Missed loads over Christmas and now totally confused. Last I saw, Lauren and Josh were off to Glasgow, Mick and Linda planning their wedding renewal.

Caught the end of tonight's ep to see Abby on life support and Martin hitting the bottle. What did I miss?

Max was going to jump off the hen Vic roof. His daughters went up to stop him but they both ended up falling off the roof. Last I know they were both critical.

Thanks :-) Lauren wasn't in yesterday's episode at all. I do know both actors are leaving the series though

Why ask for a catch up, drawing watchers in and then post a spoiler? Angry

Eh? Did you expect a threat that has "recap" in the title not the have spoilers? Esp of things that have already been shown on screen? 😂

CONTAINS SPOILERS IF YOU'VE NOT WATCHED UP TO DATE*

Mick and L renewed their vows, except they didn't really, he just said he fancied her a lot. Mick told Aidan he was out of the 'job', so Aidan planted a gun in the crisp box and then called the police. Mick gave the gun to Billy, who took it to Phil, and now Billy's in on whatever the job is going to be, except he isn't, because he, Keanu and Vincent got pissed in the pub when Aidan needed them, so Mick and Aidan shook hands, which I think means Mick's back on the job.

Abi and Lauren fell off the roof whilst Max was pratting around up there saying he was going to jump. Earlier, he'd had a bonk with Stacey (for old times' sake?) in her and Martin's living room, whilst she was dressed as an angel and supposed to be at the nativity play, where Martin was waiting for her. After the girls fell off the roof, we had some scenes where Martin didn't want to hear that she'd been unfaithful, but she felt it necessary to tell him, and also apologise. He went a bit nuts about it all, but wanted to keep the family together, whilst not being in the mood to have a make-up bonk with Stacey. Full of guilt and regret, Stacey has taken the kids and buggered off somewhere, whilst Martin sits at home drinking, with a robot.

James came to see Kaff in the kaff, and offered to leave her all his worldly goods if the two of them could get together, or to pay her for her services if that was more acceptable to her. She grabbed him by the bollocks and squeezed, which looked rather painful, and probably lead to the heart attack he suffered shortly afterwards. He was also pretty shocked to find that Fi, who had earlier told him that she believed Kaff about the rape, had broken into his office and taken all the papers (not sure exactly what papers). Anyway, he ended up dying in hospital, and Fi left him to it.

Max ended up with all the deeds to the Albert Sq properties that Willmot-Brown had had. He is trying to sell them to finance 'the best' care for Abi (he seems to have forgotten about Lauren). Fi gave Kaff the kaff back.

Karen was desperate to get £1000 before the bailiffs turned up, so after a failed scratchcard session, she and Bernadette went to see Kandice, her apparently wealthy sister. After much talk about a turkey leg incident some years back, Kandice said no, then said no again when Bernadette went to see her on her own, but then turned up in the Square saying yes, moments before the bailiffs called. Much hilarity ensued.

There was a New Years Eve party in the Vic. Donna and Robbie kissed in public. Kaff offered Tina her job back at the kaff. L is sad to be leaving the Vic. Carmel and Shakil have moved in to Kush's flat with him, which Denise found out when she and Kush fell, naked, into the living room, to find Carmel and Shakil there staring at them. Much use of cushions and chairs to hide bits.

That's about all I remember...

Things that have happened isn’t a spoiler no. But posting that both actresses leave the show is!! Do you not get that?

bonfireheart · 30/12/2017 23:06

Chillax lady I rarely watch EE but even I hadn't missed the news they were leaving.

k2p2k2tog · 31/12/2017 09:08

Apologies if you think it's a spoiler but it's not a plot line spoiler... There was lots of chat months ago about a new producer and that there would be a clear out of less popular characters, or new characters being added. Lauren and Abby both tipped to go at that point. People leave the series all the time, some will be back and some won't. Some you think are dead (Kathy Beale) and still pop up years later.

Did we ever find out what happened to Luke Wilmott-brown? Last seen being bundled into a van by Phil? Did his dad and siblings just forget he ever existed?
