So I was right. Abby is brain dead. What will happen to baby? Will they switch off machine?

Leave her in a coma for 13w and cs

or cs now and then turn off machine

Would TANYA seriously take off when both daughters in hospital

Why hasn’t lauren mentioned josh

Why havnt we seen Luke tied up

Why did fi give cafe to Kathy for £1 yet the pub for £150k

Obv the heist was for £150 so mick will do that

And if they sold for £150 what did they do with he other £100k after dog op and paying credit cards off and roof leak

Will JANE be back soon?

And bobby new head

Sharon said Michelle was in Australia seeing vicky.
She works in retail, you cant have time off that easily at christmas. But hey ho.
Maybe Tanya has gone there too?

iknowimcoming · 29/12/2017 21:29

I assumed that max dropping all the deeds at the end signified that Abbie had diedSad

rainbowduck · 29/12/2017 21:31

I thought it meant that he had realised his daughter was going to die.

I can't believe Tanya not being around.
And was watching Kim as well... surely she can't keep this up?

QueenAmongstMen · 29/12/2017 21:40

I assumed that max dropping all the deeds at the end signified that Abbie had died

Maybe? It may have been that she had some kind of post-Caesarian complication? A bleed? A cardiac arrest? Maybe Max was told that attempting a resuscitation was pointless and so Abbie was allowed to die.

RJnomore1 · 29/12/2017 21:42

Ooh I lost you all. I thought the other thread had gone quiet.

What did max drop at the end??

youarenotkiddingme · 29/12/2017 21:42

I thought it was him accepting what the doctor said. He was selling the deeds to get her private treatment and a cure Sad

BadHairDay0 · 29/12/2017 21:42

Oh God, yes you're right! Her best mates have completely forgotten her!

RJnomore1 · 29/12/2017 21:46

Ahhh

I missed some things

It was all a bit confusing?

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 29/12/2017 21:47

Just reporting for duty.

QueenAmongstMen · 29/12/2017 21:49

So we all know that Abbie is going to die so can we assume Lauren won't be killed off and will just happily go to Glasgow?

buddhasbelly · 29/12/2017 21:51

Yes the max bit at the end meant that he's accepted that there is nothing they can do for Abbie so he just let go of all the papers/money that he thought he could raise to get her treatment

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 29/12/2017 21:52

It's looking that way. Lauren gets to come back when Hollywood doesn't work out Grin

LineysRunner · 29/12/2017 21:55

It's all over the place, isn't it?

rainbowduck · 29/12/2017 22:11

It's appalling. I was so excited on Christmas Day. I am also struggling how with the speed of how they have explained away a week. Bloody shite. Like when Steven died and no one mentioned it...

Writers need their heads banging together

ProseccoMamam · 29/12/2017 22:16

I hope Lauren goes to Glasgow with josh, Louis and abbeys baby. If they kill her off it will be a huge waste, she's a brilliant actress and they should leave her part open for a return.

Abby on the other hand is a crap actress so they've done the right thing killing her off. Her voice, the faces she pulls, everything about her makes me itchConfused

Akire · 29/12/2017 22:17

Yes all her flat mates, friends and ex’s not only out at pub but playing stupid games with fake blood and snogging and good old eastenders knees up????!!!! Surely least got drunk at home. It was like serious lack of story line. At very least the baby would be small enough to worry about it. Tanya and Lauren would also been at her bedside. Lauren may had a broken hip or whatever but surely in cases like this they wheel her bed in so she could sit with family? Not like she’s getting 1-1 care she’s all alone.

nancy75 · 29/12/2017 22:19

I think Max is going to want to bring up the baby - like he hasn’t buggered child rearing up enough already!

Akire · 29/12/2017 22:31

Tanya would never leave Lauren cope on her own, they could at least have her just getting a coffee in every scene. There no way Tanya let max have baby after what he’s done. How’s that goingvexplsin to your teenage granddaughter in 14y time. Yes I caused your mum and father to die!

Why didn’t Kush move into Denise’s? It’s only a two bed so mum in spare room and brother on sofa?

FlashTheSloth · 29/12/2017 22:42

EE has got so stupid! It has all these big storylines, yet jumps all over the place and makes them unrealistic. The bit where the cliffhanger was the doctor telling Max and Tanya to sit downm then next episode is Stacey in the kitchen. Bloody stupid. No one seems bothered about Lauren, Tanya wouldn't have left, the Aiden storyline is utter shite, Abi's flatmates would surely be a bit more bothered, them all pissing about it the pub whilst she is brain dead is unbelievably stupid!

nancy75 · 29/12/2017 23:06

They need to concentrate on one big story at a time, they start all this stuff but never finish half of it.
Where’s Luke?
Is JWB dead?
Is Abi dead?
Has Fi gone for good?
Where did Masood come from & where has he gone?
Where’s Jane?
What is going on with the Vic & money?
Who on earth is looking after all the kids?!?
I’m sure there are a million other unanswered questions

Akire · 29/12/2017 23:07

Oh and josh tidying up the office ??? He would be at bedside. Fi stitched up everything or left other people manage selling of deeds from ill gotten gains then why would josh need to help? They employed hundreds of poeple!

Karen and Spam were good in the bar- please leave carters!! The big job is going to be a disaster. Phil will get off, billy will of course get caught and honey can fall into jacks arms. Mik bound to be arrested and or have to do midnight flip to Spain.
Mick was doinbfar to much of his acting state tonight ( stare into distence and try not to fart face)

TeaAndToast85 · 29/12/2017 23:12

Ever since I saw Martin with that cabbage earlier I've really fancied some. Love a bit of cabbage.

Btw, candice is the worst actor, possibly ever

Akire · 29/12/2017 23:13

Don’t get why Vincent Kim Denise are always at Vic when they OWN A BAR!

Yes yes all invisible kids and no mention babysitters on NYE.

Any guesses on the job? There’s 5 plus Aiden so has be least £150k each. What kind of job nets half million of something they can get rid of on black market or cash?? Still think Aiden is ploy by WB to make sure they all go down.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 29/12/2017 23:38

Tanya wins worst mum award for not bothering to hang around at her daughters bedside but taking plenty of time to shout at everyone on Christmas Day. I don't really get the Tanya love.

Lauren and Abbie have obviously made no impression on the rest of the square, Abbie's great flat mates, two of which are her ex boyfriends, are too busy mucking around with ketchup and snogging Robbie to visit her bedside, oh even look remotely sad, it's like Roxy all over again.

People who like to stand on top of roofs looking moody; Batman, James Bond, Captain Jack Harkness and Mock Carter.

And 2017 bows out to Max Brannings bald head moodily lit by fireworks.

hotwaterbottler · 29/12/2017 23:48

Good to see popping into see his girlfriend who has fallen off a roof and had major surgery is on Josh's to do list, just after he sorts through some paperwork in an office he quit a few weeks back of course.

Another thing is the whole fowler household heard that max killed Steven. Has no one gone and told the police? Surely Ian would have been at the station in a heartbeat.

The script writing is so hot and cold. The Xmas day double episodes were great but this week the script has been shockingly poor.
