To be devastated at tonight's EE?

[itsbrandybutterandtinseltime]

Pat. Oh Pat. Sob.

Me too. Pat was my favourite character of all time.

I didn't watch it(ok caught the end) looked like shite tbh, and I watch EE,.
my dad and mum both died of cancer, so chose not to watch it.

My mum died of cancer at home. The disease is a cunt. I cried through EE tonight but did think it was good. Would love Janine to stop being such a baggage and be nice. .

I cried a little bit at Janine and Pat making up.
The rest I was very disappointed with, they just tried to hard I think and the acting wasnt up to scratch.

The end credit music made me laugh, it was just so OTT

Very happy that Derek got a smack. I really hate that man (am aware he's not real!)

Was transfixed on the shit set.

Half a light switch and royal plate and the wallpaper didn't match.

FAIL.

Can't believe Pat is gone!

Who is Mandy? I haven't seen EE for 2.5 years, since leaving the UK, so have no clue who she is, nor Janice, although I recognise everyone else's name (except Derek who has been explained already)

UABU to mention EE accept in the TV thread.
This house is a soap free zone, I try to keep my iPod one too!

Thingumy, what do you mean?

As David realised Pat had passed on and he moved his arm and her head flopped to the other side, at that very moment my DH shot off the couch as if he'd been poked up the arse with a stick and we both dissolved into a fit.

Ruined, the moment was bloody ruined. It was a strange 70 mins all round really.

Sparkling - when was the last time you saw it? 1986?

I'm still laughing at the earlier comment

"Janine,face like a satellite dish"

Sorry, I can't remember who write it,as I'm on my iPhone.

Suckstobeme - it was Baublesandcunting
Ive said it before and I'll say it again that woman has an absolute talent for putting what you're thinking into words.

Carol McGiffin
Matthew Wright
Robbie Williams
All beautifully summed up by Ms Cunting.

I watched to see David wicks, although it was said as it was the first anniversary of dfils death, also suddenly from cancer

Thingumy, what do you mean?

Watch on iplayer....look at the wall by the door.you'll know what I mean.

Is Jack Duckworth dead? I'm a bit behind.

Have just watched it.

I've not kept up with EE - but it had me in tears at the end.

She died a bit quick, didn't she? I hardly ever watch it, but I'm sure it was only last week she was being told she had it. Do people with pancreatic cancer really die that quickly?

Had to warn certain family members not to watch it. Very close to home at the moment.
She did have the right sort of awful grey colour.
I shouldn't have watched it either.

Thingumy I am desperate now. I have become obsessed with finding this! I don't suppose you could give me an exact time so I don't have to sit through the whole bloody thing again just so I won't be upset by it all again?

No YANBU to be devastated but depends on why really!!

I had a friend over to watch it together - her mum has cancer atm and started chemo christmas eve eve and I had to say goodbye to my nan-in-law (very close to her) as she died from terminal cancer. She dies 5 hours after the family met to say goodbye.

So yes we both sobbed shed a few tears but more due to RL than the fact we won't have 'Pat' on our screens again.

Oh and we did get a grip after and had a good few hours laughter!

I agree it was being near to real life that made it poignant to watch - Pat getting up and out of bed ... going down to the kitchen, wanting to be make herself a cup of tea...clashing a bit with Bianca... relatives uncomfortable downstairs...people coming in and out...son leaning forehead on hers at the end in a bit of an uncomfortable position ...

Frigid-just skip to the bits in pats bedroom -look at the wall by the doorframe and see if you can spot half a light switch and china plate on wall.

I'm sure I wasn't tripping when watching last night...

I was also transfixed by the china plate, but didn't notice half-a-lightswitch

Face like a satellite dish . DP and I tend to break into Boosh moon quotes when ever Janine is around.

"Do people with pancreatic cancer really die that quickly?"

She had ignored the symptoms and then refused any treatment, so yes she could have gone that quickly.
