Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

I really enjoyed the two-hander with Max and Stacey.

I liked the explanation that Stacey didn't tell Bradley that she was the murderer, until the night he died, because she knew he would take the blame to stop her going to prison. It seemed like a reasonable excuse to kept him in the dark, which was the one thing that bugged me about Stacey being the murderer.

I liked the way that the upper-hand went back and forth between the two characters during the episode. It ended with them being supportive of each other, which was a nice change for EE.

Albert Square itself got the "duff duffs" this time.

I was kinda disappointed in the 2 hander episode tbh i expected it to be better

So Stacey was squatting in her mother's old flat yet how come Jean never tried there to find her and how did Stacey survive with no money and clothes and she couldnt eat for three days and she is pregnant - that was great writing

[parkerman]

Yes. Also, did they explain why the flat had been left empty for so long?

I think it was reasonable that Jean wouldn't have thought of looking in her old flat. Even if she did think of it, she'd probably assume that it wasn't vacant after all this time. No, they didn't explain why it was still empty, which they should have, really.

Surely Stacey could have used the money from her own bank account. I doubt if the police would have gone to the trouble of getting court orders to monitor her accounts/credit cards.

I can perfectly understand her not eating for three days after the shock of seeing her dead husband, and her guilt about his death, even though pregnant. I suffered a similar shock whilst pregnant and it affected me in the same way.

I loved the two-hander. Was sooo good! I seriously just love Jake Wood. He's amazing! It was so sad when he started breaking down on the square!!

well i didn't like this episode i fast forwarded but still only saw max and stacey so i turned it off and deleted it off my planner...how boring haveing just those two in didnt we see enough of them in the affair story line

I really enjoyed it.. I think Lacey and Jake are two fantastic actors and I was rooting for them both.. I didn't want Stacey to go to prison but I felt for Max not wanting his son to go to his grave with everyone thinking he was a murderer

I think Max would have shopped Stacey if she hadn't gotten out of the car that time at the police station... if she still kept saying NO he would have done something about it.. but it was well written, well done and I enjoyed it

.

the empty flat.. how many flats have you seen around the place boarded up and unused? I have seen loads so it didn't need to be explained.. stuff like this happens all the time..

I thought when Stacey visit Jean before she lived in a different place than the one Max found Stacey in

Yeah, I thought Jean lived in a house. I thought the two-hander episode was okay and well acted, but I thought I would enjoy it more. So a bit disappointed.
