Aww Abi is so cute She was totally the best thing of tonights episode .

I thought she was great aswell.

[JustJodi]

Ok granted I love Dot to pieces, but the past two nights has gotten me wondering if she is LOOSING IT ..Abi Branning has all the makings of being a sly lil story spinner like her Daddy Max.. but she was good !!!
Ghosts indeed LOL loved it how Mo shuddered at the thought of a dead baby ghost crying LOL
My hubby wanted to know who HAZEL was and I told him that was Garry's mom he was like ( hubby had missed the first two epi's with Hazel) I have a feeling this Hazel is going to SHAKE up Walford...LOL
Now that Jim told the immigration to put their skates on and get over to his house,, lets see how fast they get there,, and how Dot reacts ...

regardless of whether you like or dislike the storyline, dot and jim was fantastic in it last night.. they work so well with each other and it was touching. I liked the moment with gary and his mum (again both good actors)

[JustJodi]

I don't have a problem with the story line at all,, actually it is a good thing, its a BIG change from the normal episodes we see on EE.. Jim and Dot are great !!! Jim reminds me alot of my own step father, the rolling eyes, and the faces he makes when Dot says something DOT LIKE,,
I am looking forward to when Garry brings his mom home and introduces her to Minty and Naomi LOL

i knew he would came back for his mum. I love Garry.

Abi Branning was brilliant especially when she said to mo you hear it to about the baby.

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

I thought Abi was the best thing out of last night's episode. I thought she would spill all when Mo questioned her, she was brilliant! I thought the Dot and Jim baby storyline is rubbish.. For once I actually enjoyed watching them but then they brought in all this nonsence (sp?). All just got a bit repetitive with Dot's lines. Just a bit of me thought Jim would give in and actually think about it. I can just see Dot already going 'Oh Jim, what have you done?'

I think they way they introduced Garry's mum was pointless. You could see Garry just couldn't leave his mum on the road, glad he took her with him

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Hmm well I personally felt that tonight's episode was 'not up to it's standards' because it's a Friday! I thought the ending to the storyline with the baby was rubbish, just how I thought the whole storyline was this week with them. I loved everything which included Garry in it tonight. Finally making some use of some existing characters. Over-reacting with Mo but entertaining, quite. Bless Garry, he really dosen't want Minty and his Mum to get along to much does he!

regardless of whether you like or dislike the storyline, dot and jim was fantastic in it last night.. they work so well with each other and it was touching.

Well I agree with that of course. Nothing wrong with their acting. It's just the storyline which I absolutely hate.

[LostVoodoo]

does anybody else not like the fact that they're using a dead baby as a comedy storyline? ok, it was funny when Abi made Mo think it was a ghost, but then to drag in the baby that Gary and Lynn lost doesn't seem particularly tasteful to me.

[Kim]

I don't like that, either. It's good to mention her, I think, but it would have been far more sympathetic to any viewers who have gone through a similar situation if they did it with Garry telling his mum about it, rather than using it to freak Mo out, and then having her running over to Garry's place in order to apologise. I couldn't believe Charlie found the fact that Mo believed that it was the ghost of Lynne and Garry's baby funny, either.

I liked the way Garry's mum was, especially when she could tell Naomi was gay and wasn't listening to Garry when he told her not to chat up Minty. It was good to have Jim mentioning Sonia, and I liked the way that Dot wasn't going to have the immigration getting to Anya straight away, because she could see the good in her even though she initially shouted at her and was an illegal.
