I don't understand how someone awaiting trial for murder can volunteer in a hospital?

That made me howl with laughter. You are so right 🤣🤣🤣

Who was a volunteer in the hospital ?

They said Whit was a volunteer at the hospital. I did think odd given she was hardly in tip top mental state to want to go in high stress environment every day. Plus hospitals where all closed so not sure exactly what she could have been doing. And of course waiting for my murder trial to state hardly going to get your C V top of the volunteer pile

I'd forgotten about Whitney.
(I have forgotten quite a few stories over lockdown and wasn't really watching it much a few weeks before it ended in May )

Once Sulky discovers her eldest has been helping Chan with money she will go mad no doubt. Although I agree that lawyers don't charge straight away and she could apply for legal aid too ( as mentioned on here) surely her lawyer would tell her this?
They make it up as they go along don't they?

Just catching up
It’s so weird all the camera cuts and the weird ruby and Martin hand holding behind iron fences.

It did feel more normal that Corrie where they are all filmed 2m apart so they have been clever it looked much better.

The 2m thing with EE is seeming very try hard, like they're doing too much to make it look normal that it stands out like a sore thumb. Every scene has couples holding hands in the background or kissing, yet didn't have that previously. It's like a big signpost shouting LOOK, PEOPLE ARE TOUCHING

I was trying to work out who baby Albie was, as the only babies I knew of were Kayden and Peggy, spawn of Keanu. I had to Google it to work out Sharon had changed Kaydens name. Don't blame her. Kayden is a terrible name.

Yes I thought I had forgotten the baby’s name to start with as was v odd name. I’m sorry to say but chavy in the extreme. Albie is very much like Denny. This rate the sprog will be running around the time we see him next.

Did the lawyer actually tell Chantelle that he needed the money upfront or did she just assume? She hasn't told him about the abuse so he wouldn't mention legal aid would he?

They've only had a Very Professional chat in the street after all 😂

Before lockdown gray had put a gps tracker on his car. Ben, whilst he had the car to do some work in it, used the car to go to somewhere dodgy, maybe the warehouse? and then gray accused Chantelle of going off somewhere and lying about it. She had no idea what he was talking about but then told him she’d been at the dentist to appease him. Maybe she insisted on meeting the solicitor in the park because she thought gray was tracking her again.

Good point, and he looked liked he was ok with meeting in the street. So she can’t have said met me bar or cafe as that would have looked more like I’m meeting secret fella.

When in Monday’s did shazza say about albie

Think it was at the start in the pub Ian’s mumbled something about albie but it wasnt v clear or a proper conversation

Oh no not a burn down the club... what can possible go wrong?

I feel like the storylines are moving very fast in some places. Is it because they have loads of exciting stuff planned? I don't want spoilers, it's just a personal musing.

Wasn't Honey like a mother figure to Jay at times? That really gives me the ick! Basing that on the update up thread.

I thought it was burn down insurance. How can the safe be full after selling a few coffees for months? Poor Martin hope they not killed him off

I’m at a loss with the Ruby/Martin/ bloke without a beard story - what is going on?
Someone is spending her money so she told bloke without a beard to take money from the safe? I don’t get it

I think club hasn’t had an income so she would been just about ok. But then someone MAx or Stacey maybe? Has been using her name to get credit and use her card. Hence the let’s do over he club with teenage, street wise, mini drug deal guy that doesn’t have a beard now. Though quite how he can crack a safe, who knows

I was confused about the shop though. Did they buy it? I wasn’t even aware the mum was working there never mind own it.

Do you think the beard disappeared to the same place as all the confusing gaps in the story lines?
Ian's weight
How has Sharon continued to get ronsealed?
Who is rinsing Ruby's credit card? (Clearly Martin because he is looking flash)
Why are Max, Linda and Denise all friends?

Mik needs to get a stall in the market to sell oldie worldly good old east end goods/tat. Wasting all their profit from pub sale on rent and living off min wage will not last very long.

Surely Sharon could have finally had a midlife crisis post divorce, Denny, and new baby. New start new baby. Surely at 50? She could tone down the orange face and mascara in her grief? Least behind the bar we not have to see her tottering on 5inch heels.

I'm almost certain that police officers have to make a declaration about anyone in their extended family/relationships who's got a criminal record. Ben obviously taking big risks with his career there. (Or scriptwriters turning a blind eye to stuff like that).
