Current Episode Discussion II

I agree it was brilliantly done. The end scene had a similar feeling to it as Grace's death, not as emotional - but it had the same sort of vibe to it with Hannah breaking down next to her if you know what I mean. It seems to have been getting a lot of praise on the radio today aswell, and rightly so. Tonights is great too, some really touching scenes between Hannah, Sarah and Nancy.

Two fantastic episodes - i was in tears when Melissa collapsed and died and Hannah was just crying next to her! It was soo so sad and acted out brilliantly - Carla Chases and Emma Rigby both deserve an award for this - superbly done!

The scenes today between Nancy, Sarah and Hannah were also done brilliantly - i knew Emma Rigby would do this storyline justice - she has a great burst of acting talent, i think she'll go far.

I thought last nioghs was brilliant the scenes with Nancy andSarah and how they just wanted to understand, it was really moving, i liked the fact it showed even though Melissas dead Hannah is still not free of her.

I liked how the introduced Lauren and Danny as well adding a bit of humour to the episode which without wuold have been very dreary and emotional and upsetting, it was nice to get the contast right.

I think hollyoaks as been great at the moment and the storyline bas been really well done, I was in tears when Melissa died, it was really watch, and espically with hannah, and then last nigth when hannah was talking to melissa and talking about how it all started.

I think Hollyoaks is by far the best soap at the moment, not only does it cover serious stories it is also fresh and funny! I can be in tears one moment and laughing the next!
The anorexia story line has been amazing, anyone who says that it has been glamorized have obviously not been watching.

- Carla Chases and Emma Rigby both deserve an award for this - superbly done!

I agree! They deserve recognition for their work and so do the writers.

It was a bit harsh saying it was all John Pauls fault as if i rememeber Hannah was doing all the pushing in that relationship. The episdoes are brilliant at the minute. Loved Leo and the family trees.

Yeah but her rejection by John-Paul was the begining of the eating disorder. If you remember back to last Christmas and New Year she pretened to be ill so she could stay home while her family went to a New Years Eve party and she sat in the kitchen stuffing her face with food.

I know, I agree with the both of you, It was really the beginning of her illness and it was harsh him being told that.

[sam23]

I think that John Paul ending their relationship and her feeling she "turned him gay" because she was so fat and ugly was undoubtedly the start of her illness. However, she must have already had self esteem issues, if John Paul hadn't ever gone out with her there would have surely been another boy that broke her heart, and it would have disturbed her greater later if he had carried on their relationship.
It is unfair to blame John Paul, but I think it is human nature to try and find someone to blame, and no one likes to think they contributed to the situation. They are probably blaming him to try and ease their own guilt.

but as I said earlier, its probably due to her self esteem issues and all her friends and family should now try and help her through her illness, and stop pointing the finger!

[Katy]

yeah i understand and it properly was him that started it all but he didn't deserve for them all to turn against him. I forgot about new year.
