Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

[Dazzle]

The Bobby story has been a disappointment
over what it could be. Mainly writing ridiculous
scenes but for me also.Janes over- involvement.
I can understand panic-but she doesn't
think logically at all.
In real life if Bobby went along his current
path-she would be another early victim!

There was so much potential for seeing Bobby grow and develop into a psychopath, with the Beales being in denial about it for years. That could still happen I suppose, but far too many people know he killed Lucy to keep it quiet for much longer.

It's not just Jane that's thinking illogically, although she's the worst of course. Everyone involved is going to ludicrous lengths to cover for an accidental killing by a young boy. Even worse, they keep changing their minds episode by episode. Why for instance did Jane suddenly decide during the latest episode that she could live with Max being found guilty after the lengths she's gone to get him off?

None of it makes sense and it feels like the writers are making it up as they go along.
