Evelyn trying to sell her out of date stock to Rita. :D
I was expecting our Rita to warble out an old ditty with it being VE Day, I am glad she didn't.
David is better off without Shona, stay well clear.

If Shona actally fancied Platt I feel sure she would show some interestQuote:

Did Rita say she was 13 on VE day, is she really 88?
Yes, born 25th Feb 1932 .. the actress is actually a year younger and will be 87 this September according to WikiQuote:

Why can Daniel join a grieving widows support group, continuation from his grieve retreat in Scotland, get friendly with Roy, talk to him as both lost wives to cancer
how can daniel afford the hooker
It made me love Evelyn all the more.Quote:

You would think that she wouldn't charge him with all the free advertisement she is gettingQuote:

Looks like you fell for his wind up as easily as Shona did.Quote:

kinda want them to go back to yas and geoff, sick of shona and seb
Pretty much, the Geoff and Yasmeen story has been going on and I'm just not interested about any Seb story just now.
I want to see Geoff nailed, preferably literally to a wall.
Can't believe they just dropped the story. I have zero interest now. They have lost momentum on the story.Quote:

Interesting to see Tracy being more sympathetic, while she'll never be Miss goody two shoes, it seems they have been making her a bit better lately.
Looks like the Geoff and Yasmeen storyline will be coming back this week, which will make things more interesting. I've no interest in the Seb/Alina/Emma storyline either. They had to make Tracy more sympathetic in this context as making her usual catty comments to a worried mother would be taking things too far, even for her. One thing I like about Leanne's storyline is that it's given her more scenes with Steve. They get on with each other better than they do with their respective partners.
But they also would not get on together for long if they were to get into a romantic relationship either ....Quote:

I am not buying a sympathetic Tracy. She will always be a nasty piece of work who should be im prison.Quote:

Since when has a Battersby ever stayed quiet and not raved?Quote:

I haven't watched tonights episode yet, but it could be a state of numb shock, delayed grief, perhaps even a case of refusing to accept it, but in a different manner from Leanne, whatever. Believe me, I know similiar feelings but under different circumstances.Quote:

good scenes with emma jenny and peter nick
seb and alina could leave
The whole Seb/Alina thing just seems as if it's going nowhere fast.
Correction, JF: The whole Seb/Alina thing just seems as if it's going nowhere very slowly.Quote:

Really also disliked the way Nick was at first with Peter but at least they seemed to make up.
I am not liking the attitude of Simon Barlow
Was it really necessary for Toyah to cancel the fostering ?
I hope that Chesney and Gemma got the sausages
