Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

I was quite surprised when Paul told Ben he loved him, thought Ben would say it first as to me their "relationship" is more about getting frisky even in the funeral parlour than deep and emotional

I was quite surprised too. It's natural for feelings to develop when two people are sleeping together, especially in this case where neither of them had romantic feelings for anyone else. The trouble is most of the relationship's happened off screen.

I wouldn't mind if she was apologetic about Ryan stealing the money!

That fight at the end did make me laugh. It was soooo obvious Mick and Linda would walk in!

I don't think it's realistic that Ryan's still literally "on the run" after five years. I suppose he had to be written as desperate in order to cause maximum trouble for Whitney.

Strange that Martin seems to have forgotten it was only yesterday he was the one swearing to unite Stacey and Arthur. I did like the way he dealt with Ryan though.

I wonder if it'll be another five years until we see Whitney's brother again?

And so say all of us!

Another good episode, if this carries on we can forgive most of 2015.

Nothing else to add really, phil was brilliant drunk, the Kathy scenes with Martin were excellent, Shabnam is almost in line to be a saint and Martin has really grown on me. Couldn't stop laughing at Jay pretending to be Abi.

I was hoping Nancy was going to batter Witless, the pikey trollop. Lee is better off without her. The only good bit of Ryan was when he came out of the shower/bath with that towel. I was almost licking my lips like Babe.

Well it appears having got rid of Dean (the previous not-so-nice bearded bloke) we now have a new not-so-nice bearded bloke.

Poor Lily.
Poor Martin - not coping with housework and laundry, has no one offered to go and help him yet other than his godmum kathy going to hospital with him.

Shabs is lovely even if she did have a bit of a rant at Stacey.

The robbery and fight was just silly. They should be brave and just write people out rather than taint them.

I have to say, Im poorly sighted and for a horifying second I thought Matt Willis was back.

Where is Rebecca, is she away at boarding school?

I think Sonia helps Martin by minding Arthur or Lily, I think that was mentioned

I really like new Martin, I think James is doing very well as Martin

Anyone else think there was a hint of a spark of chemistry between Ryan and Nancy besides me, I do like her with Tamwar but they have gone boring and stale lately

I don't think Ryan is anywhere near as bad as Dean. I took him to be desperate rather than outright villainous during this brief return. I'd be quite happy to see him come back full time. Whitney could do with some family in Walford.

Are you talking about Whitney? If so, I agree. She was once a fantastic character who's been through so much, and it saddens me that she's being written in such a way that many viewers have zero sympathy for her.
