[Kerry]

Anyone notice Jacks rapid recovery tonight? Hobbles into Max's place then dumped the walking stick and swaggered into the kitchen!

[Callum]

Yeah I noticed that, but in all fairness I do think his disability has been handed well, he hasn't just been in a wheelchair for a week and then able to walk again.

Felt sorry for Vanessa last night :(

[bbfan1991]

Yeah I noticed that, but in all fairness I do think his disability has been handed well, he hasn't just been in a wheelchair for a week and then able to walk again.

Felt sorry for Vanessa last night :(

I did to an extent about being forced to sleep with Harry because she is desperate not to lose Jodie, then I think she has herself to blame for keeping it secret that long and having a go at Darren because he decided to be honest where as she wanted to keep it secret but the truth does come out eventually;).

It's Jodie who I feel sorry for:(.

[bbfan1991]

Loving Carol's slick new haircut:).. I think Glenda is really coming into her own too:), as for Roxy words fail me like how could you blow all that money already but it's typical her:rolleyes:.

Aww at Stacey holding Lily's photoframe:love:, is it part of the dress code for Vanessa to keep wearing white?:joker:.

Liking Rack;).

[Jords]

LOLing at Jack + Max thinking theyre the new Grant + Phil.

[bbfan1991]

LOLing at Jack + Max thinking theyre the new Grant + Phil.

I know, they lack the charisma and all out villain instincts:laugh2:.

[Kerry]

How the HELL has Roxy managed to lose £3M???? She'd be making thousands a day in interest on that kind money

[Stacey.]

I really do think Alfie and Roxy will have an affair or something.

[Kerry]

Haha who do the Brannings think they are? The Krays? :joker:

[Kerry]

I really do think Alfie and Roxy will have an affair or something.

I really hope not :(

[Stacey.]

I really hope not :(

I want them to :D They get on really well.

[Kerry]

I want them to :D They get on really well.

Looks like they may do but I hope not

[Locke.]

Max and Jack are great

[Jords]

I hope not too Kerry but I can see it happened.

Max and Jack are a right joke, LMAO.

[bbfan1991]

I really do think Alfie and Roxy will have an affair or something.

They better not:(, Alfie belongs to Kat and not having an affair with that bint.. however nothing will surprise me if the writers do a storyline like that.

Roxy prefers the hunks, please EE bring one in for her because she's already had Sean, Dr Al and Jack LOL and is better of being friends with Alfie for the banter;).

[bbfan1991]

Aunt Sal is very hilarious:D, she should be made a regular.

LOL Shirley caught the bouquet, can't believe she and Phil nicked Roxy's cash.. serves the bint right:joker:.

Can't stand the new Lauren, she ''doesn't feel safe'' and thinks Max would hurt her, she tried to run her dad over silly caah:rolleyes:.

Kat, Kim and Stacey are bloody hilarious, liked Ronnie and Jack finally saying their vows too:).

[Kerry]

Loved tonights episode. I even got teary (again!) at the wedding that was and the wedding that wasn't :D

[Jords]

LOVED that quick scene with Shirley and Phil on the bed with the £20k, absolutely epic.

[Kerry]

God knows how it's not going to show they have it though :laugh:

[Kerry]

Not sure if this has been posted but

Ronnies baby dies from cot death and she steals Kats

[bbfan1991]

Lauren:mad:,. taped Stacey.. I so hope Stacey gets away with killing Archie:devil:.

OMG Shirley in that blue coat and those black boots:joker:, Phil soon couldn't wait to get up those stairs:laugh2:.

[Jords]

Affia is a psycho. :love:

[bbfan1991]

Affia is a psycho. :love:

LOL she's weird but I like her:).

Knew that Lauren had a back up copy of that recording:mad:, Max is meant too be smart but he didn't bank of Lauren being one step ahead:rolleyes:.

[Kerry]

Loving the Masoods again at the moment :joker:

[bbfan1991]

Shirley, Kat,Bianca, Phil and Alfie:D.

I'm liking Glenda...

[bbfan1991]

Stacey:love:.

[flamingGalah!]

I loved Jane having a quick squirt of fanny fresh up her skirt in the hotel bathroom, dirty mare... :laugh2: Massood obviously didn't want fish with his chips...

[bbfan1991]

[Kerry]

Stacey and Ryan on the car. Give me a break. This show is the pits now.

She'll get a cold arse thats for sure

[InOne]

Right infront of the kid as well :nono:

[Callum]

Hated last night's episodes, the kiss was so cringeworthy and went on for too long. Have some respect too, I mean doing it on the car bonnet, eugh! I feel like the quality of the show has really gone down recently and it's a shame.

Bang on (excuse the pun) and Jane spraying herself took ages too:D.

I'm still enjoying the show but it's not nowhere near it's best, I can sort of understand why Lacey Turner quit now:).

[bbfan1991]

WOW Stacey is looking fine tonight, no wonder Ryan can resist:blush:.

Cringe at the acting when Ian punched Masood, how uncomfortable for Afia being with Tamwar after whats happened plus Chryed giving advice:shocked:.

[bbfan1991]

Poor Tamwar being banned from seeing Afia by his dad.. I hope he finds out about Janood and uses that information to his advantage.

Rumour about a possible Eastenders storyline thats going around the net but nothing confirmed so far or the character it would happen to if true.
Gang Rape:shocked:.

[Kerry]

Jean yesterday with Lily's present. Her face is a picture :joker:

[bbfan1991]

Jean yesterday with Lily's present. Her face is a picture :joker:

I'm going to be :( when she Tries to drown herself ater Stacey leaves (she doesn't go to jail:D) and knowing that her beloved daughter killed vile Archie, thankfully Ronnie saves her and Jean decides to section herself.

[bbfan1991]

2 last weeks of Stacey Slater:(:bawling:.

Jane is really bugging me at the moment.. Janine is too panto for my liking but they should show more Tamwar as Himesh Patel is good with the Comedy.

OMFG Chryed fans are going to go crazy on DS:joker: Christian with another man?.

[Kerry]

I'm going to be :( when she Tries to drown herself ater Stacey leaves (she doesn't go to jail:D) and knowing that her beloved daughter killed vile Archie, thankfully Ronnie saves her and Jean decides to section herself.

Awww :(

[InOne]

Anyone notice the dig at Corrie in tonight ep? LOL

[bbfan1991]

Anyone notice the dig at Corrie in tonight ep? LOL

I think it was a humorous one since Corrie is liked for it's humour and comedy:).

[Kerry]

I thought it was funny :D

[Callum]

Lots of EE fans unhappy with the way the show is going at the moment. I hate this new Stacey, it's reminiscent of the Max/Stacey affair days. She hasn't stopped to think about Bradley at once, in all honesty I'm quite glad she's leaving for the sake of her character and her as an actress. It's such a shame she's been given such a crap exit storyline, all the hard work she's done for the show over the years and they give her this? It's unfair.

Only saving graces of the show for me lately are the older characters - Pat, Dot, even Glenda is growing on me a bit. Hate how their completely ruining Ian and Jane's marriage by making him have an affair. Bryan Kirkwood has ruined this show. :(

[bbfan1991]

Thanks Callum:), indeed it's been building up.

[bbfan1991]

Some people on DS have been on Janine's side against Racey but how will they justify Janine wanting revenge on poor baby Lily too who hasn't done nothing to her?:shocked:.

[flamingGalah!]

I'm on Janine's side, can't stand Stacey...

Or that nasty skank Whitney!! Poor Peter... :(

[bbfan1991]

:shocked: I like Whitney, Peter is a decent guy.. I really can't understand how these girls find bab boys attractive and like being treated as crap:conf:.

Janine is too panto everytime:sleep:, they need a new bitch to knock her off the perch.

[flamingGalah!]

I'd rather have Peter over that mate of Billy's... Wouldn't kick Ryan out for farting though... ;)

[bbfan1991]

I can't abide that child either, bet she's a right prococious little madam in real life...

[bbfan1991]

I can't abide that child either, bet she's a right prococious little madam in real life...

I do like her but she's overrated;).

[Jords]

Im loving Janine lately!

Christmas/New Year week sounds sooo good.

[Kerry]

LMAO @ Ben

[flamingGalah!]

LMAO @ Ben

I was LMAO @ all the bloody Mitchells, ridiculous that Jay is now some sort of Kray... :sleep:

[Callum]

Liked tonight's episode

Hopefully this new Ben is an improvement on the old one who was so so so annoying. Janine has been great lately, she's grew on me again. Love her scenes with Pat. Glenda coming across slightly desperate tonight, I thought.

[Kerry]

I was LMAO @ all the bloody Mitchells, ridiculous that Jay is now some sort of Kray... :sleep:

Very silly

[Callum]

I love how EastEnders make the Mitchells look like some rough gangster style gang, it actually makes me laugh when Jay says things like "That's Phil Mitchell's new place" to scare people off like he did with those boys the other week :laugh:

[Kerry]

The Mitchells are an embrassment now. Billy is over 50 FFS and Phil can't be far off that, if not that or older!

[bbfan1991]

Yeah the Mitchell bit was cringing:joker:. Glenda is so cheap and Carol is humiliating herself with Connor, he's a user.

Shirley is fab!:D. Going to miss Jean and Stacey scenes:(.

[Kerry]

Glendas a right old slapper. Phil sleeping with his auntie is making me feel ill, even if she is only his aunt through marriage

[flamingGalah!]

Yep. Especially when he calls her aunty Glenda :yuk:

[Stacey.]

Jay: "Maybe he's tap-dancing" :joker:

[Kerry]

Yep. Especially when he calls her aunty Glenda :yuk:

:yuk:

[bbfan1991]

New Ben is such a geek:shocked::joker:.

[Kerry]

Ben looks like Jay :joker:

[Stacey.]

I'm not a great fan of the new Ben.. he hasn't even spoke yet :L

[bbfan1991]

Caronnor makes me want to puke like Philenda does:laugh2:.

[Kerry]

I'm not a great fan of the new Ben.. he hasn't even spoke yet :L

Probably going to have a really deep voice so they daren't let him speak. Or he'll speak just before the 'dum dums' :joker:

[Kerry]

Not hard to learn his lines I guess :D

[bbfan1991]

Jane has really got on my nerves recently, have ups and downs with Ian however he's actually more likeable at the minute:shocked:.

[Kerry]

What an annoying ringtone

[bbfan1991]

Finally IT speaks:joker:.

[Kerry]

A word :shocked:

[Kerry]

Woah good catch

[bbfan1991]

Go Shirley Carter:cheer2:.

[Stacey.]

Probably going to have a really deep voice so they daren't let him speak. Or he'll speak just before the 'dum dums' :joker:

Yeah. :laugh: It did sound deep from what I could make out.

[bbfan1991]

Always some dirty reference from Julie, calling Billy ''Skidmark'' then just talking about him having a hard on:joker:.

[Kerry]

Feel sorry for Shirley. All the time and effort she puts into Phil and his family and he's mankin' behind her back :(

[bbfan1991]

Feel sorry for Shirley. All the time and effort she puts into Phil and his family and he's mankin' behind her back :(

He and Glenda are going to regret that:mad:.

[Kerry]

He and Glenda are going to regret that:mad:.

They'd better

[bbfan1991]

I'm going to miss B when she leaves for a bit:(, love her and Whitney's scenes.. Whitney is so gullible:(.

Stacey scene was good earlier with the line about Lily:love:.

[Kerry]

He's gone from a whine to a whisper

[bbfan1991]

Bad Girls reference:laugh2:, Shirley knows Yvonne Atkins.. they better watch out now:devil:.

[Kerry]

Ooooooooooooh the mucky pups

[bbfan1991]

Ben vs Jay the gloves are off:devil:.

[Kerry]

Ben got Balls :shocked:

[Kerry]

"I've got a weapon" *waves bun* :laugh2:

[Kerry]

I knew he was gonna do that :D

[bbfan1991]

Ha Ha that punch ''Actions speak louder than words'':laugh2::D.

[Kerry]

lol good episode

[30stone]

Aha that boy...

Ohhh wow hes even less scary than the old ben...

Now they are gunna make him all hard and hes gunna beat up jay or something.. Which is stupid.

[Kerry]

It is stupid. As if he'd change that much. He's only been in a young offenders unit.

[Callum]

I hate how Ben has had a personality transplant. I think he's a better actor, but he's too different from the old Ben. Same thing happened with Lauren Branning, she's way different to the old one. It's as if the producers think we are dumb enough to be able to forget a character's personality.

[Kerry]

I actually think Laurens ok. Still a moody little sh!t who can't stand up straight but Ben is ridiculous

[Jords]

Both new Ben and Lauren are completely different, its kinda stupid.

LOL at how Glenda has become the Square's bike when Ian and Phil are put under stress xD

[Kerry]

Both new Ben and Lauren are completely different, its kinda stupid.

LOL at how Glenda has become the Square's bike when Ian and Phil are put under stress xD

It's vomit evoking

[Callum]

The whole "Aunty Glenda" thing is actually revolting. You'd think she'd have more class to succumb to such low depths as having sex with a relative.

[Tom4784]

I think the new Ben's an improvement in everyway, the change of personality is realistic really you wouldn't expect the character to come back into it with a musical number....well...not now :laugh: Lauren didn't have a personality before so the new her's an improvement too.

[bbfan1991]

Eastenders has been in a lull recently but they're building up to the big stories and I have to say Christmas/New Year looks promising and from there on so it'll be back to it's best:).

[Kerry]

I've liked the lighter, funnier side of EE

[Jords]

The whole "Aunty Glenda" thing is actually revolting. You'd think she'd have more class to succumb to such low depths as having sex with a relative.

That is proper cringey, dont know what the producers are thinking :/

[Locke.]

This whole new Ben thing is really the most cringeworthy thing I've ever seen on TV

[Kerry]

I actually knew someone who was mankin with his 'auntie' (through marriage aunt, like Phil)

It grossed me out then and does now

[Kerry]

Why's Jay all of a sudden in with Phil? He's Billy's ward

[Kerry]

Ewww They're off again

[bbfan1991]

I think Ben pushed Glenda:joker:.

Looks like Sonia is returning before Bianca leaves..

http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/proginfo/tv/2011/wk3/fri.shtml#fri_eastenders

[Callum]

Liked Glenda tonight, even though her laying into practically everyone at the party was a bit OTT. Not a fan of Ronnie anymore so not happy to see her and Jack back and up to their usual tricks. New Ben sounds so different to the old one, not very fond of him at the moment. Loved the references from Kat and Alfie to Nana Moon, that's when I remember really loving the show, nice to know she's not forgotton.

I originally thought it was Peter who pushed Glenda but then the person picked up her ring and why would Peter want that for? So that makes me think it was Connor, becauce he could sell it off for a bit of cash although why he would push her down the stairs, I can't work out :conf:

[Marsh.]

New Ben sounds so different to the old one, not very fond of him at the moment.

It's a different actor, cut the producers some slack, they can't dub the old voice lol.
I loved the way Glenda looked at Heather "Where would I start?"

[Callum]

It's a different actor, cut the producers some slack, they can't dub the old voice lol.
I loved the way Glenda looked at Heather "Where would I start?"

I know but old Ben used to have such an irritating childish voice and I find it hard to believe his voice could both break and completely change to "East End" in a matter of months. :shrug:

Me too, Glenda's grown on me a lot lately.

[Lewis.]

I agree with your comments about Lauren. She's totally changed, too much for the show and I think that's the road that the producers are going down with the new Ben. I'm ashamed to say that I miss the old Ben quite a lot now.

[Marsh.]

I know but old Ben used to have such an irritating childish voice and I find it hard to believe his voice could both break and completely change to "East End" in a matter of months. :shrug:

His voice wasn't as deep as I expected. Kind of like Daniel Radcliffe's in the second Potter film, no longer "squeaky" but croaky rather than deep.
The accent is annoying though, it sounds as though the actor's trying too hard.

[Callum]

Former EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy is to make another appearance as Sonia Fowler in the New Year, Digital Spy can confirm.

In early 2011, fans will see Sonia return to Albert Square for one episode as she finds herself drawn into a new storyline centring around her half-sister Bianca Jackson (Patsy Palmer).

Sonia's sudden reappearance in Walford comes after a huge confrontation between Carol, Whitney and Connor sees truths emerge over Connor's relationships with Bianca's mother and stepdaughter.

After events come to a head, Bianca mysteriously disappears from the Square - but Sonia's comeback sees her provide some answers to questions that Carol and Ricky have about the feisty mum's whereabouts.

A Walford insider revealed: "True to form, Bianca has got herself into big trouble while trying to protect her family and, scared about what might happen, she does a runner.

"When she suddenly goes missing, Sonia turns up unannounced and drops the bombshell that she knows where Bianca is and what she is going to do next."

Sonia's brief return will also see some other truths revealed as viewers discover what she and husband Martin have been getting up to away from Walford.

Cassidy's last appearance in EastEnders was in February, when Sonia attended Ricky and Bianca's wedding.


Very happy about Sonia returning, will be good to see her again, just a shame she isn't coming back full time although I could see that happening soon to be honest, she hasn't been in anything much since leaving has she?

[Kerry]

I don't like Sonia :(

[Callum]

I don't like Sonia :(

Why not? :shocked:

[Kerry]

Why not? :shocked:

Mix really. She only comes back for the cash and she can't act

[Stacey.]

I don't like Sonia either, but it'll be sort of good to see her again.

[InOne]

Glenda is such a feisty cougar :love:

Wonder if they thought how ridiculous it looks Ian and Ben brothers all those years ago when Ian and Phil are like the same age lol

[Marsh.]

As long as we don't have to endure another forced lesbian storyline again then it's fine.

[Lewis.]

YEY :) Fat Sonia! Woohooo :) Love Natalie Cassidy.. she's great!

[Callum]

Enjoyed tonight's episode, liked the effects used to show Ryan's blurred vision. Nice to see Ronnie and Stacey bond as well. :)

[Kerry]

I'm sick of Ronnie. She's gonna be unbearable with the next storyline of hers

[Callum]

I'm sick of Ronnie. She's gonna be unbearable with the next storyline of hers

I agree, getting fed up of her moaning.

In other news Lacey Turner has become a new spokeswoman for the Royal Mail over Christmas, good on her!

Haha love the pics. Pity Royal Mail have just announced Xmas deliveries are so far behind and most people won't get their Xmas stuff :joker:

[Jords]

Sonia. :love:

I want her to return permently.

[InOne]

Meh, was never a fan of Sonia.

[Callum]

Anyone just see the new trailer for Christmas Day on BBC One? Looks amazing!

Showed Jean ringing the police on Stacey (:shocked:) and Ronnie and Roxy asking Stacey "was it you?", shots of Max and Ryan saying they will help her, Janine saying to her "your a murderer!" and one last shot of Stacey looking over Albert Square. Exciting!

[Kerry]

EastEnders hardman Phil Mitchell will suffer a heart attack in a dramatic new storyline, reports have revealed.

The show regular - played by Steve McFadden - will collapse at Walford nightclub R&R in the New Year as his health takes a sudden turn for the worse.

According to The Mirror, a further twist will see Phil taunted and "left for dead" by his long-time nemesis Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt), who witnesses his shock medical scare.

The surprise turn of events comes after Phil discovers Ian's affair with Albert Square temptress Glenda (Glynis Barber) and demands cash in return for his silence - while continuing his own secret relationship with the blonde.

A source said: "Ian follows Phil into R&R to give him the [blackmail] money but he walks in on Phil and Glenda getting it on. The passion is too much for Phil and he collapses.

"Phil is gasping for air and Glenda is yelling for help. Ian tells her to go and call an ambulance while he waits. He then promises to tell Phil's girlfriend Shirley about his affair and take his son Ben to live with him if Phil doesn't make it. Ian then leaves him for dead."

Phil's new storyline is expected to air in January.

:shocked:

I haven't seen it, have you got the video please?. I hope Jean puts that phone down LOL:p.

[bbfan1991]

^ Just saw the video:D, ooh it's interesting. Although I do think that Stacey will manage to get away because Eastenders want Lacey Turner to return at some point in the future and plus Lacey said that Stacey's exit is relevant to the 6 years she's had on the square and that she is happy with it.

Although Archie was her dad Ronnie hated him and after what he did to her it would be stupid if she wanted the killer to pay, we all know Roxy would be the opposite but Stacey was Sean's sister so maybe she backs off, I doubt it though...

[Jords]

Phil's storyline, ooooer.

[Jords]

Ian will be in sh!t when his health fixes up!

[Marsh.]

Why can't they just give Phil a rest. Hopefully this story means he has to go abroad (as they all do) to recuperate. Sick to death of McFadden's hard man acting, he's well past it. At least Ross Kemp knew when enough was enough.

[Lewis.]

I'd like to see Tracey actually have a storyline. She's always left out.

[Marsh.]

Because she's a glorified extra.

And just a sidenote, watched some of the omnibus today and what the hell has happened to Shirley's hair? It's always been wild but recently she's really looking like some kind of werewolf.

[Callum]

:shocked:

Christmas Day cheer in Albert Square? We should be so lucky.

Could be to do with Bianca's arrest?

[bbfan1991]

I think Janine stabs Ryan after he with Max helps Stacey to escape from the police, I cannot see Eastenders killing her off as they want Lacey to return in the future and want Stacey to have an happy ending for once plus Lacey and Jake were spotted filming scenes at an airport, the Daily Mail in fact and they were the first to report about Bradley jumping off the Vic last year and were right despite a denial by EE bosses;).

[Firewire]

I'm looking forward to this week's episodes and for HD on Saturday!

There are extra scenes on the Red Button feature for everyone who has Freeview, Sky or Virgin Media, after tonight's episode, Thursday's episode and Friday's episode press the red button on your remote and you get an extra scene relating to the Stacey storyline. :)

According to the sun, Lacey Turners sister, Lily has been cast as new characters Shenice while Tamara Wall has been confirmed as playing the mum, friend of Kat, Martine. Looks like these are two of the new family.

This doesnt fill me with much joy. Eastenders can be lousy at bringing in new characters, particularly families (Ferreras, the recentish Wicks's, Denise's family), because they bombard the episodes rather than letting them settle in gradually. And I dont like seeing too much of a character before I get to know them.

That said, sometimes it works fine. The Slaters fitted in instantly, as did Ronnie and Roxy. So we'll see.

Hope Stacey doesnt die!

[bbfan1991]

Pat is laughable, she gives a damn more about Stacey having her way with Ryan more than Janine trying to kill him, she used to be able to see through Janine and all of a sudden she's acting like Janine is butter that wouldn't melt.

Stacey is no saint either with some of the things she's done but she has her flaws, deep down I think she's a good person at heart and some of the things that happened to her are of circumstances:(.

[Callum]

First time tonight I thought EE was good again, really great episode. Loved the last few scenes in the Vic and Dot fixing Denise's laptop made me laugh. :laugh:

More lighter scenes being filtered in but Eastenders is at it's best with the drama;).

It's annoying how women are always branded as homewreckers during affairs, the men who have wives/partners clearly can't keep it in their pants and it takes two to tango;).

I always thought that Vanessa and Tanya got on well. The last time Tanya was in it they were friendly and Tanya helped get her back to Max. So I was a bit confused with the bitchy comments that started. But I hated the forced and sickly sweet smiles everyone threw around the room when Lauren mentioned Bradley. Yuck.

I didn't get why they were bitchy again either. Very strange

I think it was because Abbie said she didn't like the dinner in a rather rude way and Vanessa just told her to eat it. Tanya didn't like her speaking to her daughter like that so bitchy comments followed. :rolleyes:

Rumour's been floating that

Greg is Jodie's biological father

Journalists got to watch a preview of the cot death episodes, and the response isn't the usual "oh it made me cry" they seem quite disturbed by it

They will also see Kat Moon (Jessie Wallace) rushed to hospital in blood-soaked pyjamas after husband Alfie (Shane Richie) finds her haemorrhaging in her bed.

Later Ronnie, who has already lost two children this year, swaps her dead baby for Kat's healthy one, which has been left alone at home amid the mayhem.

God, this is depressing even by Eastenders standards at Christmas.
This quote above suggests the baby is left at home alone when Kat is rushed to hospital. Bryan Kirkwood doesn't have a clue. I agree with the reviewer:

"There's a place in soaps to tackle the serious issue of cot death. But Bryan Kirkwood has gone in with all the subtlety of a bulldozer and forgotten his family audience."

[flamingGalah!]

Typical of EastEnders though to do something so horrible & depressing during the festive season...:nono: Don't think I will bother watching tbh, there is enough depression in life without bringing everyone down at a happy time of the year...

She's been through the ropes!

The New Year's episode are going to be absolutely awful to watch by the sounds of things then.

Great episode but Stacey really isn't doing herself any favours in this storyline is she? She's not very likeable any more

Aye, I don't get how on DS people say they're "excited" for the episodes, it's totally the wrong word to use. I hate the baby swap angle about it too, it makes it seem sensationalist rather than being a moving story

[Kerry]

I knew about the baby swap but this is sounding appalling :(

[Marsh.]

I don't think we'll see a lot of blood. Probably like when Ronnie found Archie's body and had blood on her hands. They can't show too much before the watershed.

[Kerry]

Wheres the blood from?!?!?!?! Spoiler me!

[flamingGalah!]

Wheres the blood from?!?!?!?! Spoiler me!

Her minge I'd imagine...

[Kerry]

Oh, I was thinking about the baby swap

[Callum]

I was reading an article earlier and it said the episodes are made even more tragic by the camera angles and the silences. This is going to be hard viewing...

I really hope they do it justice though. Obviously Ronnie is mentally unwell and they need to show that properly, I hope it's not made into a storyline where it's going to build up to "When will Kat find out?" - that will be totally disrespectful if it's made like that, with trailers with text saying "How long until the secret's out?"

[Jords]

It would be good if they can hold the secret from Kat, this BIG secret none of the characters know except Ronnie and the audience. Maybe in 20 years time it could finally come out providing the show is still running, but, I doubt they'd do that.

Would be 1 big reveal!

[Kerry]

Does Ryan go with Stacey? I'm guessing not :( He'd better not go back to his trampy wife :mad:

[bbfan1991]

^ He might do Kerry because Neil McDermott who plays him is on paternity leave unless he's already returned with EE filming so far in advance.

This baby swap is going to be heartbreaking, Jessie and Sam are going to be brilliant acting it out and bound to affect them being mothers themselves plus it'll be great to see Shane doing some non comedy material. Only certainty is that this storyline is probably the ending of Ronnie's character:(.

[Kerry]

I love Ryan and Stacey together :love: So much affection. Infact so much so I'd think they were actually dating. He looks at her so fondly :shocked:

[Callum]

Personally I can't stand Ryan. He's more of a walking STD than Whitney. Confessed to loving Janine yet all that feeling's gone away now, how believable. :rolleyes: I don't buy the fling with Stacey neither, her true love was Bradley and the way she's acting is totally disrespectful to him, I loved Max's line yesterday "What about Bradley?" - she seems to have forgot about him. I'm glad she's going now before they ruin the character even more.

What is it with EE and making characters unlikeable just before they leave? Key examples are Peggy and now Stacey

Love Janine. Take Stacey down.

About the baby swap, if it's done as realistic as Billy's death episode then it will be effective. But as a storyline it's just gonna completely destroy what's left of Ronnie's character. I'd say give it six months before Samantha Janus announces she's leaving. Then the "reveal" will be next Christmas.
Was watching some clips on Youtube from when Ronnie and Roxy first joined and they've took Ronnie down the wrong route. I really liked her back then.

Loved the final scenes with Max and LOL Janine did all that for nothing:devil:. Jean was great too, being against Stacey at first, had a feeling that despite everything Stacey means everything to her so would eventually realise that Stacey needed to go and that Janine lied about one thing.

Archie was an evil man and Max finally got Ronnie to see sense during her he's my dad speech with ''Why do you care, you hated him'', Ronnie probably thought at least Stacey had the guts to do it:D. Roxy clearly angry and glad Ronnie shut her up!

Lacey has always liked the Bradley thing but the writers have been inconsistent with her character for a while now. BIB applies to me too!

Yeah I agree, she was given horrific material to work with in her last few weeks and the writing was damaging to the character but I still felt a lot of compassion for her seeing her depart on the plane. What does BIB mean?

I do too, I hope so anyway. I think it would be a shame to see Lacey appear on shows such as Strictly or IAC, although I think she could easily win both it could hurt her career and she deserves something better than having to compete in relality telvision. I can too actually, if she doesn't find much work, I don't see why she wouldn't want to come back but then again they made such a fuss of her exit and used Julia's theme so maybe she doesn't want to come back.

I think she'll have impressed lots of people in the acting industry and like other Eastenders actors/actresses will be given that chance to do something else and she'll succeed:).
