I was expecting someone to try and stop Mick and ask what was up and did think it would be Phil or even Lee

If Linda is gone to her mother's pub, hope she brings Elaine back with her

exactly makes no sense for phil not to react esp if mick was hurting people its not just about shirley its about everyone, surprised if sharon didnt encourage phil to try and stop it

itd make more sense if he was ignoring shirley on purpose after how happy he was last week and didn't want sharon finding out he knew or couldnt help incase it annoyed sharon. just struggling buying phil & sharon is happy ever after

as you said it was predicted by many as we had the kat/zoe reveal done before

tonight's episode was better than xmas day's episode, loved mick going mental, shirley knows dean is messed up yet still believes him wonder where they will live now

sharon is meant to be the love of his life and he has waited 20 years to marry her..and yes as i keep saying he was very happy in the scenes with shirley last week

phil is still lying to sharon about knowing shirley is micks mum. the writers cant honestly expect us to forget this

what was with him suggesting ronnie kill nick????

I think Phil offered to kill Nick himself.

Probably not, but I think it's the writers' intention to keep them together for the foreseeable future.

Phil simply doesn't care enough about the Carters to get involved. As you say, Shirley wasn't even there.

He did, yes, but Ronnie said no (for Charlie and Dot's sake). I think she's regretting it now! :D

I hope everyone was satisfied with the Boxing Day episode. We were given the high drama and action that many felt were missing Christmas Day. I absolutely loved it but I wish we'd had an hour-long episode again. Maybe it was a good thing though as the writing was tighter this time.

Poor Mick's life's in tatters (but his fury was pretty awesome to behold!). I'm soooo relieved he didn't doubt Linda for a moment. I'm a bit worried about Nancy's reaction though as she's doubted her mother about Dean in the past.

I'm very glad that the mother reveal didn't overshadow the rape reveal. There's plenty of time for Mick to come to terms with Shirley being his mother now - as long as she finally accepts that Dean's a rapist.

The way everyone scurried out of the way of the furious Mick really made me laugh lol. :D

10/10

Yes, Dazzle, I agree. The Boxing Day episode was much better than the Christmas Day one.
