There are often characters who are out of work in EE but they never seem to claim any benefits at all. They are usually depicted as completely broke with no money at all.....except for the money they spend in the Queen Vic of course.

The "you'll find someone/there's someone out there for you" thing gets up ny nose too.
You don't have to have anyone.

True. They make you feel abnormal if you're not in a relationship and not seeking anyone. Just getting out of one myself, and it's a lot of trouble.

Unless you are old..then it's ok. :) Or if you are Mary-who is considered as odd. Hopefully Mary would find someone though..she really needs some action! :D

I'm so tired of Anna. I wish we didn't see her at all if she's like that to Roy. If I was him Anna wouldn't work for me anymore. But that shows what a kind person Roy is.

Hopefully Carla won't die in a crash-Roy would feel absolutely terrible now..

Me to... I used to like Anna but she is not coming across as likeable at the moment at all!

Love Roy and Carla scenes! They are brilliant!

I actually quite enjoyed Steph and Gavin last night as well. Luke and Maria however is dull dull dull.

am looking forward to next weeks episodes, its building up quite nicely.
