I suppose Sausage hanging round the vic all the time makes sense. Most students only have about 10 hours of actual uni time every week. Although he should be stressing about presentations and group projects!

There will inevitably be a storyline when he graduates top of his class despite never cracking a book. I'm guessing he'll start a firm in the square.

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 11/01/2017 18:25

I was convinced they were going to fall off that wall together. Though jack would have had to have been reading Humpty Dumpty then wouldn't he?

Grin Grin I love this thread!

Also, good thinking about Phil being in the pub but not allowed Nuchelle's cocktail in his home.

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 11/01/2017 18:30

Sausage will set up a solicitors/Private Investigator firm, nosey little runt.

Either that or he'll get his qualifications but decide to work on the market. Selling sausages?

So many on EE seem to get qualifications/good grades in school but don't do anything with them: Tamwar, Whitless, Masood (didn't he want to go to uni?), Bianca (went off to fashion college), Abi.

Apart from Libby - who is doing her phd, despite never working in whatever field she is studying - and Sonia, nobody seems to have bothered continuing their profession

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 11/01/2017 18:34

Oh and Denise, whose English GCSE seems to have turned her into Tom Stoppard

The80sweregreat · 11/01/2017 19:09

Tom stoppard! Love this. Maybe she can do the writing for the scripts..
Get some practice in. Humpty dumpty ! Can you imagine? I wonder if phil n sharon will fight for custody of nu baby?
Jay had a raw deal. Loads of underage pregnancies in the past, carters etc, yet Jay ends up on the register. Not fair,

CorporalNobbyNobbs · 11/01/2017 19:17

Maybe Sausage will become the new Marcus/Richie for the Mitchells???

The80sweregreat · 11/01/2017 19:25

Nah, marcus and ritchie are actually good ( at getting phil out of jail mostly)

I think the carters might need him soon though ( to cook Babes themed night dinners)

HateSummer · 11/01/2017 20:29

woman you forgot Ian and his crappycookery qualification and he's running a caff, a chippy and a burger restaurant.

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 11/01/2017 20:36

Oh yeah! I remember when Ian had a catering business (back in the day of Cindy, not the joint venture with the Massood's) and he grew that dodgy 'tache Grin

Sausage and Babe will open a restraunt to rival Beale's upmarket burger place.
The menu will be entirely sausage and roadkill. They'd be missing a trick if they didn't name the restraunt A La Carter Smile

The80sweregreat · 11/01/2017 21:03

A la carter! Genius name.
Or the cat and pigeon.
Yep, they are all fairly intelligent, but end up working for each other.
Its a mystery. Most businesses are only part time anyway, they go in and only do a few hours. Or they seem shut (like the Albert).
Its a wonder they are all not bankrupt

dingdongdigeridoo · 11/01/2017 21:36

The Pig and Sausage is a good gastropub name.

FlowerOfTheValley · 11/01/2017 23:24

Love the nicknames dropped into normal sentences.

A La Carter is a cracking name.

Can Jean come back, see Johnny and offer to cook him 'sausage surprise'

The80sweregreat · 12/01/2017 09:10

The pig and sausage, the squares first 'Gastro enterities ' pub..

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 12/01/2017 09:28

Have you noticed the residents of the square have a signature dish? Jean and her surprised sausages, Bianca and her chicken nuggets, Squawky Slater and fish fingers, Kyle with duck lasagne (which sounds the worst combination ever), Babe and whatever she scavenges. Can we expect Nuchelle to open a pie shop? She can team up with Babe and have a Sweeny Todd themed place.

HateSummer · 12/01/2017 09:31

A la Carter 😂

These names are hilarious, The Pig and Sausage gastro enterities 😆 😆

Love this thread!

The80sweregreat · 12/01/2017 10:30

Yes, they are a bit obsessed with food - considering the fruit and veg stall has been in since day one I think they should try and be a more healthy though , although Arthurrr and a few others over the years did used to' grow their own' at the allotment ( when he wasn't shagging mrs Hewitt or hiding criminals in there)
The A la carter { 'aka 'Babes') should serve up
Death by chocolate and usual sausage combos - pidgeon and cat are optional of course.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 12/01/2017 11:08

The writers have made Nuchelle so dislikeable it's hard to feel any sympathy towards her. I'm not really interested in her Big Problems. All this marching about the square, arms folded over a cardi with a pained expression and looking at her phone and sighing! It leaves me cold. Grin

The kitchen party wasn't really the social event of the year. Why would all Sausage's never seen before uni mates want to squish into a hot kitchen with Abi when they could be living it up at their student bar where there are actual seats and stuff?

Agree, poor Sharon must have been doing a poo so couldn't politely leave when Scary Shirley started ranting. She didn't flush though. Shock
She'll forgive Phil straight away no doubt. Half the women seem to be suffering from Phil blindness, they seem to see a sex God when they look at the grumpy, violent, short tempered ex alcoholic with the yellow beard. Very odd.

The80sweregreat · 12/01/2017 11:53

I am hoping Michelle does go back to Florida, or anywhere actually. There isn't any point to her - the others don't seem that bothered and her dropping in about her cleaner and large home over there didn't go down that well either. Sharon was pleased to see her, but she can always go over there to see her ( as she has done in the past) when she needs a break from Phil and his neverending women and children.
I am sure Stacey cant wait for her to be on her way, but I have a feeling she wont go ( no spoilers and not read anything but its not looking good)

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 12/01/2017 12:05

You can see the panic on Stacey's face. Grin
She must have asked her about three times now if she's going/when's her flight.

I feel a bit like that when my MIL stays. Sort of breezily asking when she's planning to go while secretly panicking that she might want to stay on for another two hellish weeks.

Optimist1 · 12/01/2017 12:14

I agree - Nuchelle's return must signify something big; as PPs have said she didn't return for funerals, weddings, etc in the past (and is apparently well-heeled enough to have been able to afford a trip) so there must be more to it than they're letting on.

tobee · 12/01/2017 12:24

I'm sad that I don't really care about anyone much on the Square anymore. Just about Stacey and Max I suppose. I kept thinking we need to give new head Johnny a few more lines then I'm sure he'll show what he can do but it's not really happening is it? He just hasn't got any screen prescence, I don't trust him with any storylines. Boo.

CorporalNobbyNobbs · 12/01/2017 12:43

Nuchelle is awful. I feel sorry for the actress getting all this criticism but they've made the character so unlike RealMichelle that it makes no sense. Feck off back to Hamerica.

HateSummer · 12/01/2017 13:07

I know why Nuchelle has left the USA and her beautiful home with cleaners and gardeners. Grin

It's obviously because Trumps the new president. I bet her dh voted for him.
