I agree. I felt Charlie/Roxy kissing was very poor and lazy writing, given the high standard of everything else going on at the moment

[Kim]

Yet another pregnancy plot and Roxy cheating on her sister with her bloke. It's Santer all over again. Now all we need is ANOTHER pregnancy plot.

Had we not had a ridiculous number of pregnancies already, I'd approve of this one. Potentially a valuable future character with those ties, especially as Peter is leaving.

Cindy's and Linda's add nothing in my opinion - Mick and Linda already have three kids and Beth is not a Beale. They should have made Liam the father. I can't see the point of Kim's either. I just can't see her as a mother. Don't get me started on how morally wrong Ronnie's was.

cindy and beth are on a long vacation upstairs in the beale house

I don't get why we keep getting pregnancy plots in soaps either. Kids in soaps are frankly boring and a nuisance, yet the writers keep them coming (and all soaps are guilty of it).

I hope this kiss between Charlie and Roxy doesn't go any further. I can just about understand a kiss in very stressful circumstances, especially as they both seem to have accepted that Ronnie's gone, but a full blown affair will not be my idea of entertaining viewing.

I got the impression that they did not stop at kissing .... which might mean another child on Albert Square

No-one ever does stop at just kissing on the Square!

Felt the death of the original EE villian was a bit weak. On Dot's behalf I suppose it makes sense as she'll obviously feel like its her fault and thats something she may or may not get over and her son will always cause her grief even after death. On Nick's behalf it was weak.

roxy never learns and that was a terrible exit for nick

I don't think Nick's gone yet.

I don't think Nick's gone yet.

I think he is. We know Dot goes to the police and hands herself in because she says she killed Nick. She doesn't have it in her to kill and is very frail. Her words she spoke to him about how she hopes he chokes on the drugs will rake guilt on her leading her to go to the police I think.
