I wonder if Evelyn matched her dress to the wallpaper on purpose tonight.

Poetryinaction · 18/05/2020 22:41

The doctor was unhelpful.
Lianne - what's he got?
Doc - a disease
Lianne - what is it?
Doc - I'm not telling you. But don't google. Ask me anything.
Lianne - huh?
She just did ask and you wouldn't tell her!

Honeyroar · 18/05/2020 22:49

I was as baffled as Leanne!

But what’s happening with Geoff and Yasmeen??!!

eggandonion · 18/05/2020 23:24

Some of the editing seems strange, I wonder if they have done some cut and paste stuff for the three a week episodes?

ChandlerIsTheBestFriend · 19/05/2020 00:00

Agree doctor was useless! Poor Leanne and Steve!!

Cheeeeislifenow · 19/05/2020 00:15

That doctor was so bad...
Are they sitting Nick up for a jealousy story line or something, Leanne and Steve get closer?
I think David's story line of him being reckless is ridiculous. How many more times is he going to fail those children of his? I like the character but wish they would allow him a happy story line, he is good dad and I don't believe he would risk them going through more grief and pain like that.
Was also really annoyed (irrationally) to see Simon, I hate that kid (irrationally) 😀

ChandlerIsTheBestFriend · 19/05/2020 00:17

Agree about David. I love David’s character. They need to stop making him a tortured soul and just let him be happy running his barber shop.

PorpentiaScamander · 19/05/2020 00:40

David is lovely. Or at least he can be. He switches from lovely involved dad to reckless waste of space every week.

If its mitichondrial does that mean it has to have come from Leannes side? Only because she was so quick to point out that her family don't have any genetic illnesses (and I dont like her). I like Steve. When he isnt pulling weird faces. Fuck knows why him and Tracey are together.

If plastic Liz got that distraught telling some teens that Oliver (who they generally never mention) is poorly, I hope she never has to tell them anything worse. Surely "unfortunately Oliver is very poorly at the moment and the drs don't know what's wrong with him. But let's stay positive,. Hes in the best place" would suffice?
I had to tell my DC that their cousins were dead. That was bloody hard. And nothing in comparison to telling children that a sibling or parent has died I'm sure.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 19/05/2020 23:56

The builder family need to go, actually scrap that, the eldest son has potential, and Agi was good in doctors so I will extend her probationary period, the gay son is so wooden it’s cringe to watch and the dads booming voice and bad acting are awful, it just goes to show how uninterested I am, I can’t even remember their names. As for Nina she can’t act either but the character has potential, though I do worry she is going to go up in flames any minute behind the cafe counter, all that fabric and naked flames don’t mix.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 19/05/2020 23:58

Didn’t Eileen have another love interest, a fireman with a wife who had Alzheimer’s? IIRC didn’t he have the unfortunate nick name on mumsnet, something like trousersmell?? Or did I dream that?

InvisibleWomenMustBeRead · 20/05/2020 01:45

Paul! What happened to him actually?

ChandlerIsTheBestFriend · 20/05/2020 02:07

I can’t remember why he left. Was it something to do with him making a racist comment in the pub to Lloyd?

thenightsky · 20/05/2020 06:57

Wasn't she going to move away with him, but changed her mind at the last minute?

Roussette · 20/05/2020 07:38

Yes, I remember that love interest she had. There's been quite a few!

MonkeyToesOfDoom · 20/05/2020 08:39

Was it something to do with him making a racist comment in the pub to Lloyd?

Paul the fireman was playing darts with someone, Steve maybe?
He said,
"Come on, play the white man"
And Lloyd overheard him. He then got labelled a racist and life on the street got so bad he had to leave. I remember it because I've heard the expression a few times in real life.

eggandonion · 20/05/2020 09:25

When big Jim and the fake wee girl turned up he had a walking stick so he did. Did he have a genetic condition or was that made up, or did I imagine that episode? Also was there any reason why baby Ruari didn't survive?
Poor wee Oliver though, mostly forgotten about and now not well.

CoolShoeshine · 20/05/2020 10:46

Do we know anything about Leanne's real mum? I can’t recall her ever having been in the programme?

CoolShoeshine · 20/05/2020 10:51

Ignore what I’ve just posted, I’ve remembered that Leanne’s mum was Stella (like she would really have been with Les Battersby!)
I liked the family dynamic between Stella, Leanne, Eva, Toyah and whatever Stella’s mum was called. Wish they would return to the show.

ellenanora5 · 20/05/2020 11:00

Aye he did indeedeggandonion so he did, said he had some condition that was hereditary and Steve had to get tested, I think Amy did too, I thought that would have been mentioned in regards to Oliver, although maybe it was a couple of years ago, I was thinking about the fake daughter story the other day and how awful it was.

When are they getting back to Yasmeen and Geoff, I hope we don't have to wait until normality resumes.

PorpentiaScamander · 20/05/2020 11:28

Steve did mention his dad's condition and the fact he didn't have it. The nurse said it was unlikely.

eggandonion · 20/05/2020 11:40

I use this thread to catch up on things I have zoned out of. I never zoned out when Big Jim was on so I didn't. He emphasised everything.
I loved the way he didn't shorten names, he was a great character so he was. I wish Andy would return with a new head if necessary. Does he have a family wherever he is, maybe Spain?

PoloNeckKnickers · 20/05/2020 15:33

I used to like that about Jim too, eggandonion. It was always Steven, Andrew and Eluzabeth. I also used to love it when Steve and Andy did his accent.

eggandonion · 20/05/2020 15:34

Bring Back Jim - or James even - with te right head though.

PoloNeckKnickers · 20/05/2020 15:44

If Jim came back, would he recognise Liz?

Happygirl79 · 20/05/2020 15:53

Tbe writers really do need to give their heads a shake.
So fed up of either police or ambulances turning up in the street.
Its a street.
Its not believable at all
We need the storyline to finish now regarding Geoff and his wife
The story writers drag everything on kicking and screaming for far too long
