It was indeed cruel, but remember Stacey was at an extremely low ebb when she wrote it and changed her mind when she felt a bit better.

It was nice to see Dot go see Stacey and ask about Jean, it is strange she is not visiting Stacey and Lily
Abi and Lee, well I did not expect that but a Carter Branning baby if he did the job could be good for the show's future and Lee and Whitney really don't make a believable couple for me
Abi is so desperate to be loved and not alone that I feel sorry for her
Martin is in America to see Michelle, when he returns could perhaps Vickie or Mark come back with him
I like Pam and Les together, again Pam looked lovely
Ben is so angry with himself he needs help.
Ah well lets see if soap odds work and Abi's one night drunken thing gets her up the duff duff duff.
lovely scenes with Dot.
Is Stacey going to have to tell the world why Mrtin has left?

Urgh! I can't believe how stupid Abi is! Of all the people, why Lee? Surely even in a drunken state she would know that out of all the men in the city, Babe would not want her to sleep with her own nephew, let alone have a baby with him! It'll be interesting to see her reaction when she finds out, though.
Abi could be passing an STD on to Lee for all she knows. :wall:
The saving grace of the Ben/Abi story for me, and what keeps both characters just on the right side of sympathetic, is that they genuinely love each other. Usually in similar soap stories, at least one of the people involved is cruelly and cynically using the other.
I thought it was refreshing that they went to the clinic together and could talk about his one night stands. However, more lies keep piling up...
Yes it's quite sad.
I'm surprised she hasn't so far. Maybe she's hoping they can go back to playing happy families when Martin comes back?
I thought the double bill tonight was pretty Mediocre. The best bit for me was Kim and Lee in the Albert, which was a really funny scene. Also the scenes with Les and Pam were lovely.
I'm not absolutely certain about this, but I believe the USA are not keen on allowing anyone in who has a criminal record, especially a custodial record. Does anyone with more legal knowledge know about this?
Visa Waiver Programme (VWP)
The VWP allows most British Citizen passport holders to visit the US for up to 90 days. The types of journey allowed under the VWP include tourism, certain types of business visit and transit to another country.
You won’t qualify for entry to the USA under the VWP, and will need to apply for a visa from the nearest US Embassy or Consulate, if:
you have a British passport that describes your nationality as something other than ‘British Citizen’
your passport has been extended by 12 months under exceptional measures put in place in mid 2014;
your passport doesn’t include certain security features
you’ve been arrested for certain crimes, even if it didn’t result in a criminal conviction
::
We do not recommend that travelers who have been arrested, even if the arrest did not result in a criminal conviction, have a criminal record, certain serious communicable illness, have been refused admission into, or have been deported from, the United States, or have previously overstayed under the terms of the Visa Waiver Program, attempt to travel visa free under the Visa Waiver Program. The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act does not apply to US visa law and spent convictions,regardless of when they occurred will have a bearing on a traveler’s eligibility for admission into the United States.
