Eastenders Baby Death Storyline

Once again, no one can live happily ever after Sad

Ronnie's baby James, dies and she puts his body in Kat and Alfies son's crib, and steals their baby boy, Tommy.

Why oh why oh why do scriptwriters insist on portraying bereaved parents - mothers especially - as mad and deranged??? Maybe it's because they can't begin to imagine how awful the death of a child is, but really, whilst we are mad with grief, it is our own child that we want back, not someone else's stolen child. When are scriptwriters ever going to understand that?

Still, it'll be a riveting watch, no doubt.

Hello, yes we have been following this thread. As have many journalists - from the look of the many references in the press to the MN reaction to this storyline over the holiday period. It will be interesting to see how this all develops once the rest of the media get back to their desks tomorrow morning...

Morning all.

Please can we direct your attention to Justine's post here?

We're thinking of sending a letter to the Beeb and we'd love to collect your thoughts in the one place...
