I think perosnally if anyone under 16 sent those kind of photos to me I'd go straight to the police.

I'd want them to look through the phone / message and see it was an unpromted act.

BreconBeBuggered · 28/04/2016 10:43

WildHeart, that's exactly what I was wondering about unsolicited images. EastEnders clearly isn't the finest guide to the law, but it's a scary prospect nonetheless.

MagpieCursedTea · 28/04/2016 10:43

I think Jay was encouraging her to send the photos, not as in pressuring her but saying he liked them etc. So the messages would show that he replied/interacted with her. If Star was just sending photos and he didn't reply and reported them I think it would be different.

SoupDragon · 28/04/2016 10:57

I think the problem has come about because Star's mother wants to be seen to be caring about her daughter rather than actually caring. If she actually cared, she would have had a long heart to heart with her daughter rather than turning up in the Vic with her bully boys whilst her daughter looked absolutely distraught about what her mother was doing.

Magpie why would he have deleted and reported the messages when he was unaware she was underage?

We know he wouldn't have entertained a relationship if he had been aware from his reaction when Louise tried to kiss him.

imwithspud · 28/04/2016 11:31

I think you've hit the nail on the head Soup. No one has asked Star how she feels, the mum has taken what's happened and ran with it in a bid to look like a good mum.

FuckyMcFuckFace · 28/04/2016 11:41

What's annoying me is everyone labelling Jay a paedophile when actually a paedophile is someone who attracted to pre pubescent children, someone who attracted to teens who are underage have a different definition (which I just looked up and can't remember).

SheHasAWildHeart · 28/04/2016 11:49

Random thought but why was Paul cleaning the graffiti with just a sponge n washing up liquid?! Bless him, wonder how long it is before Robot Ben leaves him for Robot Johnny?

SoupDragon · 28/04/2016 12:46

I think the paedophile label is true to life though.

harverina · 28/04/2016 13:00

In real life star would probably have been interviewed by police and social work formally. It's all a bit of a joke actually

NuggetofPurestGreen · 28/04/2016 13:10

Hebephilia innit.

SheHasAWildHeart · 28/04/2016 13:50

Has anyone else seen this article on how much extras paid on EastEnders [[http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/secret-behind-coronation-street-eastenders-7839202#rlabs=1%20rt$category%20p$10]]?

SheHasAWildHeart · 28/04/2016 13:51

Link fail- it should be here

Jasonandyawegunorts · 28/04/2016 13:55

So Tracey (reportedly) gets £84 per filming day and £50 extra when they give her a line.

Not bad money, especially when you have lots of pub scenes.

MagpieCursedTea · 28/04/2016 14:05

Looki what do you mean? I was just explaining why someone being sent unsolicited photos wouldn't be in the same trouble Jay is in.

Blondeshavemorefun · 28/04/2016 14:08

Poor jay tho noticed Louise didn't help the situation by crying and snuggling into honey

BEX and louise knew her age yet said nothing

If jay has asked her age and she said 16/17 so lies would jay still be in trouble?

He didn't ask her but assumed

Louise knew her age yet said nothing

Linzi Obv knew she was 14 but said nothing

I feel jay was badly treated - 5yrs on sex offender record for a pic???

Louise only knew on her first day at school when she had the fight with Star so pretty much at the same time as Jay.

imwithspud · 28/04/2016 14:41

I wonder if Tracy will ever become a 'main' character.

Jasonandyawegunorts · 28/04/2016 14:48

after 31 years on the show? Grin

harverina · 28/04/2016 15:10

I thought she was going to be getting a bit more coverage at the darts tournament but then babe came and stole her place!!

She must know all the actors really well after so much time on the show.

imwithspud · 28/04/2016 15:28

Grin I'm sure she must be happy in the role that she plays otherwise she wouldn't have stuck around for so long.

Jasonandyawegunorts · 28/04/2016 15:34

Is it ever explained where she lives?

imwithspud · 28/04/2016 15:56

Don't think so. I'd imagine if she ever got a bigger role they would magic her an apartment somewhere on the square.

MagpieCursedTea · 28/04/2016 16:00

I really wanted Tracey to be the highest paid cast member. Maybe she is and she has to pretend she gets less so as not to offend the big egos? Grin

JellyBaby26 · 28/04/2016 18:29

Probably lives with shrimpy?
