Eastender current episode discussion IV

[Dazzle]

Was that the original Tiffany? I read that it was but landlady dosent believe me .

Yes, Maisie's looking very grown up these days. I'd have been shocked to see her if I hadn't already seen recent photos of her in the media.

Lee is sucking the life from the show, just fess up and stop letting Johnny ruin your wedding day...

I found it very annoying that twice he tried to confess his feelings and twice he wasn't listened to! I know from my own experience how hard it is to start that conversation.

I think it was said he had norovirus along with Bianca.


The wedding episode was good and it's nice to see Whitney so happy (but also poignant because we know it won't last).

I find it frustrating that nobody has really noticed Lee's state of mind, and those who have noticed something's up have dismissed it as wedding nerves or money troubles. I remember us Corrie viewers feeling extremely frustrated that nobody noticed Steve was depressed, but at least this time it's being played out for more subtly so it's a bit more understandable.

Yep your right, it is her. She's just all grown up.

Still a mini Bianca

I wonder did she enquire about her ex boyfriend Bobby

What a sad episode, you could really feel Lee's pain and glad Johnny was supportive for once. Its not going to end well. I love how they don't bother to hide Linda's bump anymore. Whitney looked nice in her dress and I know some were complaining it was a boring wedding, but I thought they got it just about right. The duff duff was very sad.

A cold calling call centre is a soulless place to work, I managed an incoming call centre but the company brought in a new grade of employment, paid much less than my workers to make the cold calls. They just followed a script dictated to them on a screen with a couple of days only invested in training them. They either quit themselves out of depression after their over zealous start had burnt out or pushed out pre their trial period as they didnt sell enough.

Writing team are so on the ball, it is dog eat dog in that environment, you want to be at the top of that sales table and get the cash rewards on offer no matter what you have to do to your rivals to get and stay there.

Even in the incoming calls centre the targets where all about dealing with as many calls as they could per day, fall below a set level and wow... you may have had one call that took all day to sort but that wasnt an excuse, the in the know simply disconnected the call and moved on to the next.. I think we have all encountered that at some time.

This is EastEnders at its best, story telling, without being sensational, simple story telling. The Lee story line is heartbreaking, raw and uncomfortable to watch. So Lee is in a call centre. I wonder how this is going to pan out? you just want to hug Lee and tell him everything is going to be ok, it won't be this being EastEnders. Danny Boy Hatchard is playing a blinder. He really is. EastEnders are handling the depression story line better than Coronation Street did with Steve.

It is nice to see a different side to Belinda.
