If this is the case i now understand why thursdays episode was worse than the others last week i havent seen one good episode that has been written by him...he wrote Dennis' murder and that was no where near as good as it could have been if some of the others were writing itQuote:

I was actually suprised by last night episode. from reading the spoiler it made it sound that Ian was just been spiteful to Phil about keeping ben away from him but he has real reasons. Excellent acting by Adam. :clap::clap::clap:
Yeh i read the mag and it sounded like Ian just said no you aint having Ben for no reason but he was upset so i could understand why really...fab acting from AdamQuote:

Agree about Dot's reaction to finding out about Johnny and Dennis. She treated Dennis as a son and it was a poor way of writing her reaction to finding out Johnny ordered his murder.
:eek: Ive not had my input yet about lastnight...how unusual...so i thought id come and do it
Cant have been very interesting dont really remember much of it but then i had just got my new phone so was messing about with that instad of paying any attention to Eastenders.
Ill start with Ben, how cute was he, getting all upset at the pictures, and im glad Peter ran after him. Could Jane not have taken Ben with Phil if Ian was busy going through Kathy's stuff.
Did i miss something...Ian said when Lucy gets back they will go to the theme park...when did she go anywhere or is this another moment that just happened with no warning.
I think Phil was a bit out of order demanding that Ian canceled the trip to the theme park just so he could see Ben it could have waited till another day
Bless Ruby seeing all that in the papers. Wasnt Stacey brilliant...cant believe Bradley thought she was with another man...i just wanted Stacey to tell him in the pub what was going on even if she said Ruby is at mine i cant say alot else but she needs me right now or something very brief like that
I dont think alot else happened so ill leave it there...i actually managed to remember more than i thought
I am glad Ruby admitted to Stacey that she was acting like a bitch when she last seen her and a great line back from Stacey where she said "Don't worry, i can be a bitch sometimes as well" :D
No-one knew where Ian was. Jane and Phil didn't know he was going through the photographs. By the time Jane realised what had happened it was all too late.Quote:

Jane could have just said to Phil "look Ian obviously has his reasons why dont i come ith you instead"Quote:

Also, since when have you had to book to go to Theme Parks? :searchme:
Uhm if you write for Eastenders, you can come up with anything?:lol:Quote:

omg! i thought that was dennis runnign through the square at the start it looked liked him a lot! especially because dennis used to jog around the square a lot in the morning
yeah that puzzled me too? theme parks are just there to go to
I would have thought the residents of Albert Square would be wary about theme parks follwing the last funfair they had :nono: And no Den Watts around to save the day :(Quote:

Bit harsh though Sonia. :nono:
Jeez, Sonia is a right bitch. Anyone would think it was Martin that had the affair!
I know! Poor Martin! He's grown into a real family man. He loves Sonia to pieces, he loves Rebecca just as much, and now Sonia's run off with somebody else. And he's just mean't to get on with his life. I just don't understand Sonia's way of thinking at all!Quote:

Fair enough if she doesn't want to be with Martin anymore but he's the father of her child, she can't just disown him, just like that.
Well i cant believe im even going to let these words enter this message but i hated that episode it was absolute rubbish for once i agree with any comments that might suggest that episode was crap.
Sonia was nasty she should have let him speak it was obvious he wasnt there for a row. I hope Martin doesnt back down and forgive her
Phil was rather nasty to Jane he deserves to be reported for that in hope that he will realise he was to harsh and over stepped the mark there.
The rest was crap so im not even going to give it my time to go into but i will say poor Jake felt sorry for him tonight
Sonia deserves everything she gets. No one should be on her side because she cheated on her husband. End of story. I wanted to smack her and Naomi so many times tonight.
Also Naomi really needs a new coat. Her current one looks as though she's going to a fancy dress party dressed as a rather dull worm.
A really good episode tonight. The Jane/Phil/Ian stuff was my favourite bits tonight. I really don't like Phil though because he thinks he can get his own way all the time. The Martin/Naomi/Sonia stuff was good as well but i really feel sorry for Martin. He needs his friends round him right now. Overall 8/10 :)
They have totally ruined Sonia now. There is no need to treat Martin like that and I feel really sorry for him. She deserves everything she gets.
I wonder what Natalie Cassidy thinks about Sonia's personality transplant.
I don't think she'd like being mean to James, they are really good friends in real-life. But she's an actress whose good at what she does so it doesn't really matter does it?!Quote:

well has for that phil i have really gone off him! he is so selfish i cant believe the way he is acting with jane and ian
EastEnders tonight returned to the same old drivel we have come to expect in the last three years. That was abysmal, and only the ending saved any face it had left.
Gus once again turns into Agony Aunt. :rolleyes:
The Joe/Bert 'comedy' stuff at Dot's was abysmal. Also this 'Joe secret' is just so boring. Spit it out dude. :rolleyes:
Sonia thinks she is doing no harm in the Square whilst shacking up with Naomi. Give over. :rolleyes:
Phil has eighteen personality changes in the episode, as once again the Phil/Ian feud rears its ugly head. :rolleyes:
That party at Gary and Minty's was pure cheese. :thumbsdow
Dull dull dull. Must try harder :thumbsdow Nick should return and bump off half the cast. :thumbsup:
3.5/10
yes very boring has usual but eastenders has been dull for a long time now
I thought it looked quite sunny when Martin was sat on Arfur's bench? :confused:Quote:

When he's in a bad mood (which is nearly always), Lanky Moron blocks out the sunlight. :moonie:Quote:

Usually when someone does something wrong they come down on you like a ton of bricks, but it's not happening with Sonia. Look at all the grief Martin's had in the past. When people found out he was Rebecca's dad, when all that stuff happened with Jamie. And I'm sure people would have been up in arms if Martin had gone off with another woman, and took up with her across the street from Sonia.Quote:

Really the reaction is bizarre!
i do hope martin gets to see hes daughter still tho
I think you've hit the nail on the head. Most of the BBC tends to be politically correct so it shouldn't come as a big suprise.Quote:

And since Margaret has got used to the arrangement at Pauline's, I think she would feel more comfortable organising things with her and Martin, other than Sonia who I don't think she trusts that much.Quote:
