Bradley/Stacey (May contain spoilers)...

[Jojo]

New thread for Bradley/Stacey discussion, including spoilers, due to disappearance of old thread.

Please keep ALL Bradley/Stacey discussion (whether together or not) here...

:)

[slater girl]

Tell us everything you like to say about bradders and his family here and stace and her family on here please.

Including his former relationship with stacey and his current love preeti and about the stax affair and how stace is treating bradley.

I mean on the 7th april there was an interview with lacey and charlie on radio 1 and they discussed their characters and the triange with max. Sara cox said that bradders and stacey were star-crossed lovers and are meant to be and lacey and charlie both agreed on this. I mean charlie and lacey agreed that bradley and stacey will end up together as they are star-crossed lovers on the radio 1 interview who will always be drawn together somehow by circumstance or thrown together for some reason, but it depends on when and what happens to them and the characters they play they both said.

Lacey and Charlie also said that they are a few more twist and turns in the relationship with max before stax is revealed and this was on the radio 1 chat show with sara cox that they said this.

Lacey and charlie did say that they have people come up to them on the streets asking for bradders and stacey to get back together and hear it everywhere they go and old ladies come up to lacey and tell her to get rid of max and get bradley back. It was great. come and discuss this chat or anything else about bradders or stace on here please.

[DaVeyWaVey]

Judging from last night's episode, it seems to me that Stacey only wants to get back with Bradley to make Max jealous, which is really unfair, as Stacey kept saying "oh i'll go and comfort Bradley shall I?" obviously just to get a jealous reaction from Max. I just feel like Stacey is using Bradley to get at Max, because she knows that he'll get jealous.

Eastenders upcoming Bradley & Stacey Spoiler - Mirror Newspaper Today

STACEY'S BACK IN BRAD'S PIT

CALLING all EastEnders fans - and incurable romantics. Stacey and Bradley are getting back together this summer.
Yes, the course of true love has not run exactly smooth for the youngsters - not least because Stacey has been shagging Brad's dad.
But that seedy relationship will hit the buffers during a half-hour episode on May 25 - which plays out in real time.
Our Stace, normally to be found wearing a basque and tarty fishnets, gets increasingly frustrated at Max's failure to tell Tanya of their lust, sorry love.
She finally flips and gives him half an hour to get over there and spill the beans.
As she waits for Max to return with the good news that he's all hers, viewers will live each of those 30 tension-filled minutes with Stacey.
But as the clock ticks away, it soon becomes clear that he ain't exactly rushing back...
Our Walford snout reveals: "Stacey really wants Max for herself but she can't see that he's just using her and never had any intention of leaving Tanya and the kids.
"After her ultimatum backfires, she is left to lick her wounds and it's Bradley who picks up the pieces."
He may have dropped Stacey for being common (memo to Brad: she hasn't changed much) but the pair soon rekindle their romance (sorry, Preeti).
Of course the big question is, just how long before gogetting ginger-nut Brad finds out that his girl has been seducing his balding gingernut dad?
Not that long, we'll wager.

[fareehab4ne1]

this seems good i cant wait to see it, but i still preferred it if someone knew about it lol

[Pinkbanana]

I hate the whole Stacey and Max storyline....sooooo pleased that the end is in sight! :cheer: I use the like these characters, but now really dislike them both and find them sleazy.

What I find confusing (probably because I change channels when they come on the screen - especially when in the Vic loos!:sick: ) is whether Stace is still using Max to get revenge on Bradders and if she gets back with Bradders (as mentioned in the Mirror piece above) is she just using him to get back at Max? :hmm:

Answers on a postcard please :) lol

[slater girl]

Stace did say in a earlier episode that her plans have changed as this was after the episode that stacey told max she loved him and she told max that it is not to get revenge on bradders anymore as she fell in love with max, but i think she gets back with bradders to get back at max as max has used her and now stacey knows this.

I am pretty sure stace still has feelings for bradley as she still likes him and she was glad to see him when she came back from holiday and they had a good laugh together and i think that brings them closer together again but i think as time goes on her feelings for bradders may be rekindled and she falls back in love with him, then stax will come out, that is what i think is gonna happen here and then she realises after that she loves bradders and what she has lost in losing him and tries to win bradders back afterwards as i am pretty sure of this that this is gonna happen.

that is what i think will happen.

[littlemo]

Yeah Stacey's bound to get really hurt in the long run! Cause i think she cares for both Max and Bradley! It's doubtful Bradley will be able to forgive what's happened between her and his dad. But then will he put the blame on Max rather than her. Stacey was torn too pieces by what Bradley said to her. Really though is it an excuse for all the lies?!

[Steven]

[COLOR="Red"]I use the like these characters, but now really dislike them both and find them sleazy.

Is that a bad thing? :p

I usually find it hilarious how sleazy Stacey can be :)

[Siobhan]

I find Max more sleazy.. imagine getting your wife and girlfriend the same undies.. I actually thought he gave Tanya the ones Stacey was wearing until Bradley found them in her pocket :rotfl::rotfl:

[Steven]

Max is just after a shag what is it with old men their always interested in younger people

[Eastenders_4ev@]

cant wait i want bradders and stacey back together they made a brill couple!!!!!

[slater girl]

All Spoilers originally posted on Digital Spy Forums by Kyri

spoilers in the mags are suggesting that Stacey's new man she has a revenge fling against Max with is NOT Bradley!

I can only hope this means that her and Bradley will get back together on a more permanent basis after. All About Soap is hinting it might be Deano but I can't see that lasting. Of course the whole thing could just be a red herring and it might well be Bradders all along- we shall have to wait and see but I'm not getting my hopes up too much just yet

I reckon it is bradley she gets back with as it shows the two handers episodes in all the soap magazines and what happens afterwards, we will just have to wait and see. This was in All about Soap magazine and all the pictures i have seen are all from bradley, so i assume she sleeps with him as the person after wants a more permanent relationship.

They said when bradley finds out in the all about soap magazine, there will be fast worse revenge to come when bradley finds out and they said that bradley has a dark side and max and stacey should both fear for their lives when bradley finds out about the affair.

Also in all about soap magazine on the 31 may in the magazine it has a picture of stacey and bradley together and it says rekindled romance so i assume stacey sleeps with bradley and bradley wants it more permanent, we will just have to wait and see what happens.

Lacey also said in all about soap magazine interview that stacey does still care for bradley and never meant to hurt him and she hates lying to him about her affair with max.

Also that week what happens is that bradley starts reading her text messages that week and see's jerry on her phone which is her nickname for max and max is terrified that bradley will find out and piece the evidence together as she has given bradley too much and bradley has gone through her phone as well and found out the rest such as he is married with kids and that is when the ultimultim is issued from stacey as that night stacey waits with bradley at home while waiting to hear from max about max leaving tanya and that is why she runs back to bradley and cries on his shoulders .

Also bradley tells max about stacey mystery man and what stacey has told him so max tells stacey their affair is too risky and could be exposed at any minute so stacey issues the ultimutium so when max does not return that night she runs back to bradley as stacey finds out about tanya pregnancy from abi through a dvd that abi showed her. so check out what is coming up next week please

this is what else i have found out from digital spy webpages

Apparetly from digital spy forum as i am not a member now and just looking through the pages, i got this from another member on there.

Apparently Stacey sleeps with



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deano
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

but he becomes obsessed with her- But she soon ends back with


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bradley

[slater girl]

I wonder how bradley and stacey reunite and be a couple again, i am just curious and in the back of what on tv the week after it says stacey is falling for bradley.

So i wonder how she falls back in love with him and how her feelings are rekindled so quickly and what about her little fling with deano, i wonder how that ends, and how she starts to get back with bradders in a relationship, is it that week that it happens or it is that stacey decides to rekindle it a week later with bradders after sleeping with deano and stacey tells deano is was a mistake she deeply regrets and wishes she could take back.

any ideas anyone?

[littlemo]

I don't no! throwing Deano into the mix as well is a bit confusing isn't it! lol. Stacey's probably just upset about Max, and Deano's there. And she can't talk 2 Bradley about it! Perhaps shes feeling guilty as well, cause she has got a heart.

[slater girl]

Have you seen the all about soap mini mag out in today mag, it gives fans a preview on what is to come and this was one of the 30 secrets storylines set for eastenders which are coming soon.

It says that bradders and stace are set to marry on it or are engaged to be married.

It says stacey get's back with bradders but the spectre of stacey affair with max hangs over the pair even through they are engaged to be married.

[slater girl]

I have just read in all about soap magazine that stacey and bradders do get back together but bradders is trying to identity the married man stacey has been seeing, and how long will it be before it is out in the open?

In the interview with charlie clements in all about soap, he does reveal that bradley will find out the truth and that is when his whole world will explode. Everything is going to come out and bradley's life is going to come crashing down around him.

They also asked about the bradders and stace getting hitched and he said he is sworn to secrecy about it as it is so big.

One thing is for sure is max is a selfish so and so and won't be pleased that his sordid little arrangement with his young mistress has ended- even if his son is happy as larry to have his bird back.

Will max lure saucy stacey back into his lair and bradley catch the pair of them at it?
Or maybe Max'll play it cool until the big day, then reveal all in his best man's speech about the affair to bradley.

From All about Soap

[slater girl]

Please read if you need to, these are upcoming spoilers on bradders and stace coming soon please.


In Monday's episode Bradley will ask stacey for a special meal for stacey for it all to end in diaster on monday's episode.

On Tuesday episode sean catches bradley going through stacey's drawers, also bradley narrowly misses an picture of max as well that day as charlie clements said this in the all about soap interview on page 40.

Also stacey also reckons she should end things with bradley and this is when Bradley tries his had at karaoke to try and win stacey back by serenade her with a bit of karaoke at shirley's party as he is desperate to win stacey back, as stacey is dancing with an polish builder and stacey is embarrassed by bradley's singing and that is when it all kicks of and stacey comes to bradders rescue as the builder punches bradley and pours a beer over bradley as they take the mickey out of bradley's singing.

Also stacey comes to bradley's rescue and steps in and lamps the burly builder slater style punches for taking the mickey out of bradley and it does little to diffuse the situation so bradley and stacey decide it is best to leave and call it a night and go back to the branning's to help bradley clean himself up.

Stacey goes back to look after bradley and helps clean him up after the fight in the bar after he has cut his lip and that is when they end up kissing but bradley tries to pull her closer but she backs away but will this lead to something more.

Also on Friday bradley gets a promotion in his job which means he could end up leaving walford but will bradley go.

[Scorpio_Girl]

Bradley's really taking the biscuit though... Why is he soo desperate in getting Stacey back?? There are other ways of doing that. I used to like innocent Bradders but lately he's just rubbing me up the wrong way. Ok that sounds a bit wrong..

The whole thing with him ratting the woman out in that job interview was kind of evil of him but i thought it might show an edge to his character by continuing that good guy gone bad thing but noo.. One convo with Stacey (the rightious nun(!)) and he turns back into the pathetic loser that starts 'wooing' her again. Sorry to all the Bradley fans out there but I do wish they would show more to his character than this.

[slater girl]

In Monday's episode Bradley plans a romantic meal for Stacey, but concerned with the effort he is making, she cancels.

On Tuesday, Sean finds Bradley rummaging through Stacey’s room in search for clues about her mystery man.

When she finds out, a distraught Stacey tells Bradley their relationship is over.

On Thursday Bradley tells Stacey he realises that they are not meant to be, but when she later turns up on his doorstep wearing Vulcan ears, she has other ideas.

On Friday Annoyed with the gossip surrounding her and Bradley, Stacey books a holiday for them both, but little does she know about Bradley’s new job offer and where it may take him.

[Pinkbanana]

I think they ruined the Bradders and Stacey coupling last year. They could have been a really good soap couple, but typical EE they dont like couples to be happy (for long).

I honestly think if I was Stacey, after everything Bradders said to her/treated her at Crimbo, I wouldnt go back there! :thumbsdow

Okay, I know Stacey hasnt been totally perfect, ie sleeping with his married father and all that, but for me, the couple had been tainted forever before she got it on with Max....now just wait for the S**t to hit the fan when that business comes out!!! :eek:

[parkerman]

Stacey/Bradley/Max/Tanya

I can't help thinking that this rerun of the Bianca/Ricky/Dan/Carol story lacks the drama and intensity of the latter.

[slater girl]

In the mirror newspaper magazine this saturday called we love telly They have called Lacey Turner the undisputed female star of the soap - and bearing a strking resemblance to Jessie Wallace - Stacey and Bradley are the new kat and alfie, and like them they have to bear the experiences of calamitous series of trials and tribulations in their turbulent love life, that is what they have heard from the eastenders producers from what i believe, that they have told the mirror newspaper tv magazine.

This is a spoiler from this friday's upcoming episode

In this friday episode, max tries to convince stacey to resume their affair as max sneers with arrogance and max appartely boasts that bradley is not the right one for her and max is the one she loves and bradley will always be second best to stacey, and it says that we will soon find out who she choose's to be with and who proposal she will accept and that decides her decison.

[slater girl]

Spoilers From Inside Soap Magazine out Today

This is from the latest inside soap, these containg spoilers on max trying to ruin bradley and stacey engagement.

Marriage Wrecker

Max Branning obviously hast heard of showing dignity in the face of rejection. Despite having a loving wife in the shape of pregnant Tanya, as well as two adorable daughters, the insurance broker is"nt a happy man- especially not since learning that his ex-lover Stacey Slater has gpt engaged to his son Bradley. Still besotted with the saucy stallholder, Max sets out to destroy the teenagers relationship - before his former mistress becomes his daughter in law.

It a case of it i cant have you no one else can shares jake wood, who plays the deciteful dad. Max wont let any man wed Stacey, particulary not his own son!

He cant bear the thought of her moving on and anyway he knows shes the wrong women for bradley - she been sleeping with his dad after all! In Maxs mind he"ll be doing her a favour ruining things".

So Max embarks on a misson to ruin bradley and stacey romance, his first port of call is Stacey"s mum Jean, to whom he complains that the newly betrothed couple are moving too fast. The next trick up his sleeve is by far is most callous, through "Max uses Jean Bipolar disorder against stacey by suggesting to Dot that it a hereditary condition, so Stacey could end up passing it on to her own kids, if she has any", explains Jake This greatly concerns Dot, and helps Max try to dispel the Branning family"s engagement".

However, the very individual Max had wrapped around his little finger for months is now the one he cant manipulate - Stacey.
The Bride to Be had her fill of the ageing casanova, and spurs his plea to reconsider the engagement. With his ideas running out, Max makes a shock proposal.

He love stacey- that is what i believe, anyway - so he ask her to run away from the square with him", reveals Jake. "I think he really means it too. Away from walford and their families, I reckon Stacey and Max would make a good couple. Theyre similar creatures. Its a shame that they cant have an conventional relationship".

While she was once head over heels with Max, Stacey love is no more, and she rebuffs him, vowing to marry Bradley.
So the question is Are Max"s feelings for Stacey deep enough to push him to finally confess all to his oblivious wife and son. in a last desperate attempt to be with her

I think theres a long way to go before that teases Jake. The storyline is going to run for a bit longer, with more surprises along the way. Personally i cant wait till everyone finds out - the devastation it cause will make for great television".

[slater girl]

Bradley Branning is set out to try and impress Stacey next week - by gettting a makeover. He enroles the help of Roxy to give him an image overhaul:

Spoiler

He looses his suited-and-booted look for a 'street' image
Loads of hair-gel, Bradley starts wearing a oversized hooder in cream to spice up bradley and stacey sex life in the bedroom, which will leave the stallholder speechless.

Spoiler

the name 'Stacey' tattooed on his arm!





Roxy is set to take Bradley under her wing when it comes to needing advice.

[StarsOfCCTV]

The image of Bradders in that makeover is hilarious :rotfl: :rotfl:

[slater girl]

It was really good tonight, stacey was in a bad mood as usual and was horrible to bradley for no reason at all as they discussed wedding plans. What is the matter with stacey tonight she was really nasty to him like she reckons bradley is second best or something.

I reckon stacey may feels guilty, that is what i could tell tonight, she did not want max near her, did you noticed that she moved away from him when max sat at number 23 with bradley there.

I think she is afraid of bradley having a physical relationship with her right now as the affair is hanging over her head, and stacey even refused max's help with wedding plans, i think stacey does not want max involved in their wedding plans full stop because of her guilt of what her and max has done to bradley and tanya if they ever find out what they have done. Bradley also picked up on her mood pretty quick and said if she does not want to be with him or fancy him just tell him, i feel bradley knows their is something wrong but don't know what it is.

Stacey did not look happy at all tonight about the wedding, as she is far more interested in the gossip in the square really with phil and stella.

Phil was great tonight and peggy, great acting from all the cast, Mo was still intersted in the gossip in the square really like a nosey busybody wanting to know the facts.

Tanya asks Stacey to rush her to hospital as she thinks she maybe miscarrying her baby, which Stacey does. Stacey is bothered by this because she feels it shouldn't be her comforting Tanya especially after having an affair with her hubby. However, the two girls bond but on Max's arrival causes a shift in atmosphere.

Tanya invites Bradders and Stace to dinner and organises a surprise photographer to take family pictures as a present for Maxy Million; which as you can imagine will cause some embarressment.

Spoiler Chat with Lacey Turner & Charlie Clements at the Inside Soap Awards 2007 Found at Eastenders Alternatives website forum
Interview chat originally from Ananova.com

Our Enders' Wedding Chat

The stage is set for one of the most talked about TV weddings of the year.

Will it finally be a happy ending for EastEnders' Stacey and Bradley?

Well, we'd love to know the answer to that too.

Because we need to know whether to dust off our wedding hats.

So, who better to ask than the two peeps themselves, Lacey Turner (Stacey Slater) and Charlie Clements (Bradley Branning)?

We caught up with them at the 2007 Inside Soap Awards in Camden, London.

The duo were all smiles after scooping the best couple award, and Lacey was also named best actress.

Given their winnings, you'd think they'd be so happy they could let slip some nuptial natter.

When asked for a small snippet, Charlie told us: "I can't tell you too much, obviously..."

OK, but what about something small?

To which he coyly replied: "Her dress is very nice."

Which was followed by Lacey's remark: "And very tight!"

Fret not though, as Charlie went on to say: "Certain things happen as they tend to do in EastEnders, but you'll have to watch and find out."

Trust us, we'll be glued.

Chatting about her character, Lacey told us: "I love everything about her, the fact that she just goes out there and says exactly what she wants, and does exactly what she wants. I wish I could be like that in some senses."

Right now, we're counting the calendar days to see what happens...





I wonder if the something small is that Stacey is expecting bradley's baby as lacey mentioned about her wedding dress being tight before the affair is revealed and stacey finds out she is pregnant a week before hand or something as that would be a major twist, for a quick spoiler if this is correct as the something small must be a baby possibly.

[soapbubble]

There isn't a mention of something small! It was the interviewer asking for a small bit of information.

The pregnancy thing might happen though, who knows in soapland :confused:

[parkerman]

I wonder if the something small is that Stacey is expecting bradley's baby

Or, more likely, Max's baby.

Didn't they make a point earlier on about Stacey and Bradley NOT having sex?

[Siobhan]

I wonder if the something small is that Stacey is expecting bradley's baby

Or, more likely, Max's baby.

Didn't they make a point earlier on about Stacey and Bradley NOT having sex?

can't be Max's baby.. she hasn't slept with him since July!!

[parkerman]

If there's a small bump just showing now, July sounds about right to me.

[Joanne]

Do we know the actual date of the wedding?

[Siobhan]

Do we know the actual date of the wedding?

Not 100% sure but I have heard or read that Nov 1st is the date

[Joanne]

Don't want to give anything away but if it is Nov 1st then look at today's Webcam excerpt from episode to be aired on Nov 26th.

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Is anyone else getting slightly bored of the Max/Bradley/Stacey rubbish, i can't wait till this is over it has gone on for over 6 months now and that is far to long

[Pinkbanana]

Oh well the whole sorry storyline will soon be over...:cheer:

I cant wait for it all to come out now, as peeps have said, its been going on too long! I just think its sad what will happen when it does come out, I like Max, Tanya and the girls together...they really are believeable as a family unit. I dont particular care for Bradders and Stacey as a couple anymore, they ruined that pairing last year with the dreadful abortion storyline.:thumbsdow

[Siobhan]

PB I agree.. I don't care for them as a couple anymore... they don't seem to go together as they did in the beginning... Stacey has changed and she seem more focused on ruin max and Bradley turned into a love sick puppy who can't see what Stacey is doing.. the sooner this is over the better.

Does anyone know if the affair starts back up again cause I was reading spoilers and it said stacey tells max the affair is over.. wasn't it over in July????

[Florijo]

I hate this storyline. It's ruined all three characters. I used to like Max and Stacey but she is just a selfish slapper and he is a dirty old git! :sick:

They have played this out far too long. Hopefully the fallout gives as some decent drama and the characters involved can be saved.

[Ruffed_lemur]

I hate this storyline. It's ruined all three characters. I used to like Max and Stacey but she is just a selfish slapper and he is a dirty old git! :sick:

I don't think it's ruined the characters. I think that Max and Stacey love each other, just don't know if it will work out.

[Florijo]

I can't see how it could work out and have all of them still living in the square. I love Max, Tanya, Abi and Lauren as a family and this will destroy them.

[Dutchgirl]

Is it just me or is anyone wondering where they would live if they get married?

[parkerman]

At the Slaters?

Or maybe they could buy a nice house in the suburbs...:)

Friday 19th October

When Bradley's mum Rachel turns up he's happy for her to take over the wedding arrangement....but Stacey isn't! And when Rachel later jokes that Stacey should be careful of Max because he has a eye for the ladies it hits a raw nerve...Looks like Rachel's not going to be a popular mother-in-law!

[Florijo]

Is anyone else hoping they don't get married and she never sees Bradley/Max again. When Stacey is away from Max/Bradley, she is like a different character. I loved her when she is with the other Slaters and when she was sticking up for Sean against Chelsea. That is the Stacey I like.

I agree, IMO the chemistry between her and Bradley has gone, and I am very bored of the STAX affair. I hope they don't get married and Bradley finds another girl to love.

[sean slater]

Seen the spoilers for christmas! lol.

I do worry about Bradley and Stacey. They were such a good couple. There was none of this stupid 'settling' business. Stacey really loved him! Now the relationship she had with Max has made it awkward.

I really hope that Stacey can fall in love with Bradley again properly. Like she did before.

There's a picture of Bradley and Stacey together at a Dr Who Convention in today's sun. The picture is from scenes to be shown early next year.

If they do split up Christmas Day it won't be for long.

They will get back together... Bradley did say that he didn't want to hear what happen in the past, he didn't want to know so he can't go back on that plus in the wedding video, Stacey clearly rejects Max.. it stopped when Max when away in July and she hasn't started it back up.. At no time did she see both Max and Bradley at the same time...

That's true. I'm sure they are in with a chance. It was Max cheating on Tanya not Stacey on Bradley. Bradley knew about the married man she was seeing, just not his identity and he said he didn't want to know either.

Anyway I just read an article on Steven and Stacey and however childish Stacey was when she tried it on with Max to get back at Bradley she is such an incredibly brave woman. I know Steven doesn't intend to kill Stacey and that he doesn't hurt her (he saw what happened to Jane last time he tried to do himself in) but it was just so brave of Stacey or at least it is brave of Stacey as it hasn't happened yet to stop Steven killing himself and in such a horrible way. From the sound of it she doesn't tell Bradley about this which is unsurprising as it is not her secret to tell and I'm glad she takes Steven under her wing though Bradley's annoyed and that she tells Ian what Steventried to do. Though they are rivals it looks like she is genuinely conceerned at his behaviour which is why she tails him to the arches. Stacey should get a medal - she's had a lot of eperuience dealing with her mum's mental illness and Sean's problems and hopefully when Stax comes out Steven will support her.

lol Every post of yours features Steven in it!!! Even if the thread is not about him, you manage to include him in it somewhere!!! Bless, you do like to talk about young Steven...:)

[Lizzie Brookes]

Lol. Yeah I do like talking about young Steven. Well yes, Steven is a brilliant charecter and Aaron a brilliant actor and you never tire of watching Steven scenes but that's just a coinicidence, that I mentioned Steven in "every" post. I wouldn't have mentioned Steven in this thread if Stacey wasn't going to try and save him which is really good and courageous of her.

[Siobhan]

But this is about Bradley and Stacey and there loads of Threads on Steven where you can post about him and his scenes with anyone in EE.. Please try kept this to Bradley and Stacey only.. it will go off topic

[Perdita]

I am sure that I have read somewhere (don't remember where :wall: ) that they do get divorced but the writers might have changed their minds once they read how much we all want them to stay together. With regards to Stacey and Max happening when Stacey was not with Bradley - I am not sure I would be able to forget and forgive so quickly if I was to find out that my partner has cheated on me with my parent :angry: Does not matter much whether we had separated or not, I mean they were not apart for more than 5 minutes before Stacey got off with Max. :eek:

[Lizzie Brookes]

That's true. I apologise. I was just amazed at how brave Stacey is. Anyway back to Stacey and Bradley - I'm sure Bradley will eventually forgive Stacey. As for Max he'd be lucky if Bradley ever speaks to him again.

[Florijo]

I hope they do work through it. It will take a while but it would be refreshing for a couple to work through an issue and make the marriage work.

Aw bless her little heart, she is smitten with young Steven, she just can't help herself can you sweetheart :D

[CrazyLea]

Usually I'd agree, but I just don't think Stacey deserves forgiveness especially from Bradley. I mean, it was his dad, not just some fella down the road or somthing. I just personally don't see how either of them should be forgiven.

[Lizzie Brookes]

Aw bless her little heart, she is smitten with young Steven, she just can't help herself can you sweetheart :D

She's not "smitten" with Steven - she's married to Bradley remember - she cares about Steven and realises that he has problems and has given him her friendship which is really nice of her and she'll need a friend because I'm sure Bradley will probably walk out on finding out about Stax and Steven won't judge her.

I think Horny Holly (Kath) was referring to you, and not Stacey! lol

[Lizzie Brookes]

No good referring to me. I'm gay. I have sympathy for Steven and I'm glad Stacey was there for him though obviously what he did to Ian and family was wrong since he put everyone through so much worry while knowing all the time where Ian was. Anyway - back to Stacey and Bradley - Bradley did look a bit shocked didn't he? In that trailer I mean. Tanya just looked gutted. Stacey and Bradley are so well suited and I don't think they should throw their marrisge away just because of Max - from what I read Stacey and Max agree the past is truly the past.

I only said Stacey was very brave on Thursday/Friday which she was. Anyway - Stacey and Bradley - I think it will take some time for Bradley to come to terms with this. He knows his dad is a "cheater" but he never dreamed his dad would pick his girlfriend. When he said "Why him?" I thought he was saying "Why did you have to choose Max?" but he was talking about Jim. I wonder how Dot, Charlie, Mo etc will react. At least its better than Den/Zoe. Den was 60 or something. At least Max ios only 40.

[Pinkbanana]

No good referring to me. I'm gay. Well you do seem to go on about him an awful lot, so I can understand why Kath and others think that!!!
I have sympathy for Steven and I'm glad Stacey was there for him though obviously what he did to Ian and family was wrong since he put everyone through so much worry while knowing all the time where Ian was. The shooting was accidental I agree and he was unwell but still he has to live with what he's done and take some kind of responsibility for his actions.

I do think this should be kept a Steven free thread, if possible - there are other threads to post in! This is a Bradders and Stace one....:)

[Lizzie Brookes]

Fair enough - so d'you reckon Bradley and Tanya will support each other once Stax comes out? I think so. Did you see the BBC3 programme about affairs? In it they discussed Bracey - that's the first time Stacy has had a really solid relationship with anyone and they had that romantic candleit dinner thing and Stacey refused the wine because that time she didn't want to be drunk and so it was much more special. That programme was really good and though I understand why Stacey turned to Max Bradley di have everry right to split with her after she showed him up and it was a bit childish of her to come onto Max - but she's young. Max should have shown more responsibility.

[Lizzie Brookes]

Well Stacey did tell Bradley she did a terrible thing and some day Bradley would find out what a horrible person she really was and she hoped he could forgive her. Stacey may eventually be forgiven but i bet Bradley will be out for Max's blood. lol. Max had better watch out.

[DaVeyWaVey]

I do think Bradley and Tanya will become a lot closer once the Stax affair comes out. I can also see people in line to slap/punch Max one - Bradley, Sean, Tanya, Jean...and i'm sure Dot and Jim will have something to say as well.

I just hope Stacey doesn't get off lightly. Stacey shouldn't be eliminated from blame just because Max is a lot older than her and he should have took responsibility by saying "no" to Stacey when she tried it on in the first place.

[Lizzie Brookes]

True - She was as much to blame as he was. Max didn't exactly drag her to that hotel or wherever it was they went on his birthday. Sean was still annoyed at his sister though furious with Max - I mean it was a bit supid to come onto a married man to spite a man who split up with her. I mean hy? What's the point and she never really thought about how much she was hurting Tanya by it. There was a time when Max reminded her thatif they got caught they would hurt a lot of people and Stacey's reply was "So long as we don't get caught" which shos that she didn't think of how it would hurt not just Bradley but Tanya, the girls - everyone.

[Joanne]

What was Tanya and Stacey's relationship like when the affair first started? From what I can remember Max followed Stacey home to calm her down after a row or incident in the pub and they kissed (possibly more) in the kitchen. Was this the night that Stacey slapped Tanya, or it may have been the other way round.

This storyline has been going on for such a long time I can't remember what started it!

Well Bradley had this party at work. He lied and pretended that guests were not allowed. Stacey found out and went anyway and showed him up sohe finished with her. She started drinking and smashed up his car. Max found her and took her back to the Slaters to reason with her. She tried it on with him but that time he said no, he was married. She told him he wouldn't be able to resist for long though and she was right - he was too weak willed - Jake's a good actor but Max is a bit of a jellyfish.

Stacey found herself falling for Max. She got jealous of Tanya. Tanya accidentally spilt alcohol on Stacey. Stacey demanded a proper apology and they argued. The argument turned into a fight and Tanya slapped Stacey. Max and Sean forced them apart. Max took her back to the Slaters where they kissed etc and then pretended he would leave Tanya to placate Stacey. Max then made Stacey apologise to Tanya, who accepted her apology.

Watched the omnibus today. I notice Bradley is very open with Stacey about how he thinks and feels etc - like Stacey said he's not a "man" man whereas Max is not close to anyone - not even Tanya and is never straight about anything - not even about how he thinks/feels - a typical "man" man.

[Florijo]

Both of them should get equal blame. They both lied and decieved people they knew and who loved them. Stacey never cheated on Bradley and Bradley's cruel dumping of her was the start of it all, but she never seemed to show much remorse when she and Max were groping in the loos, laughing when Bradley walked it.

Saying that though, I would want Max to suffer more than Stacey as he is far too cocky since Sean found out and I can't wait to see his whole life fall apart. I feel sorry for the girls. It isn't their fault their father is a slimey toad.

Right - sorry, must have misunderstood. Well i have to dash to see EastEnders in 5 minutes but it's true that EastEnders has become more exciting since Steven came, that Aaron is a fantastic actor, that I have sympathy and empathy for Steven and can identify a little with him and that he's become one of my favourite charecters despite what he did. I'm not "smitten" with him since I'm gay but yes I definitely think he's charismatic and has made EadtEnders doubly watchable. Anyway - I don't want to get off topic. I wonder how Bradley reacts to Stacey's new friendship with Steven and i read somewhere that Lauren finds out about Stax - what do you think she'll do?

[StarsOfCCTV]

I heard that on This morning I think..Lauren watches the dvd and then decides to show it to everyone. On Christmas day....:p

[Lizzie Brookes]

It's probably revenge then as Max won't let her see Peter but would Lauren think like that? She's only 13 and would she really want to mess up her mum and dad's marriage for some silly revenge or for a fling that was over ages ago? Doesn't Stacey find it a bt weird - her husband being her boss?

Lauren is a typical teenager who does not want her father to tell her who she can see and who she can't and these days teenager start having their first relationships with the other sex, not necessarily an intimate relationship though. :)
There are lots of husbands and wives working together where one spouse is the boss. It is bound to cause problems one day though. :lol:

[Siobhan]

Doesn't Stacey find it a bt weird - her husband being her boss?

why should she if she can handle it.. I was my boyf team leader for months and it wasn't weird for either of us... it is professional and you keep it that way

Suppose so.

[Lizzie Brookes]

Someone on the digital spy board said this:


If Stacey had just been sleeping with some random guy in the time they were broken up, then Bradley would have no right to be mad.But she didn't just sleep with a random guy. She slept with his dad.

Secondly, as Bradley first finds out by watching a DVD in front of his whole family. Which means that he'll be annoyed about being humiliated in front of his whole family (although obviously that's not necessarily Stacey's fault as she was not the one who put in the DVD)

Lastly, he sees her kissing her dad after their wedding. Stacey may have pulled back eventually, but she still reciprocated briefly. That's still cheating. And it may lead Bradley to wonder if Max and Stacey had been carrying on at it, while he and Stacey were together.

Therefore, I think Bradley has a right to be angry, even though his conduct to Stacey when they broke up was pretty terrible. I do think, Max, is more in the wrong than Stacey as he is married, and owed Bradley more consideration as his father. .

I actually think that hits the nail right on the head. I think Bradley will be angry with them both but at Max more than Stacey. He may eventually come to forgive Stacey I bet he'll always hate Max. Surely Bradley will see though that she fought Max off? I mean I know she responded a bit but then Tanya responded a bit to when Sean tried it on with her - and he tried it on about 5 times ast least - before pulling away.

[Florijo]

I agree with that. Bradley has every right to be furious. Anybody else and there wouldn't be an isssue here cos he knew about "Jerry" and they wern't together but this was his dad. I can't imagine how Bradley is going to feel - being betrayed by his own dad must be terrible. I doubt the relationship with Bradley will ever be repaired whatever Max says or does as it is all on tape - his own dad trying it on with his new wife.

I think Bradley will use his position on the market to make Stacey's life hell.

[Lizzie Brookes]

I wonder - Do they just see the kiss or do they see rthe whole scene? If they saw and heard everything Stacey and max said then they might be more angry at Max than Stacey because she remained true to Bradley by pulling away and then her speech to Max afterwards makes Max more in the wrong than Stacey or do they just see the kiss? I mean - to me it looked as though Max kissed her, she responded briefly and then pulled away and that is exactly what happened with Sean and Tanya. The thing is - if they saw Max kissing her and her pushing him off and that only - well does that prove she did have an affair with him or would it just look as though Max tried it on with her and she said no? Or would Bradley put two and two togegther anyway even if he only saw the kiss and didn't hear the conversation that followed and work out Max was Stacey's married man?

I read in the Soap News that Lauren gets angry when she sees Max and Stacey talking so she puts the DVD of evidence in an envelope addressed to Bradley and leaves it for him. After talking to Sean she changes her mind and puts it in the bin but Tanya thinks it is a present for Bradley and retrieves it and ironically Maxx gives it to Bradley thus sealing his own fate - I'm confused because i thought Max and Stacey had mved on from the affair so wouldn't their conversation be strictly father/daughter conversation?

[sean slater]

Yeah, Bradley definetely should be angry with Stacey. She's been very two faced throughout the entire thing. What with the relationship she's faked with Tanya and just lying to Bradley's face. Hope they do work it out though. They make a good couple. They have a special relationship. But I think Max has probably ruined that.

Hope they do work it out though. They make a good couple. They have a special relationship. But I think Max has probably ruined that.

I don't think her friendship with Tanya was completely faked though. She got a bit jealous of Tanya at one point and then she found it awkward when Abi and Lauren told her about the baby. She only found out about the pregnancy half way through the affair but whast she did was still wrong because even at the point when she wanted childish revenge on Bradley she never thought what it would do to Tanya and the girls which was quite selfish.

Well - Bradley knew about the maried man "Jerry" so I suppose he knew as much of the truth as she dared to say. Bradley only finds out bercause it is an uinfortunate requirement that on EastEnders everything comes out. Otherwise there are some things better not known. I can't he;p thinking Lauren behaves selfishlty too at first because if she watches the whole scene she will realise the affair is over obviously as Stacey is married to Bradley now and also why break her half brother's heart just to get spiteful revenge on her dad and for a fling that is long over just because he has a problem with her dating Peter?

[Florijo]

The thing is though to someone who doesn't have the insight we do, she might think the affair isn't over. If she sees them talking, even innocently, after watching that she may think it is still going on. Even though in the tape, Stacey makes it pretty clear it is over, Lauren could easily think otherwise.

Thats true - but does she have to break her big half brother's heart just because she is angry at her dad and Stacey? I mean - I can understand where Lauren's comming from and different people respond differently to different things. If it were me I'd head straight to the allotments and throw it in the fire and then bluff about having lost the DVD or else not put the affair on the DVD in the first place - but I can't help thinking that she should think about the impact this'll have on her mum and especially on Bradley.

[Florijo]

I think it is just her age and her anger and shock gets the better of her, plus seeing Max playing the perfect husband. She probably doesn't even think about the impact on Tan and Bradley and their complete humiliation at finding out about Stax infront of Dot, Mo, Charlie, Sean, Jack etc. I think that it very selfish of her. If she was that desparate for them to be exposed she could have found a way that wasn't in front of all those people. I imagine it will hit home when she sees their reactions and Tan chucking Max out. She does seem to have a change of heart beforehand but its all too late.

[becca0103]

I cant stand max he has been realy two faced if i were bradley i would kill max lol
Stacey did try to warn bradley but seans there to pick up the pieces for her who had bradley got? :( if i were bradley i would move far away from stacey. I read ages ago that Tanya and Bradly kiss but tanya realized that its sean she wants. Has anyone else read this? :)

[Florijo]

I haven't read anything about that but then I don't always get all the soap mags and stuff. I hope that doesn't happen. Bradley and Tanya would be so unrealistic for both of them. If she kisses anyone it will be Sean, and Sean only.

[Lizzie Brookes]

I knew Bradley/Tanya would never work. Both are too decent, neither is messed up and she is his stepmother and he her stepson. :nono:

If she sees them talking, even innocently, after watching that she may think it is still going on. Even though in the tape, Stacey makes it pretty clear it is over, Lauren could easily think otherwise.

I was just thinking about that again. Someone older than Lauren would probably see from the way they are talking that it is no longer an affair but back to father/daughter relation - there are always subtle clues - but even Lauren must know that nothing happened while Max was in Spain or while Stacey was on honeymoon.

[Lizzie Brookes]

Ok Stax reveal was spectacular though mum and I are in agreement that Lauren shouldn't have taped the affair without knowing the full story and that Tanya shouldn't have plucked the DVD out of the bin because you never know why it has been thrown away. I still think its a waste because the affair is over but unfortunately in EastEnders its a requirement that these things come out. I am glad Sean and Steven are standing by Stacey. As for Max - well he deserves what's happening to him but I still can't forget that despite betraying Bradley he is a good father so I am glad Jack is there for him and hopefully Phil will be a good mate?

[Siobhan]

that Tanya shouldn't have plucked the DVD out of the bin because you never know why it has been thrown away.

Tanya didn't know it was thrown away, it looked like it fell into the bin by accident as all of lauren's other presents were on the edge of the desk near the bin

[Florijo]

I don't think Max is good father. He only seems sorry cos he has been caught. I think Steven should butt out as well. Support Stacey by all means but what he said to Bradley was just cruel.

[Siobhan]

Even after been found out, Max continued to lie!!! And yes, steven jibe to Bradley was well out of order.. there was 2 of them in this affair and both Max and Stacey are at fault!! Stacey for starting it and Max for not put a stop to Stacey nonsense at the very beginning!!

[Kirsty :]]

I think Bradleys becoming a bit darker these days.. I suppose he can't really be blamed for it though can he?

I do think though that if Bradley didn't turn horrible and sling Stacey for Lidia it wouldn't have started, the way he treated her was bad about the baby and that, but then when they got back together and even before that either Stacey or Max should have stopped the affair. :)

[slater girl]

you know Bradley and Stacey will be at that Dr Who convention well it doesn't look like they are getting back together Bradley going to hand Stacey divorce papers there! and this was in today's soaplife mag!
As its has got pictures of Stacey crying while holding the papers! it was Bradley's revenge! instead of handing Valentine's card he handed her divorce papers instead.


I am so upset, i love to see bradley and stacey back together as an couple, but it may not happen till further down the line now

you know Bradley and Stacey will be at that Dr Who convention well it doesn't look like they are getting back together Bradley going to hand Stacey divorce papers there! and this was in today's soaplife mag!
As its has got pictures of Stacey crying while holding the papers! it was Bradley's revenge! instead of handing Valentine's card he handed her divorce papers instead.


I am so upset, i love to see bradley and stacey back together as an couple, but it may not happen till further down the line now

The were not divorce papers but he returned a photo of the two, a love letter she had written to him, a Valentines Card and his wedding ring. Looks like he can't forgive and forget. :( My heart went out to Stacey.

He shouldn't have let his dad ruin his relationship with Stacey. He knew about the "married man" - all but his identity and it was outside of Stacey and Bradley's relationship - he himself told Sean that she dumped the married man for him. He should have realised that she was not as much to blame as Max was and it would have been so much better if he walked with Stacey into Jack's flat and said something like "You thought me and Stacey would split up over this dad. Well you are wrong. I won't let your affair with her ruin my relationship with her" and then went somewhere else with Stacey out of respect for Tanya.

It developed into more than just an affair for Stacey, she fell in love with Max and if he had left Tanya at the time she told him so, she would not have gone back with Bradley, let alone have married him. Did she really fall for Bradley again or was it revenge again, this time on Max, that she went back to him? I can appreciate Bradley's anger about the fact it was his father that she had an affair with, I am sure he would be more forgiving if it had been some other older guy she had been with whilst they were separated. Somehow I still would like to see them get back together though :wub: :o

Yes but the married man was his dad. Not just some random married bloke. It is not something Bradley should be expected to gloss over just because he knew she was with a married man. If Stacey had a sister and Bradley had an affair with her, even if S/B were not together, you would not expect Stacey to just forgive and forget. It being his dad makes it more personnal. Also she kissed him on the wedding day. She did not stop it right away, and this was when they were now married.

I agree with that. Had Max not dumped her and legged it to Spain, she would never have gone with Bradley again. It was only really when she was dumped that she turned to Bradley again. I do believe she fell in love with Bradley again and truely wants Bradley now, but at the time she didn't.

From All about Soap latest issue in the back page

I read recently in all about soap that stacey and claire are going to fight for bradley in the next two weeks or so as it said on the back of all about soap

Love Rivals, Can Stacey stop Claire from getting her claws into Bradley?


This is meant to happen the day after the 4th March, stacey is still not over bradley and she will go head to head with claire in a battle for his affections as well as the love triangle coming up between her and steven and christian, that is what i have heard so far.
