Plots

grant comes home

Blondes swoons 💓💓

When will they find out babes is blackmailing

Is bobby going to be revealed as the killer as sure IAN won't do the cost Saver deal and someone - possibly Kyle will buy the restaurant

Will LEE have a std

What else is there?

Or she has an unusually long gestation period :)

Yeah Pat was a brilliant character. Iirc it was Pam St Clement's choice to kill off Pat, she wanted to leave

Actually Pam St Clement wanted to take a break but they decided to kill her off. It wasn't what she wanted.

Whoever cast phil and grant did a great job, they really do look related.

Whoever cast Belinda too - it's rather uncanny how she looks like both Kat and Stacey.

One of my favourite bits of Tuesday's ep was Belinda's 'too pretty for prison' rant Really, though, how come no one spotted them smuggling those toilets next door in broad daylight?

Dd just told me Kellie Bright is pregnant well done all you early bump spotters

Oh its old news and only 12 weeks oh well

Belinda itll turn me a lesbian

Knew she had to be preg. Always so slim and has a tummy now

Grant looks like sloth

Watching the documentary about Peggy now. Talk about over the top. DTC is prone to hyperbole isn't he!! 'Peggy Mitchell is London'. No she isn't!

Pat and Dot were far more iconic characters I think. And the Beale-Fowlers are the mainstay of Enders not the Mitchells (who are a bit rubbish tbh)

I don't mind Phil and Grant but all the other Mitchells are rubbish.

I think Belinda is fantastic. it's hard for a new character, and even harder for a re-cast character, but she was perfect from Day One. I don't miss Kat at all. Belinda is more watchable!

It's been played many times just before the credits but that was the first time in 31 years I can remember 'Julia's Theme' being played before and during the credits.

Is her body just sitting over there while just sit around at Ian's?

The whole pub knows before the police have been.

Also his mum was going to take her own life, but she changes her mind so Phil goes to the pub and Grant goes home?

Whose car was Bobby taking the golf club to?

I agree that the documentary was indulgent and Dombara (Barbinic??) were off an a flight of fancy. Peggy was an important character, but as PPs have said, Dot, Pat and others have exceeded her.

I'm guessing Jane's car. He really is an odious little scrote.

I felt really sorry for Phil, making his mum a cocoa, that she was never going to drink. It was uncharacteristically sweet of him. It made me feel quite sad.

I don't think that the close was actually a Julia it sounded a bit jazzy

Was Phil putting butter in the cocoa?

missbattleaxe I didn't know that - that's a shame, and a massive trick missed for EE

Have to (respectfully!) disagree about Dot - always felt that she's given more credence than her character/storylines and actually even the acting has deserved. IMHO obv [The storylines back with Ethel were great but that must've been 20 years ago. Recently she's just been reduced to a caricature having to say "you know me I ain't one to gossip" and not much else in just about every scene she's ever in.

Ah I liked her romance with Jim and her relationship with Fatboy too.

I am not an expert by any means but was that a new theme for Peggy? I don't think I have heard it before.

Whats 'a Julia'?

not much else in just about every scene she's ever in.
That's not true she also

1. quotes the bible
2. walks in on characters having sex

Whats 'a Julia'?
The piano music they replace the eastenders theme with when someone leaves for good is called julia's Theme.

Don't forget Dot's other job of giving advice to Ian.
