Pearl Denise Patrice is a nice name, I hope the baby survivesQuote:

Yes, for the time being. Phil's apparently on the case though. :DQuote:

The high drama is what makes them interesting though. It kind of says it all about living on Albert Square that the Carters came in as a happy-go-lucky family and are now just as miserable as the rest of the residents. :DQuote:

Other than that I've loved the Carter storylines, and I hope they go back to being happy (most of the time at least).
She was able to tell Carol what it said though.Quote:

"The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" Written by Ewan MacColl for Peggy Seeger (later his wife). I used to go to their folk club every week back in the day and got to know them both. Not sure what Ewan would have made of his song being used in Eastenders!
Who is trying to make who jealous in the Ben/Abi/Jay story
We haven't seen Jay and Lola together for a long while
Sometimes lovey dovey Mick can be OTT

Sharon was great tonight, good scenes with Linda and Sharon. I loved Elaine in tonight's ep. We all know Maria is a the first lady of the West End and credit to her for singing in character as Elaine and not as Maria Friedman.
Lovely scene between Sharon and Linda when they were taking about being a mother. They really work well and are believable as best friends despite knowing each other for such a short time. It's nice to see Linda with a smile on her face, and it's good to see Sharon back to being a likeable character again.
I wasn't expecting Jay to be knocked back by Lola. I thought she liked him. I don't think he's jealous that Abi's Ben's girlfriend now as he treated her really harshly for some unknown reason when he dumped her. He liked Lola even then.

(At least he doesn't do it with Nancy which would be highly inappropriate.)Quote:

So other characters are now being made to look bad to facilitate the Carters' screen presence. Mick's priorities were right Denise, with the partner whom Dean raped. It might've been about Shirley not Dean, but Shirley has done him no favours either, burning down his previous pub, keeping up the lie for years, forcing her feet under his table permanently and keeping up a row with Linda.
Mick wasn't allowed in the room. I'd expect her to have told him, though.Quote:

It's nice to see Patrick and the Fox sisters bonding. Who puts together a large piece of furniture in the wrong room lol?
Did anyone see what Kim's text from Vincent said?
The text said that Vincent wants to see Kim and Pearl.Quote:

I agree I liked her scenes with Shirley, I also like Shirley's friendship with Denise
does linda know the baby is deans or is guessing why cant alfie take the kids is he away
Enjoyed the scenes with Kim and Kat, for some reason it worked, also the scenes with Dot and Sharon were very moving. The episode was still a little too focused on the Carters. I know the Carters are DTC's pet project, but even so.
I think this stuff is what was filmed during the panto breaks as Phil and Ronnie are off screen also. Doesn't explain why Kat couldn't drop the kids off off screen though. He said he had a job at the weekend, so are we supposed to assume Alfie was also working in last night's episode?Quote:

I hated Kat's scenes last night! I know she's traumatised and I even sympathise with her plight, but I just don't enjoy watching her in that state (especially with the kids in tow).Quote:

did think linda would open up about her rape and baby being deans in front of shirley the goon in car is after kim ordered by vincent
