Current Episode Discussion II

darren is such an idiot, i cant understand why Zac can'y get a girlfriend, hes quite cute especially with that scouse charm.

Do not get me started on Hannah, How pathetic was she. I hope she has'nt ruined John Paul and Spikes friendship, because of her pathetic ways.

I actually like how the storylines drag on - it may be boring, but i think it's a lot more realistic.

Obviously it's better for some story lines - as Katy said, something like a pregnancy has got to go on for a while to make it feasible - but sometimes HO just lets the story lines drag on and on unnecessarily.

Like Kathy trying to mother baby Leah, for one thing. It's such a weak story line that the more it drags on the more unconvincing it gets. As I have said, the actors are so bad that they cannot get away with all the attention they are getting. I find it pretty stupid the way they get Kathy to take control over the baby, put in a few eps featuring Amy almost getting close to her, only to have Kathy snatch her away, with Mike and Sarah protesting; and then, the next week, Kathy's never there, Amy doesn't care at all, Sarah's not particularly bothered any more and Mike's only too happy to take care of the baby!

I'm not saying I think the story line should be over in a week, I just think they need to adjust the continuity, and to either not feature the Barnes family at all or to stop switching focus between the row over the baby's carers and the row over Josh.

With a story line like the one involving Will and Zoe, it's OK letting it drag on a bit, but with a story line like the one involving Amy and her baby, it's just unrealistic. I mean, even the Max and Clare story line is getting a bit dragged out. Suddenly, apart from the money troubles, Max seems to have completely forgotten that Clare ever existed, and still does - and is running his club that she stole from him, practically opposite his flat.

Another big flaw of HO, apart from the actors, is, like I said, the continuity.

But that's just my opinion.

The couples night was funny last night, especially jacqui and aleksander.
Claire is so vile, shes getting worse.

Hannah is doing my head she needs to grow up and leave John Paul to get on with his own life. And What was with Sarahs hair.

I see they've started yet ANOTHER storyline involving Justin

What a great episode, a good punch up to end the week

[Chris_2k11]

I've missed loads this past week or so, really need to catch up. I've noticed the Will stuff is starting to come to a head though, bout time n all I think. I wonder if he leaves

[Katy]

Tonights episode is brilliant. He's a piece of work is Will.

Watched the omnibus earlier, good week! lmao how funny was it when Myra got the wrong end of the stick about Jake and Carmel

Myra - "Do you wanna cuppa tea?"
Jake - "Oh go on then, i'm spitting feathers here. Been at it the best part of 2 hours!"
Myra -

lmao she's so funny. Then when she was talking to Carmel about him been married, "Becca's dead love, god rest her soul!"

Carmel - "Becca?"

The Will stuff has been great, feel quite sorry for Zoe, he's such a phycho with all these games.. you can tell Zak's suspicious though. Can't wait till it all comes out, the students are really good at the moment. The stuff with Nancy and the pills was good aswell. Only thing letting it all down was the Michaela/Sonny scenes which weren't very interesting at all. Sonny and the rest of his useless family must go.
