Stacey/Bradley *May contain Spoilers*

[Joy2286]

Another case of wait and see methinks!

[littlemo]

I feel like I'm following you round the boards, like a puppy dog! lol. Joy. :)

Where is everyone else?! lol.

I'm glad Max stayed with Tanya tonight, I felt sorry for Stacey stuck there, but that's where he should be.

There hasn't been any Bradley for a few days now has there?! I am getting withdrawl symptoms lol.

[Nigella harman]

I'm just guessing cos on the webcam a few weeks ago there was an ambulance outside the Vic so I'm guessing it might have something to do with this but then again I could be putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5!

You may be right. But there was also a webcam snippet with Stacey talking to Sean about punching someone. And now I think it could be Bradley. From the conversation it doesn't seem like it's that serious.

Although again it's guess work. :)No!!!He punches the decoy date builder,this is later on,and there was an ambulance,but we also know deano has his accident,but that was earlier than the crash,so i think the ambulance is for Bradders,I am actually quite pleased he is being taken away from Stacey,People who originally defended the idea of this storyline are now saying shes fast becoming a crap character,I fear she may have done serious damage to stacey,and i have to agree.This is not looking good.The sooner Bradleys ties are cut with her the better,and in all fairness,Shirley Wicks delivered a far superior version of Kat tonight.Stacey is starting to look like she doesnt belong,.If she hasnt got Bradley,Ruby or Jean,then whats her point.?Wake up Eastenders.:angry:

Yeah I initially felt sorry for Stace but I think she knew that Max had to be with his family. He did the right thing essentially.

I know! Where's my boy gone? I'm missing him! :crying:

God! Stacey certainly creates tension wherever she goes doesn't she?! lol.

I still like her. I think she's great!

The way she's treating everybody at the moment isn't, but it's just one side of her.

I still feel sympathy for her, even though she's ruining everyone else's lives. I think that proves how good an actress/character she is.

Once this Sean/Jean thing starts up again, we'll get to see her revert back to the emotional stuff. I don't think this will last that long.

[Joy2286]

Yeah I agree Little Mo- you can't hide the real you for too long and eventually Stacey's "I don't care about anyone, I couldn't give a monkeys" persona that she's portraying will slip.

And totally agree- Lacey Turner is an amazing actress- especially for an 18 year old. Hope she wins more awards this year

[Siobhan]

Was it just me or did EE try to make Stacey look so much like Kat last night??? she was a picture of her and she has developed the Kat "I don't give a monkeys but really I do" attitude too

[Nigella harman]

Hopefully they will see the reaction from the viewers,cause this is meant to be Stacey,the real Stacey.Ruby hasnt gone on a temporary holiday,Bradley hasnt called for a little time apart,they are both no longer to be included in her life,and next to go is Jean!:( Will Stacey still run around after her mum when she finds out this secret,I cant see it,so Stacey is left with Sean,the person she didnt want to squat in Jakes house with because she wanted to feel wanted.Emotional Stacey is on her way out.The whole point of this is to take her back to the first Stacey we met,who had no one,and was angry,its not just a coincidence she is acting this way,this is the new Stacey.I think the only awards Lacey will be picking up for Stacey this year are for best bitch!!and shes got strong competition there,that girl on hollyoaks and of course,Patsy Kensit.Edit,it seems that Paris was right about Stacey and Max sleeping together twice,so it seems the Jean/Sean thing is happening.Oh lord!Ive just seen a spoiler saying that when Max is with Stacey one day,because hes more interested in giving her one than looking after his own kids,hes late to pick Abby up and she ends up injured in Deanos car accident.

[littlemo]

I disagree, I don't think her attitude at the moment is the 'real' Stacey. She's just emotionally wounded, and wants to get revenge on the people who have hurt her. She still cares about her family, she's not all bad.

She's got a lot of growing up to do. She's streetwise, but I don't think she's mature.

I knew someone like her (not to the extent as Stacey is). But people who end up taking care of their supposed care givers, at a young age, can go off the rails. You can pull yourself back from it though. And I think Stacey can too.

Lacey Turner said this is the real Stacey in Woman magazine.Thats why im calling her that.Its not my opinion,to be honest i think the real Stacey is the one from last year,thats why its sooo frustrating to watch,and i guess why it isnt working.:) As for the caring bit,I had to look after my Mum,she wasnt far off Jean,but in a different way,which is why i empathise with Stacey a lot,but this isnt Stacey,my problem is with the producers who have made such a mess of this and totally ignored public opinion.Not with Stacey,she just does as shes told!!being as shes not real!!!:lol:

Right. Yeah it's probably just Lacey's opinion though, as well. Who knows what the writers have planned for her. The actors only know so far in advance.

I empathise with Stacey as well, for similar reasons. I don't think she's going to stay hard once Bradley finds out. He knows her.

I agree with you Little Mo- Stacey's had to deal with things that are hard for most people even twice her age to deal with and she's had to grow up fast but because she's still young there's still a lot she has to learn.

:lol: I agree with Little Mo!!But,Im talking not as in what i think or what i would like to happen,but what we have been told.I think though that the fact that people refuse to believe she is some kind of Janine character(and rightly so) is a major hurdle/problem for them and that is why this storyline just is not working.For example-Only 2 weeks ago Stacey Slater was the girl who wanted to settle down,move in with her boyfriend,have a family,even though she is very young.Now,only 2 weeks later "sources" at Eastenders who are explaining the 2007 plots are trying to explain Stacey going back for more with Max(she only needed to do it once for revenge) as her way of getting the excitement she craves!!!:rolleyes: No matter what problems you have,your wants and needs in life define who you are as a person,they dont just change over night,THIS is why the whole thing isnt making sense.Stacey was one person one day and with a click of the fingers,someone else,revenge aside.
Lacey says that she thinks Stacey is a cross between Kat and Janine,she said last year,over and over she wanted Bracey to split because she wanted Stacey to go back to being a bitch,she said this is the real Stacey and that she worries when kids send her letters saying they look up to Stacey cause they really shouldnt!Now that Bracey is over she describes herself as having FUN FUN FUN!,and she is having a ball.She thinks she won her awards last year cause of Staceys gobby nature.She said in that interview i posted before they are splitting because she wanted her to go back to being a bitch.So they seemed to have listened to her.The Stacey i know and love is last years Stacey,the Stacey Lacey loves is the new "real" Stacey.I know a lot of Bracey fans want them back.What the hec happens next,I have no idea!But it is a mess.What do they do,listen to the fans,or listen to Lacey?
PS I had no idea,the guy from Hollyoaks was the original Billy Jackson!!!bless.:lol:

[Joy2286]

It's an interesting one isn't it. I think everyone knows the reason Lacey won all those awards last year were because of those fantastic scenes with her and her Mum and the abortion storyline where we saw a totally different side to her- that's the side of Stacey we like and that's why we voted for her to win those awards. It's got nothing to do with Stacey's bitchiness or her gobby nature- but Lacey's talents as an actress- though clearly tptb don't realise that.

And now worryingly it looks as though Jeans relationship with her could well be in trouble.With all this Sean/Jean business,our friend told us about.:( I love Jean,cant believe they are doing this to her!:eek:

[Joy2286]

The more I hear the more it sounds like a car crash waiting to happen-I'm sure it'll be brilliantly done but it's a shame they've chosen to go down this route with an excellent character who could have had so much more potential

[littlemo]

Maybe Sean will pull her back from the brink. He's bound to need a lot of support throughout this whole Jean thing, and you can tell Stacey loves her brother to bits. :)

It's bound to show a nice side to her character.

[Joy2286]

Yeah I can see it bringing Stacey and Sean closer together but then again it might turn Stacey even more against Sean if she's angry with him for leaving her with their Mum when he knew what she was capable of :hmm:

Very good point!In all honesty i think they have got rid of the highly popular duo Ruby and Stacey,Finished the most popular couple in soap,and it looks like damaging the relationship between Stacey and Jean for one reason,to put Stacey right back where she was when she started,on her own and angry,you dont get rid of 3 things that popular for no reason.I think its a huge mistake though,its already really unpopular,i dont remember seeing anyone wanting to see this!crazy!!And if you look,on the storyline poll S and B are right up there with Sharon/Dennis and Get Jonny week,and gaining all the time.So why axe them Eastenders?:wall:
Any way Joy!did you see Charlie on Just the 2 of us!???

[Joy2286]

I know! It's madness I tell you!

OMG yes I did!!!! So fit hahaha! "Alright John!" Loved it! Thought he might have been on at some point so I've been watching all week waiting for that! Jake Wood was in the audience last night but you could tell he was a bit uncomfortable with Vernon interviewing him. Bless the girls who play Lauren and Abi being on there too!

Anyway back to Bracey I was reading the TV guide yesterday and apparently on Thursday Deano embarrasses Bradley and Lydia in the Vic and then on Friday Stacey is touched by a kind gesture from Bradley so I wonder what's going on there :hmm: Are we meant to assume Bradley and Lydia are a couple now or just good friends?

[littlemo]

Maybe it's part of Bradley's master plan to get revenge on Stacey for Max? Or is too soon for that?! How long do we have to wait until he finds out?!

[Joy2286]

Hmmm nah Bradley doesn't find out until the end of the month. I seem to remember reading something about it being Jean's birthday and he offers to help Stacey with it or something- I guess he's just being friendly bless his heart!

[PR1811]

Yes, it's something to do with Jeans birthday, we don't know anything more than that...

[Joy2286]

Ah well! I'll just have to tune in- at least I can console myself with the fact that I may actually see him on screen for more than half a second this week!

[Nigella harman]

Yeah,its getting a bit silly isnt it!!Youd never know it was his breakup too!But hopefully we will get some great stuff later on this month when the poor guy gets his head beaten to a pulp and finds out there isnt many people he can trust in the world!:crying: Its so annoying,they are so busy doing this big push for Stacey,again,we dont have a clue whats happening with Bradders,has he got a girlfriend,or not?whats his future hold,will he feature much?:searchme: Its as though hes suddenly not important,and lets face it,he is!:lol: Whats happening!!!

[Joy2286]

It annoys me so much because Charlie is a fantastic actor but time and time again he gets overshadowed by Lacey! He's treated more and more as an auxiliary character and it is so frustrating because if the writers listened (4 awards obv going in one ear and out the other) they'd actually realise he is a popular character- just as popular as Stacey if not more (again referring to my comment about the awards he picked up last year)! We get to see nothing of his side of the story whatsoever and we all know in such situations as Stacey and Bradley's there are always 2 sides to the story. I'm just hoping that come the end of the month we shall be seeing a lot more of him when everything comes out and things boil to a head between him and Sean. If they're cutting down on the amount Bradders features in the show I am not going to be happy!

:lol: But do you know what,25% wanted Sonia to be with Naomi!and 75% to be with Martin.which makes this storyline even less popular than that one!!!

[Siobhan]

Oh that actually is sad!!! I am not liking Stacey at the moment.. She doesn't seem to want revenge, she actually looks like she is enjoying this and wants it

[Nigella harman]

Hahahaha! Go us! Don't think they edited any of mine hahaha! Didn't realise how much of an essay I'd written!

Wonder how Rob Kazinsky being suspended is going to affect this whole storyline- maybe they'll re-write it so he gets sent to prison for GBH when he attacks Bradders or something :hmm:

[Nigella harman]

Stacey took her knickers off and left them in her marrieds mans bedroom after asking how much he thought she was worth.Oh My God.What the hell is dierdrick santer doing.I told you he hated them together.Shes a TOTALLY different person.At least it looks as though we might see Bradders wine and Dine Lydia after all.But the new Stacey im afraid is pants!(pardon the pun!!!)
