Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner)

[Kim]

FFS what is the matter with DTC and his team? Shabnam pregnant is bad enough but Stacey too is unimaginative and cheap!!!

The only logic I can think of at the moment is that they want to create a child with better blood links than Lily, who could've been an actual Branning if they'd waited a few months, but instead has a nobody as a father. Ryan hardly made a lasting impression and is only related to Whitney. In this case, the baby would be Martin's.

One has to wonder why Lily and Tommy were ever invented with 'twists' on who the father was when they just go and make the mothers pregnant again a few years down the line by more important characters. Who's the next return? Little Mo for Billy after Lola leaves so she can get pregnant and right that paternity wrong (Freddie) too?

I believe in subsequent episodes Sharon becomes pregnant after a one night stand at the Albert with Vincent, Roxy becomes pregnant after affairs with both Charlie and Dean, Ronnie becomes pregnant after getting drunk one night and jumping into bed with Vincent (him again?), Nancy becomes pregnant after sleeping with Tamwar but having a lapse one night with Fat Boy. Then there's Carol - Billy or Buster? And what about Abs? After her break up with Ben she falls immediately into the arms of Jay......

Gosh! It will all be so exciting. Who are the daddies?

I wouldn't be averse to Stacey and Martin being in a real relationship and having a baby. As you say, it would be an important future character with lots of family ties to the square. However, as Perdita said, there's almost certainly going to be a "who's the daddy" element given the ongoing love "square" (which is already unwatchable in my opinion).

I'm really at my wits' end with EE at the moment!

Do you know what Parkerman, it almost wouldn't surprise me if all your predictions come true! I don't know whether to laugh or cry right now...

I actually think Nancy and Tamwar will be the next one. This would ensure that every family has a double relation in it.

Except the Foxes. Oh, Denise and Vincent after that then.

Yes, me too. Endless pregnancies are dull but two Who's the Daddy's? in little more than six months really takes the biscuit.

Doesn't it just?

Of course, Stacey and Kush haven't slept together yet (as far as we know) so the baby's paternity might be straightforward. That'd be too easy though, surely.

I hope Stacey is pregnant by Martin and that she don't sleep with Kush

Stacey already has Lily so she should know all about side effects from her bipolar medicines before now, why is it being made a big deal this time around as it wasn't for Lily's birth

Maybe the writers wanted to address the issue this time since it wasn't mentioned during Stacey's last pregnancy. I'm glad it's being covered since side-effects of medication are a serious worry for anyone who's pregnant.

It should have been covered for her first pregnancy
