Eastenders scriptwriters conference: "What can we do today?",

"No idea. It's a bit hard thinking up new stories all the time."

"I've got it. How about a story about someone 'coming out' as gay?"

"Great idea and we can look at the parents' reaction. I don't think we've ever done that before have we?"

"No...well not for a couple of months at least."

Danny Dyer is impressing me as Mick, he can act

so kat is having twins and why hasn't alfie demanded a paternity test, kat does put it about maybe one if alfie's and one is belong to michael or joey

Michael's death was too long ago now and Joey was sleeping with Janine at around the time of conception. If they've seen the heartbeat on the scan it must literally have been the night they reunited. Roxy's face will be a picture.

I think Kat's learned her lesson now after being thrown out and having to build her life up from nothing; losing Alfie to Roxy for a year etc.

With Alfie's low sperm count they're likely identical.

With the Carters, I don't think they've had a storyline where a father is immediately supportive. Great to see Shirley's input from the Ben angle too.

I think the writers have had too many liquid lunches.

Danny Dyer is impressing me as Mick, he can act

He's grown on me I must say. He just seemed far too cocky in his first episode.

He's a perfect fit for this role and that attitude he's displaying goes with the character and the territory.

[Perdita]

I agree with GloriaW, I quite like him
