Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

I'm hoping that Roxy sees sense and lets Peggy run the Vic, where she rightfully belongs.

No she doesn't. It's Roxy's pub now and she should run it how she likes.

[Dazzle]

I'll be surprised if Roxy doesn't make a mess of running the Vic, though.

It would've been nice of her to make Peggy feel included last night, even if she had to be firm and say that it was her pub now. She's always saying how much she loves Peggy, after all, so it would have been the sensitive thing to do to remember that it was Peggy's pub until very recently. I felt really sorry for Peggy at the end.

[Perdita]

They can't give Peggy the Vic back if she is leaving shortly. She will be hacked off about Roxy ignoring her offers of help and will leave AS, disappointed and moving in with Aunt Sal for a couple of years before returning triumphantly to rescue the Vic from whoever is running it then, because it will not be Roxy, that is for sure.

Not only about the lady from social services but where he pitched the lap top,, Ian is as dumb as a box of rocks,, doesn't he know where all the CCTV's are ?????????

[Perdita]

I guess he was not thinking about CCTVs at the time. I can't understand that he did not deny that it was Archie's laptop that he threw into the canal, surely any fingerprints will be gone after it being in the water for several days. Also doubt they can rescue the hard drive but I am prepared to be told differently on that one

[PILKY]

i dont think they can save the hard drive when it been wet

[Perdita]

That is what I think but there are more qualified people on here to either confirm or advise different

[Abigail]

After a week under water its highly unlikely that there will be any recoverable data left. I do have a couple of books on computer crime, when I can be bothered I'll look it up.

How can Ian possibly be charged with murder with no forensic evidence linking him to the crime scene or murder weapon and no confession? All he's admitted to is breaking in and stealing a laptop. I would even say the motive and evidence is so tenuous it wouldn't even reach court in the real world.

[parkerman]

in the real world.

Ah, but this isn't the real world is it...This is the wonderful world of Eastenders where anything can, and often does, happen.

[Perdita]

And so it does in the wonderful world of all soaps
