Hi everyone I'm new here :thumbsup: just want to say how much I'm loving EastEnders again right now. I think the new cast is wicked and all fantastic. I can't wait until the autumn as thats when we have been promised the 'gritty stuff' will return.
I'm looking forward to tonght's episode. Seeing the aftermath of Owen's punch.. it should be a good epi.
This abuse storyline really isn't working for me. IMO, the reason Little Mo/Trevor worked is because we saw it all, we saw it build up, and while it got dragged out towards the end, the moment Little Mo fought back was earned. This isn't. We've seen Owen punch Denise once, and suddenly we're supposed to cheer her on for standing up to him? All we know is what we've heard, and I don't feel any connection to it.
And we've seen Denise, someone we were introduced to as a strong woman, suddenly reduced to a needy women making excuses. "He stayed with me, that means he cares," blah blah, and that isn't earned either because we haven't seen Owen wear her down or anything like that, so it just comes across as another sudden character change.
All there is is Denise spouting the same old lines. "If I'd done something different," and "It's just the booze, he's a good man really," and it just felt like it was taken from a by-the-book "How to write an abuse victim," manual. The only person I felt sorry for was Chelsea, because she's the only one who felt real.
it aint working for me either, ive just lost intrest in it, i couldnt really careless about the denise.owen storyline if im being honest.
oh martin and his birthday...again im not really interested.
I have to disagree. I think it's quite good.
I think the strong woman she came across as, was possibly masking what she was really feeling underneath. And this situation, has brought out her hurt/anger/uneasy-ness.Quote:

Another Great episode.
Superb acting from Diane parish, Tiana Benjamin, Lee ross.
I am enjoying denise/owen/kevin storyline-tommorow looks worse, oh no poor denise.
Nice touch with Dot and Kevin in that park or where ever it was.
Great too see abit of Tanya.

But don't you think that is the point of the storyline. Lil Mo was always wimpy but Denise is strong. She is a loving mother who although she knows her kids' faults, warts and all, will defend them to anybody. The fact that Denise would allow this man in the house near Chelsea or Squiggle with someone so dangerous when drunk, shows how much a hold he has over her. This storyline will be different because Denise has realised now that Chelsea is right. Owen does know what he is doing. He never hurt Squiggle and Denise has seen the light. I don't think that it is a character change at all. It's more complex than that.
