the scenes with ian and phil were almost too painful to watch and ian running after cindy in the car was heartbreaking. nice touch having nicola cowper playing gina again.

I have been staggered by such a powerful performance from Adam Woodyatt. How an actor can switch that scale of emotion on and off is beyond me. Top marks .Phil and Peter also excelled. Of all the years I have watched EE ,Corrie and Emmerdale those scenes rank the highest at the moment. As others have said what a shame this storyline will continue to Feb 2015. A couple of months would have been good imo. Hope the quality can be sustained?

Wow at the Phil and Ian scene so raw and real emotional

The scene with Ian and Phil was incredibly moving and I was actually cringing with Ian's pain. It felt very, very real. I wonder if Ian felt like he could let go with Phil like that because he wasn't trying to be strong like he was with his family? Phil's reaction was very well done too.

More dreadful acting from Ian last night, even my hubby remarked on how awful it was!

It wasn't a pretty scene, but then real grief is ugly. It's unusual for it to be portrayed so powerfully on the screen. I wouldn't want to watch that every day either, but not for the same reasons as you

She should be honest and tell Ian the truth and he wants Jane

[tammyy2j]

Just as I felt sympathy for Ian he uses Bobby to get Jane back and then shouts at the poor child

I was really shocked that David accused Max of murdering Lucy! I know he suspects they had an affair, but it seems a bit of a stretch to start accusing his virtual brother-in-law of murder (unless David knows something we don't)

I'm wondering if the texts setting up secret trysts were to Max though. Emma said those texts were from an unregistered pay-as-you-go phone but I thought Max was using his usual phone to text Lucy and that the texts she received from him were from "Max". Was she seeing someone else??

Nice scene with the newsreader announcing Lucy's murder.

More dreadful acting from Ian last night, even my hubby remarked on how awful it was! I can't take much more of it, so I think I think I'll take a rest from EE for a while.

I think its very hard for anyone to play grief, especially if you havent experienced it IRL. Think people are being way too harsh on them!

[lizann]

david should tell ian about max and mas should denise about ian sleeping with jane the truth needs to come out fast
