I loved the puppy scenes too :) They were a genius juxtoposition to the tragedy of the rest of the episode in my opinion. Really heartwarming, which is very rare for Eastenders :D

i didn't like tonight's episode
a beautifully crafted episode. the opening scene was very powerful. the silence was deafening. thursday's installment is probably one of the best episodes of not only eastenders but any continuing drama i have seen. i can only think of one other episode that had this effect on me and that was when carol broke down after the death of billy.
The whole story line is leaving me cold, shame it's going to drag on until next February!
I couldn't agree more :)
I found the episode totally mesmerising. Setting it completely in the Beale house, and especially the silent first few minutes, was a brave decision and it really paid off. It didn't feel like a soap at all (I can understand if some people didn't like that). It felt real.
The best episode of EE since I started watching again early this year :thumbsup:
Wow at the Phil and Ian scene so raw and real emotional
the scenes with ian and phil were almost too painful to watch and ian running after cindy in the car was heartbreaking. nice touch having nicola cowper playing gina again.
More dreadful acting from Ian last night, even my hubby remarked on how awful it was! I can't take much more of it, so I think I think I'll take a rest from EE for a while.
