EastEnders discussion

[Kerry]

Oh good :D Hope she stays around.

And does anyone know if Minty's gone now for good?

I wondered that too.

[Rob]

I wondered that too.

let's hope not.

[Kerry]

let's hope not.

Hope not but it looked like it. Not that he did much bar mess Hev around these days

[Callum]

Minty has indeed gone for good, didn't get much of an exit did he?

[Kerry]

Minty has indeed gone for good, didn't get much of an exit did he?

Another walk away :(

[Callum]

Another walk away :(

Yeah, I don't think he deserved to get Julia's Theme though. He's been in there years but has been hardly ever involved in any major storylines. Waste of a character.

[Kerry]

Yeah, I don't think he deserved to get Julia's Theme though. He's been in there years but has been hardly ever involved in any major storylines. Waste of a character.

Think he ended up as a glorified extra really. He never really had a place other than Phils monkey

[Barbie]

Well well well, another poor exit, only difference is that he wasn't a major character.

[Jackie]

Its great to see Kat and Alfie back.

[Callum]

Leon sleeps with Glenda on Friday. The following week both him and Zsa Zsa leave seperately

[bbfan1991]

Yeah, I don't think he deserved to get Julia's Theme though. He's been in there years but has been hardly ever involved in any major storylines. Waste of a character.

Personally even though Minty didn't do much i'm glad that Cliff Parisi got Julia's Theme because of the service he gave to them.

WTF that spoiler is so random Callum, I was like LOL when I was reading it in Inside Soap:joker:.

Good news about Billy's friend joining, i've been wanting them to give him a big storyline for a while now and Perry Fenwick is a good actor when given the right material:).

[Jords]

Leon sleeps with Glenda on Friday. The following week both him and Zsa Zsa leave seperately

With Glenda!? Woah.

[Kerry]

Todays episode was funny :D

[Smithy]

Leon sleeps with Glenda on Friday. The following week both him and Zsa Zsa leave seperately

ewwwwww ;o

[Locke.]

Good old Alfie helping the fat woman out

[Kerry]

Yuk

[Mac Hiavellian]

Minty has indeed gone for good, didn't get much of an exit did he?

This is another reason Kirkwood's p!ssing me off. All these characters just leaving within a day or two notice. Ben was a good reason because we were expecting his trial, but Adam the day Libby found out he tried to seduce Libby? Chelsea and Libby leaving their Mum so soon after all they'd been through? Peggy the day after the pub 'burnt to the ground'/needed a repaint? Minty because he left Heather earlier that day?

And I really cannot stand Alfie/Shane Ritchie. I still hold it against him that Nana Moon was killed off lol

[RichardWells]

I'd sleep with Glenda as well........Talk about a hot MILF lol.

Yeah, me too. It's like we had to pay the price of having to put up with Alfie again to get Kat back.

[Lee.]

WTF has Kat had done to her lips?.. Used to always think she was quite attractive (in a rouygh chavy sort of way) but she;s had collagen or some **** put in her top lip by the looks of it and it just looks like she's had a right skelp from somebody!

[bbfan1991]

Todays episode was funny :D

I agree especially Kat:D, the one liners that were coming out were funny and all the business over the toy:joker:.

I'm starting to like Alfie again:shocked:.

[Callum]

I loved the scene with Kat, Stacey, Jean and Mo all laughing about the teddy. That was really nice. Nice scenes with Alfie and Heather and Shirley too. He worked well with them.

[bbfan1991]

Me too:D, DS lot slagged it off though they're negative most of the time:rolleyes:. I preferred the Alfie and Shirley scene, funny one was Kat and Roxy PMSL in the bookies.

Enjoyed seeing Stacey having fun before the Janine and Ryan storyline begins:).

[Callum]

Great episode tonight. Felt like when EE was at it's best for me in the 2004 - 2006 era. Really enjoyed the Kat and Alfie programme on BBC3 straight after too, seeing Nana Moon's death again made me cry. :(

[bbfan1991]

Loved the Kat/Bianca catfight (no pun intended):joker:, enjoyed the scenes with Charlie too. It's great having Jessie Wallace back and I laughed when Kat hit Alfie, he's more bareable this time:D.

I'm gonna miss Stacey, Jean and Charlie when they all leave:(.

[Jords]

Great episode tonight. Felt like when EE was at it's best for me in the 2004 - 2006 era. Really enjoyed the Kat and Alfie programme on BBC3 straight after too, seeing Nana Moon's death again made me cry. :(

Watched that! Nana Moon dying was sooooo sad :/ But was great to see a recap of the Kat & Alfie storyline, and Kat and Zoe's too.

I thought it was hilarious how Alfie was excited he bought the vic and Kat looks at it in the state its in like YOU DID WUTTT. :laugh:

[Callum]

I know, that was funny but I hope Kat doesn't keep up this hard faced cow act all the time, it doesn't suit her. I like to see the nice side of Kat too. :) Another thing I liked about tonight's episode was Alfie's chat with Dot, that was nice. Oh and his chat with Jane was nice too, I like how they haven't forgot how Alfie was friends with all these people.

[bbfan1991]

Nana Moon's death had me in floods of tears:bawling::(.

[Callum]

Don't think many EE fans had a dry eye whilst watching that, she was such a legend of a character. I loved the episode when her and Alfie went abroad to see her late husband's grave.

[bbfan1991]

Yeah and plus the Ethel Skinner episode was sad:(.

[flemin]

Didn't nana Moon have that special episode where they went back in time??

[bbfan1991]

I really do hope Kirkwood brings in a few characters in the 20+ group which are lacking and develops them.. Stacey will be a big loss however in a few years when the character is grown up and Lacey Turner hopefully returns will be awesome;).

[Callum]

Didn't nana Moon have that special episode where they went back in time??

Yeah that's the episode I was on about in my previous episode, I loved that episode.

I hope no more characters are brought back. I think they should maybe introduce a new family in a few years time, we need some quirky characters with substance. The Darren's and Jodie's are all very nice but are hardly in the same league as say the Dot's, Pat's and Bianca's of Walford. We need some characters with depth and who will have a long future on the show. I hope Kirkwood works now on making the show feel more like a community again, it's been ages since it's felt like one big community in Walford. There needs to be more character interaction between people who normally wouldn't speak with each other. It's essential to make the show better.

[Jords]

EastEnders star Shane Richie has teased viewers about his upcoming plot, labelling it the 'biggest storyline in soap history'.

The actor has reprised the role of loveable Alfie Moon after five years, and Jessie Wallace has gone back to playing Kat Moon.

Shane told This Morning: "We had a meeting last year and we got told about the storyline, which was going to be an on-going story for the best part of a year, maybe two years... and we kind of went 'Wow!'

"And I can honestly say, it's going to be the biggest soap story I think in probably the history of soaps."

He added: "I'm putting my neck on the line, and it's a big thing to say but we've recently had another meeting with the exec producer and me and Jessie are almost foaming at the mouth knowing what's going to happen!

"It really is going to be massive."

Kat and Alfie take over the Queen Vic, which is currently a burnt-out shell thanks to the recent fire.

Shane said of the boozer's future: "Kat and Alfie have really put their mark on it. It looks very much like their place."

Wonder what it will be??? Sounds promising!

[Callum]

Probably will be a baby swap storyline with Ronnie Mitchell

[bbfan1991]

Probably will be a baby swap storyline with Ronnie Mitchell

I really want Ronnie to have some good luck for once, theres only so much depressing storylines and bad luck that the viewers can take watching her:rolleyes:.

Hasn't Vanessa got any other clothes than that white thing also, it's very off putting:p:D.

[Stephanie]

i bet ronnie either miscarries again, dies, the baby dies or it gets: shot, stabbed, poisoned, dies of hunger or gets taken away..in a body bag.. or by social services.

[Saph]

ew thats not Lauren :S

[Jamie.....]

ew thats not Lauren :S

They recast her, and I think they're recasting Lucy & Ben too

[Callum]

Great episode tonight. Had a different feel to it. Loving the new Lauren and was great to see Tanya back. Also nice to see the E20 people and Grace too, haven't seen them in a bit.

[bbfan1991]

It'll take me a while to get used to the new Lauren, new actress did OK but why did they have to get rid of Madeline Duggan?:(.

Stacey and Max awesome as usual:D.

[Stephanie]

i like the new lauren, she looks the right age now imo.

[Maia]

I love the new Lauren. I didn't think I'd like her that much but she's amazing, I'm very happy with her. At least Brian Kyrkwood's got something right :D

[Jords]

The new Lauren. :shocked:
I think shes too different than before, didnt seem like her at all!

[Callum]

For me, the new Lauren is much better than the old one. She seems more grown up and I love her attitude. I hope they don't make her like a proper tearaway though, taking drugs, binge drinking etc.

[Mrluvaluva]

:shocked:

:yuk:

[Stephanie]

bleh.

[Callum]

Poor Jean will get her heart broken again. There's a new character arriving on Friday and she will apparently be Billy's new love interest.

[Callum]

Good episode tonight but Janine ruined it for me. Anyone else find Charlie Brooks a really poor actress these days? All the hand movements and over exaggerating she does annoys me so much and she speaks weirdly too. I miss the old Janine. :( Loved Kat though mouthing off to Janine, she stole all the scenes she was in tonight. That American guy on webcam to Lauren was so unconvincing, he didn't even sound American. Still liking the new Lauren though.

[Visage]

The new Lauren. :shocked:
I think shes too different than before, didnt seem like her at all!

I was expecting a new actress from the papers, what I didn't anticipate was a new character on top....

[Callum]

Yeah she does seem really different and has forgiven Max already. :rolleyes:

[bbfan1991]

I did like Tanya when she first appeared but they ruined her with the Buried Alive storyline and it's not the same, don't like her much now:(.

Charlie Brooks is great when they give her good material to work with:).

[BB_Eye]

Two characters I never wanted back. Alfie and Tanya. Come back Peggy and Libby, all is forgiven.

[bbfan1991]

LOL Slaters moving stuff before letting the Social Worker in:joker:


Yay Janine got battered by Stacey:D:D.

[bbfan1991]

In da bush:joker:.

[Stacey.]

I actually hate Stacey.

Janine is just :love:

[bbfan1991]

Kat and Shirley scene was class, meeting of the mini skirts:):p.

[bbfan1991]

Janine's face when Stacey dragged her out of the bushes by her legs:laugh:, liked when Stacey also gave her a slap and said ''This is for Danielle'':)

[Stacey.]

I did sorta actually like the slap for killing Danielle, although it was Janine's fault it sorta wasn't too.

[Callum]

Loved Stacey's fight with Janine but I love how everyone just let it happen.

[Kerry]

Ugh if that bitch grasses on Stacey I'll slap her myself

[bbfan1991]

Lacey Turner only got one month of filming left:(. Stacey will get the Christmas/New Year storyline and i'm glad that there will be a happy ending for her..

[Jords]

Yay! I bet its a tear-jerker.

[Jords]

That was great. :joker:

[bbfan1991]

Yay! I bet its a tear-jerker.

I think so too:(. I think Ronnie may help Stacey escape once she finds out her killing Archie because Danielle wouldn't want her friend to go to prison:bawling:.

[Kerry]

I'm hoping I grow to love Kat again. She's bugging me a bit at the moment. She was always a lippy cow but never this bad. Alfie too needs to re-grow on me. Though I love his fondness for Heather :)

[bbfan1991]

Kat had a one night stand with Michael Moon, Alfie's cousin while Alfie is in prison and he is the father of her baby:shocked:.. Michael arrives next week I think it is.

Billy gets a kiss from Jean after he sticks up for her from some guys giving her a bad time but then after Stacey hears him in the Cafe saying to Jay the kiss was a mistake and then a cutting remark about Jean which upsets her so he gets a telling off:D.

[Jords]

I'm hoping I grow to love Kat again. She's bugging me a bit at the moment. She was always a lippy cow but never this bad. Alfie too needs to re-grow on me. Though I love his fondness for Heather :)

Agreed, they are a bit annoying atm. And agree Reg.

[Kerry]

I swear Alfie has the same clothes he left in :D

[bbfan1991]

I swear Alfie has the same clothes he left in :D

That black coat is annoying like the white thing Vanessa keeps wearing:laugh2:.

[Kerry]

That black coat is annoying like the white thing Vanessa keeps wearing:laugh2:.

Maybe wardrobe is short of funds at the moment. Must have cost a bomb to blow up the Vic :laugh:

[bbfan1991]

I like Greg the new character:).

[Kerry]

Vanessa still wore that bloody outfit even on her birthday dinner out :laugh:

[Stacey.]

I hope Vanessa goes back to Max. I liked them as a couple.

[Kerry]

I hope Vanessa goes back to Max. I liked them as a couple.

Have you seen todays?

[bbfan1991]

Kat and Bianca scene was epic:hugesmile:, I hope Mrs Moon (Slater to me:p) makes friends with Christian next...

I agree Stacey, Max and Vanessa are well suited, i'm not a fan of Tanya anymore:nono:.

[Kerry]

Oh I quite liked Tan tonight

Amazing how the new Lauren sounds so much like the old one. Their voices are identical :shocked:

[bbfan1991]

I'm really liking Abi:D.

[Kerry]

I'm really liking Abi:D.

She grew up overnight :shocked:

[bbfan1991]

Tanya could have said to Greg introducing him to Max, this is the husband who had an affair with his son's wife and everyone found out at Christmas oh and Lauren tried to run him down:joker:.

[Kerry]

Tanya could have said to Greg introducing him to Max, this is the husband who had an affair with his son's wife and everyone found out at Christmas oh and Lauren tried to run him down:joker:.

Not to mention though that she met him by having an affair with him as his kids' babysitter :joker:

[Stacey.]

Have you seen todays?

Yeah, was sorta watching it. I didn't like miss anything did I?!

[Kerry]

Yeah, was sorta watching it. I didn't like miss anything did I?!

Vanessa got back with Max at the end :)

[Stacey.]

Vanessa got back with Max at the end :)

Omg oh right! I must have missed that part! :D

[Kerry]

Omg oh right! I must have missed that part! :D

It was quite sweet really. She'd walked in her heels to the square and her feet hurt and she took them off. Max was just going to find her (after a mope) to give her her birthday gift and she was nearly at his door. She told him all she had was the clothes she stood in and he picked her up and carried her in :)

It'll be on BBC iPlayer :) Or the omnibus on Sunday

[Stacey.]

It'll be on BBC iPlayer :) Or the omnibus on Sunday

Just watched it on BBCiPlayer. It was nice :D

[Kerry]

Just watched it on BBCiPlayer. It was nice :D

Yup. Wonder what now for them!

[Callum]

So good having Tanya back, she's one of the few bearable characters for me lately. Michael seems like a good character but I hate how his entrance just makes way for another who's the dad storyline.

[Kerry]

Who's the Daddy? is getting pretty tiresome

[bbfan1991]

Something intriguing about Michael:D.

As for the baby thing Definetly is Michael's.. one night stand with Kat while Alfie was in Spanish prison, it will be revealed next week so twists and turns.

[Callum]

Who's the Daddy? is getting pretty tiresome

Certainly is, there's been so many pregnancy's in Walford in the last year. We still have Kat's and Ronnie's to come. I hope after them two, they leave off a pregnancy storyline for a good while, it's just boring and stale now.

Walford certainly needs a big nursery thats for sure

[bbfan1991]

Walford certainly needs a big nursery thats for sure

Corrie's worse, nearly half of the female cast were pregnant last year:shocked:. Pregnancy storylines are annoying now and need a rest for a little bit.

Tragedy is about to hit Albert Square in EastEnders when Billie is found dead on the morning after his birthday party.

As exclusively revealed by DS last month, Billie's lifeless body is discovered by Bianca, causing shock and heartbreak all round.

Billie's ex-girlfriend Whitney is among those who struggle to cope in the aftermath of his passing. As his family grieve, she pays a visit to the graffiti wall - a special place for the couple as Billie once painted 'Whitney' there.

Standing by the wall, where a shrine for Billie is beginning to form, Whitney mourns his loss. Will she and the rest of Billie's loved ones ever recover from the tragedy?

[Stacey.]

Omg Billie dies D:

That's good though, he's an annoying ****.

[Jords]

Poor Whitney! She doesnt have much luck either.

[flamingGalah!]

Good. Cannot stand Billie, or the actor that plays him :dance:

[bbfan1991]

Poor Whitney! She doesnt have much luck either.

I know but I heard Todd comes back apparently and they were much suited:).

Good. Cannot stand Billie, or the actor that plays him :dance:

I didn't like Billie as for Devon Anderson I don't know what he's like in RL.. he got sacked by Bryan Kirkwood at Hollyoaks for turning up to late repeatedly and then Devon said in an interview after Kirkwood took over that his days on the Square are numbered, basically hinting that BK simply dislikes him;).

[flamingGalah!]

Devon is apparently a cocky little tw@t, hopefully he wont be gracing our screens again :D :xyxwave:

[Kerry]

Devon is apparently a cocky little tw@t, hopefully he wont be gracing our screens again :D :xyxwave:

I can't see anyone else taking him on (thankfully)

[Callum]

Devon is one of the worst actors in soap

[Mac Hiavellian]

So Leon and Zsa Zsa also got a quick exit storyline. Well that's just sh!t. I'm worrying that Charlie will get a lame exit too.

And this rubbish with kat's baby is annoying me. I think everyone guessed Michael could be the father and I think a lot of people are predicting it will be Alfie's baby after all because of ehr beign 6 months pregnant and having last seen Alfie 6 months ago. What is the blooming point?

Can't wait for Billie to leave and hoping it gives Carol more to work with as she's bene underused.

[Kerry]

Seems like Leon and Zsa Zsa were literally kicked out the door. Blink and you missed their exit

[Mac Hiavellian]

Seems like Leon and Zsa Zsa were literally kicked out the door. Blink and you missed their exit

Lol the sooner Leon went the better but I suppose he still deserved better that what he got. Zsa left just moments earlier and then he decided to leave as well with that forceful speech like it was a "And the moral of this story is" kind of style. Awful

[Smithy]

Is Phil off the crack now?

[Mac Hiavellian]

Is Phil off the crack now?

Yeah. Quickest recovery ever. Actually Chelsea's coke addiction 2 years ago was quicker

[bbfan1991]

I'm really looking forward to the Billy Mitchell storyline, about time the focus was on him for a change and because I do like Perry Fenwick's acting:).

[Smithy]

Yeah. Quickest recovery ever. Actually Chelsea's coke addiction 2 years ago was quicker

Yea, thats what I was thinking :s

[Kerry]

Awww Poor Jean. I think the Slaters are the unluckiest family ever

[Kerry]

Mind you, anyone else think EE are trying to bring the humour back to the show? I've noticed a few episodes now within the past week that have made me smile

[bbfan1991]

Billy at the end of todays episode:shocked:, liking this storyline but poor Jay, he does work better with Phil though...

I am liking Michael, EE need to give more dimension to his character than just this Kat and Alfie thing, the show needs more strong males as they lack in this area:(.

Harry Gold is a really interesting character also, I find him chilling when he appears and the actor is good also:).

[Tom4784]

Seems like Leon and Zsa Zsa were literally kicked out the door. Blink and you missed their exit

They didn't want to let Zsa Zsa's actress go I think, it was her choice so they had to do something hasty.

I think anyway.

[bbfan1991]

They didn't want to let Zsa Zsa's actress go I think, it was her choice so they had to do something hasty.

Emer Kenny quit to focus on her University studies but she was involved with writing the current series of E20 and might be involved in the next series, who knows?:).

I still find Fatboy pointless...

[Jords]

Poor Jean! Her character has me in stiches, when she kept asking which Sex in the City girl she'd be and the others were chatting about something different xD

Whats up with Billy? D: Got me thinking, does he have the kids? I cant remember, Im sure Honey died along with her dad in some accident :S

Michael is annoying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!! Kat's being a bit of a cowbag too >___>

[flamingGalah!]

It's hilarious that the script writers have suddenly remembered that Billy used to be an abusive thug. He originally looked after Jamie & he used to beat him up... Then all that was forgotten for many years & Billy became a lovable bad-luck character... Now he has been reminded that he was abused as a child he starts to be a thug again... :sleep:

Almost as ridiculous as Phil's extremely quick full on drug addiction & even speedier recovery :rolleyes:

[Josy]

Mind you, anyone else think EE are trying to bring the humour back to the show? I've noticed a few episodes now within the past week that have made me smile

Yeah I noticed lately too that they were throwing in a bit of light hearted humour again, Dot had a few lines that made me laugh last night.

I was thinking exactly that ^ while I was reading EE spoilers the other day, we have had all this stuff years ago with Billy and Jamie, now we have to watch the same storyline with him and Jay :sleep: and the Phil drug addiction stuff was crap imo, I think they are clutching at straws for storylines.

Meanwhile, Kat and Stacey's night out at the club descends into a brawl involving Janine, and Lily ends up in Ryan's hands when babysitter Pat takes her to him

About time the focus was on Billy:hugesmile:.

LOL catfight:joker:, no pun intended!.

I reckon Ryan will eventually bond with Lily and will plan to take her off Stacey when he finds out she killed Archie but then will realise Lily needs her mother and then after the truth is finally revealed, Jean's shocked and then Stacey is blackmailed to leave Albert Square and is helped to escape by the Slaters, Max and Ronnie etc.

[Josy]

Cant believe Easties wont be on until 9.30 because of the football :bored:

[Locke.]

It was just on? Lol

[Josy]

It was just on? Lol

The Scotland game is on BBC1 until 9.30 :conf:

[Smithy]

It was on in England just then

[Josy]

It was on in England just then


Its not here until after the game

[Marsh.]

You're not missing much. More Kate and Alfie crap. I'm sure they've re-printed scripts from there on/off relationship last time and just added in that non-character Michael.
I'd honestly rather go back to when the focus was on all the Mitchells and Max and Vanessa etc. This is just dragging.
After what Shane Ritchie said I'm seriously not looking forward to this story possibly strecthing out over two years. Think I should stop now.

[Kerry]

Thought I was going mad then as I saw it at the usual time. Thought I'd missed an extra episode

[Callum]

Tonight's episode was pretty good but Lauren annoyed me at the party and the Whitney and Peter snog was totally out of the blue.

Meanwhile, Kat and Stacey's night out at the club descends into a brawl involving Janine, and Lily ends up in Ryan's hands when babysitter Pat takes her to him

:shocked::shocked::shocked:

Picture from next week, Carol blames Lauren for Billie's death

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/eastenders/121010_abi_carol_lauren.jpg

I like how we felt if Billie was to die, it was due to being killed at war, but instead it is this which is shocking.

Bet Carol feels just as guilty for leaving him to it!

Emer Kenny quit to focus on her University studies but she was involved with writing the current series of E20 and might be involved in the next series, who knows?:).

I still find Fatboy pointless...

:O Fatboy is amazing! I always love the episodes when him and Mercy are in it, lol!

[Callum]

This week's episodes will be good I reckon. Lyndsey Coulson (Carol) is a great actress and I'm glad she's getting lots of airtime recently. This storyline is good imo because loads of people binge drink every night but many are unaware that it can lead to death.

He drunk a hell of a lot. One bottle of spirits could/would kill most. It's one thing that pissed me off about Phils drinking. Even though his body is used to drink he'd still be well unconcious (at least) with what EE showed him drinking

Poor Carol and Bianca:(. Lindsey Coulson and Patsy Palmer both have acted their socks off tonight!.

[Callum]

Such a sad episode tonight but Lindsey Coulson was absolutely incredible. Such a good actress and finally given a decent storyline. I hated how Lauren was just laughing when she entered Bianca's too, I can't wait for Carol to give her what for tomorrow. Horrible brat.

[Josy]

It was really sad tonight, I think I cried nearly the whole way through:bawling:

[Kerry]

Very sad. Poor Carol/Bianca :(

[Marsh.]

I saw the laugh as more of a nervous laugh. Mixed with "Is this for real?". Pretty natural reaction for someone to just laugh, not because they find it funny, but because they can't take it in. Bit like Carole couldn't take it in and was just numb.

[Jackie]

I cried as well brought back so many memories losing my teenage daughter the episode was well acted tonight and so real when carol walked home after heraring the news the sounds and fuzziness that you experience when hearing such tragic news was well presented because that is what you feel around you at that time.

Sorry to hear about your loss Jackie. :hug:

[Stacey.]

I was just waiting for her to cry D: I thought that'd be like the first thing you'd do, instead of just standing there. I know she was in shock and everything, still thought you'd start crying though..

[Callum]

Anyone else just hate Lauren Branning? I've gone from loving her to hating her. One thing I found funny about tonight's episode was Jane and Tanya talking on the sofa, Peter comes down "You alright Tan?" I loved that :laugh:

[Locke.]

Lauren is one of my favourite characters now

[flamingGalah!]

Anyone else just hate Lauren Branning? I've gone from loving her to hating her. One thing I found funny about tonight's episode was Jane and Tanya talking on the sofa, Peter comes down "You alright Tan?" I loved that :laugh:

Yeah I used to like the old Lauren, this new one has had a personality change along with her head :rolleyes: Just waiting for Ben Mitchell to come back with his new head & no doubt he will have grown about 4ft & will be a double hard bastard too :joker:

I thought Max was out of order though having a go at Carol at the end :nono:

Never liked him...

[Omen]

Is Billie dead?

Who's Billie?

[Stacey.]

I like the new Lauren, am just getting used to her but I prefer the other one.

[Stacey.]

Is Billie dead?

Who's Billie?

Yeah from drinking too much I think.

And if you're being serious, then he's Carol's son, also Whitney's boyfriend.

[flamingGalah!]

Is Billie dead?

Who's Billie?

Yes.

He was Carol's youngest son, that annoying chap who was sacked from Hollyoaks & used to be in Kerching! ;)

[Omen]

When did he die? Was it 2007, cos that is the age of this thread?

[Barbie]

The old lauren was better. I don't mind that she is now a cow but this new actress has a really irritating face. She really is annoying

[Kerry]

When did he die? Was it 2007, cos that is the age of this thread?

This week

[Jackie]

I liked the old lauren as well i hate the way they keep changing.

[Kerry]

Isn't Ben going to get a new head too?

[RichardWells]

That scene with Carol and Jim made me cry so much.

It's so sad that Jim will probably never talk again but the scene was still very effective.

[bbfan1991]

I don't like the new Lauren either:nono:, she's just filling in the teen rebelling role while Lucy is not on screen...

[Loukas]

Ooooh Interesting spoiler revolving into a 'Stacey twist.' This could possibly unwind Stacey's exit!!! :D ;)

EastEnders actress Lacey Turner has revealed details of the latest drama for her character Stacey Branning, who lets slip one of her darkest secrets in next week's episodes.

Forthcoming scenes on the BBC soap will see Stacey spend a night in a police cell with Janine, Kat, Kim and Pat after they all become embroiled in a huge brawl at R&R.

As the women bond behind bars, there's a big twist in store when Stacey admits that she was raped by Archie Mitchell last year. After making the confession, the mum-of-one immediately regrets doing so - fearing that the group will soon realise she was Archie's killer.

Speaking to Inside Soap about the storyline, Turner explained: "Kim comes up with a game for them all to play to pass the time. Someone has to name a certain scenario, and if anyone has been in that particular situation, they have to stand up. It's quite funny, because Janine and Stacey discover that they have a lot in common - which they're not best pleased about!

"They're having a real slanging match during the game, and the conversation turns to the fact that Janine was engaged to Archie. Pat and Janine are laying into Stacey for having Ryan's baby. It all gets too much for her, so she ends up branding Archie as a rapist."

Speculating on what could happen now that Janine and the others are aware of Stacey's motive, Turner added: "She's quite stupidly given her biggest enemy a huge clue to her darkest secret. She's safe for now, I think, as Janine hasn't made the connection. But who knows how long that's going to last?"

Stacey's guilt over Archie was first revealed in EastEnders' live episode back in February.

[Callum]

Isn't Ben going to get a new head too?

Yes, Ben has recently been recast and will be returning around Christmas time.

Also big exit storyline ahead for Bianca, apparently it involves the one thing that would make Bianca leave her kids and family behind. Maybe she becomes ill. :shocked:

[bbfan1991]

Ooooh Interesting spoiler revolving into a 'Stacey twist.' This could possibly unwind Stacey's exit!!! :D ;)



Stacey don't leave till early 2011 apparently with Jean and she will get a happy ending, they've promised and I believe them but not before the Archie thing comes out at Christmas (my prediction).

[bbfan1991]

Yes, Ben has recently been recast and will be returning around Christmas time.

Also big exit storyline ahead for Bianca, apparently it involves the one thing that would make Bianca leave her kids and family behind. Maybe she becomes ill. :shocked:

Seen an interesting idea on DS about Bee perhaps getting done for benefit fraud or not sending her kids to school?. Hope whatever they have planned makes sense...

[Kerry]

Yes, Ben has recently been recast and will be returning around Christmas time.

Is she leaving for good do you know? Or just maternity leave?

[bbfan1991]

Is she leaving for good do you know? Or just maternity leave?

Maternity Leave:).

[Kerry]

Seen an interesting idea on DS about Bee perhaps getting done for benefit fraud or not sending her kids to school?. Hope whatever they have planned makes sense...

Maybe something to do with one of the kids' dads. I can't understand why she'd ever leave her kids but then Carol did....

[Kerry]

Maternity Leave:).

Oh good. Maybe just illness or something then. I've loved having her back

[Kerry]

Or it could be for the kids own safety/benefit. She'd leave them if they were safer without her for a while

[Loukas]

Yes, Ben has recently been recast and will be returning around Christmas time.

Also big exit storyline ahead for Bianca, apparently it involves the one thing that would make Bianca leave her kids and family behind. Maybe she becomes ill. :shocked:

They would never get rid of Bianca.. Surely!?! :shocked:

:sad:

[edit]
Kill her off i mean.. Never kill her off??!! :/

[bbfan1991]

:sad:

[edit]

No Bianca's leave is only temporary because Patsy Palmer who plays her is pregnant:).

[Tom4784]

I prefer the new Lauren, this one can act and the character seems to have obtained a personality.

[bbfan1991]

EastEnders star Lacey Turner has revealed that she has been glad to revisit the "bubbly" side of her character Stacey Branning in recent weeks.

Speaking to Inside Soap, the actress confessed that she has noticed a change in her alter ego's attitude since Kat Moon (Jessie Wallace) returned to the Square last month.

Turner explained: "I've missed the old Stacey. I've been so lucky with my storylines, but it can get a bit tedious if I have to cry every day.

"Having Kat back has injected a bit of life into Stacey, so it's nice to be playing a bubbly girl again."

Meanwhile, in a separate interview with the magazine, EastEnders' executive producer Bryan Kirkwood hinted that Stacey will share many more scenes with Kat before she bows out of the soap.

Kirkwood said: "Kat helps Stacey reclaim some of the spirit that she's lost over the years. We see a return to their appetite for mischief."

Good:).

[Kerry]

Poor Carol :(

[Jords]

Poor Carol!

I LOL'd when Tiff said about Santa being God, and that God is called Harold xD

[Christina]

I saw Maddie the other day (the old Lauren) in the cinema :D

[Kerry]

Poor Carol!

I LOL'd when Tiff said about Santa being God, and that God is called Harold xD

LOL yes that was funny

You know, I never even realised but Tiffany was Biancas best friend who died years ago so she'll have named her daughter after her :(

[bbfan1991]

Poor Carol:(, now realising that she didn't really know her son as well as she thought she did.

Bianca and Tiffany plus Kat/Kim were funny tonight, loving the mix between the drama and lighter scenes:hugesmile:.

[RichardWells]

Poor Carol, I know she could be tough at times but nothing she said or done to Billie warranted him saying that to his mum.

And it's Billie who ends up dying, Karma is a bitch lol.

[Barbie]

LOL at Tiffany last night

Patsy is just going on maternity leave, its already confirmed she is coming back. I read that they had to come up with a reason for her to leave her kids and it all came down to one option.

Im thinking bianca would only leave her kids if forced, ie Prison. Because they cant kill her off when she is returning and why else would she leave her kids.

[Callum]

OMG! :shocked:

Grief-stricken Carol Jackson makes another decision that she may live to regret in EastEnders later this month as she seeks comfort in the arms of Billie's friend Connor.

After enduring the heartbreaking day of Billie's cremation, Carol returns home and seems to be on the verge of a breakdown as she sits alone and sheds more silent tears.

However, there's more drama in store for the troubled mum when Connor bursts through the door and angrily confronts her over banning him from the funeral.

Carol is in no mood to argue and stays calm in the face of Connor's provocation. Instead, she reminisces over the time that Connor and Billie spent growing up together and tells her visitor what a cute kid he used to be.

When Connor relents and gives Carol a comforting kiss, the gesture leads to them heading to bed together…

[Smithy]

ewwww ;o

[Kerry]

Ick!

[bbfan1991]

Loving the partying in R&R and Stacey looks hot plus is having fun:D.

[bbfan1991]

PMSL when the TV fell and Kim still calling Janine.. Janice:laugh2:

[bbfan1991]

:shocked:Naughty Roxy spiking Syed's drink but luckily he noticed.

[bbfan1991]

Lmao Billy drunk and dissing everyone then punching the copper:laugh:.

[Stacey.]

LOL at that episode.

Janine ftw :love:

And they seriously need to bring back Jake Moon.

[bbfan1991]

Kat and Stacey double teaming Janine:):p.

[Jords]

LMFAO that fight scene was funny, then Billy planting the copper at the end there xD

[Kazanne]

LOL,they've all gone mad at R&Rs,great episode tonight,LOL

[bbfan1991]

I'm Billy Mitchell and don't you forget it:joker:.

[bbfan1991]

Forgot that Kim called Jean.. June:D:D.

[Callum]

Loved tonight's episode, the fighting was so funny to watch. Billy was just a ***** though, I really thought he was out of order to everyone.

[Jords]

Oh and yeah, forgot all about Syed and Christian since they finally got together!

[Mrluvaluva]

Janine's snatch...

http://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t277/avulavulrm/Bury-1.jpg

[Visage]

Why was it so bright in R&Rs ?

I thought night clubs and most bars/pubs had subtle lighting.

Ya know, because that way one is never too picky about who they pull/kiss..........:D

[Kazanne]

Janine's snatch...

http://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t277/avulavulrm/Bury-1.jpg

Saw on the front of a mag today that Janine kills baby Lily!!!! Is this just a overblown headline or does she actually do it?anyone know?

[Visage]

Well, they've already announced they are going to kill off a baby in the new year, either Kat's or Ronnie's, I doubt they will do the same with Lily.

Still this is Eastenders I guess.

[Visage]

I heard a whisper Carol will sleep with Billie's best mate soon.........

[Kerry]

Not keen on eps such as tonights. The 'open heart-ers'

[Kerry]

Stacey and Janine. :love:

Good mix of fun and serious tonight

[Locke.]

Alfie & Roxy > Alfie & Kat

[bbfan1991]

Carol is losing it big time pushing everyone away:(.

Janine being nice for a change:shocked:, the Roxy and Alfie scenes were funny but she's not in the league of Kat:nono:.

Stacey awesome as usual:love:.

[Kerry]

Janine will never be nice for long :laugh:

[bbfan1991]

Janine will never be nice for long :laugh:

Obviously, I love it when she's viler than before but now she gets more panto and theres bad girls on the other soaps who are much better;).

[Kerry]

I hate Janine with a passion. I know I shouldn't, it's just a character, but I want to kill my TV when I see her :joker:

[Josy]

I hate Janine with a passion. I know I shouldn't, it's just a character, but I want to kill my TV when I see her :joker:

I hate Janine too, she makes my blood boil, even when she's just talking she pisses me off :laugh:

[Kerry]

I hate Janine too, she makes my blood boil, even when she's just talking she pisses me off :laugh:

I only have to see her face and my blood pressure goes through the roof. Stupidly though, even as herself offscreen :laugh2:

[bbfan1991]

Carol's scenes really tugged at my heartstrings today:(, it reinforces the effect of the death of a loved one has:bawling:.

[Callum]

Hated tonight's episode, really bored me. Getting fed up with EE lately, I hope it improves, the quality of the episodes is shockingly bad.

[bbfan1991]

Kat and Stacey soaking the Market Inspector:laugh2:.

[Stacey.]

I purely hate Carol.

[bbfan1991]

Stacey working in the Vic now for a bit before she leaves:love:.

I'm liking Harry Gold!:shocked:, he's sinister and chilling.. enjoying seeing more of Vanessa too and liked how she just blurted out that he was not Jodie's dad:cat:.

[Jords]

Kat and Stacey soaking the Market Inspector:laugh2:.

:joker::joker::joker:

[Kerry]

It did upset me a bit for various reasons but I am so fed up of the doom and gloom. I know I keep saying it....

[flamingGalah!]

I purely hate Carol.

WHY?!?!???? :conf: :conf:

She is consumed with grief, the poor woman! And Lindsey Coulson's brilliant acting yet again tonight had me with tears pouring down my face... :bawling:

If she doesn't win a heap of awards next year it's a fix!

[bbfan1991]

It did upset me a bit for various reasons but I am so fed up of the doom and gloom. I know I keep saying it....

Eastenders is better when it sticks to the drama which it has always been great at but i've enjoyed the more fun and lighter stuff they've had.. they're good at what they do, imagine if Corrie had an whole episode of doom and gloom instead of the comedy which they are known for?:shocked:.

She's such a rude bitch too.

I agree, it's too depressing.

[flamingGalah!]

She's such a rude bitch too.

Whaaaaaaaat??? She is a brilliant actress, definitely the best actress in EastEnders & possibly in any soap. The way she is acting out Carol's grief is brilliant, I'm not EastEnders biggest fan but I have been moved to tears several times in this storyline...

Yeah before Billie died Carol was a bit of a cold biatch, but everything she is doing since has been due to her grief... Cut her some slack! :nono:

[Stacey.]

I love the new Lauren so much now, she's actually a legend. :D

[Twilight]

i heard a You me at six song in the background.

[bbfan1991]

I've read Connor will be sticking around:shocked:.

Lauren finds out that Stacey killed Archie next week so this is the start of the exit storyline for Stace:(.

I have no sympathy for Janine whatsoever:devil:, Stacey has been out of order towards Ryan recently though;).

Billy and Jay that random scene LOL:joker:.

[Barbie]

So many random scenes recently. What was with Billy and Jay last night!? and the tomato ketchup on Alfies shirt. Then Roxy spiking Syed's drink, no follow up just over in 5

Really not liking the new exec producer

[Kerry]

LOL is it supposed to look like they are really driving that car? :laugh: I've seen better effects on Star Trek in the 80's!

[RichardWells]

I'm waiting for Ryan to say to Janine "we have to get off this track as you saw what happened to Jackson on Emmerdale" LOL.

[Stacey.]

I really hope Janine and Ryan don't die or anything. D:

Maybe baby Lily will, I'm not sure..

[Jords]

That cliffhanger on Friday with Ryan, Janine and Lily stuck on the train track was brilliant! :shocked:

But its so true about soaps copying each other xD

[Callum]

I didn't really find the whole stopping on the level crossing scene convincing last night, like the chances of someone stopping there of all places and then incidently running out of petrol is very slim? Meh not fussed on this storyline in general though :shrug:

[Kerry]

Is Lily THE most snatched baby in history. She's had 50 storylines already and she ain't even a year old yet....

[Visage]

But its so true about soaps copying each other xD

I don't think that is the case really. All the soaps follow a common theme, based on a group of neighbours living in each other's homes. Or sharing the same pub/cafe etc..

They've gotta clash at some point as they are all on 4/5 hours a week.

[Kerry]

Sibling for Lily? :shocked: :joker:

[flamingGalah!]

The car on the railtrack thing was hilarious, the car so obviously wasn't there... It was as convincing as that frozen lake & backdrop that Sean Slater drove into :laugh2:
