anyways who criticises eastenders needs to watch the last few minute of todays episode! fantastic! arrival of 2 characters! cockney knees up! fights! a wedding! great stuff
some fantastic lines, and i wasnt expecting the pat/yolande stuff until next week!
superb episode! :lol:
"You've been sleeping with that old tart?!!!" :eek: :lol:
"Ey now you hang on a minute!!!" :eek: :lol:
Dear god, that was dire.
It was great up to the bit in the Vic. Then it was just terrible.
Kevin annoyed me really - he was too loud. I hope he settles down a bit because the character was alright.
haha i thought the episode was great and kevins caracter was great!
I like Kevin, "Shut it you tart" :D
"Have you been sleeping with my husband!?"Quote:

Like I said it was great up to the bit in the Vic. I just felt the fight was contrived, as well as badly co-ordinated. Suddenly everyone starts fighting, Yolande and Patrick's marriage breaks up, but it's all alright because "we wouldn't want to be anywhere else!" It was too birthday-ish -- I half expected everyone to stop turn to the camera and start singing Happy Birthday.Quote:

good old Phil Daniels adding some much needed humour to the soap, he's going to be a great addition well done EE. A good enjoyable episode particulary the brawl, now that was some fight hilarious.
Yes I thought there was a lot of Frank in him too. I don't know whether they should copy his catchphrases, they're Frank's. Although maybe that's the way a lot of people speak in the eastend. It's strange really because Kevin has nothing to do with Frank. Brian is Pat's first husband, who is related to Kevin. I suppose those are the kinds of men she goes for.Quote:

I didn't think the way Bradley reacted to Stacey was nice. She was just telling the truth, and from what she saw earlier in the day (Patrick and Pat smiling and kissing on the street, which it turned out wasn't what she thought she saw), suggested that Patrick was never going to leave Pat. Obviously she can't stand to see women being taken advantage of.
Welcome to Walford, and that by Pauline, she just lightened up for a change without her eyes rolling I nearly did not recognise her.
lol. I liked that line. New people coming into it, the Wicks family forming, it was like the beginning of a new era. It is like that now in EE, it seems to be changing by the day, so many new characters, the young and the old all mixing in together. It's great!Quote:

I watched tonight for the first time in ages and really enjoyed it - it was nice to see a smile on Paulines face for a change.
what a cracking episode!! loved it at the end it was hilerious
Loved last night's episode. The best episode of this week in my opinion. I really like Kevin. I think he is a great character and the fight at the end was really good.
Yolande: You slept with my husband?
Pat: I don't remember doing much sleeping :D Brilliant line!
I thought Bradley's reaction towards Stacey was really horrible, all she wanted to do was tell the truth :confused: and i was so glad to see Pauline get married and smile :) Like many people have said, it is like a beginning of a new era for Eastenders :)
Well Stacey must have known what Yolande's reaction would be. So I think that Bradley's reaction is not that horrible.Quote:

When I saw Friday's epi, I thought Bradley was being harsh, but after thinking about it I can see both his and Stacey's side of it. I still think Stacey should have told Yolande somewhere less public, but then that's not her style! :DQuote:

the last episode was great! i like the Wicks family, they're great! Kevins a great addition to the square! but we didnt really see much of Carly! lol Kevin and Denao have a real father and son bond the way they were joking around at Pats lol xx
Didn't enjoy that. Apart from some bits with Dot and Pauline, it was very painful to watch. The fight at the end was atrocious. For a big episode, I was NOT impressed.

was it just me or did everyone else want to sing "parklife" when they seen kevin?
Yes i did i kept thinking Damian Albarn was going to drive through Walford, i like his character from what we saw of him. The wedding reception was funny with the fighting.Quote:

I think I have watched once in the past 4 weeks now and I have followed EE since the start. Even if Pat/Pat wasn't bad enough, I don't think I really want to be watching for what appears to be lined up for us.
kevin looks like a great character. carly looked realy ugly in that scene, i know shes not really like that but it was funny. patrick's had it coming to him, the stupid git. go stacey, dunno what bradley's problem was. yay, pauline and joe. boo, joe has a secret. more man trouble. blah blah blah.
damon albarn lol. if my mate saw you calling her fave person on the planet damian shed be like NOOOOOOOOOOO! just in case you were interested.Quote:

Really good episode tonight. Thoroughly enjoyed it. :) Just the parts with Kevin I wasn't too keen on.
Aww, poor Ian. I know he can be annoying but I feel sorry for him, having lost both his parents.
I hate the Pat/Patrick thing. What exactly was the point of it all? It all seemed so random, especially as it looks as though Patrick will give up the car lot. It seems like the only reason they gave him the car lot was so that they could put him with Pat for a contrived fling. No character development or anything. :wall:
Not sure about Carly. I have not taken to her in the way I took to Bradley (i.e I liked him after his first episode) but I will give her a chance.
Adam gave a convincing performance there! Jane is so sympathetic, he should hold on to here for dear life.
The story could be that of real life. It is so utterly freak to go and visit someone and at the same time they have an accident. My dad went to visit my grandma in South Africa she died on the night when he supposed to fly out there, she wasn't even ill. Real life can be so bizarre you couldn't make it up.
I'm not sure about Carly either. There wasn't anything dislikable about her, but at the same time, as you said Florijo, I didn't take to her instantly either.
Not a bad episode but I am gutted that they are killing Kathy Beale off. The short-mindedness of the bosses is bewildering. There's no need to kill her off just to create a plot, where does it end?
Great performance from Adam Woodyatt, proving that given decent material (NOT Free Wellard), he can put in a sterling performance.
The rest was a bit dull to be honest.
Haven't taken to Kevin/Carly/Nico at all yet, but it's early days so I'll keep my hopes up.
4.5-5

Poor Ian ive not really been a fan of him but tonight bless him i felt sorry for the guy great acting from Adam even if he did find out right at the end cant wait untill tomorrows episode to see Adam's portrail of how Ian is feeling right now.
Cant belive Eastenders are killing Kathy it seems all the old characters are leaving (even ones who left ages ago) and they are making it into a whole new soap that views will no longer recognise if they carry on ive been a fan for years but even i ardly recognise it anymore.
I didnt think much of Kevin tonight he was way better on friday night not likeing Carly alot but she may grow on me.
Felt sory for Stacey tonight though having near enough the entire square hate her even Bradley the one person that seemed to truely like her since Ruby left.
Yolande gave a reasonable performance as the betrayed wife, and I did feel a bit sorry for her. Pat can be a bit self involved, but I do prefer her a lot more than Yolande. She doesn't care what people think of her, and she's confident, I like that in a character. You make one mistake and everybody hates you in Walford.
Felt sorry for Stacey tonight. Bradley isn't giving up the fight easily. I found Yolande's words a bit harsh as well. She was right that Stacey should have told her somewhere more private, but Stacey's not a bad person. She had no right to say that, she barely knows her.
I don't know what to say about the Wicks. Don't know them well enough yet.
Sad for Ian.
I agree about that okay yeah Stacey could have taken her aside and said it in private but the girl was looking out for Yolande bless her and Yolande was right nasty to her tonight i used to think Yolande was alright but now i dont like her very much at all Stacey is only guilty of being a good friend to Yolande and she should have realised that.Quote:

There is alot of Kat in Stacey i think and you can just tell that when Stacey is ready she will reveal all just like Kat did. Yolande was bang out of order tonight Stacey isnt a bad person she just hasnt had much love and care in life and therefore isnt able to show love and care back to people but when she wants to be she can be really sweet.Quote:

In Yolande's defence if someone announced my husband had been cheating on me to the entire pub I'd be pretty angry at them too. Yes, Stacey has her reasons and her background that causes her to do things like that, but unless I know someone's background when they do something like that my first thought isn't "Well I won't say anything because they might have had a horrible home life."
i agree i think yolande was only angry and that is why she acted like that. she is more angry that stacy told her in public.
pat is really doing my head in at the moment she thinks she is someone special
