Current Episode Discussion VI

Brilliant episode. Loved everything about it, with Pat and Shirley's fight being the best moment of the episode. Shirley had a classic line with "How did he die? Did you get on top and crush him?" referring to Pat's late husband Roy. Classic line and it had me laughing! It was unrealistic with the police turning up straight away though, and it did let it down a bit, but Shirley and Pat trading insults and having that fight definetly lived up to expectations! Brilliant!

The stag/hen parties were good to watch. It was great to see people enjoying themselves, and Denise was on top form when she made her drunken speech. I'm also glad Deano forgave and forgot, and joined in his dad's stag party, wanting him to be happy.

The Stella stuff was good, this storyline is progressing really well. Dot and baby George stuff was ok.

The Li stuff was boring and brought the episode down for me.

And i loved the ending, it really had that shock horror "dum dum dum" theme back in it when Shirley said "I slept with him. Just. Last. Month" Fantastic episode!

Was it just me, or did the police woman who told Pat and Shirley to keep it down sound remarkably like Denise? I thought the bit where Stella was manipulating Ben with the scores and guessing how many it was out of was really well written. I thought the hen night scenes wouldn't be that good with the timing of it during the episode, but I thought they were great.

I thought tonght's episode was really good and I love Denise's hair - I hope she lets it down more often.

I thought he had the one night stan with Shirley when he left Denise. I mean he walked out on her and they were not together at the time and then got back togther lter so does it count as cheating?

Loved the Stella/Ben stuff. I wonder what Phil would do if he found out. I mean if it is a man he normallly hits the man but because its a woman he can't do that.

I suppose it does. Kevin probably expected Denise to be more forgiving than she initially was, knowing about Jimbo and then with all the Carly/Deano stuff coming out. They never actually said in words that the relationship had ended.

Yes, it was good to see that the Eastenders scriptwriters haven't lost their touch after all...that police van turning up straight away was just brilliant - so realistic. :wall:

I was sooooooo bored with the whole episode..I am actually looking forward seeing Stacey back on our screen and messing around with old wrinkly chest Max.
Growing reefer in Gus' pantry ??? Lemme think:hmm: :hmm: didn't Martin try the similar thing in Arthurs allotment shed ??????? I am suprised Mickey didn't tell GUS,, actually it is Gus' apartment he could have broke the lock himself and threw Li and Mickey out on the streets !!!!!!!! Li comes up with the biggest SOB :crying: :crying: stories and Mickey thinking with his lil head swallows the stories....:wall:

:cheer: Well said, i mean i know police can put their lights on if they are in a rush but getting there that quickly is not realistic at all they would have had to know that they was going to fight to have been there that quick, and where were they taking them, to a police station in Australia? they took longer getting back than they did arriving to the Vic :rolleyes:

Yeah. They can't very well say that they were on patrol in the area and that they put their lights on when they saw the fight, because there was no traffic, and there's been plenty of crime in the area, and they haven't established patrol before.

Yeah Jodi, Martin did try that in the allotment. Derek ended up in trouble for it and lost his job.

:rotfl::rotfl: how funny was Mickey last night at the interview and then the woman coming on to him.. I thought that was brilliant

Love the Pat and Shirley stuff.. both fab actors and they work very very well together..
