Well I've just caught up on a week's worth of episodes after getting back off holiday loved every minute of it! It's been really exciting to watch- if a little cringeworthy. Unfortunately my vcr didn't tape the sound for the first Christmas episode- so I missed Stacey's speech in the Vic!

I just want to give Bradley a big hug! The scene when he told Max he still loved her almost had me in tears- although quite why he'd bring Lydia to the party and why he'd be so defiant to Tanya that him and Stacey wouldn't get back together if he did love her I don't know! But one thing I do know is that when all this comes out Bradley is going to be devastated!

Also having watched that I no longer have any time for Max! For him to do what he did by telling Stacey that Bradley wasn't interested when he'd just been pouring his heart out to him was unforgiveable!

This is Deano we are talking about!!! Im a little concerned as to how Bradley seems to have just been pushed to the side,And if you look on his page on the ee site,theres no mention of Lydia! Whereas on Staceys page as soon as she kissed Max it was put on,and then when they did "the deed!" they updated it straight away.I hope Bradley isnt going to end up dissapearing for ages with no storylines like they did with Deano and Mickey.Dont they listen to the public at all???HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!(by the way!!!)

I guess it's because technically nothing has "happened" between Bradley and Lydia yet in that way- they're supposedly "just friends"

Oh,im quite surprised cause ive heard her described as his new girlfriend a lot and also she was very touchy feely with him at the party and he was saying he wanted to show he had moved on! Im finding it a little confusing at the mo!Ive still never actually heard Lydia talk!!The other night was the first time i saw her!!

She has quite a posh accent.

I'm not sure what we're meant to assume has gone on between them off-screen since the office party- it just doesn't tie in Bradley saying he still loves Stacey but then 3 days later turns up with Lydia on his arm- then again I guess that could be Max's influence in the way he told Bradley to move on.

I dont understand how Max can love any of his 3 kids,and yet behave the way he is,especially the way hes behaving with Bradley! Why would you do that to your own son?also i do think Max will be going.It seems so unbelievable he could hang around after this,i could see him coming back at some point,that constant thorn in the Brannings side, i would have preffered to learn a little more about him,why he went to prison for a start.Maybe thats all going to be revealed in the fallout from all of this.

I do find the whole "stax" thing so unconvincing andi think people find it frustrating aswell,we had a perfect,interesting match,now thats gone and we are left with this?I suppose they are just trying to show they are finished for good.

It really is unforgiveable behaviour. I've said it before but I think when this comes out there is a chance Bradley will eventually forgive Stacey- especially now he's admitted to Max that he was the one treating her badly. However, I don't think there is any way on this earth he will forgive Max and you could well be right that Max will leave.

Max seems to be the thorn in everyone's side here. I think Stacey hit the nail on the head on Christmas day when she said "Me and Bradley were fine until you came along. If it wasn't for you then I might still be pregnant and I might still have my Bradley". I really don't understand what he's trying to do here- I thought he wanted to build a relationship with his son- not blow an already fragile relationship to smithereens.
