Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

[parkerman]

You know you've made it when you're spammed by Apple.

[parkerman]

It's getting beyond a joke now. I think Ava needs to be put into detention for persistent truancy and made to write a hundred lines.

[flappinfanny]

like the trailers for next week. looks like a cracking week. :)

[tammyy2j]

Wow Lauren gets drunk one 1 vodka

[parkerman]

Lauren could get drunk on a glass of water!

[tammyy2j]

Lauren could get drunk on a glass of water!

Touché

Tommy Moon must be so intelligent for his age that he can understand what Michael was telling him hence Kat and Alfie getting so mad :p

[tammyy2j]

.

[Katy]

Lauren went a funny looking colour awful quickly!!

I did enjoy those scenes with the brannings though.

[megan999]

Because of the football tonight, EE is from 7.25pm to 7.55pm.

[JustJodi]

What about tomorrow night ( Friday) ???? Football too ??????

[Perdita]

Should be on at regular time, 8pm UK time

[tammyy2j]

Kirsty made an awful mess trying to hide the test and clean up the rubbish made it more obvious she was hiding something

When did Kirsty and Kat become so pally? It is none of Kat's business if Kirsty is preggers or not

[tammyy2j]

Part of me wishes the writers would kill off Lauren from the booze and be done with it now

[parkerman]

When did Kirsty and Kat become so pally? It is none of Kat's business if Kirsty is preggers or not

They've been pally for some time. Kat's known from the beginning that Kirsty is not pregnant. She has been telling her to "come clean" to Max all along. It's nothing new.

[lizann]

so long tanya off in a black cab, seems her and max have come full circle now and it is all over

[flappinfanny]

fridays ep can be described in one word 'superb.'

jo joyner will leave a gaping hole in the show. her partnership with jake wood has been nothing short of brilliant. i can only think of one more couple in soap land with that sort of chemistry, charity and cain in emmerdale.

[parkerman]

Powerful stuff last night and for once Eastenders were able to pull it off because in Jo Joyner and Max Wood they have two of the best actors we've ever seen in any soap. Plus great acting from the youngsters Jacqueline Jossa and Lorna Fitgerald as well. Jo will be sadly missed as will the interactions between all of the family but in another way it is good she went now because it's all ended on a high (from the acting and story points of view) and they've not been allowed to drift on aimlessly with poor stories and ridiculous plots.

If only Eastenders could do this all the time and find actors like those!

[parkerman]

You don't want to read all that again!

[megan999]

Yesterday's episode made me cry:crying:Such good acting from everybody. I shall really miss Tanya and Max's dynamics together, but as Parkerman said, they have come full circle and good to end on a high. However, I hope they bring back Lauren after her recovery in the clinic, and don't even think about replacing the actress! I still think that Kirsty could have a future with Max, albeit a rocky one, after she becomes second best again after the love of his life, Tanya has gone. Not a big fan of Carl at the moment, but he certainly has a way with words!

[tammyy2j]

.

[tammyy2j]

I was quite disappointed with Tanya's exit tbh

I do agree great acting from Jake and Jo

[flappinfanny]

i was pleased she put lauren first.

[flappinfanny]

poor jean. :(

[flappinfanny]

good episode again tonight. nice mixture of light and grey. loved the scenes with shirl and jean in the minute mart. :)

[tammyy2j]

Jean was very rude to Patrick but not Ian yet he was running around loads

[megan999]

I thought the scene with Poppy and Alice in the pub was too long.
Looks like Jean is losing the plot again, but Gillian does a good job portraying her.

[lizann]

love mikey moon's talking, his use of big words he seems eton educated :p

kirsty's hair looked better up more tamed

quiet tired now of jean's constant neurotic behaviour

[lizann]

duplicated again!!!! :(

[tammyy2j]

So Shirley wants revenge on Ian now yet she never took her revenge on Phil

[lizann]

duplicated again!!!! :(

such a big word are you from eton too :p

[flappinfanny]

such a big word are you from eton too :p

sadly not. :(

[flappinfanny]

[flappinfanny]

had to smile at kim in thursday episode when she walked past scarletts with all the water rushing out of the door, chips in one hand and a bottle of something in the other, slightly wasted, she looked, shrugged and walked off. brilliant. :D

[megan999]

So Michael's plan is to make Janine fall in love with him again:hmm:He's nuts. Getting tired of his and Janine's fight over Scarlett.

[parkerman]

Glad to see Ava is not rushing back to her job and spending all day at home or in the cafe. Send round the truant officer!

[lizann]

I am lizann. I worry about all those poor children in whatever school it is she is supposed to be the head of having to go without their headteacher and I am also worried about the amount of work she is putting on to her deputy. I am also worried that the Eastenders scriptwriters don't have a clue!

[tammyy2j]

Oh no Sharon and Denny is back

[parkerman]

Oh no Sharon and Denny is back

:sick:

[lizann]

ian couldn't treat his burn in the restaurant he would have water and a first aid kit there

[flappinfanny]

he would also have carl there. :(

[tammyy2j]

The show is really gone downhill not one storyline interesting

[flappinfanny]

the allotments seem small in walford. jean wont be able to grow much in that little patch. :D

[parkerman]

Good to see Ava not rushing back to work.

However, on the plus side, Winston spoke. :cheer:

[Brucie]

Ava = boring. Ava + Sam = VERY BORING!!!! Another silly coupling carrying out a teen-like romance with absolutely no requirement to bother working for a living.

[Glen1]

Good to see Ava not rushing back to work.

However, on the plus side, Winston spoke. :cheer:
Ok Parkerman I don't mind being the patsy,what did Winston say this time,
P.S. You did the beaches gag last time ! lol

[lizann]

he would also have carl there. :(

when carl left or did ian run home and leave carl there

[lizann]

he would also have carl there. :(

[flappinfanny]

He said, "Looking good, Man."

[lizann]

[lizann]

[flappinfanny]

not really. would ian revert back to his old self after what he has been through. all the good work they have done on ian's character since his return has been flushed down the lavy. :( :( :(

although very predictable, i did find the speed dating scenes funny. love kim's laugh. would dot walk in the eastend with a carry bag full of money? :(

[flappinfanny]

..............................duplicated :( .................................................. ............

[flappinfanny]

[flappinfanny]

[flappinfanny]

soap quote of the week has to be won by eastenders and ian, when he found out bobby's girl friend was tiff.

Ian: “You don’t want to be held back by a foghorn in a puffa jacket!” :D

lauren looking tanned from her short short time in a rehab clinic

[flappinfanny]

i think jac jossa is competing with michelle keegan for the best tangoed tan. :D

nice to see michael lumsden (alastair lloyd from the archers ) in a little cameo.

[flappinfanny]

.........................deleted.................. ...................

[tammyy2j]

Poor Tyler, I felt sorry for him, I wanted Whitney to go with him

[JustJodi]

She actually looked NATURALLY TAN not ORANGE LIKE Whit and Sharon,,Lauren looked lovely..

[JustJodi]

He was torn,,,, poor guy,, well at least he left in a SPORTS CAR not a BLACK CAB

[lizann]

way too much tan for someone in a clinic for a few short weeks

[tammyy2j]

Surely Lauren would have at least to stay a month in her clinic/hospital she was at death's door before she left with liver failure nearly and now she is back healthy and tanned, the clinic/hospital must be in the some sunny exotic Island :p and to think Tanya sold her business and up sticks and moved so Lauren could stay in a clinic/hospital for about two weeks

I would think after last week Whitney would try and see an counsellor

[kayuqtuq]

Lauren's stint in rehab must be the shortest ever.

tanya is the type of mother who would drag lauren back to the clinic but no return after her lame exit

LOL'd at Jean talking French and her with Ian

[flappinfanny]

the look on michael's face at the end of the ep was priceless. :)

[lizann]

so none of jim's kids or grandkids would go see him on his birthday but went to a party lauren organises for him yet he is a home

[JustJodi]

Lauren's stint in rehab must be the shortest ever.

Lindsay Lohan never stayed longer than a month eiter LOL

[tammyy2j]

Dot calling Mas Mr. Masmod was funny

[flappinfanny]

good episodes so far this week. liked the scenes in the r&r with joey and carl. The ending on tuesday with a distraught lauren was beautifully played by jac jossa. a real talent.

[megan999]

The ending on tuesday with a distraught lauren was beautifully played by jac jossa. a real talent.[/QUOTE]I agree, I am enjoying her acting and her storyline.

[lizann]

how bad and cringey was the hardmen scene in the r and r club and the new fella from hollyoaks looked pervy in the counselling office with lauren

[flappinfanny]

nice scenes with lauren and the counsellor. had to smile at the banjo. :)

the episode was only slightly spoiled by the hammy sound effects for the face slap. stage slaps don't work. i think you have to go for it and do a real slap. anyone remember eileen in corrie giving steve a good slap round the mush. i thought he may have brain damage. :D

Yes, the stand off in the club was laughable, and that new guy with Lauren looks creepy.
Now I understand why Carl doesn't want to let Kirsty go, they had been together for years previously. Has it been said exactly why he was put in prison in the first place??

[flappinfanny]

soap line of the week goes to eastenders and Bianca and Kat looking for love in the personal ads.

bianca: ' must be willing to look after my 90 year old muvver and her 8 pussies.'

kat : '8 pussies' :)

[flappinfanny]

[megan999]

What happened to Cindy then? was she supposed to have died in childbirth whilst in prison or something? why was she in prison? sorry, all that happened before I started watching EE! :)

[JustJodi]

What happened to Cindy then? was she supposed to have died in childbirth whilst in prison or something? why was she in prison? sorry, all that happened before I started watching EE! :) I wanna know too,, and whose kid is this CINDY any way ..and why oh why is Ian such an idiot,, it is obvious that neithe Peter nor Lucy want her there...

[JustJodi]

love kirsty's shoes :)
but the dress was a bit too flashy for the likes of Walford LOL

[flappinfanny]

i thought she looked a lot better than she has. more of a slapper with a bit of class with shoes carrie bradshaw would die for. :)

[Perdita]

From Wiki:

Cindy Williams is the daughter of Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) and Nick Holland (Dominic Taylor). She is the half-sister of Steven, Peter and Lucy Beale. She was played by Ella Wortley and Cydney Parker, and during her return on 14 September 2007 she was played by child actress Eva Sayer.[28] On 18 June 2013, it was announced that Cindy would be returning to EastEnders on 20 August, with Mimi Keene taking over the role.[29]
Cindy Sr gives birth to Cindy while in prison for arranging the attempted murder of Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt), her ex-husband and the father of Lucy and Peter. Cindy has never known either of her parents; Nick cuts all contact with Cindy Sr after finding out she tried to have Ian killed, and Cindy Sr dies after the birth due to an embolism. After her mother's death, Cindy is taken to Devon to live with her maternal grandmother Bev Williams (Diane Langton) and aunt Gina (Nicola Cowper). Ian and Steven meet Cindy when they go to Devon for Cindy Sr's funeral. Ian suggests naming her after her late mother as a mark of respect. Bev initially thinks she is too old to look after Cindy and suggests that she live with Ian and her half-siblings. Reluctant at first, Ian agrees, but Gina wants Cindy to stay with her and Bev has second thoughts about giving her up. Ian and Gina briefly quarrel over Cindy before Ian decides that she will be best off living with Gina and Bev. In 2007, Ian thinks that Gina is sending messages to Lucy pretending to be Cindy, so he goes to visit her. When he arrives, Gina reintroduces Cindy to Ian.
In 2013, after Peter returns to Walford from living in Devon for a while, he refuses to speak to Cindy on the phone. She then turns up unexpectedly, breaking into Ian's house.

cindy who was ian's wife tried to have ian killed so that is why she was in prison

[flappinfanny]

peter :p

[tammyy2j]

Did we ever see Peter in any scenes before with Jay and Dexter and now he goes on holiday with them and Lola and Abi, looks like him and Lola could be getting together

[tammyy2j]

Could Tara be Lola's mother, she seemed very interested in Lola and Lexi

[megan999]

peter :p
Peter:wub:
Anybody else finding Abi really annoying at the moment?
That Tara lady is very mysterious. What is her motive? As Tammy said, she sounds like she wants to get to know Lola and Lexi. On the other hand, Billy could do with some luck with his love life. I still think that him and Jean should have got together ages ago!! Why is Alfie interfering with Jean's relationship with Ollie. It's nothing to do with him. :angry:It should be up to her who she tells about her mental illness.

[JustJodi]

Could Tara be Lola's mother, she seemed very interested in Lola and Lexi




we really do not know much about Lola's mom do we ???? all we know is that her dad is dead ( Billy's son ) but nothing was ever said about her mom... ???? Does any one recall any mention of Lola's mom ????

[JustJodi]

I think Lola and Peter would be a cute couple,. how many of you wanna slap the pooo outta Abi??? I think she just missed her period due to all the stress she was under, doing revisions and her exams plus the hoopla with Lauren, she may not even be preggers. Ok what happened to the MOOLA ???? Dexter and Jay better find that moola quick cos they sure as heck do not wanna show up at the Arches without the 10 grand,, who do U guys think took the money ??? If I bet on some one I bet it was Cindy

[tammyy2j]

my money's on (sorry for the pun) that girl dexter had the hots for. i wonder if its a scam between her and the dad who bought the car?

[megan999]

I think Lola and Peter would be a cute couplehttp://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/256xn/p01fg231.jpgI find Peter more attractive than Joey. I agree with Flappinfanny, that Kitty and her Dad are suspicious.....

[flappinfanny]

peter's nice, but joey is still my number one walford boy. :p

[flappinfanny]

ben hardy gave a good solid performance tonight, much better. peter is growing on me, perhaps a bit too posh though. lola's reaction was a bit odd?

He is a decent actor alright I just cant take him as Peter Beale

Is there a new romance on the cards also for Kim and Billy, has Kim seen Denise with Ian and want a ordinary Joe so too :p

[flappinfanny]

possibly, yeap i wonder. i could hear the cogs turning in kims head tonight. that would be interesting.

i didn't think i would, but i've enjoyed 'carry on camping' week in eastenders. i think (i hope) eastenders is now turning a corner. september looks promising with the return of sam womack. fingers crossed.

[flappinfanny]

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

[lizann]

so cindy took the money

[flappinfanny]

we have seen a different side to kim this week. i know she isn't everybody's cup of tea, i have always been a fan of tameka empson. nice scenes with billy.

[megan999]

I too have enjoyed this week's episodes. And it will get better, I hope.
I didn't suspect Cindy. Good twist.
Poor Jean.I hope things will work out for her in the end.

[lizann]

oh god that crash was brutal so much hype for a crap crash and storyline

[flappinfanny]

i am one for sticking up for eastenders, but the crash ep was a none event. its was piffy. a million pounds? perhaps they have spent more on the helicopter and rescue scenes for thursday's instalment. i bet ds are having a field day.

eastenders don't do stunts, or rather they shouldn't. leave it to emmerdale, they do it so much better. eastenders needs to get back to basics, nobody does a reveal like them. they need to go back to good old fashioned story telling. no more stunts!!!!!!!!!!! :(

[tammyy2j]

Did Carl open Phil's seatbelt and that is why he flew out the front window?

[megan999]

Cr@ppy crash, blink and you miss it!
I preferred Lauren's car crash when she drove Derek's car into the shop.
Looking forward to tonight's episode now, and how Carl's evil plan will work out. He is growing on me.
Interesting theory, Tammy, about the seatbelt. Something definitely happened there for Phil to get catapulted onto the bonnet!!

why was max arrested? for having a party and enjoying himself :p stupid soap cops no evidence

[flappinfanny]

no point in stating the obvious on the aftermath of the car crash. i'll concentrate on the positives. nice scenes with kat and ollie. jessie wallace was very good tonight. gillian wright as always gave a tip top performance. i do hope jean and ollie get a happy ending. thought billy was also very good in this ep.

naughty. :)

yes the stunt scenes were awful. a waste of money. eastenders need to get back to basics. i think under the new producer this can happen.

the show isn't as bad as many say, there are negatives but there are also some positives. one of the best casts in soapland, its the writing that has let them down. a new team of script writers, some fresh ideas, keep away from stunts and bobs your uncle and fanny's your fanny.

So Ian is Carl's "witness"

[flappinfanny]

you really love the show :p

some body has got to. :heart:

good end to the week. makes up for the crash episodes. good scenes with roxy and alfie. really loving kat at the mo. jessie wallace just shines in every scene. looking forward to next week. :)

[flappinfanny]

you just knew ronnie would appear just before the duff duff's.

[flappinfanny]

a vast improvement in ee last night. lets hope this is ee on the road to recovery. :)

a superb figure and amazing share for coronation st last night (and only a mediocre set of episodes.) ee got over the 7 million mark, however there is a gap of 2 million between ee and corrie, yet there was a huge gap in quality. Hopefully the walford soap will continue with this quality and a proportion of the lost viewers will come back.

lets not kid ourselves, eastenders isn't going to over take coronation street in the ratings, but it would be nice to think they will get a bit closer.

Sorry but Emmerdale should be second and Hollyoaks third imho

Sorry but Emmerdale should be second and Hollyoaks third imho

i disagree, emmerdale with its quality deserves to be in first position, but this will never happen. :(

p.s hollyoaks is really enjoyable (a bit like a chocolate cake you shouldn't indulge in but just can't help yourself) but i can't see hollyoaks moving from 5th position unfortunately.

[flappinfanny]

duplicated again!!

[megan999]

I'm glad they've brought back Ronnie's character. Samantha is a great actress, and her and Jessie Wallace (Kat) scenes together will be great!!:cheer:

[tammyy2j]

I wish EE has done a two hander episode with only Ronnie and Kat

Why is Max still in jail, did he not get bail?

I do think Sadie is Jake's wife

[tammyy2j]

Ian should be honest and admit Carl is blackmailing and bullying him, he will lose Denise and Lucy again when the truth comes out

[flappinfanny]

I wish EE has done a two hander episode with only Ronnie and Kat

yeap i agree. however lovely scenes with sam and jessie.

Max DID get bail,but then Carl was taunting Max and winding him up so Max punched Carl in the face so he got re-arrested!

Would be a great reveal if Sadie WAS Jake's wife! Wonder what Lauren would do then?:searchme:

[tammyy2j]

It is shame Michael dies as him and Ronnie have a nice spark of chemistry

[lizann]

so ronnie taking tommy was the reason kat went off with derek

lol'd at drunk kim and mikey moon tonight so good lines from them, denise has become a bore since she got with ian

max went looking for ian during his homeless interesting storyline and now ian is lying to keep max in prison

joey had his tongue on the floor when he saw rosie/ronnie :p

[flappinfanny]

joey had his tongue on the floor when he saw rosie/ronnie :p

i had my tongue on the floor when i saw joey. :p

we have been spoilt this week, by friday we will have had 6 episodes and what a week so far. its amazing how a show can be transformed by the return of a character. sam womack is superb. credit to eastenders, lets hope the standard can be maintained!:hmm:

[tammyy2j]

I loved Michael's line that Kat was upstairs doing her face as in putting on her make up so she would be a few days and I love that he calls them Kathleen and Veronica :p

[megan999]

I cannot stand michael!!!:sick:Really enjoyed last night's double bill. The chemistry between Kat and Alfie was still there, I thought they'd end up kissing! :wub:The actresses who play Ronnie and Roxy are so believeable as sisters. Said it once and I'll say it again, so good to have samantha womack back :D Denise should open her eyes to that worm Ian! Lizann was right about Max being a good mate to Ian when he was ill, and now Ian is stabbing him in the back.
What did Carl say to Max on the phone, that he was gonna harm Kirsty unless he told her he tampered with Carl's brakes? But Max must know Carl is bluffing - Carl would never hurt Kirsty, the love of his life:p

another very good episode,we have been spoilt this week. loved kims line about being the middletons. :)

also the line about Zelda from terrahawks, very funny :D

[lizann]

when will peter cop on that cindy has phil's car money

[lizann]

the show needs grant mitchell back fast

[flappinfanny]

good episode to end the week. liked ronnie putting sharon in her place. a good week for the southern soap. can't wait till monday. :)

[tammyy2j]

Sam back as Ronnie has been good

[flappinfanny]

loved kat and roxy's remarks. 'essex' 'walford.' michaels grin is so funny. all in all an okish episode, not as good as last week, but decent.

[lizann]

a nice lovely happy exit for jean and ollie

[tammyy2j]

She truly deserved one

[tammyy2j]

Panto villain Carl is doing my head in

[flappinfanny]

enjoyed tuesday's episode. glad jean had a happy ending and nice she got julia's theme. gillian wright will be missed.

the only odd part of the episode were the scenes with ava. apart from that, tip top.:)

Wasn't there another footie team that Kat and Alfie were managers of, think it was the pub team?

[flappinfanny]

yeap thats right, it was when the kat shagger storyline was going on.

a disappointing episode. can't warm to sam. i don't think the sam/ava/dexter family unit works. it was better when it was just ava and dexter. i hope this storyline doesn't linger :(

ending on a positive, nice scenes with ronnie and roxy. :)

yes an another football team a few years before that

they seem to form a team and play one match whenever they need some excuse in the story line?

good idea peggy leaving a bottle of booze outside a house with kids

[flappinfanny]

peggy almost broke the 4th wall. you can only get away with that if you are miranda or mrs brown.

i thought peggy's return was tacky. babs has appeared, that's it, back to business next week. hopefully they can build on the previous week. i know michael french returns very soon, so hopefully after that no more returns.

memo to dtc, just get on with it. you've a great cast, use them wisely. back to basics.

how many may have missed babs final scene as they were turning over to the second corrie.

Was nice to see Peggy again, albeit briefly, but I didn't really think that the dialogue between her and Phil was very exciting, it just seemed to go round in circles.:readtheru They should of made her come back for Pat's funeral instead. Now that Jean has left who is going to find out what happened to Shirley ?:searchme:

I wanted her to come into the Vic and smack Carl and tell him get out of her pub :p

[lizann]

i was hoping the end scene was showing a captive shirley

peggy's return was not needed and pointless

denny and sharon need a slap both of them

[flappinfanny]

enjoyed tamwar and the sock puppet's and thought it was cruel but funny when michael burst tamwar's ballon. excellent timing and delivery by steve john shepherd.

[tammyy2j]

Sharon needs to take off to see Michelle and Vicky

[tammyy2j]

tuesday ep was pretty dull but there was a good scene with jay and dexter in the car.

[lizann]

such a boring episode bar david's return at the end

[flappinfanny]

------------------------------------------

[flappinfanny]

i couldn't stop laughing at morgan and tiff and the olives, so funny. :D

lovely scenes with aj and kamil. :)

[tammyy2j]

It really is time for Sharon and Denny to go, her return has been a disaster

[sarah c]

It really is time for Sharon and Denny to go, her return has been a disaster

surely his bad behaviour and lying has to building up to a storyline?

otherwise what does Sharon actually 'do? what is her purpose?

[sarah c]

It really is time for Sharon and Denny to go, her return has been a disaster

and Denny still needs a bloody good haircut!!!

I lol'd at him telling Mas about the injuries Derek gave him and good to see Mas stand up for himself and stay there with Carol

Naomi and her goons were awful, Lisa seemed drunk to me in her scenes

[tammyy2j]

[megan999]

I must be the only person not liking David Wicks return. I found Friday's episode boring, apart from Masood.

[flappinfanny]

[tammyy2j]

Phil believes Max tried to kill him, surprised he is so gullible

Why is Cindy Jnr so interested in knowing David?

[tammyy2j]

.

[flappinfanny]

great exchanges between ronnie and michael. very clever. :)

[flappinfanny]

i think the next couple of weeks are going to be really tough for the walford soap with aggressive scheduling from itv and their juggernaut soaps. emmerdale is on a roll at the mo.

[tammyy2j]

Am I the only person who thinks Alfie is being unreasonable and selfish, I know what Ronnie did was awful but she is Roxy's sister

[Kim]

Am I the only person who thinks Alfie is being unreasonable and selfish, I know what Ronnie did was awful but she is Roxy's sister

He is yeah. She was sentenced to 3 years in 2011 so if it didn't happen now it wouldn't be long before she did come out and want to regain contact with her sister. If it bothered him that Roxy would have contact with Ronnie, he shouldn't have got involved with her, as it's never going to work long term while Alfie sticks to this view. Then again, he was so angry with what Kat did that he probably wasn't thinking it through properly when he got with Roxy.

[lizann]

when roxy was telling alfie she'd never cheat on him, i was thinking he will on her with kat

[tammyy2j]

I cant believe after all his talk Alfie would leave Tommy so soon especially as Ronnie is living near him

[flappinfanny]

so glad cora is back, ann mitchell = quality.

[megan999]

I wish that Michael would elope with Alice and they don't return!!:readtheru

Sad about Ronnie and Jack :crying:

[tammyy2j]

I like the scenes with Jack and Ronnie, sad to see Jack leave

[flappinfanny]

dreadful ending for jack and odd camera work at the end.

nice scenes with ronnie and jack having a picnic and michael and janine just shine in every scene.

the miss teen contest, no comment!

[flappinfanny]

[moonstorm]

All the other soaps at the moment are girpping so what does EE offer?? Jack leaving in a taxi! I know thye are meant to be doing something next week with Michael but really???????

[flappinfanny]

its swings and roundabouts. michaels exit is around halloween and looks promising.

enjoyed tonights ep. good scenes with ronnie and michael. steve j shepherd steals every scene. nice to have cora back to her no nonsense self.

[flappinfanny]

----------------------------------------

[tammyy2j]

Michael and Ronnie have good chemistry

[flappinfanny]

funniest soap line of the week goes to eastenders and michael describing joey:


"joey is a monkey with shoes!" :D

[flappinfanny]

+++++++++++++++

[Katy]

Sharon is doing my head in! Why oh Why did she come back, please leave soon and take that awful child actor with her. Mind you with what he has to learn his trade off he hasnt got a hope.

[kayuqtuq]

Little Dennis needs a good hiding.

[tammyy2j]

I really like the scenes of David with his grandkids

[flappinfanny]

soap line of the night has to go to the wonderful michael again referring to janine:

'she's getting her claws cleaned.' :D

ben hardy is proving to be very capable in the role of peter. i thought the pace was a lot better tonight. noticed ian referred to david as his brother tonight for the first time. all in all a big improvement and an enjoyable episode.

[flappinfanny]

what is the point of sharon and her brat of a son

[tammyy2j]

So is Lucy really going to help her dad Ian oret revenge for him taking back his businesses, somehow I think she is forming a cunning plan for Ian at least I hope so

[megan999]

Where has Mo gone?
And when are we going to find out was happened to Shirley?
I really enjoyed last night's episode, now that I know where all this build-up is going between Michael and Alice. Well acted by them :clap:

[megan999]

what is the point of sharon and her brat of a son

It gives a plot device for Whitney and Ava, otherwise they wouldn't have much to do.
