I have to agree with what Florijo said about the Nick/Dotty storyline. I can't take it seriously either, its all so like something you'd see in panto, laughable more than anything. I can't imagine a little girl of that age going on like that either.
I don't like her and I also think her acting is terrible...
:ninja: When its bad EastEnders is appalling :ninja:
I can't believe the producer/directors actually looked at that and thought "Hey thats great TV!" :rolleyes:
I hate Nick. Not cos he's a baddie but because he is just so bloody awful. Badly acted panto.
This was worse than the fairground episodes. Nick holding all those people hostage with a chair leg :lol: Max, Phil etc standing around like muppets, unable to break down an old wooden door :lol:
:lol:
yeah it was awful haha.
they really should have thrown Bianca's jacket on the fire ;)
:lol:
Some awful acting. Cafe exploding was entertaining though. :lol:
I agree, don't know what happened with their acting there and the fire actually looked highly unrealistic.
Hope the lovely Ginga Ninja is okay though :(
This was the most pathetic episode, the explosion at the end was the best, everything before that was boring/terrible.:searchme:
For God Sake he had a stick in his hand, why didn't someone attack him sooner, he was drugged up/drunken state.:thumbsdow
What was going on with Abi's crying, was it like she forgot to act and decided to put her hand over her eyes, to pretend to cry.:thumbsdow
Sat down especially to watch this episode - wish I had waited for the omnibus edition on Sunday and continued to watch Emmerdale. Agree with all the comments above ^^^^ dreadful acting from some of the cast and pathetic storyline/directing.
Last night's episode was very unintentional funny :rotfl:
Was Max not worried about his son Bradley at all after all he was in the cafe also :angry: The hero of the day the Ginga Ninja :lol: (god i love that name) hope he is ok
I blame Dot and Nick for all this - she always knew he was bad
I quiet enjoyed it.. but was mad at Dot for still back up Nick even after all she was told by Dotty.... Will she never learn.. Explosion was good but I wish Lucy has been left inside, she is a proper little madam...
Nick holding everyone off with a stick, would you have tackled him. .he is mental and could have whack you
Hiding in the toilets? :lol:
One of the worst ever episodes of EE - Nick is a terrible villian this time around and the cafe explosion was comical
So who is this cute guy with Whitney?
Now we know, he is still around, with less injuries than Bradley :wall: FFS, scriptwriters, get it right, please, at least have Nick have a few more injuries than he had before he went into the cafe .:rolleyes:
I missed it tonight I was asleep, maybe I was better off :lol:
Definitely Chris. I wasn't sure what to make of the ending. It seemed that Dot didn't believe Nick because she threw him out but then it looked as if she believed what he was saying about it all being Dotty's idea :searchme:
Max really annoyed me tonight. He's stood by Lauren even though she tried to kill him and is having a go at Dot because she stood by her child who tried to kill her. It's not exactly the same I know but I thought that the way that he was taking it out on an elderly woman was horrible.
Now that we know that Nick is alive I've just thought of a good idea for a story Eastenders could use in a couple of years time.
Nick could come back, say "Hello Ma" and be nice to Dot. She forgives him, but all the time he is plotting to kill her to get her money.
I don't think this has been done before...:hmm:
Sounds brilliant. Why don't you contact the EE production team with your idea for a storyline, they might sign you up as scriptwriter :D
Thanks for the idea, Perdy, but I'm too busy with other writing projects at the moment...if you know what I mean:D
how did they all know that nick had escaped? they all knew before the forensics! i think dotty needs taking away she's scaring me
Presumably because he wasn't inside when they went it.
I hope Dot gets rid of Dotty, she looked really evil in the last scene :ninja:
Max was really mean towards Dot, but Dot did feel really guilty when Heather came to see her..
Did Christian really do this for the money? what is with the plans? where they done before or after the fire? If after, is he planning to fix the cafe before Ian gets back?
Christian does not seem to be like a person who would put peoples lives at risk ..I think he might have had those plans before ( if skinflint Ian would just loosen up and do something to that TIRED looking cafe) and now just brought them out when Lucy came in and saw them. That is just how i saw things, Ian would be tickled with a new cafe as long as it brought in tons of moola. But ticked off that he hadn't thought of it first..I can hardly see them rebuilding the cafe in a few weeks time before Ian and Jane get back, in fact HAS ANY ONE actually contacted Ian about the explosion ?? What ever happened to the PIG??? I must have missed that part ...
Nick is pure evil, and so is Dotty ( she is a scary looking little thing) Max was out of line when he was screaming at Dot. Have we seen the last of Nick ??? I sure hope so.
Another thing that bugged me, Nick walked out the FRONT DOOR, how come no one said any thing, I mean he had to stroll thru the square in order to get to public transportation??
Glad our Ginger Ninja is gonna be ok, but looks like we are stuck with the sad looking Syd..that little Noah is a cutie.
Ok Dawn has struck GOLD,, with that big stack of money from Phil,, yikes... wanna bet she will go out and splash it on clothes, and things for Summer and not use it to buy out Minty????:hmm:
The pig was sold by Mo and the cash for it given to Ian to make up for what Stacey owed him.
So I think we can all agree that Nick's return was a failure
Dot was probably lonely at that time, and Dotty was a bonus,, so of course she was lulled feeling like Nick may have "changed" I think it was always in the back of her head..yep Nick's return was a HUGE MISTAKE...why was he even allowed to walk out, does that mean he will be able to COME BACK at some point ??????:thumbsdow
Has any one heard if Dotty is going to GO ??? she is a horrible child.. she is really no better than Nick..:(
How much more of Dotty?
Why does Bianca always have to go on like a raving lunatic? Surely she must realise by now it does her no favours
It is beyond me how EE wins so many awards for crappy storylines. Having John Altman back on board should have been the biggest viewing atraction since Dirty Den served divorce papers on Angie on Xmas day way back in the early days of EE but again it has turned into a joke. I am disgusted with EE and saddened because Nick Cotton was my favourite cast member of all time and they have just made a mokery out of John Altman and June Brown.
I'm glad the Nick/Dotty stuff is over. Tuesday's episode was really disappointing, although the explosion itself was quite good.
Have enjoyed the rest of the week though!
I think the story line is going to contiune cos Dotty is still with Dot,,,I think we can all tell that Dot does not trust Dotty, she left those pills out intentionally.. but Dotty went for the cookies/biscuits instead...:searchme:
