Great episode tonight! Loved Honey throughout the whole episode! Shes one of my favourite characters! Loved it when they gave her the gas and she went all silly! lol Jack and Peggy are so sweet as well! Im glad Garry finally put SJ in her place! overall 10/10 for this episode! Honey had me cracking up all through it!
It was nice. I do like Honey and Billy. Honey has some funny sayings.
It's not one of those episodes that you have to watch again though.
great episode tonight, Emma Barton was fantastic that girl has a natural timing for comedy 'Shut your bloody gob'. Aww Jack and Peggy are so sweet, I sure hope he stays for a while, those two are perfect.
Can I just ask when Honey was actually due? Isn't it a bit early..
I think they said on Friday or Monday that there was still another month to go
It wasw a great episode, another comedy one very good indeed. Aww Peggy and Jack, Bless. Honey was so funny and i loved when they had Billy faint and the midwife said MEN.
"How many kids have you had"
"none"
"shut you bloody gob then"
I liked how she kept sayng i hate her billy as well.
Honey was brilliant last night. Emma Barton must have spent time talking to women who have children cause I could totally relate to her going mental and yelling at the midwife.. I love her saying she wasn't coming out until she got her drugs... and the gas and air, brilliant, trust me, men do try it sometimes.. and it does make you that out of it.
Excellent episode, funny, sweet and charming. but still SJ does my head in and fair play to gary for say what we all think!!!
I agree with you BlackKat. I thought the "comedy" element was very clumsy and just didn't work at all. There was no subtlety about it. Clunk. Clunk. Clunk. I found it very tiresome.Quote:

Great episode loved Billy and Honey only downfall was SJ i hope they get rid soon Garry was so right in what he said Minty is a idiot and a fool you think he would have learned after all his running after Sam.
A good episode last night, some great comedy again especially from Honey...i suppose EE is just showing the contrast as the rest of the week will beSpoiler:
I am glad that Jack and Peggy have finally got together too. :)
awww im so glad they had the baby, they both looked so happy
can tell they is something wrong with the baby its face didnt look right which made me a bit sad!
poor minty getting the mick took out of him by that stupid sj!
nice when peggy and jack finally got together
awwwww i know i felt a bit sad at that point, but honey billy and janet look great togetherQuote:

I wanted to but they wouldn't let me leave the ward... women react differently in Labour, some take it in their stride and others like me, yell and scream and demand something to stop the pain :rotfl::rotfl:Quote:

I'm afraid cannot see Emma doing this Down's storyline justice, nor EE for that matter.Quote:

I enjoyed it I thought the comedy elements really worked and Im glad they didnt decide to opt for serious all week. I think Emma will do it very well to be honest, I think she'll prove to be very good like Bradley Walsh was in Corrie when he did drama.Quote:

Is anyone finding the Garry/SJ/Minty storyline a bit familiar (Hollyoaks: OB/Clare/Max maybe?)
Im bored of SJ she just annoys the hell out of me! I don't know whay Minty is so gullible either!
I'm liking the Mitchells at the moment. I'm glad Phil is helping Billy out, he does show a caring side at times. Jack is nice, and him and Peggy together do make sense.
Feeling sorry for Billy and Honey, they should have done the test.
I don't know how that nurse could keep her composure. The doctor should have told Honey sooner than that. You can't keep somebody hanging on in that way.
I also thought that woman in the bed next to Honey could have been a bit more diplomatic. She should have told her to speak to somebody, but you don't have to worry the poor woman, half to death!
All in all I think the process of determining whether the baby had downsyndrome took too long. The nurse knew from the start. The doctor should have been there, there and then to do an on the spot examination, and then told Honey straight away.
I was thinking exactly the same thing when I was watching it tonight!Quote:

I cant stand SJ and I have a problem with the character of Minty didnt he use to be a bullying landlord who tormented Laura for rent now he's an easily led and pushed over prat.
She suspected the moment the baby was born though. She came out with a startled look on her face on Tuesday, and then she came to see the baby again, before she informed the doctor. Maybe that is the policy, I just find it a bit strange.Quote:

Garry strikes me as the kind of guy who'd say, she's a stripper. I don't care about anything else. Give it up for Minty! That kind of stuff.
I think the most important thing about last night's episode was that Winston had a speaking part.
I hope this is the start of something big for him...:cheer:
Fed up with the Minty/SJ storyline - how much longer do we have to wait for Minty to realise that SJ is a bludger and has been taking him for a ride? Phil must be paying Minty an awful lot in wages if Minty can afford to rent SJ's flat for her *and* pay his share of the rent in the flat he shares with Gary and Naomi.
Carol :cool:
Carol.. What I am dying to know is Who exactly is Sid? This is just a big Scam on minty, poor blokeQuote:

a very moving, well performed and written episode, I was in tears by the end, Perry Fenwick and Emma Barton were fantastic.
Agreed! Thought Pat was great too! She's got such a good heart! And she's always there for anyone who needs help. I wish she was one of my relatives. :)
I reckon it's her boyfriend from Aussie.. and they are covering up as a brother..Quote:

Sat here still in tears after tonights heartbreakign episode. Do Honey and Billy keep baby Janet?
here here! she's one of the best eastenders characters ever, and yeah, now i think about it, i'd love it if she was my aunt or something!Quote:

Beats me! It must have been Peggy who invited her, because Honey and Billy didn't want any visitors. It was a bit of a cheek to just assume it's o.k to bring them.Quote:

Luckily her baby was perfectly healthy.

I do feel that Honey's reaction isgenuine and played well by Emma Barton, Perry Fenwick gives a rather good performance as well. Well done to the both of them.:clap:
It really was an excellent episode last night, they handled it with love and understanding. Honey and BIllie reacted how any parents would when they find out after the birth, I'm surprised they weren't offered the choice to have an amnio.
I loved it when Pat told Billie she knew, it's good to have someone who isn't judgemental be there to listen to you.
