...it starts tonight, then...?..the actors who play Chantelle and Gray were ‘looking back at’ with Stacey Dooley a few days ago...and it’s so easy to see the impact of playing a storyline such as domestic abuse would have on someone...they appeared quite shaken, watching on the screen even though they’d played it...have we ever had a domestic abuse storyline on EE before when the victim was killed by the abuser..?...I’m not sure that we have...

I think the only other domestic abuse storyline that was fatal was Trevor and Little Mo and the abused killed the abuser in that storyline.

...wasn’t there once an abuse storyline with Denise as well, Amy...?...

It's back tonight. I'm so excited! :dance::cheer2:

Get your food/drinks ready everyone. You don't want to miss tonight EastEnders:cheer2:

She didn't. He survived the iron incident.

He later tried to kill them both in a botched murder/suicide by setting fire to the Slater house but Little Mo was saved and he died. Alongside Sharon's boyfriend who saved Little Mo's life.

There was my dear Ammi. :D

Owen who tried to kill his daughter Libby after Denise escaped his abuse. He was killed by her second husband Lucas, who was a serial killer. :joker:

Its was much better then what we last saw that was fir sure

...:love:...poor Denise..:sad:...at least she finally found happiness with Kevin ...oh....

...I love Linda.../...never frumpy Linda...:lovedup:....

...I didn’t realise that the Chantelle/Gray storyline would hit so straight away...that was so terrifying to watch last night../so upsetting...I mean, really so well done to both actors, must be one of the most difficult storylines to be involved in ...

10mins cut off
so only 20mins per episode.

...I thought it was me when I was going crazy at 8pm, thinking ...why has EE not started yet, what’s happening...:laugh:...it’s been so long since we had it that I have to sit by my TV, excitedly waiting for it...


...is it Marsh’s fault../..the 20 minute thing...?...

:smug:

Bit annoyed they're dragging this Ian thing out. But at least we know he disappears soon. :fc:

..oh we know that, do we..?..meet the person who didn’t know that...hey, how u doin’...


...he’s being written it, then..?...

:laugh:

Apparently the actor is going on a 10 week break soon so I'm sensing a "Who Put Ian in a Coma?" type storyline as he makes enemies of everyone.

Eastenders definitely feels a bit ‘darker’, idk if that’s just me though

I also think the way they’ve approached filming with covid regulations etc. is pretty well done

I think I’ve enjoyed the last couple of episodes because of the smaller cast, EE feels better when it’s stripped back

The second episode felt more like a normal episode. The first one was quite weird.

Im enjoying the show being back. And I love PC Callum already :love:

Ben and Callum's storyline is the weakest aspect of the shows return.

...now that his love has been rejected....do you think he might go for a 10 week Buddhist break in the Himalayas or something...?...

Try saying that on Twitter. I dare you. The Ballum fans will eat you alive. :facepalm:

The weird middle aged women who are seemingly obsessed with them can go rot

Really enjoyed last night show.
The Panesars are great, they're giving me Mitchells vibe.
