It started out quite crappy - like why didn't they undo all the seatbelts straight away after the crash? And why did the car roll off like that? Didn't Phil put on the handbrake? Then it got really scary - the underwater stuff was quite creepy.
I bet Seve Mcfadden was fed up doing that again and again and again, while Adam Woodyatt stood there watching. I do hope that Peter makes it - Ian might be a total worm, but he doesn't deserve for his son to die. And Phil might be a total b*stard but he doesn't deserve to have Peter's death on his conscience.
The lady-bonding stuff became more lively as the booze flowed and the action moved to the Vic - and I noticed the 'psychic' moment where Lucy was 'picking up' Peter. In all this time they have never had any telepathic experiences, but EE picks this potentially tragic moment to go all Doris Stokes on us.
OK, Libby - have a bit of a snog with Darren, and then go and find someone else. Don't sleep with him just because Gus isn't available/suitable.

He did but it got knocked when Ian was pulled out. One thing which bugged me was the air in the car when it was underwater. It would have been completely submerged but I think as they explained it in the BBC3 special afterwards, because they were too young to have oxygen masks they needed that gap. I could have missed the point though or they never noticed. LOL!
I have a feeling the BBC3 thing gave it away when Martin Kemp's narration said Ian "could have" paid for it in the worst way.
Libby could be really desperate.

Phew! So glad that Peter turned out OK, but I doubt that Phil and Ian can keep up the best mates act, especially when Billy manages to bankrupt his mysteriously acquired fruit and veg stall.
So Rob did hit May, the slime. He would have decked Keef too, had the door not got in the way. Another bitter wife-beating git is not needed in Albert Square - get going, you scum.
Uh - oh, someone will find the bank statement with Darren and Libby's immoral internet earnings: maybe Rob, and he blackmails them into letting him stay? Or Dawn takes the lot so she can buy baby Burberry booties and nappies.
Mickey's deep voice was hilarious - he usually sounds like a cockney Ashley Peacock, but he sounded quite grown up when he deepened his voice.

Etiquette for Idiots or whatever the title was was quite funny, especially when Jane said it was a bit advanced for him.
May seems too smug over the black eye. It could have been a little tap and she was so disappointed it didn't bruise she punched herself. So she's been caught out by Naomi over the pills. Overacted a bit during the doof doof.
What will Keef do without his telly? Suicide? We can only hope! But surely he smells worse than Ghengis. He'll probably find the statement and buy a new one.

What a selfish a$$hole - daughter pregnant, everybody skint and he spends his 'windfall' on a new telly so he can sit and stink in front of plasma. And I like the way he is too illiterate to get a job, but he can read a bank statement and order a huge tv without any help, the bloody parasite. Dawn - you took him back, you idiot: more fool you. May is totally getting on my nerves now - what little sympathy I had for the character has gone: hurry up and get struck off you mad mare. Or at least get a partner for that bloody surgery - I've never heard of a practice in London with just one doctor. The REAL reason Phil has got post-traumatic stress disorder is not the car crash - it's because Ian kissed him, bleughh!! And he's about to get married to Smella, double bleughh! |

LOL! That's Keef all over. He has these flashes of compassion but when telly's involved he cares only about himself. How did they get it into the room?
I thought May planting drugs in Naomi's purse was very badly acted and a stupid way of writing someone out.
LMAO! Phil will be in therapy the rest of his life! Which is worse? Being kissed by Ian or sleeping with Smella? The look on Ben's face at the end. My money's still on him pushing her.

I had great hopes for Bradley as a character - one of the few genuinely nice characters ever, but he gets more Max-like and gittish with each episode. What a swine to dump Preeti like that - alright, so she's annoying and clingy but she cared about him and he crushed her. Bad boy.
Oh I so want Stacey to drop Max in it - 30 minutes! The look on his face! He deserves to suffer - but then again Tanya and the girls don't. Oh what the hell - they'll get over it: Stacey - go on, put the boot in!!
Naomi shouldn't leave - she should grass May to the Medical Council. There is such a thing as blood tests - a qualified nurse should know all about that, she should offer to do a blood test herself and then challenge May to do the same and see if she is reluctant, that might help.
Silly Squiggle - getting involved with a Miller was always going to land her in it. A conviction for flogging stolen goods isn't going to do her much good. The irony is that Keef will probably read her and Darren the riot act, while his giant 'stolen' telly broadcasts magnificently in the background.

Preferably where it hurts!
Me too. When he came into it he was so sweet. But then gradually after Max appeared his true colours emerged.
I felt sorry for Jim. He's not the same man he was back then, though still too spineless at times to stand up for himself and what's right. I want to hear his side of what Max said about the coffin.
May is totally barking. Surely she's going to get caught out. I'm wondering if Mrs Patel will have a paracetamol overdose and the poor chemist gets the blame for putting the wrong pills in.
LOL! I can very well imagine that. But he won't get off his bum or take his eyes off the screen to do it.

Oh dear. So Stacey's discovered Max is the spineless git we always knew he was. And like Sean cares. No mention of his jolly in France they sent him on during the suspension.
Preeti desperate I think she should change her name to.
Denise's face will stay that way if she keeps giving more looks. If you had a mother like that jail would be a better alternative. LOL!
May's more bonkers than ever. Her sister must be as well to not even notice the wild eyes and lunatic grin of her sibling.

Isn't it awful when you end up feeling sorry for Keef? Darren really laid into him then seemed to take great delight in all the nasty comments people left about his dad as Keef read them. Yawn and Rob. Who cares?  High time Chelsea arksed about lessons in politeness and manners. Don't blame Darren or Libby for wanting to get away from their families. Patsy |

True but the look on his face during those scenes made me want to hug him. Ugh! Imagine the fleas! Patsy Just the idea of hugging Keef makes me want to take a bath in disenfectant! What responsible hotel would take in two kids? Especially a posh one like the Ritz - even if they're loaded they're obviously underage. They probably would have ended up sleeping rough or coming back with their tails between their legs. Maybe they should both go and live with Yolande who would provide a well-balanced home life without all the drama and pressure? I hope Carly is alright with that slimy salesman - but she seems a lot tougher than Preeti, and hopefully if he gets rough with her she'll give him a good hiding. Bradley needs his own place - living with Dot and Jim and a stolen baby must be driving him nuts. Let alone his step sister's rodent. Sean's back??!! The most pointless character in recent years - just dump him: he's not fit, he's not entertaining, he's just a thorn in everyone's side and a young Keef Miller in the making. |

Be in disinfectant for the rest of your life. No wonder Rosie buggered off. Sick of the smell of Dettol. LOL!
Grotty B&B? That's probably where they would have ended up or somewhere where they wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
I'm sure Keef, with all his expert knowledge gained from watching TV (didn't you just love it when it smashed yesterday?) will argue no one is intelligent or slobby enough to be another Keef Miller.

I didn't get Chelsea's about turn. Someone else take over the script? She didn't know Warren was like that until it was too late. But after Preeti told Carly, Chelsea was like she knew all along and it was a deliberate set up.
Please don't get our hopes up Keef is leaving!
Cute gerbils but you can see what's coming.

Quite a nasty episode all round I thought - Carly goes off with a date rapist, Sean saves her but then steams in to take advantage himself. Chelsea knew that Warren wasn't much fun, but not that he was violent until Carly had already gone out with him. She did deliberately set Carly up for a bad/boring time - but not for being attacked. Hardly a good friend/step-sister. And she desreves Sean, they are both horrible.
We are led to believe that a guinea pig has been burnt alive. Good job it wasn't or there would have been an outcry. All this heavy imagery to let us know that Dot might - gasp, shock, horror - try to give up smoking. Can't wait for the 'ironic' cancer storyline. Oh hang on, they've done that. Are they setting up Dot Branning as the role model the whole country needs to follow from the Ist July? If Dot can stop, anyone can stop? Can't see it working somehow.
Darren is being taken away from the only good influence he's ever known in his life and being made to live with Keef in a flat in Streatham. Another young life ruined.

That reminds me. Wh didn't Carly go "Ouch!" when they snogged? Yeah. Dot is proof you live to a ripe old age with no health worries.  Poor Darren. Caught between a rock and a hard place. Not sure which Denise and Keef are. LOL! Patsy |

I saw this in the English Channel after we got BBC1 back but still baffled as it why it was West Midlands. Anyway they've really gone to town with Dot kicking the habit, haven't they? I know it was really, really stupid but I couldn't help laughing. Dot the nicotine sniffer! I also liked Darren trying to persuade Keef not to move to Streatham but Keef was wise to him. Don't give a toss about Stacey and Max. Pity Max is back today. Carly and Sean. Yawn! He'll be shagging Peggy next.  Patsy |

High time Dot came clean, even if it was just with Vila from Blakes 7. Silly woman's gone doolally since Pauline's demise. So Stacey's all depressed over Max so sleeps with Deano. Who cares? Keef's about turn was a bit of a let down. Can't he just go? Patsy |

Boring, boring, boring lately.
Dot running away to the Tube station with the baby was so daft. And how come Walford changes vicars so often? They hardly have the same one twice. This week's one is particularly smarmy, I thought.
SO disappointed that Keef stayed - and Streatham must be gutted.
Stacey and Deano?? And Sean and Carly/Chelsea?? The Ficks look like they might be adding a Slater annexe onto their commune. If Charlie got up close and personal with Pat then they'd form a proper dynasty. Gawd.

LOL! Vila's my favourite. He's such a wonderful coward but can be brave when he wants. Hasn't Vila been vicar since Dirty Den's latest demise? He buried Dennis too. I thought Streatham would be having the biggest street party since the Silver Jubilee. LOL! Charlie and Pat? As long as there's no pineapple rings involved. I still have visions of that. Patsy |
