Tonight's episode is one hour long --> 7.30-8.30pm.
Adam's comeuppance was great - well-deserved and hilarious :cheer:
It was nice to see Christian and Syed enjoying domesticity. I hope their happiness lasts for a while.
It's ridiculous that Glenda would keep her wedding dress to the husband she despised.
And it might have been fashionable at the time of her wedding, but I think there are far nicer dresses to be had

How cute are Christian and Syed lol. dont mean to sound stereotypical but they seem to be playing up to the thing about gay men and them being house proud. Ive got a lot of gay male friends like that it is true! lol Its funny.
I loved how Peter stood up for Lucy against Adam! He's usually completely against the things she does, but at the same time they are twins and they look out for each other! That really showed, was cool.
Tonights episode, Abby seems to be falling for Darren, it kinda happened a bit too suddenly though didnt it?

Poor Ronnie why dont they believe her
Poor Ronnie why dont they believe her
I thought Glenda did but didn't want to admit it.. but Peggy said she would have known if is was her but she didn't notice when Stella was doing it to Ben right under her nose

How the hell could Peggy tell Ronnie get out Roxy is the owner
I think Glenda knew about it

Glenda had a look on her face as if she knew already or he had done something like this before or even did it to her and she doesn't want to admit it...

Maybe she was raped by him also and thats why she left
Maybe she was raped by him also and thats why she left
Good thinking. He's raped twice that we know about, so it's likely that he would do so to his own wife.
Can Ronnie ever forgive Roxy and Peggy for not believing her? They don't want to face up to the kind of man they loved.
Lucas has absolutely no empathy for the children's grief. I thought he would at least act caring, even if he doesn't feel it. He's too busy blaming Denise for "losing her way".

I really thought Roxy would have taken longer than that to come round! She went from being in complete denial to believing her in like 5 minutes. I think Roxy did know it deep down though all along, all the evidence is there. She knows the stuff about Stacey too. Im glad Danielle was Joel's, but I really dont see how she would know for her sure, and its quite confusing. Ronnie got pregnant when she was 14, and according to the story Archie was attacking her when she was 13. If that was going on why would you be ready to start up a relationship with another boy. If you were being subjected to that? Kinda weird.
Maybe Ronnie was looking for love and affection because she did not get any at home and that is why she had the relationship with Joel.

Roxy turnaround wasn't a surprise.. I think when Ronnie said that she went into her room everynight to protect her that Roxy knew what she said was true. Ronnie protected Roxy from all this and I am glad Roxy believed her. The scar on her chin was also a break through.
I am glad too that Danielle was Joel's and as for starting a relationship with him, her dad told her she was a cheap whore, maybe she just associate sex with love and felt it was the only way to feel loved by anyone. if you are constantly been told that you are nothing more than sex then you will probably start to believe it. She also acted out too. Remember she said she hit Roxy so that she wouldn't have to be in the house alone with her dad...
I think Patrick knows and is hoping Lucas will slip up
So Archie wasnt Danielle's dad I'm glad Roxy asked this question

This Archie thing makes me feel sick its horrible! Trying to think about why he would think of picking on one of his daughters and not the other, although Ronnie said he would have got to Roxy eventually. Perhaps because Ronnie was older? But then most paedophiles like them young!! Anyway disgusting! But its the reason why its so powerful.
On a lighter note, Syed, Christian and Tamwar lol. What a situation. Im actually starting to see how different in size Christian and Syed are, I didnt really notice it that much before they properly got together, but Christian is so muscley and Syed is so scrawny. They look kinda weird standing with each other. It is cool though.

I don't think it is peadophilia, it is abuse. if you have ever read any reports on this, most of the time the "Parent" will abuse just the one child in the family for whatever reason. I recently read an irish novel "Please daddy don't" and there were a few girls in the family but only one of them was abused over 20 years and others were treated really well. Who knows what goes on inside these people's head but Roxy was daddy's girl and he didn't do anything at all to her.. maybe it was due to Ronnie protecting her or another reason.. as I said.. who knows

I think we are talking about INCEST...here is a site that pretty well defines the whole sad thing: http://www.ncvc.org/ncvc/main.aspx?dbName=DocumentViewer&DocumentID=32360
I think it is all a bit of everything :(
Imagine Zainab and Massod's faces if Tamwar were to start question to his sexuality now he always seemed gay to me :lol:
sean slater
23-07-2010, 14:41
Yeh it is incest, but he is a paedophile. Ronnie was a young child. And he clearly knew he was doing something wrong cos he tried to put the blame onto Ronnie to try and ease his guilty conscience. Sick human being!
sean slater
23-07-2010, 14:43
lol Yeh. I dont think he can be though, not now Syed has come out, they wont do it again with him. Plus he was quite into that girl before, He reminds me of Bradley, he's quite shy.
Talking about Tamwar, it was meant to attach the quote lol.
I really thought Roxy would have taken longer than that to come round!
Remember too that she's actually known about the rape for months, even though it hasn't been discussed until now. Roxy must have been thinking about it, so's had time to digest it. Her immediate reaction when Ronnie mentioned it again was denial, but it wasn't a new idea to her. I'm glad she came around 'cos Ronnie really needs her support.
I have always liked Abbie and hasn't she grown up? She looks absolutely gorgeous and I hope she is staying around
Yes!!!! We were right! Denise is alive and being kept locked up by the insane Lucas. How on earth does he think he's gonna get out of this situation?

Great episode! A classic. I know Lucas is unbelievable! A man that preaches about God and doing whats right, can stand there and talk at his wifes wake, when he knows full well she's alive. Every word that comes out of his mouth is a lie! He is psycho.
At least when Denise turns up his lies will be revealed straight away because he actually identified the body and told them it was Denise! And the girls will believe there mother, when she explains it to them.

Yes!!! I wonder if he planned to leave the country with Denise and start a new life with her? Let her take the blame for the murders, which doesn't matter as she's believed dead. Or just keep her locked up?

Maybe Ronnie wants to keep Stacey's secret for her? I know I would in her situation. Peggy would probably go straight round to Stacey's and confront her about the rape, which wouldn't be fair.

EASTENDERS actor Steve McFadden shows the normal rules of the road don't apply to Walford hardmen as he coolly rides his motor-scooter on the pavement.
Bearded Steve, 51, who plays Phil Mitchell, did at least wear a crash helmet - but what about those tiny blue shorts!
An onlooker told TV Biz: "He looked a right plonker.
"Maybe he thought people wouldn't recognise him with his helmet on."
Steve's character is also riding for a fall in the BBC1 soap.
A dramatic new storyline sees Phil become addicted to crack cocaine.

Max to Jody "never diss a dude's doodah".. and Denise asking for forgiveness for her cotton polyester mix.. :lol:

Interesting episode,, Lucas really was coming apart in the seams,, was waiting for him to LOOSE IT and start trashing the community center,, Mercy really showed no MERCY .when she was spouting out those bible verses, little did she know how close to home they were,, Denise is going to get her chance to escape..Lucas character is really scaring me.. hes totally and offically OFF HIS ROCKER !!!!
I also loved the scene with Max and Jodie,,,Never diss a dude's doodah ( I laughed so hard ) I am guessing that Darren is a bit small in that department, and when Jody made a referral to it not being Jewish,, I almost choked on my tea..

Did anyone see the extra scenes after pressing the red button? They were all of Denise and Lucas in the cellar, and it was quite interesting to see what had been going on down there. Lucas was even scarier than he was in the usual episode with his hellfire and brimstone.
I don't have a red button so I can't watch any of these

What a superb ending,, I can not wait to see the girls ( and Patricks) Thurs,,, I am willing to bet LUCAS takes all those sleeping pills.. and DIES before he faces justice for what he did ...what do U guys think????????????
Great ending.. I am just annoyed I have to wait 2 days now to see the fallout.... I hope Lucas doesn't die cause the kids need to know it was him.. if he did die, they will probably accuse Denise of killing him too... Was so shocked to see she was next door all the time... my heart dropped with I seen the boarding at the front door.. thought how is she ever to get out now..
Dot talking to Mercy about how her church welcomes black people.. so funny and Abi looking up cherrypicker :lol:
EastEnders star Don Gilet has insisted that his character Lucas Johnson's current storyline is "not about religion".
The actor spoke out in response to suggestions that the killer preacher's long-running plotline is offensive to Christians as fans have seen him using the Bible to justify his actions.
Since last year, Lucas has left his ex-partner Trina to die following an accident, killed the ex-husband of his current wife Denise, and - most recently - held Denise captive after attacking her in a rage.
However, in an interview with BBC Newsbeat, Gilet commented: "It's not promoting or demoting Christianity, this guy is just not very well

I was thinking the same.. I was hoping someone around would see her but there seemed to be nobody about!!
The scenes between Lucas and Denise in the cellar, including the extra scenes, have been brilliant, and have provided insight into both characters. Well-written and well-acted.

OMG so Denise was next-door to her family for all this time! I read somewhere that that house she was imprisoned in was Dawn's old house that got blown up by Mad May. Can't wait for tonight's episode. I don't think Lucas would have the guts to swallow all those sleeping pills.... but then again maybe he might. I can't tell what he might do next. But as an actor he has been a joy to watch and so has the lady who plays Denise.:cheer:

Well that was a let down...
The last episode felt like a cold shower. The acting was horrible. Only good thing was the ball game. I was really expecting some good stuff.
Was surprised Denise was kept next door. Brilliant find. I was wondering about the place being boarded up though.
Was I the only one hoping that Abi would get hit with the TV???
I enjoyed the episode.. Chelsea dragging Libby away from her mum.. what a cheeky!! and even when Lucas said it was him, she still said he was covering up for her!
Did not see the reaction I would have expected, like Libby screaming when she first saw Denise, because I am sure I would have and Chelsea did not seem that surprised and shocked. Not well scripted imo, and how come the police arrest Lucas without asking any questions? Surely they should have asked the family and neighbours as to what had been going on??

We don't know who made the call, maybe they arrested him for holding people hostage or whoever made the call told them Denise is back and it was Lucas all this time..
Libby didn't scream cause I think she thought she wasn't real, you could see that by the way she went over to her to touch her.. Why would she scream? she wasn't afraid of her mum when she was alive so thinking she sees her mum's ghost is not going to make her scream.. it was her bday so perhaps she thought her mum came to visit her..
Never thought of it like that, you could have a point there

If I saw a dead person or dead relative I'd run out screaming or pass out - The acting was terrible especially from Chelesa and Libby
They was 4 of them yet the couldnt take out Lucas who had no weapons
I liked the scenes with Max and Jack

It was a let down of an episode imo
I really enjoyed the episode. The only thing I didn't like was that so much time was spent on the rounders game, when I wanted to find out what was happening at the Fox's.
Except for Chelsea, I thought the acting was all very good, particularly Don Gilet - I even felt pity for Lucas at the end, which I wasn't expecting.
Lucas was like a madman at the end, threatening to throttle Libby and throwing TVs around, so I think it's very realistic that the family were too scared to fight back. Anyway, Patrick did leave that note for Heather, so it's not as if no-one did anything.

I thought this week's EastEnders was a bit hit and miss. The acting from Lucas and Denise on Monday and Tuesday's episodes was fantastic, but Thursday's episode and the climax to the story was very disappointing. I expected more of a reaction to Denise actually being alive. It was all a bit underwhelming.
The game of rounders was good, as it gave the Square more of a community feel with different characters interacting which has been missing from the show for a long time, but Thursday's episode was the wrong episode to incorporate it. Thursday's episode should have solely focused on the Foxes being held by Lucas. The cutting to and from scenes killed the tension and after Lucas was arrested, I was just thinking 'was that it?' . After months of build up, that's all we got. The residents of the Square didn't really seem to care much that Denise had actually been alive all along and Jordan's acting was rather laughable. He didn't seem to mind much that Lucas had killed his mother. His reaction was like he had just been kicked off the school football team.
The positives though - I loved how Zainab was there for the Foxes on Friday. We've seen a negative side to her personality with the Syed/Christian story, but we seen more of her positive traits on Friday as she supported the Fox family. I also loved the scenes between Dot and Fatboy - I think they would make a brilliant pairing. I hope that after Liz moves out and leaves, Dot offers for Fatboy to move in. I think they'd be brilliant on screen together - Friday's episode gave a great glimpse of that. Jodie and Darren are so lovely together but I do think the comedy is still a bit forced and cringeworthy.
Nice analysis, Davey. I agree with most of what you say.
I like Peggy and Pat living together
I like Peggy and Pat living together
I don't.. not really.. it seems like Peggy just uses Pat as a dog or something.. do this pat, do that.. blah blah..it is all your fault... Phil has gone seriously over the line here hitting his mum across the face
Please please tell me that Chelsea is going to be on the plane.. I will pay for the tickets and she can take Jordan and Abi with her...
Raine is back!! She brings so much to the show
While I'm glad Chelsea's leaving, it's so selfish of the character to leave her mum now.

That thought crossed my mind. A cab drive and Phil heading over ther. Surely not time enough.
Steve Mc Fadden does a good job. His eyes looked really funny when he got hold of the drugs.

So has Libby gone for good? Please say yes!
I didn't get what Lisa said. She said she left Louise with a friend, but wasn't it Lisa who dropped Louise off at Albert Square?
Someone dropped her off, think it was outside the station. Don't know if it was Lisa for sure, but thought it was at the time.
what amused me the other night was when lisa and louise was on the dance mats and pat came in saying come on peggy the meters running! that fare must have been expensive peggy was in the house ages!

Max and Jack good stuff! I knew Max was pushing him. He does love his brother. How endearing.
EASTENDERS is in trouble over its latest storyline about hardman Phil Mitchell turning into a crackhead.
Viewers have fired off 200 complaints to the Beeb over scenes showing Phil (Steve McFadden, 51) and pal Rainie (Tanya Franks, 42) drugged up before the 9pm watershed.
But BBC bosses have defended the episode. A spokeswoman said: “We feel Phil’s decline will highlight the destructive nature of drugs, and rather than encourage drug use, will act as a deterrent.”

I said that because it was implied that the ring belonged to her gran. If it was a ring from a beercan that would have been ok by me. It is all about the moment and athmosphere when you ask someone. Sorry I gave the wrong impression.

Loved the moment between Carol and Bianca. I'm glad they brought them back. It was totally believable. I even had tears in my eyes. Damn having children messes up your hormones.
I have noticed in tv programmes and films that drunk and drugged people very quickly become sober, I feel that Rainie just got her head together too quickly for being stoned out of her mind to help Phil 'walk it off', but as I have never been in that situation, I might be wrong

How horrifying. It was obvious she knew didn't you think?
I was sure from the start but to actually think that your husband abusing your daughter is replacing you is horrific... I would have chopped his bits off and fed it to him... Yeah leave but take your kids away from that vile man... how could she even think that she was "replaced". I am sure Ronnie didn't feel like that.. I am horrified and disgusted with what she said..

I wonder if Raine will make off with the drugs and leave Phil now she has a nice pile of money that Phil ripped off from the Vic .....So it was Jodie's dad that grabbed Darren and gave him a squeeze on his newly circiumsized thingie OUCHIE..Will be interesting to see how the new CLUB goes..Ronnie Roxy and Jack ...I think Carol got a phone call from that guy but hes probably MARRIED by the way she was acting, but I also think her EGO was badly bruised when she was on her way to the CLUB opening :-( Oh well Bianca has her work cut out for her, I wonder if Whit will eventually get back with that nice guy she was seeing some time back ???? He really was nice to her
So it was Jodie's dad that grabbed Darren and gave him a squeeze on his newly circiumsized thingie OUCHIE
I think most men where crossing their legs at that point.

I was totally fascinated with the whole episode,, every one did a terrific job..
Natalie Cassidy has hit out at EastEnders' current storyline which has seen Phil Mitchell become addicted to crack cocaine.
The actress quit her role as Sonia Flower in the BBC soap in 2006 and earlier this year bemoaned her character's lesbian storyline.
She branded Phil's (Steve McFadden) plot as "outrageous" in an interview with New magazine.
"You can't swear or show two people making love before the watershed, yet you can show people smoking class A drugs?" she said. "I was really shocked."
we didn't see them actually taken the drugs.. just the effects of it... I wasn't shocked.. just like Jodi, I was fasinated by it
sean slater
18-08-2010, 16:57
Its the same as any storyline in a soap. They are there to push the boundaries. Every soap needs the shock factor! Its what makes it entertaining. I dont know if if Phil's escape into drugs is truthful though. It happened very quickly, and its the kind of thing teenagers would experience, not an alcoholic. But saying that I thought the scenes last night between him and Shirley were very powerful.

Billy still lives with Heather and Shirley, im not sure exactly where he was last episode, but they did mention him twice. He was probably supposed to be off visiting his children or something.

Who was Aunt Sal referring to? I missed it.
I think it's a shame Vanessa's husband found out about her & Max so quickly, I thought he was going to find out and then do psychological abuse or something using her OCD for tidiness. I never did warm to Jodie. I never found her as endearing as Honey. Speaking of Honey, is she still in hospital? I find Phil's storyline compelling and IMO acts as a deterrant for drug taking. Although on the other hand, I guess some people might want to experiment with it having seen in on the TV. Can't win. But makes for good viewing :thumbsup:

Abi seemed really grown up in this episode, but I still would never ever see her and Darren together, he's way too old for her, and he wouldnt look at her twice. Maybe in a few years. Funny scene with Bianca and Ricky, 'be honest are my mum's legs better than mine' ha lol.
Phil's portrayal of a drug addict is really well-acted and totally unglamorous. Hopefully, seeing him lying on the floor in his own urine is enough to put some people off trying drugs, .

Ian on matesgate :L what a surprise that he didn't actually pay for the wine he used to celebrate Peter and Lucy's results. I think the whole investigation thing is a bit unrealistic though - why would they investigate Peter's results? 1 A* isn't odd, but I can see why they'd suspect Lucy considering she got 6A*'s and the rest were probably below C.

I think it must just be because they live in the same house, it would seem odd that one child would cheat and the other would know nothing about it (the exam board forgetting they have entered the parallel universe that is Albert Square).
That would make sense.. I think they suspect Lucy of cheating and are investigating both maybe in they hope that Peter would say something.. as you said it would be odd for one child to cheat and the other not to know about it

They were just looking for routine DNA samples but Becca called the police and told them about Stacey's baby.. so he became prime suspect when they were just looking for routine DNA (which would have been Bradley's anyway as he had cut his hand on Archie)

Peggy convinces her not to go ahead with it saying that Ricky can't stay with Bianca forever and that if Ricky is the father Sam has a better chance of getting him back however spoiler for week 37 says Sam is found out with her deceit when the result for the baby's father comes back so I am thinking not Ricky or Jack.. might be Minty

I was glued to EE last night... it was very very well done but I am a bit surprised nobody died in the fire. Considering the amount of people that are due to be axed and the fact that Stacey confessed to Peggy about Archie kinda leave people still left to go and Stacey secret out....

Maybe she feels she has nothing left in the Square without the Vic. I dont know how a pub can hold so much emotion for people lol

but it is more than a pub, it is also her home and she has so many memories in there.. some good, some bad but it was where her heart was
I was devastated when my grandmother's house was sold to strangers..
There should have at least been one death imo I found the episode a let down bar Stacey finally telling Ryan the truth :thumbsdow

I agree with you that there should have been one but I wasn't let down... Peggy, phil and Bill trapped inside.. Stacey and Lily upstairs... when the pub blew as Peggy, phil and billy was coming out and Stacey and Ryan getting knocked of the ladder had be on the edge of my seat... my niece came around to chat but we sat for 30 mins not speaking cause we were wondering if anyone would live or die..
I wonder what Peggy will do about Stacey now

Though, in fact, she hasn't been there very long. It's not like it was her lifelong home or anything. She only took over as landlady in the late 1990s and even then she hasn't been there all the time.
I was never the biggest Phil Mitchell fan but Steve McFadden has been acting his socks off lately
Tbh I found Peggy's screeching and facial expressions very ott last night I know her pub and home was on fire she just really annoyed me

I'm just glad Winston is safe...:cheer:

To answer my own question it looks like Peggy blackmails Stacey to take the blame for the fire to keep Phil outta jail

Just caught up with last nights episode, that was some of the worst acting I have ever seen from Peggy. Completely atrocious throughout.
Thought the whole episode was a shambles imo, have seen a lot better than that, even Steve McFadden was not as convincing as a drunk/druggy this time round, although I thought his portrayal previously has been excellent.

I thought the fire episode was rather disappointing and a bit of an anticlimax. There were lots of elements that were either rather silly or not well done. The fire spread much to quickly in the bar and the flame graphics were often not very good. The confusion and the long time taken to get out of the bar was not very believable. The Stacy scenes were good, but brief because so much else was happening. I really think that they should have let Peggy die in the Vic as a memorable ending. Now it just looks as if it's just going to be in the back of a taxi or an airport goodbye. That hardly justifies a special version of Peggy's theme. What's to say she won't be back for a visit next year?
I believe she announced already that she wants to come back in about 2 years, hence they could not kill her off

I kept wondering how long it would take for the fire engine to arrive. The siren sounded at exactly the same pitch for several minutes. It never seemed to get any nearer until it actually arrived.

I was on the edge of my seat watching it but felt let down by the lack of no serious injuries or even a death or two

I will admit.. I was not impressed with her acting at all but overall I loved the episode... Zainab getting Syed out, we have to remember that Zainab was in a fire herself and came out badly injured so she was petrified.. Gillian (Jean) was fantastic last night.. I thought Roxy was a bit over the top, Sam looked like she didn't care either way.. Janine begging Ryan was very believable...

Did Zainab or Mas go back for Syed I could really tell it was so dark I was even brighting the tv setting :o
Yes Sam seemed like she didnt care

Why the hell is Glenda back for?
Why the hell is Glenda back for?
Yeah.. she came out of no where or is she still living in the flat above Ronnie? We never did see her leave, just Roxy leaving the flat and going back to the Vic... I thought Peggy would have pushed her in to the pub
I thoroughly enjoyed last night's episode and can't wait for tonight's. Some of the acting was dodgy, but it didn't take away from my enjoyment. I was on the edge of my seat throughout, especially when Lily and Stacey were trapped. My favourite moments were Stacey telling Ryan that he's Lily's father, and both Zainab and Masood desperate to find Syed (showing that they still love him, awww...).

I agree, WTF is Glenda back for?? On the front of the Daily Mirror TV guide is says "will Phil, Peggy or Stacey perish in the Vic inferno?" So I was expecting at least one death! We know that Peggy and Stacey are leaving, and watching the episode I thought that the producers wouldn't have left Lily motherless, I hadn't heard of Phil leaving EE, so my money was on Peggy. So I was disappointed she survived. IMO that would have been a great way to leave the show:D And yes, I was also put off by her screeching and wailing! But overall I did enjoy the episode.
Another disappointing episode imo, would have been far better for Peggy to die in the fire and come back as a ghost when it was required to sober up Phil or Kat and Alfie...
A low-key but affecting episode tonight. I had thought that Peggy leaving after the fire was going to be an anti-climax, but I found it very well done. I must admit to being teary at the end.
She seemed utterly defeated and lost, especially when Phil rejected her.
No matter some people's low opinion of the "Poison Dwarf" - it's very obvious from Peggy's last episode, and the documentary afterwards, that the cast and crew think the world of her and were very sad to see her go - as am I.
The wild west trailer for Kat and Alfie straight afterwards was funny. It seemed to be saying "the Queen is dead, long live the Queen (and King)"!

Thanks for that. I felt the same at the end. This epi was so much better than the actual fire epi. I think Pat knew what was coming, hence her getting a bottle of gin for old times sake. You could see she had difficulties staying dry eyed. Kudos loved this one.
Ooh cannot wait for Kat to come back. I loved her character.

So Peggy has gone. I will miss her. I was also teary when she left. It is the end of an era. But Kat and Alfie returning is going to be great!! :D
