What do we all think of Steven since he has been back? Personally i can't decide what i think of him, he seems ok one minute but then changes my mind
I like him.. he is a bit strange and mysterious.. I have to say a much better actor than the last one... i want to trottle him.. he was just so annoying everything he came on... Like the new Peter.. I prefer the old one..
I liked him better when he was played by Edward Savage, this Aaron bloke is a bit creepy :lol:
All that shaking the other night was creeping me out
I think hes great! A total improvement!
Really like him - played by a very good actor. He's portrayed Steven really well so far, i hope he stays on long term.
i personally think steven is great. he has some looks on him unlike when he was younger!
when ian was going round that flat in the episode the stalker was revealed ... that was scary!
Aaron is a superb actor - far better than Edward Salvage. I really like Steven but I think he needs help and I have to be angry with him for what he did to Ian though I am sorry for him too. I wonder why Jane is cold towards him at the moment - I mean she certainly doesn't suspect he is the man who stalked her husband and drove him crazy.
I am loving Steven, he is great - mysterious and broody
You took the wrds right out of my mouth - mysterious and broody - exactly.
I wonder if her instinct tells her there is something wrong about Steven - I mean you can pick up subtle signals about a person even without realising it.
He was seriously creepy lastnight standing outside Jane's bedroom, there is so much they can do with him i just hope they do it
I really like him, i think that he is really good actor compared to the last one. I think the storyline is really good as well though which is helping.
I agree Katy. He is brilliant. I can't wait till tomorrow.
He is good because he is creepy but i'm still prefering Edward Savage, im sure if we see more of Aaron though i will warm to him
Mmm maybe. I know she was worried about his brother and sister not taking in their dad's disapearance while he was around and then shewas moved by Lucy's affection for her half brother. Yes that was a tactless thing to say at that point in time but ithe way he said it suggests to me that Steven has a crushon Jane and actually it is very common for young teenagers or adults to have crushes on older adults - well maybe sher didn't notice/realise as she's too busy worrying about Ian - but I wonder why she is angry just because he has a crush on her. He did apologise. Mmm.
I do think Steven has a crush on Jane - he's very clumsy and nervous around her
I dont think Jane knows - why would she, she just finds him odd after he said that toher the other day
No I don't believe she knows. I wonder why she should find him odd though. I mean it was tactless yes and showed he wasn't thinking but it doesn't mean he's odd - besides it is true. She could have met someone else.
I like the new Stephen. He seems to suit the role a lot more than Edward Savage did, and I really like the way he is with the twins, especially Lucy. He seems a lot more grown up than 17, and Stephen didn't seem 12 when he left for New Zealand and was played by Edward Savage.
Jane definitely doesn't know. She might think he's a bit unsettled at supposedly coming back to see the father than brought him up after having such a hard time with his real dad, as Pat said; and to find that he's not actually there. She definitely did have her reservations about him even before he made a pass at her though; Lucy didn't like her much as it is, maybe she feels that with someone around of similar age to that that Craig was, she will be wanting to impress him, too, and feels that Lucy will push her out completely.
No disrespect to the actor but I thought the old Steven was quite wooden. I didn't really like him and forgot him completely when he left but Aaron is a wizard actor - he is fantastic. I can't wait to see what will happen tonight. You're right, he does seem more grown up than 17 and Aaron certainly does "creepy" well.
Alot of emotions we saw from Steven yesterday, he was on edge - trying to keep himself together
Aaron was great showing different emotions he was going through
I agree he does seem older them 17, he's gonna be 18 on boxing day :)
I thought Aaron was 19?
Yes his range of emotions yesterday was superb. Its sad he will be gone after Moday but nevermind. He may be back in 2 months. Roll on tonight.
^ Aaron is 19 :)
I thought Steven was 18, but judging by when he was born it makes him 17 right now
Steven is 17 or 18 i think - definitely old enough to have a driving licence.
Wow - fantastic episode
Aaron and Adam were great as were Melissa and Laurie
Steven was going to shoot himself
30 minutes just flew past today, i was gripped till the end
I am glad Ian and Steven actually talked about loads of stuff - and making sense of everything
Jane really came in feisty, not surprised there and then smacking Steven, they both really rile each other on, and Steven deciding to shoot himself, and all of them just went to stop him, no wonder the the gun went off
Simon probably just resented him, and thats what made things worse and also Cindy messing with his head esp as he mentioned the prison visit
He's very confused and mixed up, Simon/Cindy/Ian are all to blame here really, and also Steven himself
It makes me wonder did Cindy love her kids
My heart went right out to Steven in tonight's episode. If only Jae han't come just then Ian would hve hugged Steven and Steven would have cried on his shoulder. I don't believe Ian was to blame. He did his best by the boy and was understadably angry but when Steven began to talk he seemed to get less angry. Was Steven going to commit suicide? I'm watching the repeat at 10 so I'll look carefully. I thought it was going to be really violent but it wasn't after all. That was a bad move on Luy's part - calling Jane. It would have been better if she hadn't. Ian dealt with it best apart from trying to phone the police. I can understand Steven and i know in hostage situations you obey the captor and the last thing you do is contact anyone - especially police.
Ian mentioned during his conversation with Steven that Cindy always looked out for NUMBER ONE,, so I am assuming she may never have loved her kids but her SELF.. She was selfish to the end ...
Wonder if Stevens dad Simon will come and help Steven thru this ??
Seems like Lucy had had some bad luck with two guys doing something violent to some one she is familiar with ( Craig and Steven)
The boy needs serious help and i hope for the sake of him and his family he gets it, sooner rather than later
Steven was going to put the gun on his head, but Lucy grabbed his hand then Jane and Ian launched forward - a struggle then a shot
From the EE site/episode guide
Lucy comes back, with Jane. After a tearful reunion with Ian, she punches Steven. Full of rage, she asks who the gun is for – will he turn it on himself? Steven shakily gets to his feet and agrees it might be the answer.
Lucy can’t bear to see her brother raise the gun to his head, and grabs his hand to wrest it from his grasp. Ian and Jane lunge forward, and in the struggle, a shot echoes into the night.
I had no sympathy whatsoever for Craig. He deserved to be imprisoned and Lucy was foolish. she didn't know him that well and should have listened to her dad's advice. Steven's case is completely different. He is ill and messed up. He seemed to really repent his actions, considering he was desperate enough to attempt suicide. I thought Ian was omn the point of forgiving him because it was obvious that he was unhinged but I'll say this for Steven - he never actually attacked anyone and actually the gun goes off accidentally.
I woke spontaneously at three this morning and couldn't go back to sleep so i thought I would dwell once more on yesterday's episode. I respected Ian very much and my heart went right out to Steven.
Steven did tell them all to go many times before that gun went off so it is their faults for not doing so
Maybe, but I suppose they didn't want to watch him commit suicide. Despite their anger and urt at all the paiin he has caused they all have some compassion for him. He is family after all.
I agree with you. They should not have tried to take it away from him. Angry as Jane was she should have calmed down when she saw he was willing to kill himself for what he had done. Ian succeeded in calming him somewhat before making the mistake of trying to take the gun. They should just have talked to him. A gun is very dangerous and could go off accidentally.
Precisely, never launch your self at someone holding a gun no good will come out of it, as prooved lastnight, Jane doesn't entirely understand why Steven is the way he is but Ian does so he should have just tried to talk him out of doing something very stupid
