They write Mick as a family man until one of his kids are leaving town and then they make him some cold, uncaring, unfeeling cynical mess.

Funny how Mick has pretty much pushed 2 of his kids off the Square

Exactly. The 'family man' is responsible for 2 of his kids leaving home.

I can't wait for Shirley to be the sole landlady of The Vic until June :flutter:

(I got the impression Mick will depart on screen pretty soon)

What is the meaning of the fox? i feel it has something o do with something but my mind is blank

Unless it was a hint that Denise Fox is the star of the show?

The fox is hanging around in a place it doesn't belong, much like Lee was. I liked it. I loved the episode.

Confirmed! I always knew this was true.

Yeah he pushes two out and leaves the one who really needs to piss off.

I was going to GIF something. :think:

I rather enjoyed that episode.

The fox :flutter:

That's it

Listen Farrah, **** off!

Kathy dancing?

Lostie to come sniffing for undedicated EastEnders fans that he can steal away when he finds out the show is falling apart?

stage 3

The cast are going to be under so much pressure in the run up to summer with Danny Dyer taking a break until Linda returns in June (I presume). There's only like 35 of them as it is. Take away the 'main star' and it could become very stressful.

Not when Lacey Turner is the star

I bet the next four months are all about Michelle

I am guessing we will get 3 or 4 new cast members by then

Don't count on it!

They seem to be relying on guests to fill the gap whilst certain characters are away.

SOC was announced as the producer last June and still hasn't brought in a regular character of his own besides the teens which only seem to be guests too, much like Lee's colleague was.

TBF he was getting rid of characters and he brought back Michelle and Preston is most likely permanent

All's he seems to have bloody done is get rid of characters.

It's also highly likely Michelle will leave once the actress' contract runs out in June.

Michelle's contract is only until June? :omgno:
