Well said... I was shouting at Phil when he said to Lucas "I would have spotted something" (or words to that effect), What about Stella, you let her in your home and you hadn't a clue... and to Ian.. he is one to talk too.. his son locks him up and yet he accepts him back just so steven can lock Lucy away.... that is abuse too!!

Patsy again was amazing... I was in tears when she talking to the police after they asked how she met Tony and again when Liam was hugging her..:(

I still think that shouting at Whitney is not a great reaction. She needs to know that her relationship with Tony was not good. But not like this surely. It is like the Stockholm syndrome, where prisoners even can get romantically involved with their kidnappers. And even when they are released stand up for their kidnappers. It all sounds contradictive but that is how our coping mechanism works in these circumstances.

I think it is valuable to base storylines on real issues. Kudos to EE.:clap:

I think that is another point the EE are getting across, shouting doesn't help...
We are looking at 2 very heartbroken women.. one who was betrayed when her lover slept with her daughter and the other is been told that her love was wrong in the sickest sense...

Whitney knew she was betraying Bianca and yes it was wrong but finding out that what she thought was real was just one be lie and she was been abused, not loved.. she is still in love with Tony as is Bianca.. it is going to be tough on them both...

I agree with you so far. But one is the adult here an the other the child. And I can understand emotions running high and so.

true and the adult should know better but this is Bianca.. can you expect her to react any other way so it is staying true to her character so I think EE is doing fantastic on this issue..

Fantastic last two episode. I really hope Patsy is nominated for an award this year (instead of the likes of Lacey Turner AGAIN). She has really impressed me and yesterday was heartbreaking to see. Her return has proved an asset to EE so far and I think the young actresses who play Whit and Tiff have proved to be as well.

Phil and Ian are such hyprocrites but I guess it is the mob mentality kicking in and it was good to see Denise cut them down to size with logic.

I totally agree that EE have done a good job on this. Focusing on the impact on ALL the inner family as well like Liam and Tiff.

EE should focus more on other characters and stop using them as fodder for the Branning/Mitchell families. It has been a nice break to have little Branning/Mitchell involvment this past few episodes.

I love eastenders at the moment :cheer: Its great.
Great acting and brillantly done

I watched the Omnibus on sunday at all of it was brilliant. the actting was top notch especially Bianca, she was fab.

And Little Tiffany when she was talking to the social worker! What a cracking little actress.

Friday was Brilliant... how evil did Tony look?? I am glad that Whitney is going to speak up.. she now knows that Tony didn't mean a word of what he said
