Eastenders 2022

[Rita]

Also, poor Stacey. How devastating must it be to watch someone so close to you unravel like that, and not be able to do anything.

 

[Nancy]

BIG SPOILER

Spoiler: STORYLINE SPOILER

Lewis will rape Ben in an upcoming storyline

 

[COB]

Oh god I mean I was sort of expecting

Spoiler

some sort of affair with either Ben or Callum once they introduced a third gay man on the square, but not THAT

 

[supermassive]

Boring, why not have a gritty realistic storyline where Ben and Callum are in an open relationship.

 

[Inner Smile]

Really not happy about it being Ben, i'd like to see less of the character. I hope Kathy is a big part of this (and i'm sure she will be given her past) she needs something proper to do

 

[Inner Smile]

I much preferred Harry Reid as Ben, he wasn't a great actor but I found the character more likeable then. He's so arrogant now

 

[COB]

I wonder how long this Jean storyline will go on for, it's starting to become quite uncomfortable viewing (I know that's the POINT but you know what I mean )

 

[Ellie]

Jean looks very Miss Havisham there.

 

[COB]

Oh Jean not ketchup on your wedding dress

 

[Ellie]

It’s like that scene in IT

 

[COB]

Oh god at all of that, the final scene really got me.

 

[Star]

Oh god, what an episode!

So many hhhhmmmph moments though, like how did she get on the rides with no money? Why didn't Stacey call Martin as soon as she knew she was in the hall of mirrors? Why didn't they even call the police to help?

But aside from that, it was heartbreakingly beautifully done When she sees the ambulance crew and realises her fate

It's also a bit sad that Stacey knew for ages her mum wasn't well, but no one listened to her and she couldn't get help. It must be like that for other people out there too.

 

[Star]

Oh and Martin and Stacey are just so good together.

 

[Inner Smile]

It all got too ridiculous for me

 

[Inner Smile]

Can you believe it's been nearly 21 years?


The DUBIOUS line delivery of
..You're NOT? :O
So...
...WHO IS?

is just

Its INNER SMILE playing in this clip! They got it so right

The way Peggy turns around is hilarious

 

[COB]

A classic bit of EastEnders variable-volume conversation in the scene with the football coach in the Vic tonight

 

[Ellie]

Catching up from last night. Oh Janine

 

[Inner Smile]

Quite a rubbish week on the square, what was that ending all about with Scarlett? She only had to walk back to Kat's lol

 

[Inner Smile]

I feel for Linda, she WILL get him back

 

[COB]

The Scarlett stuff is weird, I can only assume we're getting Janine just immediately reverting to being a SHIT MUM

 

[Inner Smile]

That decor at Phil's house is awful Can't blame Scarlett for shooting off

 

[Ellie]

What exactly is Ryan’s role in Scarlett’s upbringing? And with Whitney being her paternal aunt, is that ever even acknowledged?

 

[Inner Smile]

Scarlett is Michael's daughter

 

[Ellie]

Scarlett is Michael's daughter

Oh shit, I forgot. It’s Lily who is Ryan’s daughter then, isn’t it?

 

[Inner Smile]

Yes, beautiful Ryan x

 

[COB]

Yeah, it's definitely a bit odd that Lily and Whitney barely seem to interact!

 

[COB]

Ryan and Janine had quite the turbulent relationship too, didn't they? I'm surprised that hasn't been brought up much/at all since she returned.

 

[Inner Smile]

The actor slept with someone from the shop my mum worked in lol

 

[Inner Smile]

AND she was 16

 

[Ellie]

Who exactly ARE Kim’s followers?

 

[Ellie]

“I’m gonna have to watch Eurovision through a shop window”

 

[Ellie]

A whole scene inserted just to comment on Eurovision They usually only reserve those for massive celebrity deaths or elections.

 

[Nancy]

And there's the Janine we've all been waiting for!

 

[Star]

 

[COB]

Oh she was fab tonight, nothing like a bit of scheming and chicanery It can't be sustainable though, surely Nancy will find out pretty quickly that she didn't buy that business...

 

[Nancy]

Yeah, it wasn't Janine's best thought out scheme

 

[Ellie]

GO LINDA!

 

[COB]

VERY here for Linda versus Janine

 

[Star]

Nice

 

[Star]

Also won't take long for Linda to put two and two together once Nancy's thing falls apart
