mrsjay you are right he is vile and sleazy but i so would

see point proved I dont see it he has cheated on his wife many many times has had a secret wife but yet women would just drag him to bed Confused

Totally love Masood. He is a complex character, very lovely, eyes like huge pools, very human and apparently lovely in RL too.

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 13/02/2013 13:38

I know, i know mrsjay the character is a complete and utter wanker, but still i would!

I have to say i didn't realise he was a popular choice, all of my friends are Shock when i tell them, they don't understand it either!

Yes massif is a great character. Full Of warmth and kindness. His acting when Zainab left was brilliant. Zainab ruined it with her whimpering and down turned mouth. I am really glad she's gone. Her acting is terrible. Tamwar and Masood far put acted Zainab. I was waiting for the lump in throat moment but there was none.

And why do soap characters never have family accompany them to the airport? ?

NoelHeadbands · 13/02/2013 19:16

Ha I laughed at the turned down mouth Grin

It's like she thought 'what shall I do to make me look sad...sad face...sad face...hmmm....I KNOW!'

Bakingnovice · 13/02/2013 22:42

She left in a bit of a hurry. Maybe that's why here exit was appallingly bad. The two episodes were bizarre. Her and mas going over the past, cleaning the house, ending it. One minute happy in each others arms then sad. I'd rather there was a big argument. Also, the fact she's left and they've ended it at least ten times before lessened the impact of her going. They should've killed her off. Tanya's story is the same. Forever going off until one day none of viewers care any more.

LineRunner · 13/02/2013 22:55

I completely agree, Baking. No-one cares any more.

And in the actual plot and cast, the people who should care - their children, eg - don't seem to have any money worries as a result, which is mad, as these mothers had jobs ffs.

Mothers are written very badly in EE.

RedPencils · 13/02/2013 23:08

Zainab leaving was ridiculous, as was Tanya. Felt like they used the same script for both but with the names changed.
And why isn't max living in his own house? Wtf has it got to do with Cora? And while I'm here can I just say 'Kirsty, get you bloody roots done love' and Sharon, give it a rest with the off the shoulder tops. You can almost see your nipples.

MrsBucketxx · 14/02/2013 07:28

tanya is comming back though, so she hasn't left really just had a break.

kirstys hair is like a birds nest its like she can't see how bad it is.

RedPencils · 14/02/2013 08:25

Tanya's coming back? They need to dust off the 'will she/won't she/course she will' get back together with max script then.

mrsjay · 14/02/2013 08:26

Sharon, give it a rest with the off the shoulder tops. You can almost see your nipples.

I hate those tops I want to shout sharon the 80s want their clothes back

Bakingnovice · 14/02/2013 09:14

Every time Kirsty is on screen I am mesmerised by her hair and lips. I can't stop gawping. But even with these ridic flaws shf is much more attractive than Tanya. If people want to spend more time with their kids ee should just let them leave. Especially Tanya cos all she does is fight with max, go away, come back, sleep with max, fight with max.... It's so tedious.

Wish they'd do a storyline with fatboy. He's brilliant. Love that he's a funny character but often shows his sensitive and caring side.

The Tamwar story is completely ridiculous - he was Oxbridge level so he could have gone to one of his other 4 choices of university instead of moping round the house like a dead duck for 2 years. I know it's EE but I dearly would like some people to succeed from time to time and the Tamwar/Libby university thing was good. Tamwar should go off to business school or something and come back as great business man.

mrsjay · 14/02/2013 09:46

I think he failed his exams at school ( is that not right)

I love fatty boy he is so sweet, I like how he is just there I don't think he needs a big story atm there was his drunk dad last year but I like how he is just a nice running character

RedPencils · 14/02/2013 09:48

Oh right - I'd forgotten about that! Even more reason for Max to move in -its his brother's house!

drwitch · 14/02/2013 10:02

Tam could probably get a grant for his living costs and it is clearly is all their interests for him to take out the student loan. The fact that he is not will further emphasise the feeling that uni is for the rich. makes me very cross

MrsBucketxx · 14/02/2013 10:06

but he doesn't want the debt rpund his neck which is very sensible to me.

student debt is still debt, its doesn't just vanish.

drwitch · 14/02/2013 10:11

you only start paying it back once your salary reaches £21,000 and any amount that you have left over after 20 years gets written off. so its not like a mortgate or credit card debt, honestly the best way to think about it is that after uni you will have to pay a higher rate of tax

bleedingheart · 14/02/2013 10:14

I hate that Libby and Chelsea never visit. They could write it so it has happened ''off camera." Denise has been through do much and was a tigress for her children, they wouldn't just abandon her.
Best actors in the show are Max and Denise.

The Roxy/Alfie/Kat storyline is ridiculous. Hate the way Kirsty walked into a bar job when they were struggling to turn a profit!

hattymattie · 14/02/2013 10:18

mrsjay thought T had just not got his grades for Oxford - can't imagine he would flunk them entirely but I can't remember and it is EE.

Agree a Fatboy story without him being superficial would be great. I seem to remember he confessed to being quite posh and his accent was put on. So lots of background stuff to explore there.

mrsjay · 14/02/2013 10:19

I can't remember either hattie why didnt he go for another uni always baffled me Hmm
