why are the going to live together?

Kim

01-09-2006, 11:04

I can't believe he forced her to go through with the abortion like that. By the looks of it he knows next to nothing about her, because he said she'd be 22 with a 5 year old kid when she'd be 22 with a 4 year old kid. Also, he can't see that she only went through with it because she was scared that he would leave her if she didn't and she'd be left on her own which is something that she is afraid of because of the circumstances surrounding her upbringing.

Kim

01-09-2006, 11:06

Why are the going to live together?

Maybe Bradley thinks it will make things better between them after the abortion because she begins to be off with him.

parkerman

01-09-2006, 11:06

I think that what Bradley was really afraid of was turning in to his father. By which he meant that he might leave Stacey in six years time and leave her with the child to bring up on her own and the effect that will have on the child. As he said he cried for weeks after his father left.

So, although he is saying all that stuff about his job and about Stacey being trapped at the age of 17 what he is really afraid of is eventually hurting the baby and putting it through what he went through.

It's all very sad really.

DaVeyWaVey

01-09-2006, 11:46

I think they might just be looking around houses first or something to actually buy and they get shown round a house by a landlord and she could make inappropriate jokes to him and then they realise they can't buy or afford a house so they move into Max's.

I might be wrong but i just heard that they move into Max's house.

I'm glad Stacey's joking around again. I'm glad to see it!

I wonder what the landlords like?! Maybe it's his appearance she finds so amusing? or perhaps his voice?!

I'm glad that Bradley and Stacey are at the centre of the storylines this week again. I like the joking around side to their relationship as well as the hard hitting drama. It's nice to see.

STACEY: I'm gonna drop my chip paper after. Just to get up his nose.
BRADLEY: You ever pack up working on the stall, you could get a job with the UN.
I think this is when Bradley asks Stacey to move in with him.The dinner must be round the chippy! :lol:

Someone made an interesting comment on Talk Walford about Bradley. Saying when his mind is set on something, he twists things and justifies it by making himself look good. That makes a lot of sense.

He goes on about Stacey lying, why doesn't he take a look in the mirror.

I don't think he knows what he wants. Stacey was saying about how Bradley doesn't want kids with her, because she's not good enough. What he said about him wanting loads of kids with her, but not now. I'm not sure that was truthful either.

I like Bradley, but I think he's quite a confused man.
I think he meant what he said about having kids in the future. When Stacey was saying the stuff about her not being good enough I think he looked really hurt she would say that, which made him want to justify (if thats the right word to use :confused: ) that it had nothing to do with her its just he didn't feel it was the right time. He has doubts in his mind that he could end up like Max and desert the child and Stacey and he doesn't want to put either of them through the traumer he went through.
By the way! Did anyone notice when Stacey said "Why are you wearing that tie?" when she said that I had a feeling he put on a suit and tie on because thats what you do at a funeral and maybe it was his lil sign of respect to the baby. Or maybe I'm just reading too much into it! lol.
I don't think they really talk tonight do they? Someone said it was awkward when they meet again so maybe they just kinda blank each other! :lol:

I thought that tie thing was a really funny comment for Stacey to make. It was quite off topic, and yet it is quite symbolic.

I think he was trying to look respectable, like he is was taking charge of the situation. If he was in his tie, he could somehow manage to keep his feelings in check, like a mask. He kept saying lets stick to the plan. I think he was trying to treat it like a chore he had to get through. Like at his job. Probably the only way he could get through it.

That and probably he felt that he could be stronger for Stacey, if he had his feelings underwraps.

I know. They aren't even showing his holiday leave yet?! He said he was going away for 2 weeks in August, Charlie that is.

Stacey and Bradley don't go away this time though. Stacey's still not wanting to speak to him.

Maybe Bradley texts her to ask her, I'm not sure. But I suppose it would explain why they aren't in a scene together.

ye i agree the tie thing i think was like going to funeral with him saying goodbye to the baby . i was upset that he wanted things his own way and when satcey kept saying that they could do it all he said was lets stick to the plan! that way he could get what he wanted without staceys input. but she does have her own voice and she could have gone through it if she really wanted to keep the baby .

Sean's getting more viscious with Bradley isn't he?! Did you see the look on Bradley's face? he looked like a scared rabbit. He really wouldn't stand a chance against him. I hope it never comes to a point where Bradley has to protect Stacey against him.

Stacey is so much stronger than Bradley, in her mind, and physically. Bradley needs to take a leaf out of her book. But I think that's why Stacey likes him, because he's different.

More interaction with Max tonight. I'm sure they are involving him in this baby storyline for a reason. And I think possibly him and Stacey could become something more.

I've been thinking about this 'I love you' statement by Bradley, and I've thought of a way Stacey might be able to find out if he means it or not.

Every time Bradley wants to show his feelings for Stacey, he says 'I'm mad about you'. The next time that moment comes up, it'll be interesting to see whether he says 'I love you'. If he says 'I'm mad about you', I think Stacey might start to think whether he mean't what he said at the clinic.
A bit of detective work? :lol: It's a good idea though! I can't see Bradley saying either untill he asks Stacey to move in with him like. I don't think there is much interactioin in the upcomming couple of weeks. Could be wrong though! (wouldn't be the first time!):lol:

I hope nothing comes of Max and Stacey. Or maybe Max leans in for a kiss and she pushes him away but I really can't see it happening in the near future.

Great news about Charlie on Test The Nation, I wasn't going to watch it, because I think it's quite boring. It goes on for so long. But maybe I'll have a quick look at it. See how it goes.

He may give something away about Bradley and Stacey. He can't say too much, but perhaps he'll give a hint or something.

littlemo

03-09-2006, 00:45

So did you guys watch Test The Nation?! I only saw bits at the end, but it didn't seem like Charlie gave any hints about any upcoming storylines. I saw it when Anne mentioned it being a sad week in Eastenders, and he just nodded. I doubt there was any conversation previous to that.

She asked whether he thought Charlie or Bradley would have the higher IQ, and he said he'd like to say him, but probably not (I missed a little bit of that conversation). He said Stacey would do well in it. But he laughed a bit, you think he was being sarcastic?! lol.

From what I saw he seemed very laid back. And a lot hotter in real life! Although I still think Bradley's sexy.
