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:

Lauren is one of my favourite characters now

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...

Is Billie dead?

Who's Billie?

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

Yeah from drinking too much I think.

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

Yes.

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

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

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

This week

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

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

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.

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

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

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...

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

Maternity Leave:).

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....

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

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

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

:sad:

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

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