EastEnders: the SPOILERS thread!

But will they play, or will they be shuffled to Auntie Lynn's because they are 'too young' for the funeral (they're 12!)

And will we ever get a reason why Auntie Lynn, so fond of Zoe, does not come to the funeral? They have forgotten the existence of LM and Belinda but how will they justify no Lynn?

Zoe did ask Max for help and he told her she was drunk and to leave him alone ( and to not tell anyone he was with Linda )
Kat should have taken her to an and e hours previously, but they wanted her killed off.
It’s the funeral next week , Bert n Ernie are polishing up the recorders if Kat lets them play !

When Cindy discovers that ‘ cheap pink lipstick’ woman is linda she will actually explode. Fire will come out of her head and all hell will break lose! She’ll be clip clopping around in such a temper closely followed by Kat no doubt thinking that he did actually kill off Zoe ! He is on borrowed time and money woes too. Not good with a dodgy heart !

One thing that made me laugh out loud

Denzel being like 'he asked for cash'

And Jack saying, In all seriousness, 'well, we're dealing with a pro here 🤔'

😄

Is a dick pic really that big a deal in this day and age? 🙄

😆
love it.
No ..more.. pauses .. ok ?

I really want Yolande to get a gun from somewhere, break the fourth wall and start shouting "praise the Lord can you all please stop with the big pauses in between words and can we have some new writers while we're at it" cats bum mouth "an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind". The End.

The way it’s going it may as well be Yolande , I said it before , but it would be very Tarantino if she started on people with a big gun!

You mean told Jack?

Agreed. But I suppose it's adding another motive to the pile.

It was a bit confusing with Max but I agree he may have been going to tell Jack about Amy, and changed his mind because of Cindy. But he needs Amy's money so I am not sure he would ever have told Max until the money was in his hands!

I thought the pp who suggested Yolande was joking 😳

I think Max was intending to tell Jack at first as he ran quickly into the pun to find him. But then Cindy gave him a death stare and he changed his mind, coward that he is 🤦‍♀️

Yolande, good choice, it would be a total surprise 😉

70s it was Max who saw her get into the car. I assume he will tell J&J next week because they run off looking for her.

Max is keeping quiet because he wants the 50 k for Cindy from Amy’s trust fund! Needs to keep her onside.
He owes 10 to the tax office , so it’s a rum do all round financially.
Maybe Craig tries to kidnap Ethan and Jimmy ?

Why do you think Yolande ?Interesting one to pick , she’s more likely to try and forgive or bring people together! Unless it’s something to do with the twins, but she hasn’t that much to do with them really.
Patrick seems chilled on NYD and spoke to Oscar.
The Truman comment was intriguing, I wonder which one he is with by then ?

When I watched on catchup ( as I do on a Thursday) either Max or Phil saw Amy going off and getting into Craigs car .
I think it was Max but it was after a conversation about the Trust Fund .

Then if they said to Jack&Jack "I saw your Amy getting into that Craig's car , I didn't know they were pally "

Jack&Jack being the great detective that he is would put the pieces together and think "Oh.... that's why she's being so mardy . He's got his grubby mitts on her and turning her head , the vicious little prevert . He's got previous for offences /alligations against young women , now he's targeting Ames. He did the blackmail , not her "

But no-one will say ought .And Jack&Jack won't see what's right in front of him.
Cannot find his bum with both hands

Cannot take credit for the clip Shelling it was lazymum

My money's still on Yolande.

I think you might be😆

All this is in the service of the flash forward, to give Kat a reason to hate Max to create tension about who is threatening Lauren and Oscar. (If it isn't Cindy or Ravi, I want my money back.😆)

I've been pondering the ridiculous Max/Zoe situation again (I know, I need to get a life). Maybe the writers intended to show Zoe asking Max for help in a desperate, confused, emotional way, so we were in no doubt that she really needed it, but Michelle Ryan's acting was so poor it didn't have the intended impact.

Though I might be giving the writers too much credit there 😄

Thank you for that clip 70s. And that is why I hated Max in those days, the self pitying self destructiveness. He left because he had just been turned down by Linda who went back to Mick. Little Abi was gorgeous, that look she gave him! I do remember her trundling the pink suitcase.

I think Cora announced (during her return when she met Muscles) that Abi wanted to be called AJ now. Being Abi Junior in memory of dead mum is a bit much for a kid!

Abi had her life support switched off Jan 2018 and baby Abi must've been born early 2018 , so she'd be 8 and a half -ish.

Will she come back to the Square ?
Nice child or utter feral?

That's the one!
When Rainie opens the door and the little girl is waiting there , with her pink suitacase .

Did Max do this for Abi's benefit or Rainie's? Or his own. He probably didn't want the responsibility of a toddler .
And she was Abi back then. When did she get the God awful "AJ" ?

Thanks for that clip @lazymum99

Baby Abby showed more acting skills in those 3 minutes than the Hawkins clan and the J Twins put together!

How old would AJ be now?
