Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

[Dazzle]

I'm feeling sorry for Ian being so happily oblivious that Kathy's planning to run out on him again. I think you're right MM that Ian's been written like this because he's going to break down completely at some point. He was at rock bottom a couple of days ago and it's not going to take much to send him back there. He seems heavily invested in Kathy making him happy again, whereas we know she's only going to add to his problems. I understand Kathy's worried sick about Phil's safety and is being manipulated by Gavin, but she doesn't seem too worried about her sons' welfare if she disappears again.

I like Roxy's new hair cut despite how it came about. I hope she's starting to catch on to Dean's true personality now, although allowing him to change her wardrobe isn't a good sign...

And shabnam is being a bit creepy.

I don't know if you read the interview I recently posted on the Shabnam Masood thread. In it, Rakhee Thakrar mentions that parents of stillborn children often start worrying excessively about their other children's safety after losing their babies. She's desperate to keep Jade safe, plus she's probably longing to bond with her now her maternal feelings have been awoken.
