New thread for Eastenders gossipers! Who will come back from the dead next?
Will the Bobby storyline ever end?
Will Claudette ever decide on an accent?

I think Shabnam meant Jade. I'm trying to figure out now whether Stacey calls Mo nan or Mo.

MrsJayy · 07/01/2016 09:37

Nan, its something to do with her being part of thefahhmily you know how it goes random relativemoves in Grin

SymphonyofShadows · 07/01/2016 09:39

I wasn't paying attention properly and thought she meant Stacey's baby, but then they all went to see Jade.

LemonBreeland · 07/01/2016 09:44

I agree pyjama she is not a nice person at all. She is horribly rude to everybody, even when she isn't having a breakdown. Her screwed up face irritates me too.

Eminybob · 07/01/2016 10:47

I think we were supposed to think that Shabs meant Arthur, and I think Kush and his mum thought that too, as they gave each other a look when Shabs stormed out.

I was wondering why Massood was just sat there with no look of surprise on his face at all, then realised he must have been thinking about Jade, and then Shabs stormed into the vic and it all made sense!

MissBattleaxe · 07/01/2016 13:19

But Stacey told Shabs Arthur wasn't Kush's and Shabs was all relived so she must have meant Jade.

LemonBreeland · 07/01/2016 13:22

I think Shabnam is going to realise soon that Stacey was lying/confused as she thinks Arthur is Gods son. There is no hope for Shabnam and Kush's marriage.

MrsJayy · 07/01/2016 13:25

As soon as everybody finds out stacy is ill shabs will twig again

unimaginativename13 · 07/01/2016 13:29

Martin isn't the father tho as that's why she's was hiding the scans as she was further along that what she thought.

I still don't get how Martin could be at the hospital and not once did anyone mention in front of him the gestation of the baby.

MrsJayy · 07/01/2016 13:36

Martin just doesnt want to notice anything he is a tool

MissBattleaxe · 07/01/2016 13:40

I agree that Stacey is unpleasant, even when she's on her meds, I don't know why Martin hangs in there, she treats him like shit on her shoe.

SheHasAWildHeart · 07/01/2016 14:24

Stacey could have pretended she had a one night stand and brought the baby up as a single mum but instead she manipulated Martin into becoming her boyfriend and saying it was his baby. That is unforgivable. And then she treats him like a nuisance. Shouldn't have trapped him then should you Stacey?!
My DD made me laugh when the nun said she had something to tell Kat "oh mum don't tell me her dad's got a secret family she didn't know about" "No darling this ones got a son she didn't know about."
:/

unimaginativename13 · 07/01/2016 14:28

Is that what she did? Didn't she find out she was pregnant while with Martin?

MrsJayy · 07/01/2016 14:31

Yeah she found out when she was with Martin although she got with Martin to get over Kush

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/01/2016 16:03

just watched last nights, thank god for sky planner that picks it up when isnt meant to be on ......

shabs def said child, not baby

yes its awful the way they heap it all on shabs, tho they did suggest donor eggs/surrogacy .... but can understand she wants jade

Stacey is seriously becoming nutty and amazed no one else can see it

poor kat, rubbish acting by mo and charlies hand on heart was very dramatic .......

Redcrayons · 07/01/2016 16:52

Wish this secret baby story would go away, is there anyone who wants a few more months of Kat shrieking. I think she's had her day on EE. There's just nothing left for her to do anymore. We've seen all this before.

Agree Stacey is unpleasant character, even when she's on her meds. She treated Martin like shit. shenwas quite sweet with Shabnam but that's all going to crap too.

EE is a bit depressing at the moment, even more than usual

Goingtobeawesome · 07/01/2016 16:53

I don't think the genuine father of Stacey's baby has been mentioned yet.

I didn't mind Kat's acting, I thought she was good.
Mo and Charlie on the other hand......

MagpieCursedTea · 07/01/2016 17:42

So with there being two episodes in tonight, I'm trying to decide if I should watch one today and save one for tomorrow (to save me from the torture that is three whole days without EE) or if I should watch both tonight so I can read and post on the thread afterwards. It's a tough choice!

Yes Stacey is horrible. All she does is sleep with men who are attached abd very close to her best friends/family. She's always shrieking and moaning abd lashing it. Just like Shabnam. I wish shabs would just for once not lash out at family when she is happy/sad/distraught.

I'm skipping this week. Hate this story, hate shrieky kat, wild eyed Stacey, gurning shabs and the whole entangled sack of shit that is Stacey/kush/shabs/kat/babies yadda yadda....

MissBattleaxe · 07/01/2016 17:58

EE is full of ridiculously far fetched storylines at the moment

YY. I've head of people not knowing they were fathers, but never of someone not knowing they were a mother. It's the kind of storyline that belongs on Dallas in the 80s. They are asking a big favour of the viewers to go along with such an tenuous unbelievable story. Especially as it comes so close to Stacey finding she has a brother she didn't know about. Whatever next?

PatSharpIsMyBoyfriend · 07/01/2016 18:13

It seems so unbelievable now, I know it's a soap but we're undergoing a severe suspension of reality at the moment.

Stacey is unfortunately experiencing postpartum psychosis, and now has to deal with a whole has family she didn't know about, a bigamist father who died when she was a child (thanks to her psychopathic brother Sean) and a half brother, who was formerly her half sister. On top of that, she has been lying about the paternity of her child. If my memory is correct she also attempted to hide the father of her previous child, had a husband (fiancé?) who died jumping from a building trying to honour her name, had a long term affair with his father prior to this, was raped by a psychopath and killed said rapist, leading to a brief stint in prison after absconding from the country to evade arrest.

Shabnam has had unprotected sex (or just sex?) on 2 occasions leading to pregnancies. Firstly with a man who is now known to be a rapist, she abandoned that child and it was put into foster care, now her daughter is living doors away being raised by said rapists family. Her next one night stand, ended with a tragic stillbirth. Now she has been told that due to extremely rare complications she will never be able to have children naturally again. On top of that, her best friend had a baby with her now husband, unfortunately that best friend is currently suffering with severe mental health issues.

Kat was abused by her uncle as a girl, which resulted in a pregnancy. That child was then raised as her sister. Then she had a child with the cousin of her on/off husband. After numerous ups and downs with her relationship, including finding out that her on/off husband was infertile, she miraculously conceived twins. Shortly after she suffered severe burns caused by her stupid husbands attempts to get them out of poverty. Luckily however, they won the lottery, but this happiness has been short lived, as her husband has a possible brain tumour, and she has just found out that she gave birth to twins, and not one child as she originally thought.

unimaginativename13 · 07/01/2016 18:45

Also two families where they brought up a child as a brother/sister not son/daughter ..... Surely that storyline has been done to death

MissBattleaxe · 07/01/2016 19:02

Yes PatSharp. good post. It looks even more ludicrous now its written down like that.

I don't remember old storylines ever reverting to sensationalism like this, it was more charcter driven.
