Hopefully Lola didn’t die on her wedding night

she needs to meet her mum first

hoping lily will change her mind again and not have this baby. She’s too young to ruin her life

she’s 12 and should be treated as a child not given choices that will effect the rest of her life

zac has hiv which we know means Whitney won’t have an easy pregnancy /birth

Give the girl a break

will there be a 3 way with mum and daughter Chelsea and Ravi

will Sonja get together with reiss who looks sexy when shaved /hair and no glasses - we are a fickle lot !!!

anything else I’ve missed

They don't have many Asian characters, historically speaking do they? The Masoods, the Panesars and Sanjay and Gita from years ago. Kush & Shakil were half Iranian weren't they?

have they ever had East Asian characters (Chinese/Japanese/Korean etc)?

they seem very "bland" with their ethnic mix.

Yes. Both Kush and Shakil were Iranian irl and also I think their dad was supposed to be in EE, although we never saw him. Carmen did have another son though, didn't she? The one she went to live with in Dubai?

Ali Osman was a Turkish Cypriot. He was in it from the start.
They also had an Italian family in it once. Be ppe is the only one I remember from that particular family.

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/02/2023 17:06

Beppee and his gorgeous brother

Ravi might be undercover , wasn't he put into solitary confinement when it all kicked off in prison when Phil was in there ?
( just something I saw online that made me think, although I did find all that confusing !)
It would be an interesting twist and maybe why I think he'll also stalk Denise. Especially after her leaving him in the hotel.

Ooooh I hope so I quite fancy him
Of course he will never be as lovely as Fatboy 💔
It would be a great twist
All speculation btw

Kush
Masood
Tamwar
Keerhat
Shakil

I'm currently going with the theory Ravi is undercover and is going to take down Nish

Oo I love that undercover Ravi 😄

I had no idea Kush and Shakil were half Iranian!
Apologies
I thought Shakil was killed as a racial attack targeting Asian men but can't remember fully as I couldnt watch all of it 😞
I really miss Kush, annoying they killed him off

Snoredoeurve · 27/02/2023 18:02

One thing that's always odd on EE and Corrie is that the whole family live in the same area .
Is this realistic?
Yes a few escape( Ricky, Grant, Sam) but there are no couples / single people who aren't living near their family.
Possibly realistic in the past but now ??

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/02/2023 18:03

True tho surely jack as he is so high up (lol) would know if uc

Kush and shakils dad showed up when Shaki died the had something at Mashoods house where the imam came, I can't remember much about it they lived in Dubai and I think they brother was called Darius.

Oh yes! Well remembered. I thought the dad may have been in it briefly, but can't recall him. The brother called Darius sounds right.

Mrsjayy · 27/02/2023 18:15

Maybe just Darius lives in Dubai that's where Carmel is.

XanaduKira · 27/02/2023 18:17

Carmel was a great character- loved her.

They had the Ferreira family , (including the lovely but quite wimpy Ash )

And the cafe/taxi firm ( which is now Kathy's) was run by Sue and Ali Osman , with Ali's brother Mehmet and his wife Guisin (though Mehmet spent most of his time gambling and womanising rather than taxi-ing)
Ali, Mehmet and Guisin were Turkish ( I think Cypriot born Turkish ) Sue was a Londoner so they showed a lot of the struggles she had with his family isolating her , expecting her to behave in a certain way and ignore her husbands failings .

And way back in the beigining there was Saeed and Naima Jeffrey who ran the shop , Saeed was caught going to prostitutes

Mrsjayy · 27/02/2023 18:18

Yes I loved her too, she was a great character..
