EE is SOC-era level horrendous right now.

I just hope this heist/money bull**** storyline ends ASAP with an extremely camp "I TOOK IT BITCHES!" reveal from Sharon.

So SOC was forced out of the show due to Oliver Kent.

No wonder, through multiple EP's, the show seems to continue with the similar problems.

It's him that's the issue with characterisation and pacing I feel.

The heist plot and "Who Took the Money?" and Aiden/Ciara/Mel is just like the Weyland plot. Full of potential but written horribly.

Sort it out EastEnders, it has some great potential plots and wastes them.

Wow, Jack's business booming so much he's offering fully furnished homes to blonde women and giving them the keys straight away.

Then again, it's probably renting isn't it?

Where exactly is the house, has it been in the show before?

Also, the return for Billy's plot was supposed to be Les again but Pam is showing up on his behalf.

I wonder if the actor was so bitter about being axed he's refused to return ever again.

It could be gripping. EE seems to have completely lost the ability to be at all gripping or gritty.

Given John Yorke's previous success, I can only imagine it's true about Oliver Kent being the brunt of the show's issues.

Like Kieran Roberts at Corrie.

Surely this conversation between Phil and Sharon is because they believe Ben ran off with it?

I'm so confused.

I love this new take on a Whodunnit, but it could be written so much better.

Still here for Legend Shazza revealed as the culprit. Yorke did say he wanted all of the show's biggest female characters at the centre of the show where they belong.

I wouldn't say it was quite awful, but it's not as good as it should be.

They've just come off the back of a, not perfect, but strong December so it needs to be better than this.

Ahhh, the one next to Ian?

Well, it's bloody well changed.

Did Mel have any scenes suggesting she was going to stick around in Walford before the scene where Jack was showing her around?

I find it a bit strange she'd want to move next door to Ian just like that.

Rumour has it Friday is the reveal to the audience.

Which means the mystery will continue within the show itself.

True. She's bumped into Kathy twice since she ran off when he tried to give her his number.

That's the biggest issue with the show tbh. They have the cast and even some semblance of interesting stories, but the continuity is completely out and I have no idea why.

Yorke MUST have scrapped tonnes of work that had to be redone at the last minute. There's no other explanation for it.

Omg and didn't she mention making them all a cup of tea when they were in the living room the other night? With her brand new kettle set? Omg, what a shady bitch mocking them and they didn't even know it.
