I think it would work well but I think it should be Sarah Phelps who writes it.

I see your point but ee run that risk in pretty much all the storylines. If a storyline is not researched well and don’t ring true to the characters, when it comes on screen it will seem unbelievable and not staying within character. IVF - is such a huge issue so there is no quick fix. it has to be hadled senstively and with care. Not only does that storyline have to correspond with the traits of the character but equally they have to see whether such a storyline is plausible, taken Sharon’s situation into consideration. This of course, is in the biology sense as every woman’s situation differs. Sharon had an abortion and developed an infection when she stopped taking her anti-biotics many years ago. This was when she was told that she couldn't have kids. Any route that ee take with this, it has to be one that’s realistic to the situation in itself. As I said before research and character integration should be their top priority and are the key ingredientients when forming the basis of this storyline.Quote:

They have so much chemistry and they work well on screen. It would be lovely to see a soap couple work for once but this is ee so anything can happen. I never thought they got the chance they deserved last year and hopefully now they will have that. What I particularly like about this couple, is that they are both depthful characters looking for love and they have found that in each other. I have always been a fan of Sharon’s character, long before Dennis came on the screen. However I really do think that she has found her soulmate in him. This is my slushy side coming out, btw lol and believe me I’m not one for romance especially when it comes to fictional tv. I’ve seen her with partners in the past but with Dennis it’s very different and the portrayal of their emotions are magnified intensely through their interactions. It just seems so natural. For Dennis though and his loveless background, with Sharon he exerted that powerful emotion really well and that came across brilliantly on screen. Their partnership was the only storyline that got me emotionally invested, as they are characters I care about. However I don’t like the direction the scriptwriters took with them last year, especially when they performed personality transplants and changed their characteristics so it could suit the plot. Hopefully lessons have been learned and that continue to develop them through ‘character-centred’ plots not ones which reach the borderlines of sensationalism. Good knows we had plenty of that last year, not only with Sharon/Dennis/Zoe but quite a few.
Sharon and Dennis hold so much scope for the future. Providing that storylines are well written, I feel that they can really work and give us a further insight into the individual personas. Both have issues of abandonment and neglect which haven't fully been addressed yet. So many doors can open up for them. The thing that differentiates this couple from all the others in the square is that they hold more profundity and depth that they don’t run the risk of running stale like some. Well that’s just from my view. From Dennis’ sexual abuse, Sharon’s infertility, issues of neglect, Watts vs Mithchelle, maybe a secret child of Dennis's?, Dennis vs Johnny, Dens body under the cellar & how they deal with that are all potential storylines. That and many more. I await in interest!
Although Sharon may buy Chrissies story to begin with, I can't see her Sharon believing it for too long. She was there on the night that Den died so his decision to leave with another woman just doesn’t add up. If she wants to contact him and cant, she is bound to get worried. Regardless of how she feels about him, he is still her dad and it doesn't cancel out how much she loved him. She is coming back for closure and to tell Den that despite his attempts, her and Dennis are still together and going strong. Letitia Dean said in an interview that although she still feels hostile towards Den, she hasn't been able to cut him out of her life. I feel she will be devastated when she learns the truth.
As both Sharon and Dennis will be living in the Vic now, it’s sure going to get interesting. Chrissies conscience will eat away at her and the more Sharon will start to think about it, the more she will realise that it doesn't make sense. I can’t see Chrissie confessing though. She will hold out for as long as possible.
Chrissie won't even be able to let her guard down and relax in her own home - she is bound to crack sooner or later! Maybe we'll see a more vulnerable side to Chrissie in the weeks to come.Quote:

Me too, she's such an understanding woman, I think that's why Dennis loves her so much, she's put up with her dad all her life, and I think Dennis (jnr) is a breath of fresh air in comparison. Dennis may have murdered somebody but Den (snr) is definetely the twisted one. And we've never met Dennis's mother but I would say Sharon is the complete opposite of her. Sharon is the woman Dennis would want bringing up his children, if he had any.Quote:

well said littlemo! i couldnt agree more, dennis and sharon would make such loving parents and plus their kids would be gorgeous! i hope they do have a little baby, bless 'em :)
Yes they would have to get a really beautiful baby to play their child. Unlike some other babies I could mention in soaps, but I won't because I don't want to be disrespectful. I like Aleesha in EE, she's pretty.Quote:

Dennis has had such a hard life and was treated like c**p when he was younger. He had no love and was resented as a child. Because of this, it's made him stronger and wouldn't want the same for his kid and give him/her the life that he never had.
Sharon is such a caring and sympathetic character too that she would fit in perfectly. She has always longed for a child and it would be great for her to get one through IVF. Her maternal instincts often come out with Vicki. She will be great with her own child.
It would be great to see a soap couple happy for once and I think Sharon and Dennis should be. They hold more complexity than every couple in the square and like you said, much scope. There are so many possibilities there for them and ee are not short of ideas for them. I'm looking forward to what’s to come. :)
why would they have to do that? where is the American link?
soz ive just woke up so ent all there lol
bondboffin
yeah its great news good epoisode last night
yeah just read that seems good
sharon is gonna be a mommy, im gonna cry when she gives birth... at last the child she's always wanted
bondboffin
i think she means she dont like them so they should go back to america (that was my interpretation anyway)Quote:

Remember, we don't know for certain if this is going to happen because it was in the paper and papers are not always 100% accurate with their information. It is a possible route though and if researched and written well, I think they should go for it. IVF is a long process though so it won’t happen in a matter of weeks.
i think it should work out that she has her baby on xmas day 06
bondboffin
i know what you mean, in some soaps the kids they get to play someones child just doesnt look like their parents, if you know what i mean lol. i know it must be hard to try and find a child who looks like the mother or father but sometimes the kids they do get are just not very believable. anyway i agree they should get a beautiful baby to play their child and Aleesha is sooo cute!Quote:

I think she's going to be a very hands on mum, I don't think there'll be any nannies for her baby. Phil made all that noise about keeping Louise, but he hardly ever saw her, I don't think Sharon and Dennis are going to be like that.Quote:

They can take it in turns to look after the baby, it'll be great!
I think its a brill story! If ever a couple deserved happiness its them. I also think it would be a really informative story for real couples going through ivf. Me and my hubby are having problems concieving and to have it on my fav soap would be brill!I dont think ive come across a soap with an ivf story before. Well done eastenders if you follow it through!
brookside with bernie nolan's character and her husband...and it wud not work, bless them, they did it for years and nothing came aboutQuote:

And she wanted a proper family, which Dennis could give her, if they do manage to have a child.
I totally forgot about that! I used to be an avid viewer of Brookside, I can't believe that slipped my mind. I remember Adele got pregnant (Marty's daughter) and Diane was furious! It cost them so much money to carry on with the IVF, I'm not sure if it did work and she had a miscarraige, I may be wrong. But she ended up dying didn't she, in the explosion.Quote:
