EastEnders

[LukeB]

Maybe the train will stop over the bridge and the bus will explode causing a fire on the tube?

That seems like a good idea, least it wouldn't annoy people being to similar to corrie.

Poor Sylvie on fire that would be funny.R.

I'm sorry but I just chuckled at the vision of Shirley converting into a ball of fire as the train zooms across the square at high speed. :worry:

[Denver]

The train will not be involved in any stunt

[Ashley.]

The train will not be involved in any stunt

Didn't you also say last week that the Bus Crash would be a terrorist attack? :suspect:

Fix your sources http://i.imgur.com/8xdaNyd.gif

[Will.]

I didnt say i posted a link darling

What was the link

[Glenn.]

Not the dead going to other funeral parlours because bills stuck in rush hour traffic

What was the link

From the Mirror

[Rob!]

Daran Little, the writer for most of this week has said on twitter that tonight is the most dramatic episode he has ever written.
It's also worth pointing out that tonight clashes with Emmerdale so that may have something to do with it.

[Denver]

They should have had a hour episode tonight and not 2 episodes on Friday

[Ashley.]

Ah so there's probably another stunt then (I'm sure we all guessed that but still)

[Denver]

So perched

[Will.]

Sounds good.

[Denver]

I hope they kill a few bores off

[Ashley.]

I hope they kill a few bores off

Get a bore out?

[Rob!]

But yeah Sharon Marshall also said on This Morning that a train crash isn't happening. I think we do literally just have a week of community spirit

[Shaun]

oh why does she get to survive

BORING COW

[Will.]

this is different

[Denver]

Love how the start was filmed

[Rob!]

I love Hollyoaks

[Will.]

Camera quality has improved.

[Kazanne]

Great start,love the slow mo

[Wizard.]

Bonnie needs an oscar :clap1:

[Denver]

The bus will explode

[Cal.]

This feels like Hollyoaks

[Shaun]

Louise love, pipe down

[Cal.]

Not Mick this stunt's Den

[Shaun]

oh god there's going to be a train thing then :worry:

[lewis111]

Ugh why is Johnny ok

[Will.]

[Kazanne]

Shirley does make me laugh,brilliant,lol

[Cal.]

Poor Lou

[Wizard.]

Not our Shirl :(

[Denver]

No Honey yet

[Rob!]

So we've learnt that Louise isn't very good in a crisis

[Will.]

oh bye

[Shaun]

what's the woman with dementia called? She strikes me as the easiest character to write out of those three Carters.

[Will.]

welp at donna

[Shaun]

not Donna </3

[Wizard.]

She lost a leg I mean wheel

[Denver]

Not them killing the only one who cant walk

[Will.]

I swear if Honey is dead im done with the show

[Cal.]

Donna omg

[Shaun]

yay Donna <3

[Wizard.]

Donna can stand up? Disability benefit fraud!

[reece(:]

Donna is wormfood?

[Will.]

yaaaas at martin

[Denver]

Not Martin

[Brother Leon]

This is quality.

[Kazanne]

oh no is that Martin?

[LukeB]

Was that Martin?

[Will.]

how is martin still alive

[Wizard.]

Not the bully recording it for YouTube

[Shaun]

train to crash onto the dickhead filming it? :fc:

[Wizard.]

Honey!

[Kazanne]

Poor Stacey

[Rob!]

Is that Martin? :omgno:

[Denver]

Ben finally loves his sister

[Cal.]

I hope Shakil snuffs it

[Wizard.]

Someone kill the dickhead

[Denver]

Shakill to die a hero?

[Cal.]

Can someone get our Stace please!

[Kazanne]

Hope that bully boy gets it

[Owen19]

At least Honey is safe

[Denver]

Not Tina 1st thought terror attack

[Wizard.]

Not a terror attack

[Cal.]

Not suicide now being renamed a Peggy Mitchell

Impact.

[Brother Leon]

Shakil stepping up :clap1:

[Rob!]

I don't even like Keegan as a villain he needs to die

[Will.]

screaming at babe becoming a paramedic

[Owen19]

Babe the new Janice Battersby?

[Shaun]

:joker: Babe

[Natalie.]

Loving this

[Cal.]

Honey is gorgeous

[Rob!]

Johnny :facepalm:

[Kazanne]

Are they supposed to move him

[Shaun]

welp the blood around Denise :worry:

[Wizard.]

And now she really is dead

[Rob!]

Babe :laugh2:

[LukeB]

This is a fantastic episode so far

[Rob!]

Emerald doesn't seem that concerned

[Owen19]

Where's Whit?

[Denver]

Shame it isnt Babe under the bus

[Will.]

Where's Whit?

I think mick said she's in the vic

[Will.]

no one cares about this woman finding her son

[Cal.]

Gif Honey swigging the brandy

[Kazanne]

Wheres the bloody ambulance etc

[Rob!]

Sorry but :clap1: at them discussing as to whether it could be a terriost attack. It would be the first thing that came to your mind

[Shaun]

Martin seems such a random/big character to kill off though :think:

[Wizard.]

Not our Stace heartbroken again

[Cal.]

:omgno: at the thought of SOC killing off a Fowler

[Rob!]

They better not kill off Martin I swear to god

[Kazanne]

Kim about to kill a lemon,

[Denver]

Not him beating an old woman

[Cal.]

They better not kill off Martin I swear to god

Idk it could take Stace in a new direction

[Shaun]

Very subtle characterisation about the bully. Happens to be a thief who finds bus crashes funny too. A tad unlikely.

[Cal.]

Shirl <3

[Will.]

This episode is amazing

[Rob!]

Crying at Sylv

[Natalie.]

Shirley :love:

[Kazanne]

Love these 3 on the train,lol

[Cal.]

Don better not die.

[Rob!]

Isn't lifting it the worst thing you can do if you're trapped under something heavy?

[Shaun]

pretty sure Honey's doing most of the lifting there

[Kazanne]

Wonder if its someone we don't expect that will die

[Will.]

This actually makes no sense, Martin was one of the closest person to the bus. Surely he would have died.

[Shaun]

not the boy :worry:

[Will.]

not whitney

[Wizard.]

SOC loves the Fowlers so much he created a bus crash that destroyed the whole square just to have the whole square lift a double decker off of Martin

[Shaun]

noooooo </3

[LukeB]

Whitney :omgno:

[Denver]

Whitney is dead

[Owen19]

They can't kill Whit:(

[Natalie.]

Omg not Whit :(

[Wizard.]

Bianca not to come to Whits funeral because she has to work a shift at the caff?

[Cal.]

Whit :( :(

[Denver]

I dont see Whit surviving especially after moving the bus

[Rob!]

NO!!!!

[Shaun]

then again if the bitch has a Lukas Graham ringtone she kinda brought it on herself

[Denver]

I honestly think that was the single best episode in at least 2 years

[Rob!]

I wondered why they made her ringtone so loud yesterday

[Ross.]

That was ****ing incredible

Lacey is amazing :love:

[Firewire]

BYE if they kill off Whit

[Natalie.]

then again if the bitch has a Lukas Graham ringtone she kinda brought it on herself

:joker::joker:

[Rob!]

That was an amazing episode tbf

[Firewire]

That was ****ing incredible

Lacey is amazing :love:

Ugh she's such a scene stealer

[Wizard.]

She can't be dead cause Shona filmed a video on the square asking for people to vote for Tilly at the NTA's

[Owen19]

Maybe Lee has her phone? They can't kill her!

[lewis111]

Istg if they kill off another loveable and great female character for no purpose I'll be raging

[Ashley.]

I reckon it's Lee with Whitney's phone

[Ross.]

Ugh she's such a scene stealer

Queen of crying on cue :love:

[lewis111]

Maybe Lee has her phone? They can't kill her!

This is actually very likely
Please

[Will.]

That was incredible.

[Firewire]

I reckon it's Lee with Whitney's phone

Yeah I think it could be

Hopefully tbh

[Wizard.]

I reckon it's Lee with Whitney's phone

It would make sense with the Tina/Shirley train scenes because there's obvs not going to be an accident with the train

[lewis111]

Was the whole thing about the tube just a red herring then
Cause the story would've been the sane with or without them on the train

[Denver]

Maybe Lee has her phone? They can't kill her!

I reckon it's Lee with Whitney's phone

That would be a great twist

[Shaun]

oh that'd be wonderful if it's Lee.

[Ashley.]

I thought on the aerial pictures it looked like something had crashed into the Launderette but I guess not

[Cal.]

Kind of sums up SOC to have the whole episode be about the community lifting a bus off of a Fowler whilst a Santer character lays dead out of sight

[Daniel-X]

Sorry but I'm ****ing seething, it's a joke if Whitney is dead. She probably is mind, she's form the era SOC hates and he'll be able to give Lee a massive exit with it.

[Daniel-X]

Kind of sums up SOC to have the whole episode be about the community lifting a bus off of a Fowler whilst a Santer character lays dead out of sight

He's actually worse than Kirkwood and Newman.

[Ross.]

I thought it was a good touch showing the effects it had on the extras like the woman who lost her son instead of just showing all the main characters

[reece(:]

SOC a misogynist?

[Firewire]

FFS I'm fuming at them making Shaki a hero

[Owen19]

Can't be dealing with losing Ronnie, Roxy and Whit in the same month:sad:

[Ross.]

Kind of sums up SOC to have the whole episode be about the community lifting a bus off of a Fowler whilst a Santer character lays dead out of sight

:joker:

[Denver]

OMG Whitney is trending

[Ashley.]

On the other hand Lee can't be dead, because Linda's not back for another four months?

[Ashley.]

"The bus will get stuck under the bridge, but the Fowlers will bring everyone together to push it through like the strong community they are."

http://i.imgur.com/OIKq18w.gif

Close enough x

[Denver]

On the other hand Lee can't be dead, because Linda's not back for another four months?

She may have popped back for 1 or 2 episodes?

[Firewire]

I hope Whitney's death isn't used to further Lee's story

[Ross.]

Whoever it is probably won't be dead

A Ronnie coma style story is coming

[Daniel-X]

I actually liked the majority of the episode too (oh apart from the cinema style filming at the start and end and the filing through the phone lens, idk I just think when they try to do different lenses for EE it doesn't work. She should be gritty!)

[Ashley.]

She may have popped back for 1 or 2 episodes?

And then left again whilst her family is grieving for her son? :suspect:

[Firewire]

Whoever it is probably won't be dead

A Ronnie coma style story is coming

Roxy's ghost possessed the bus driver to attempt to kill of Jack?

[Denver]

Whitney won't die they have done that cliffhanger to make us believe that then turn it around with a twist

[Daniel-X]

Whoever it is probably won't be dead

A Ronnie coma style story is coming

Martin in a coma and Sylvie switches it off to plug her phone in? :fc:

[Denver]

And then left again whilst her family is grieving for her son? :suspect:

To look after her mother

[Ashley.]

To look after her mother

:rolleyes:

[Ross.]

Martin in a coma and Sylvie switches it off to plug her phone in? :fc:

Go away you vicious cow I love Martin and Stacey

[Shaun]

OMG Whitney is trending

Stacy's impact?

[lewis111]

There's obviously something to do with that little boy who was lost
They probably wouldn't have brought him up like 4 times for nothing

[Daniel-X]

Go away you vicious cow I love Martin and Stacey

So anyway he's the character who turned her into Miss Fishwife!

[Ashley.]

It was an alright episode but I think the only time I felt any emotion towards the characters was when Kim found Denise

[Denver]

Ideally Emerald murdered the bully and shoved the body under the bus and it is his phone

[lewis111]

It'd be quite low of them to make the audience be like
OMG thank god Whitneys ok it's just a 5 year old boy that died

[Denver]

:rolleyes:

She can not just leave her mother to rot and die

[Ashley.]

She can not just leave her mother to rot and die

I mean you die before you rot but alright

[Daniel-X]

That push Keegan gave Emerald was pathetic. Kind of a scream though. Ashley would you be so kind to gif? :love:

[Ross.]

I got chills when the ringtone played at the end :worry:

[Cal.]

Extra Woman: HAS ANYONE SEEN MY LITTLE BOY LEWIS?!??!?!!

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5a/Michelle_Fowler_(2016).jpg/200px-Michelle_Fowler_(2016).jpg

Why would Lee have her phone? Seems like a cheap twist. Im here for it saying that..

[Ashley.]

Me when Ian ordered Kathy to have them stop the trains

http://i.imgur.com/9XDAmgT.gif

[Firewire]

The focus on Carmel at the start made me think it was Kush

But I suppose it's because it's "her" market

[Ross.]

I SCREAMED when Michelle ordered everyone out the back door of the café

"Come on everyone lets go"

[Firewire]

SO GLAD DENISE IS ALIVE

And Honey

[Daniel-X]

Imagine if the wheelchair thing with Donna was a red herring and it was actually Miss Jane and her wheelchair that was crushed to pieces. Iconic.

[Firewire]

Where was Shaz? :worry:

[Ashley.]

Where was Shaz? :worry:

I'm guessing she had ha headphones in

[Cal.]

I SCREAMED when Michelle ordered everyone out the back door of the café

She learned the bus was full of kiddies?

[Denver]

[Ross.]

I also was bopping when Touch was on the radio

Our Stace has good taste

[Ross.]

She learned the bus was full of kiddies?

:joker:

[Ashley.]

To be honest I'm surprised they were smart enough to think about the possibility of a train but they weren't smart enough to believe that a bus had just crashed through a market full of people and it's probably not only Martin stuck under it.

[Cal.]

Lou has completely changed as a character from when she first come into it and I preferred the old one.

[Glenn.]

My tweet has made me twitter famous tbh

[Denver]

We can also hope Jack is somehow under the bus

[Denver]

Receipts?

[Cal.]

Oh aren't Lacey and Tilly their only NTA nominees? That's probably why they had Lou freak out on the bus and they trapped our Martin underneath it.

[Ross.]

We can also hope Jack is somehow under the bus

Yes I love how he magically got under the bus after coming out of his house after it had all happened

[Ashley.]

We can also hope Jack is somehow under the bus

I mean he was alive and walking at the beginning of the episode so unless he slipped under there when nobody was looking, I highly doubt it.

[Firewire]

Bent down to pick up Donna's wheel and Max dropped the bus on him?

Roxy's final revenge?

[Denver]

Sam and Rita would have felt at home filming Martins scenes

[Ross.]

Honey single handedly lifting that side of the bus :love:

[Denver]

I wouldnt rule out one of the safe characters dying from an injury they didnt know they had

[Daniel-X]

I wouldnt rule out one of the safe characters dying from an injury they didnt know they had

I was thinking this, I can imagine someone like Donna suddenly collapsing from an injury to her skull or something.

[Firewire]

Keegan is going to die!

[Firewire]

Honey single handedly lifting that side of the bus :love:

Honcules :love:

[Rob!]

Who puts the glad in gladiator

Honculeeeeesssss

[Ashley.]

The Incredible Honey. :love:

[Will.]

I genuinely am curious to how Martin survived, I thought once you had been hit by a bus you're dead?

[Firewire]

Who puts the glad in gladiator

Honculeeeeesssss

Jem Palmer who?

[Denver]

I was thinking this, I can imagine someone like Donna suddenly collapsing from an injury to her skull or something.

Great call especially after refusing the offer of being taken to the hospital

[Firewire]

Interview with one of the directors if anyone is interested

http://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/eastenders/news/a819748/eastenders-digital-spy-speaks-to-the-co-director-of-tonights-bus-crash-episode/

Worth noting it's the same guy who did the New Year's Day episodes, he has a thing for freezing time it seems.

[Firewire]

And he said the cast (aka Honey) actually did lift the bus :clap2:

[Will.]

We need him to direct more episodes, both iconic episodes.

[Denver]

I bet the bully gets away scot free

[Denver]

Also the bus was smoking to start with so how did that stop by itself?

[Firewire]

Also the bus was smoking to start with so how did that stop by itself?

I think it was dust

[Ashley.]

The vision was very much about us watching people who at the start of the week are in conflict with each other. But then this terrible thing happens and they find all the things that unite them rather than divides them. It's about being in touch with what makes you human at the end of the day. The fact you instinctively run towards someone in need, rather than run away. That happens again and again in the episode. People are just reacting instinctively to help people they know and that they don't know. I guess that's the over-arching theme of the week, the humanity.

:love:

[Firewire]

That's what I love about EastEnders

[Denver]

That is true EE

[Will.]

I didn't realise Mick said he saw Whitney go to train station.

[Glenn.]

Receipts?

I don't know how :worry:

[Glenn.]

Bye I don't run at anyone in need.

[Braden]

Catching up with this now.

I swear I saw one of the extras laughing at the beginning.

[Braden]

Martin looks like the dumpster monster from Mulholland Drive.

[Will.]

Also the bus was smoking to start with so how did that stop by itself?

OMG lool it was snow, I just watched it back.

[Braden]

Not my Mum asking where the little boy who lost his Mum is.

Who cares about extras when Our Whit could be under the bus?

[LucyPinder'sLover]

I Really Hope Whitney Aint Dead I Love Her in Eastenders Dont Die Whit :bawling:

[Firewire]

We are all praying for Whitney, LucyPinder'sLover.

[Ashley.]

If Lee dies then I'm perched for the excuses as to why Linda can't return to the square.

"Traffic's chock-a-block, won't make the funeral, sorry!"

Mess.

They overdid the "everyone pulling together".

Lauren and Steven come out of Beale's to see what the commotion is and immediately run to Denise's side. PISS OFF.

[Marsh.]

The final scene would've had more impact had we had any earlier clue of what Whitney's ringtone was, or had someone purposely ring her and then heard the phone.

Danny Dyer's dire "Whitney???" just didn't do the trick.
