Gray could kill all the ones we don't like.
We could all hire him out !
Who else can he push onto train tracks etc. ?

StEval · 01/01/2022 13:36

Ok rewatched it.
Aaron drops the phone and doesnt send the text
Music was Robert Miles -Children

What I dont get is how he bluffed to Neil that he had sent the text?
Neil checked both phones -how do you fake sending a text?

I didn't hear 'Children' being played , but the bomb squad music was ' on the run ' by Pink Floyd from the pulse live album.
It wasn't on for long.
They do have relevant music on sometimes , i often try to hear it when it's on in the Vic or the cafe too.

It looked to me like Aaron couldn’t go through with it. Be interesting to see if the others turn on him or the police find he was involved. Clearly too much of a piece of work to change his ways.

Lovely to see Polly from the Bill make a fleeting appearance.

the80sweregreat · 01/01/2022 14:07

I can't believe how long it takes the police to get to Walford! Every year it's the same.
The police station , It's not even that far away either.

the80sweregreat · 01/01/2022 14:09

I like Kheerat's brother who is the club DJ , he should have a few more stories this year I think.
He has such a cheeky face and him and Dotty worked well , until she blew it.
Is Ash still taking over the GP practice?

There are a lot of the old characters I've grown tired of that I think should go (or at least have a decent break). Not really a fan of Stacey, she's just a bit of a gobby hypocrite to me. I would keep her if it meant Sean returning though Grin

I'm not really a fan of the Mitchell's either, or Sharon. I think Billy deserves a decent storyline that doesn't involve him nicking something or getting ahead in life and then monumentally screwing it all up because Phil told him to do something. The trouble with the Mitchell's is it is just a rinse and repeat of their old story lines again and again. I find them really boring. He's managed to abduct a child again. They should get Suki's husband out of prison and have them take over at doing the dodgy stuff for a bit of a change.

We don't really see enough of Karen either. She's a bit annoying when she's sad, but hilarious when she's in a good mood.

Children was the dancing sequence just before the bomb was due to go off. Very apt "That all the walls of hate, war, and racism will fall down"
Meredusoleil · 01/01/2022 14:45

I heard Robert Miles' song Children when the clock was about to strike midnight and everything was being shown in slow motion.

Also recognised the barmaid with Linda but forgot she was in The Bill.

What I'm finding really hard to believe is that Ash and Eve were like arch enemies after Eve screwed Ash over the prescription. But now they are like best friends?!?

PinkDaydreams · 01/01/2022 14:49

Bring back Sean!

Thymeout · 01/01/2022 14:59

Can someone please explain to me why Mick hasn't spotted the text to Linda that Janine sent from his phone? 'Don't bother' That was the start of the NYE events.
Janine's speech to Mick about self-respect and being the Mick Carter he was meant to be sounded like something from the LTB faction on the Relationships board.

JacquelineCarlyle · 01/01/2022 15:01

Janine deleted it and also Linda's message that she had replied to.

the80sweregreat · 01/01/2022 15:28

Oh, didn't hear Children, it is a great song !!
I hope we hear more music on EE soon

home2012 · 01/01/2022 16:45

Isn't it normally this time of year that a few characters disappear to do panto

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 01/01/2022 17:07

Adam Woodyatt was doing "Looking Good Dead" when I was in Brighton ( around Oct) so depending on how long that runs for , who knows if or when Ian will come back

Steve McFadden usually does Panto but don;t know about this year

I was never a fan of Sean ( I wasn't watching it much then ) but I saw some YouTube Catch Up and couldn't believe how horrible he was .
When he lived with Gus , he didn't pay rent , walked all over Gus and made loads of lewd comments about Gus's girlfriend ( Gus was waiting for after they were engaged , Sean was really mocking , said he'd show the girlfriend what a real bloke could give her etc )

There was definately a golden opportunity for a Cull , but looks like it might only be Rocky that was close to being Dead Dead

the80sweregreat · 01/01/2022 17:29

Gus , I don't remember him at all ?
Sean was in it for a little while the other month. Nice looking , but a very flawed
character.

the80sweregreat · 01/01/2022 17:32

Ahh, I do remember Gus now thanks to Wikipedia !!

I thought it was a bit tight that the bar maid at Linda's mums pub got three lines, but lovely Tracey only lingered in the background of the Vic during this episode. Not fair!
70isaLimitNotaTarget · 01/01/2022 19:21

Gus was very quiet , Market Cleaner . He met a young woman selling DVDs on the Square ( she was loading her boxes of stock , Philth drove round in his Move these boxes bad mood then deliberately reversed into them. He had loads of room to drive forward , just being an arse )

Then Gus's ( Aunt ?) played by Rustie Lee (remember Rustie ?) totally steamrolls them (we're really just taking things slow , friends at the moment ) decides they are practically picking bridesmaids and schools , gives Gus his Mums huge engagement ring .
Girlfriend is all Illl have some of that so we all think she's a gold digger .

I still reckon Janine willl get the Market Inspector job.
Janine accused Stacey of stabbing her years ago . Janine will manipulate Mr Lister (she is very good at this ) and convince him he has dodged a bullet not employing the skuzzy Stacey Slater and her reprobate family crisis (s)
He'll be re assured that Frank Butchers daughter will take on the market .

The bomb in the mosque will be on the back burner a while but the Police will know there is activity and put Halfway on Special Obs . (What with him'n'Jack being the Only Cops In The Villlage )

We need to know more about Sukis DH

And yes , Ash and Eve suddenly laughing together and buying each other drinks , pur-leaze

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 01/01/2022 19:22

It's amazing how many ex-The Bill actors end up on Eastenders Xmas Grin

mrswhiplington · 01/01/2022 19:34

Meredusoleil I think Kathy did call Stacey Cindy. I actually rewound it just to see.

So Eve and Ash are now friends and will probably end up together. Suki will love that. ☹️

Oh! How strange 🤨
the80sweregreat · 01/01/2022 19:53

As you age you do get names mixed up!
Your not always word perfect at times . I'm not at all

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 01/01/2022 20:48

In one of the live episodes Tanya (Branning) said to Jane How's Adam ? and the look on her face Arse! I meant Ian. How's Ian

Maybe in Eastenders on set "Cindy" is a swear word Grin

the80sweregreat · 01/01/2022 20:54

I remember the live episode , the actress playing Tanya was mortified!
They must make many errors when they are filming , the Stacey mix up was obviously overlooked , unless Kathy is showing signs of dementia? ..
