a watchable, but missable episode. nice scenes with peter and ian. also good scenes with carol and bianca. can someone shoot alfie!!!! does donna fancy terry?
It was nice to see Ian supporting Peter for a change, and good that the writers haven't forgotten that grief takes a long time to heal.

Announcement for no episode tonight wasn't very nice: "We have no time for Eastenders". They should have made time!

best episode of eastenders i have seen in a long time.
if corrie had been cancelled the end of the world would be looming and corrie fans would be rioting with mobility scooters and zimmer's.
So annoyed that they didn't even show it on BBC3. What really takes the biscuit is that England aren't even in it any more and they still give priority to the football.
I guess that they had to make the schedules up as if England was in the final but I agree, they could make provisions on their other channels for the regular shows for non-football viewers.

The BBC should have a dedicated sports channel instead of disrupting the schedules for those of us who have no interest whatsoever in sport of any kind!
EastEnders actually aired in Ireland. Someone has uploaded it on YouTube if anyone doesn't want to wait until tonight to watch it.

yes and it was crap too much terry and nicky and why is donna so pally and caring with terry, has she a crush
who has david's shares from the car lot, could bianca claim them
He wanted his investment out and Max had to deal with it I think. I think he had a rant about it in the aftermath of David's departure.
The second half was terrible, I found Tuesday's quite enjoyable. Loved Roxy's revenge on Aleks, though.

The hour episode was a bit unexpected, and was planning to watch Emmerdale. Watched Emmerdale on +1 at 9 anyway, but wish they'd warned us earlier!
I'm glad that Carol changed her mind and is now getting the double mastectomy. How selfish is Bianca? Even when she gets a bit of extra money it's frittered on take-out food!
It could be a sign of depression or just a letting off steam from her worries ... not sensible, no, but maybe a treat to cheer herself and everybody else up ....
It could be a sign of depression...
You're right, in which case I'll be sympathetic. I'm biased because I've always disliked Bianca and found her incredibly selfish. :wall:
roxy still an idiot for a man
I wonder if Patrick had a stroke? He seemed to be seeing something and I believe visual effects can happen with a stroke. It was nice to see Patrick featured so heavily for a change.
Loved Linda's surprise!
I can't guess who the little boy was with Shirley. Has Carly got a child I wonder?
And Shirley was with heathers son,George

I loved seeing Anthony again, I just wish it wasn't for only one episode. I'd like him back full time. His and Kat's scene was really nice and nostalgic. :)
Ian is probably delighted with the timing of Patrick's stroke
The little weasel was disappointed that Patrick started showing signs of recovering! :angry:
I hope EE does this stroke story justice and shows the real ordeal that people go through - victims and carers. I don't want it to be depressing, of course, but I don't want Patrick's recovery glossed over either (as nearly always happens in soaps). The story could be realistic but ultimately uplifting if done right.
Why does Whitney have to be so weak as to fall back into Lee's arms after he unceremoniously dumped her for Lucy?? There is more to life than men, girls! :wall:
Agree Dazzle, I just hope Patrick can soon inform Denise re Ian and Rainie. Also hope Kim will return and be present when the deed is done.
ian the weasel deserves a kicking

I wasn't sure that she definitely heard Phil and Shirley talking. She could have been distressed due to panic at being outside. If the writers had wanted to make it clear that she heard, they probably would have shown her listening at the gate. I can't wait to find out what happens next!

Indeed. Charlie seems like a decent guy at heart though and, after his conversation with Liam, I'm wondering if he's regretting getting into this scam with Nick. I hope he comes down on Dot's side in the end. I don't want to see her heart broken again. :(

I like the idea of a TV appeal by Ian and Peter. Ian was back to his weasely self trying to worm his way out of it. He's more afraid of everyone finding out about Rainie (and perhaps even worse?), than of finding Lucy's killer :angry:.

a bloody good episode to end the week. eastenders has certainly found its mojo, the scenes with cora and rainie were very raw. ann mitchell and tanya franks were very good. poor linda and a great duff duff.
lily looks like she should be in a horror film :p
Cora's getting a slating online for exposing Mick so publicly but I don't blame her myself. She saw Mick admitting that he bought and used her drug addict daughter's body, and was furious as a result. As unpleasant as Rainie is, we all know that such women are usually horribly exploited and are victims.
Unfortunately, Linda and the kids are going to suffer too :( but I do understand that Cora was too shocked and horrified to be able to think of them at the time.
Ian is pure filth for letting this happen!! :angry:
Totally agree Dazzle ,neither would I blame Cora, I think Ian's cowardice goes beyond trying to protect his relationship with Denise or his status I wonder if in someway he knows more about the murder than he's letting on. Patrick needs to make a speedy recovery. Also hope we get to see this video from the night of the murder.

Yes, I agree with you about Glen, especially about Ian. I've also thought that he might be hiding more than his sleazy liaison with Rainie. If the police found out that the alibi he's given is false, they'd examine his movements that night very closely. I wonder what else they'd find?

superb scenes with jean and stacey. lacey and gillian had some lovely scenes in monday's epsiode. even alfie was almost bearable.
Why couldn't Patrick write something down for Denise ,he was able to feed himself ? Iv'e freeze framed the bus video through can't spot anyone, didn't expect to really. Only thing, as Lucy is getting off the bus she seems to stare for a while at the person behind her. Anyone had any better luck? Too early for any clues to the killer, I guess.

I hope the news that the "brasser"in question is Rainie, Cora's daughter gets out too quiet soon
Why couldn't Patrick write something down for Denise ,he was able to feed himself ?
I thought the same thing, but realised that holding a spoon is a far cry from the meticulousness needed to write (especially if the side that's paralysed is the one he uses to write with).

As Tammy says, people are saying that the person Lucy stared at is Jay, as he was wearing the same hat as the guy on the bus during the episode when Lucy was killed. There's speculation he was off to meet Ben, which is how Ben will be introduced.
After recently slating Ian, I was back to feeling sorry for him last night. Mick's explanation to Linda that he was covering for Ian because he still had his daughter convinced me too. I'm glad Linda called him "St Mick" as that's how he's coming over in this storyline!

^ I still think Mick is an idiot to cover for Ian, to get a conviction and a fine and alienate his own family over this
so was phil testing mick to not let out ian's secret?
so was phil testing mick to not let out ian's secret?
yes I thought so....or Phil stopped and left the Vic because he realised Mick could reveal all..?
I love Ian and Phil's scenes together at the moment. It's great seeing Phil supporting Ian knowing how he's bullied him relentlessly in the past. I'm sure they'll go back to being enemies again at some point though. :D
We need more confrontations between Phil and Mick, the two strongest males on the square at the moment. It's nice to see good guy Mick being able to stand up to bully Phil.
Jay looked very guilty at seeing the video. He's definitely hiding something, though I doubt he's the killer.

yeap i feel sorry for linda. dean is seriously bad. i am not sure where this story is going, but i hope linda doesn't get raped. i still have no sympathy for the weasel beale. i also feel sorry for denise. i wonder when kim returns? (and not on skype) how long is tameka's maternity leave?
loving the carter scenes, timothy west is just brilliant. also linda storming through the market and staring cora down was played to perfection by kellie.
cora had the line of the week at sonia's weight watchers/fat busters club, ' if i had a bike I certainly know where to park it. :)
a good week in walford.
yeap i feel sorry for linda. dean is seriously bad. i am not sure where this story is going, but i hope linda doesn't get raped
So do I, that would be unpleasant to watch and there's no way Dean's character could be rehabilitated after that.
I've seen some posters on other sites say they hope Dean and Linda have an affair!! That's a very distorted view of what's been happening. It's very, very clear in my opinion that Dean is obsessed with and harassing Linda, and that there's absolutely no chance she'll reciprocate his feelings.
His obsession has a lot to do with his seriously mixed feelings about Shirley, so I'm hoping she'll eventually step in and help him to sort himself out. I still feel some sympathy with him at the moment as he's had such a terrible time of things and it's obviously affected him deeply. I want him to be able to recover from this and be a likeable character again. I suppose it depends how far down the dark hole the writers take him.
i still have no sympathy for the weasel beale.
I keep swinging back and forth on whether I sympathise with or dislike Ian at the moment. I still think he might be hiding more than the incident with Rainie.
loving the carter scenes, timothy west is just brilliant. also linda storming through the market and staring cora down was played to perfection by kellie.
The Carters are great - my favourites are Stan and Linda. Stan telling Linda she wasn't "servicing" Mick enough (I think that's the word he used) was both shocking but hilarious (not many actors could pull that off imo). Linda's fast become one of my favourite characters in EE, despite my intense dislike for her at first for her rejection of Johnny after he came out.
a good week in walford.
It's been very entertaining and enjoyable.

So far I don't like the couple pairings of Lauren with Dean and Lee with Whitney
They're both awful pairings and quite excruciating to watch. So Lauren sleeps with Dean, who's making it very obvious that he doesn't give a damn about her, and Whitney's decided to jump in with both feet with yet another womaniser. Can't the writers give these young women something else to do rather than jump into bed with the first loser guy who shows an interest? They never seem to learn. Give us a break!
Wow! Ian's sunk to a new low by threatening to place Patrick into a home. I suppose he knows that Denise won't let that happen, but is trying to terrorize a helpless old man into keeping quiet. What a scumbag! (Yes, I'm back to hating Ian this week lol :D)

But can Patrick remember??
I think he can given his intense reaction to Ian, but I suppose we won't know for sure until he can communicate with Denise.
What I don't get about Ian wanting to put Patrick in a home is that surely Denise will visit him, so she'll find out about Ian's transgressions anyway. Perhaps sooner if Patrick is getting lots of professional support to recover. Ian's thinking doesn't make much sense to me. :searchme:

So Lee was only interested in a quick rumble in the sack with Whitney, he could have stayed and helped her mind Lily :angry: Whitney deserves better but she always seems to jump fast into bad relationships she needs a slow burn romance that starts out as friendship first (I know she had that with Fatboy) who else could she pick now, Tamwar or Peter is only available around her age

So Charlie and Yvonne are hiding from Nick as he beat Yvonne so they faked Nick's death, this makes no sense to me

Yes. I wonder if we're going to see him? I assume if he's in contact with Whitney that he knows Lily is back.
Whitney gives in and sleeps with Lee already stupid girl
Just when I thought she was being sensible she gives in to him! What an idiot! She should know by now that some men will do anything to get a girl in bed. I'm not saying that Lee's doing this as he did sound genuine, but given his track record I wouldn't have given him the benefit of the doubt so soon.
So Charlie and Yvonne are hiding from Nick as he beat Yvonne so they faked Nick's death, this makes no sense to me
I was thinking that Nick made Charlie fake his death for some reason.
I must say I can't help being disappointed that Charlie unblocks toilets for a living! What a letdown for such an enigmatic character!
I'm sure there's a lot more to the story though as it sounded as if he's only been working at the care home recently. Maybe he had a good job and Nick lost it for him somehow? I was thinking that maybe Charlie was a cop in the past as he didn't even blink when explaining to Summerhayes about working in Special Ops. He sounded totally believable.
I'm glad we got some answers to the storyline at last although we're still very much in the dark.

So is the actress who plays Cindy Junior
I would have thought an ambulance would have been Ian's first call, he seemed liked ages until he did finally ring an ambulance and why wasn't Cindy and the baby taken to hospital to be checked out?

a tremendous episode. nice scenes with mick and nancy. cindy was outstanding, i didn't realise mimi was such a good actress. it was so sad when she said she had killed her mother.
the look on denise's face at the end was brilliant. if i were ian, i would be very afraid. you know what they say, revenge is a dish best served cold.

The paramedic and the midwife took their time getting out of the ambulance didn't they? They pulled up outside Ian's house and Denise had enough time to get across the square from the Vic; Ian had time to deliver the baby, all before they midwife got into the house. I hope they don't have too many emergencies to deal with!
I wonder if the baby will be called Lucy?
I'm finding it hard to understand why Denise said that she'd forgiven Ian, when it's obvious she hasn't. Is it for Patrick, Cindy and the baby's sake? Ian was lovely to Cindy in yesterday's episode but he's poisonous as a partner. I'm hoping Denise will be able to break free soon.
It was about time Nancy had some decent screen time and I'm really glad she took Mick to task for the cruel way he spoke to the broken Rainie.
I think your right Dazzle , it's for Patrick's sake. The expression on Denise's face when Ian gave her a hug seemed to show she's planning revenge. Nancy was very good . Don't understand why Mick spoke to Rainie that way, thought he was better than that. Started to show a nasty side.

Ha ha...I didn't notice that as I was too caught up in the emotion of the delivery. Well spotted! :)

I've always thought that Mick might have a dark side, though I was surprised at his vindictiveness in that scene. Nancy was shocked too.
We've had nine months of Mick being built up as a nice guy through and through, so it will be interesting if the layers start to be pulled back to show something different now.
Danny Dyer has always said that there was a darker side to Mick ....

After the way Ian and Cindy bonded in Thursday's episode, it was a real let-down (and completely nonsensical) that Ian would then up and leave.
I'm really, really pleased that Denise didn't continue to make excuses for Ian and left him. It's a shame she's having to care for Patrick alone though - I hope she takes up the social worker's offer of help. Diane Parish is such an underrated actress.

Denise is a saint for taking on the care of Patrick when they're not even related! She shouldn't have to be doing it, IMO, Anthony should be doing a lot more for his dad. He should be providing continuing financial support to Denise if he wants her to be Patrick's carer. A one off payment of £2000 isn't going to last long. And it seemed Anthony was more than happy for Ian to cover the fees if Patrick had gone into a care home. That's just outrageous.

I agree, she is a saint but I don't think she was forced into doing it. She could have let the state take care of Patrick but decided against this (but she could still take advantage of the support that was offered). It is outrageous that Anthony isn't helping out though, especially as he was portrayed as a good guy when he was a regular character.
Ideal opportunity for KIM to return!
EE has been really good this year , but so much is now being left in the air, just as the plots get interesting .i.e. Charlie Cotton, Nick Cotton, Aunt Babe & the mystery guest, the Croker set up,the additional Lucy Beale CCTV footage on the EE website hasn't been shown. Then as soon as the Ian Beale actions get discovered , within 10 minutes he's off into the wide blue yonder .I guess we're soon going into different plots according to spoilers.
So a bit of progress on the other plots would help. (more licquer chocolates being scoffed during the mean time)

Now if I was Alfie I would a) go to the local Job Centre/DWP to see if there were any jobs going and see what benefits I might be entitled to (including housing benefit) b) be prepared to look further than Albert Square for a job and c) go to the local Citizens' Advice Bureau for help with rescheduling my debt and more advice on benefits.
But I suppose all that is a bit too much like living in the UK, and we know, of course, that Eastenders is set in some weird parallel universe where none of this applies. So far better to set fire to your house and lose everything than...er...lose everything....

See that was so good I had to say it twice.
nobody sets foot outside the square under any circumstances, unless:
1. to go to a car auction
2. to go up west to shop....
or 3. to go on the run
Alfie did say he was going to the job centre and Kat did mention benefits, although the rest of the storyline doesn't make much sense. He's not going to make a lot of money from burning down a rented house, is he? I assume they've got home contents insurance but they'd need to use that money to replace their furniture etc, so how does he think they'd come out on top? Anyway, it's not likely that someone who hasn't paid their rent for six months would be paying insurance.
I think Bianca's really selfish to be leaving now. It wouldn't hurt her to plan to join Terry a bit later when she's sure Carol's ok with it. Also, how can they afford that big house when neither of them will have a guaranteed income?
What was with DI Keeble's smirk when she came for Jay, someone I doubt she's ever had any significant dealings with before?
By the way here's (http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04gwlkf/eastenders-exclusive-scene-under-suspicion) Jay's interview with the police, a scene that's not being shown in the show itself for some reason.
I would have thought viewers would want to see that clip . This storyline is getting so bloody annoyingly fragmented it beggars belief. I know the big reveal isn't till Feb 2015 but come on producers you're having a laugh. It will take a month to bring together all the sub-plots so far ,let alone those to come. Finally what the bloody hell's the point of filming something you're not televising ! Rant over.
I know, it's annoying isn't it? I don't actually mind about the story being drawn out for so long as investigations can take a long time in reality, and delving into the storyline every now and again is keeping me interested. Not showing crucial scenes is a bizarre decision in my opinion though. I know we'll get all the information but it's characters as well as storylines that keep us interested. I think lots of viewers are keen to see more of the fascinating DI Keeble too!
Apparently, the scenes could be watched by pressing the red button after yesterday's episode, but I missed the announcement, as I'm sure lots of people did.
There's also extra scenes of Jake (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8doYdmNhPY) and Billy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eeE0vJaMMU) being interviewed that I missed at the time.

Mick is not actually married but I know what you are saying... in soap land, relationships are very much up and down and break up unless they have been married for over 40 years or so ... spouses tend to be more forgiving (thinking Vera forgiving Jack a lot in Corrie, for example)

Was away earlier in the week so forgot to post in here. I know phil slept with shirley after he found out about sharon and was vulnerable, but i do believe he was genuine with shirley. it just so happened he was vulnerable and couldnt fight his feelings. He was right she was there, but that doesnt mean he didnt have feelings for her. if he really meant what he said, why would he tell her that if he wanted to keep her in line so he could use her again. It didnt make any sense.
He has told shirley everything, she knows everything what he is doing and she knew he was hurt over sharon. I don't believe the current producer would make shirley out to be this much of an idiot, she's not stupid. she's never been that over Phil, she always had doubts about him being genuine, why would now after he found out about sharon be any different.
You could tell after shirley left that he was hurt by her drop dead comment, add to the fact that he tells her everything with no question other than just being close, he told her he couldnt trust her in tuesdays ep but he still told her about marcus & dennis. He was going to tell sharon about knowing but shirley stopped him.
he knew sharon was angry with him cos he told shirley it was down to dennis. this is another reason why i think hes in denial cos he wanted to find reasons why sharon wouldnt do this.

Just what I said on another thread, Timalay. That should have been explained because it makes no sense as Terry's new business would take a while to get going and earning a profit, and Bianca now has neither a job nor savings.

Excellent episode yesterday.
I just can't feel sorry for Alfie though as he put not only his own family at risk but the neighbours too. Also, we were told time and time again how desperate he was without being shown. We saw him ask for jobs in a couple of places in the square, but apart from a very brief mention of the job centre, saw nothing else to prove how desperate he was for a job. We should have been taken on that ride with him in my opinion, so that we felt his despair too. As it is, his actions just come across as extremely stupid and not those of someone driven to the brink.

We should definitely have seen that. I'm largely feeling sorry about how out of character Alfie has become, rather than sorry for him as a character. We should also have seen following a number of rejections, Alfie almost secure a bar job. He could then have lost out when Phil deliberately gave him a bad reference as a result of the history with Roxy.
Alfie should have thought to check the house again at the very least. There was every chance that someone could have returned while he was at Phil's. The hairspray and Kat's handbag were right in his view when he left. He knew the hairspray sales were slow, so surely he should have realised that there was loads still in the house.

I really can't tell what phil's game is. Its really complicated. im not buying he'd treat her this bad after everything he's done for shirley in the past. theyve always had a deep friendship and hes always seemingly cared for her in some way.
I found it weird he had no intention of sleeping with shirl, but then shirl was clearly winding him up in tuesdays ep and todays. he looked annoyed with shirley both days. they've always had this type of r/ship since they split that she'd wind him up if sharon put a foot wrong and wasn't the one for him.
im holding out hope its not as all as it seems, and phil is secretly in love with shirley and he'll leave sharon for shirl last minute. not giving up untill its been shown proof onscreen

I actually quite like Tosh for the first time since she arrived in the square.

First of all Mick covers up for Ian and takes the rap for him; then he covers up for Alfie and goes off on one at Tosh for doing her job. I expect his next storyline is to cover up for...oh,I can't say, as it would be classed as a spoiler...

tonight's ep was epic for me, easily the best one in a while. Linda h is amazing!
but for me it proved phil isn't using shirley, he told sharon ben was only staying till the wedding, but he said he would talk to shirley about ben after the argument, if ben was only staying till the wedding there'd be no need to talk to shirley about it. she wouldn't have to see him anyway. so i presume he really is planning on leaving sharon for shirley and wasn't giving her false hope.

The Dean and Shirley scenes were good and I am glad Dean stood up for Shirley as it looked like it was going to be Mick again as the big hero to the rescue
So it was Jay who buried Lucy's bag and wallet, him and Ben must have met her the night she died I do hope one of them didn't kill her

The Shirley and Sharon slagging match was funny
Some good scenes tonight. Hope Ben doesn't cause Sharon to pull out of the wedding over little Denny .yuk. Want to see what Phil's got in store for her. Deano looked well naused when he couldn't have his wicked way. Tosh opting for alternative means of getting pregnant and to cap it all Jay was the phantom gardener,the plot thickens,
phil without pants not a nice sight

Rewatched the ep and phil told ben to stay till the wedding in the arches before he told ben of the plan, so im so confused. does he really want ben to stay for good or is he just saying that. why did he need to talk to shirl if ben was only staying a couple of days? he said "so you care about my happiness now" why would he say that if he wasn't planning on being with shirley?

I don't know why Sharon was worried about Ben living in the same house with Denny. Denny seems to have been locked in his room for several months and not allowed out anyway.

I thought he was good overall although there were a few dodgy moments. He was well and truly thrown in at the deep end and it must have been very intimidating to have big scenes with so many EE legends in one episode. He's also more likeable than the previous Ben. I think the actor is off to a promising start.
The Dean and Shirley scenes were good and I am glad Dean stood up for Shirley as it looked like it was going to be Mick again as the big hero to the rescue
Loved the Shirley/Dean scenes. I really, really wish that the EE team had made their relationship a priority, as I'm far more invested in that than the Shirley/Mick relationship. I was excited when Dean returned and looking forward to his and Shirley's relationship being explored in depth, but that's never happened and is looking unlikely to happen now. :(

Excellent twist at the end there!

I don't know what Phil's thinking either. It's possible he doesn't know his own mind at this stage.

It is a shame Dean is being made a rapist
I think now Ben is back, Phil knows he cant have Shirley so maybe he does want Sharon as he don't want to be alone
I do think Sharon had a cheek telling Phil to throw out his son Ben from his house even if he is murderer

I think Peggy is pointless. 😄
. Pistols at dawn ,for her and Sharon with two fatal shots. Sought 'em both out once and for all.
My memory gets worse, what was it that Ben saw in the case that made him stop and think ,anything to do with Lucy Beale?

I'm not sure what you mean, Glen. Did Ben see something in Sharon's suitcase? Could it have been the gun?
Ben seemed shellshocked when he saw Johnny! Was that reaction supposed to mean that he fancied him? A bit of over-acting there if that was all it was.
Is Ben's softening towards Sharon real? It seemed extremely sudden considering how much he hated her half and hour beforehand.
I'm glad that Billy managed to get Lola and Lexi out of Phil's path for the time being.
I enjoyed Peggy's cameo, but then I've always been a fan of the character. I did think all that ranting about Sharon was a bit over-the-top considering that Peggy didn't seem bothered enough to get on a plane and see Phil in person. Maybe it would have been better if we'd been given a reason Peggy can't fly, such as a broken leg or something.
Yes your right Dazzle Just watched a replay. At the very start of the episode which I somehow missed Sharon puts the gun into a black & white check cosmetic bag , Ben later sees the bag in her case, How he knows it contains a gun I don't know ,Either way mystery for me solved. Thanks again Dazzle.
aunt sal and stan now there is a couple :p
aunt sal and stan now there is a couple :pCertainly some chemistry between them ,hope it's developed. Sharon's close up shots bit scary , future Miss Havisham role maybe ?
Excellent, multi-layered, edge-of-the-seat episode last night. I can't wait for next week now.
