What exactly was Li hoping to hire Mickey out as? An escort? A rent boy? A village idiot? Up until recently he couldn't give it away - and now he's shacked up with the dodgiest bird in the East End and he'll wind up getting his collar felt on her account sometime soon.
Didn't like May's sister much - a bit smug and stuck up, praising May's courage for working in 'the ghetto', the cheeky cow. Bit daft of May to say she was pregnant, when their babybrokering deal with Dawn is hardly likely to go her way now.
Chelsea preaching morality? The girl who slept with the married Grant Mitchell within minutes of meeting him, and bonked Pyscho Sean in Tanya's salon? Pots and kettles, luv.
About time Ben confided in Peggy about Stella - no point telling in Phil, he's a troglodyte but Peggy might understand.

Quite a boring episode - I did like the bit where the potato backfired from Phil's exhaust pipe and smashed the chippy window.
May has seriously got it in for Rob and Dawn - you can hardly blame her, I suppose. Wonder if she'll report him to the cops for assaulting her in the Vic.
Stacey and Max, ffs - enough already. Hope it's really over, but I doubt it.
Dot - give the baby to Immigration so he can be re-united with his family, or adopted by someone capable. And don't let that drippy dunderhead Honey near him again - she's no Mother of the Year herself.

The potato thing made me laugh. Thats what you call karma.
May is a great character. I hope sticks around.
I don't like Dot storyline right now.

Not a great episode, just gave us more of Verity - I hope she doesn't stay. Doesn't Rob have lots of posh friends with the Walford Masons or whatever they're called? Those people look out for one another - he needn't starve or go homeless, he can call on one of his Circle to help him out.
Coping with two little babies is hard work? DUH! Billy won't be the first dad to find that out. Dot and Jim surely can't keep Tomas/George/Moses much longer - hurry up and give him back.
Why hasn't Ian decorated the house yet? It's still minging from the fire. And the real reason he doesn't want the Vic to get a late licence is that his chippy will be shut by kicking out time, and he already does sod all business in his so-called 'all night' cafe.
Libby should steer away from boys, the local ones anyway - what a bunch of losers. Gus is too old and Darren is a slippery little sod. Wait til you get to Sixth Form College, girl, find a clever one.

Right I'm only 5 eps behind now. LOL! As bad as the wedding between the Ficks was I actually enjoyed many parts of the lead up and day. I liked Kevin sneaking out with candle a la Wee Willie Winkie minus nightshirt and cap (thankfully) only to find Denise wasn't in the mood. Shirley I don't think we're meant to feel sorry for but when they showed her buying the booze and then drinking on the bench with the vows over the top I did. She's a bitch! Not meant to feel sorry for the selfish cow. But was the year warning a hint Kevin is going soon and not taking Denise with him?
The fight between Pat and Shirley was laughable mainly, I have to say, due to the size of Pat St Clement. I don't want to be mean but it looked like a leopard fighting a hippo!
Dot and the baby I'm getting so bored of. Li and her cannabis is boring too.
Stacey and Max I'm glad will come to a head soon. It's so boring.

LOL at Ian and Phil tonight. They got a few laughs out of me.
Poor old Dawn!!!!!!!! I hope the baby is ok.
Bradley and Stacey were so sweet tonight. It was like we were back in the good old days! I hope they get bcak together, not that she deserves him.

I'm all up to date now. I did laugh at the potato thing too. How twisted is Ian to blame Phil when he put it over the exhaust in the first place?
Dot and the baby is getting more tedious. Billy's pretty hopeless looking after two.
May is really barking! That last scene yesterday with Dawn shows how unhinged she's become.

Rob gets more slimy and loathsome with each episode - his 'acting' technique - sidelong glances and his mouth hanging open in a sneer a la Cliff Richard circa 1966 - is so annoying! At least the woman playing May can act, and she's meant to be OTT and mental.
I can't have been paying attention - one minute May and Rob were rowing, then it cut to Pat's house where he and Dawn were discussing running away together. The next scene of May showed her with a bloodshot eye. Did he smack her one? Did she self-inflict? Why were they at Pat's? I missed all of that!
Max's mate's flat was just hideous! Very bordellesque - talk about a tasteless batchelor pad! And Max was really nasty the way he engineered that fight with Tanya so he could storm off and bonk Stacey. And Tanya macthing up all the blonde hairs she could find!!?? Some of her own bleached strands could have matched the one on his jacket - she could have brought it in herself from the salon - she can't be much cop as a hairdresser if she doesn't know that. I did feel sorry for Carly though - I suppose Kevin will go round there and threaten to beat people up when he gets back off honeymoon.
The Ian/Phil thing is wearing a bit thin - Ian has hated Phil since he took up with Kathy years ago, it's not a recent thing. Now they've got Ben in common and they are both as childish and petty as before. Even Phil is bored with bog-washing Ian and has resorted to using the kitchen sink.

I have to stop myself calling her Mad Maya! LOL!
I noticed that. He didn't go anywhere near her eye so I reckon it's self-inflited because she's a twisted loony. Dawn was at Pat's because Carly was trying to get her interested in life insurance. Looks like they'll need it with May on the loose. LOL!
I was very disappointed Tanya didn't throw the plates at him rather than the poor sink. The stuff with the hairs was daft. Wasn't there a dark one there? Isn't Abi blonde?
I loved that with the sink mainly because I hate Ian. He's such a petty minded wazzock he deserves to drown in dirty dishwater. LOL!

Good scenes tonight between Max and Tanya - especially the stuff about Jim being horrible. I remember when he came into the show - he was a right horrible, offensive racist bastard: he hated Carol's (then) partner Alan and their mixed race child, Billy.
Then he got all soppy over Dot, and decided to make friends with Patrick and all his hatred of black people was forgotten. Until now. Max has reminded us of what he used to be like. It's good to bring it up again if that's what he's really like.
EE have been very clever here - it seems that while showing another (yawn) older married man shagging a teen minx, they have turned it into an exposure of a tired old granddad as he was when he was younger - causing yet more damage and inspiring hatred with his actions.
Even so - dunno why they've made Tanya pregnant: maybe she'll lose the baby?? And prompt Max to question his sexual wastage? Or the way he bullied Bradley into making Stacey get a termination?? Pregnancies - unwanted or otherwise( Tanya/ Honey)
or desperate for a baby (May) - it's all a bit baby-orientated at the moment.

My dad wondered if Max made it all up. There was definitely something from yesterday's ep about his 13th birthday he said to Jim who looked shameful.
I really enjoyed tonight's. Bradley and Stacey weren't really needed. I don't blame Tanya actually. Max is a scumbag but she always seems to forget she was the other woman when he was married to Bradley's mum. Very clever though him telling her not to say anything until the second trimester. He doesn't want Stacey to know. Sneaky rat!
It is a bit. That's three up the duff so I do wonder if one will have a miscarriage.

Patsy Max said something about remembering his thirteenth birthday and then 'I can still taste the stale air', and I thought he'd been locked in a cupboard or a cellar or something. It seems that Jim was a hateful man when he was younger. |

The only black man that Jim has ever befriended is Patrick. It can't be a coincidence that's he's exactly like Jim!. Lazy, workshy, prefers the pub and the bookies to his own family, and lets the woman in his life shoulder all the responsibilities. No wonder they get on so well.

Really stupid and irritating unfunny scenes with Mickey in the Minimart, and of course the obvious career move for a young man who had a bad day in a corner shop is to consider prostitution, what a load of rubbish.
Even more annoying were the scenes of all the various Mitchells and Beales getting at each other all over the place. OK, OK we geddit - Ian and Phil hate each other, don't go mad.
Please oh please let Libby's internet cyber boyfriend be Darren, and not some nonce. Internet paedophile grooming may well be a serious modern problem, but we've had enough child abuse and warpedness in EE recently.
May has obviously been watching Kate Ford in Corrie, and decided to copy her 'Oh boo hoo Charlie beats me but I love him' routine in order to bust Rob. Why? Just plain revenge? Or does she think that with Rob in the nick Dawn will hand over the baby for adoption?

One thing that really irritates me when soap characters are in chatrooms is the way they narrate what they're writing. Does anyone here give running commentary as they type? I'd sat here with my gob firmly shut and I don't read out loud what others have said either.
More than likely. But May's a tablet short of a prescription anyway. LOL!

LOL! S Libby looked dreadful last night all dolled up. The hair is better now, but the clothes and the clumpy shoes were awful. The Mitchell/Beale feud has just served to replace Kevin/Denise and Deano/Shirley all screaming at each other. There's never a peaceful episode on this programme. I suppose Mickey scrubs up quite nice, but who on earth would PAY for it? Even if Rob is innocent of hitting May - shouldn't he have been charged by the police with fraud, anyway? His bank may have sacked him and taken his company car - but I would have thought they'd prosecute over him handing out a credit card to Dawn/Jane Beale without authority. He's been a naughty boy, and he should be punished. Like getting stuck with Yawn wasn't punishment enought for anyone. How is May going to react when Tanya shows up at the surgery preggers? Every fertile female in the EastEnd is firing 'em out right, left and centre. Even Dot has a baby! No wonder May's losing her mind. |

He should have been. The bank wouldn't let an employee get away with that unless they're all on the take themselves.
LOL! Yes. Thank goodness they didn't decide to make Dot the oldest woman in the world to get preggers!

Predictable stuff in the bickering Beale/Mitchell bonding scenes - but I must say I didn't expect Ian to go all Indiana Jones, I had him down as the pampered type. But then again I didn't expect little Bobby to dress up like a sugar plum fairy - what was that all about?
I doubt very much if anyone would have survived that car crash the way it rolled and bounced, let alone little kids like Ben and Peter. Yet we're supposed to believe that they live long enough to be drowned in the next episode. It's all turning into a C&W record.
Darren is not good enough for Libby - she's clever and sensitive, and he's a chancer. It will all end in tears.

Have caught up now and agree about the crash. Wouldn't they too have been going the way they came? In which case where did the tree come from? They were only there five minutes unless Ian accidentally chopped it down looking for wood to build a shack. Ian was too smug for his own good through most of the ep. Now if only the girls had gone camping and the boys in Booty with Bobby running riot.... Agree about Darren. Just what is Max's game telling the girls about Stacey's dad dying? Patsy |
