Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

[Dazzle]

I thought Ben's reaction to Kathy was good but I'm not so sure about Ian's. He seemed to me to be way too accepting. Of course, nobody knows how they'll react to a specific situation unless they've experienced it themselves. Also, I'm wondering if, given Ian's emotional instability, he's currently on a high but will come crashing down to earth when reality hits him. I was expecting more fireworks from the episode to be honest.

It seems that Kathy's "coming out" to her kids was orchestrated by Gavin and linked to his plans for Phil. I'm not sure what that's all about...

I also like Ben and Paul together. They seem to have a genuine connection. I'm also glad Ben genuinely cares for Abi and isn't just callously using her (although she probably won't see it that way).

I like that Shabham wants to get to know Jade/Roya but prefer she does it more slowly instead of just telling Kush she wants her to live with them, both have just lost their son and need to grief together and begin to heal if that is ever possible

I agree, but I think seeing Jade with Dean forced her to make a quick decision. I want to protect Jade from him myself.
