Why is Lillian allowing this to happen?

FFS Lil, he's just a bit on the side. If he pisses you off just bin him. Don't start sounding so downtrodden.

Ah no sorry, next Thursday! But as we know the drama's always on a Thursday...

I like the PI story, it's a lot better than what's probably actually going to happen.

I find TA so frustrating, it bores me silly and makes me crises, but I can't stop listening to it. I'd not give this type of twaddle a moment of my time if it was on tv.

Is Josh going to become an Egg Baron like Tom the Sausage Magnate?

Did anyone notice that the actor of Paul's voice changed on weds.? Which I heard yesterday p.m. he's getting worse and worse and when Lil finally dumps him he's going to go OTT mark my words.. (hoists bosom looks over glasses). I don't mind spoilers BTW. Agree about TA Jolly

lilian is bank rolling the business. so i expect Matt to hang around until he has sorted himself an out.

maybe he will be put in position of having to rescue lilian from an abusive episode. i am going to go for a Paul keeping her prisoner. she will be grateful and then he will leave and everyone will be all like Shock at lilian.

i hope they string out the EA bit for a while because as pointed out if it happened like that in rl ppl would not get sucked in.

notice how many times they slipped 'entitled' into the Paul and son scene.

Their flat is probably going to be the scene but if Lil hasn't got her mob. phone how will Matt know where she is? OOOH It'd be an interesting way for him to meet his half brother Grin

If they SWs hadn't changed Lil's character the EA wouldn't be happening would it?

Unless,they're trying to flag that it could happen to anyone...
I was convinced Matt knew all along (but not who it was with) but I think it's gone on too long for that.

I don't know Panzee I think he DOES know but is turning a blind eye to it. We''ll see Grin

I thought that Paul was based in Somewhere Dull down south.

Why did his son come to visit him in Borsetshire? Why did the son even know the address of his dad's grubby little love nest?Confused Paul can't really moan about Celia's marriage when he has so obviously Moved On himself (quite apart from the obvious fact that what his ex gets up to is none of his business ...)

Oh I hadn't thought of that R4 ! yes Paul's house is in Luton isn't it. Why would his son visit him in his "grubby little love nest"? Grin

The concerning himself with Celia's life is all part of his 'controlling' nature. It sounds like she should've put a restraining order on him.

don't think they set where the scene was when son came to visit. i assumed it was his house.

Woah! Are you telling me that we had a scene between two non-Ambridgers in somewhere non-Borsetshire?Shock They'll be doing a Christmas Special in Benidorm next.
It's all gone to the dogs I tell ya.

Grin although is there not a precedent. i think they had a scene at Ruth's mum's house once. could be imagining it though.

Paul is in Watford when he's not at the shagnest in Felpersham. Lillian went down for a romantic weekend and was all effusive about how lovely it was but how she was uncomfortable in his house (hence the acquisition of the shagnest).

I wonder if there is going to be a money angle involved as well - is his business going down the pan (he can't be giving it his full attention given how often he's in Felpersham)?

Some kind of stuff is going to go down on Thursday though isn't it...

I'm looking forward to Thursday. Things are a bit more interesting now that Matt has turned suspicious and has taken to following Lil around. He suits an air of faint menace.

I'm rather liking Matt at the moment too, he must be building up for a big showdown Grin

Lillian is being a bit too cool though.

This is the woman wh almost came out in hives going to Felpersham races.
Now she sees Matt checking her phone, diary and stalking her and she's acting like James Bond.
