[Mrsjayy]

It was really hard going poor Whitney 😢

[Doingtheboxerbeat]

@SoupDragon

So sad. Proper tears here

Same here - not cried in a long while so the floodgates are open 😞.

[the80sweregreat]

The Zac and Whitney actors really knocked it out the park there
So sad.

[Mrsjayy]

It's not something I've ever experienced but I thought Shona Mcartney did the story proud.

[Meredusoleil]

I'm a bit surprised she still had to deliver the fetus whilst still at such an early stage in her pregnancy. Was she too far along to just take the pills?!?

[Mrsjayy]

She was 18 weeks.

[Mrsjayy]

She had a pill the day before and I assume she had her second at the hospital.

[Meredusoleil]

@Mrsjayy

She was 18 weeks.

So is that too far along then? Thankfully I've not had to deal with this kind of thing before, so really have no idea how it all works.

[Meredusoleil]

Or maybe I'm thinking of a D & C where they sort if operate and take the fetus out medically.

[Mrsjayy]

Actually the midwife said she was to have a pessary which started her labour

[Mrsjayy]

The pill she took would have ended the pregnancy.

[StiggyZardust]

I went through the same thing at nearly 16 weeks. This has been done very well.

[Mrsjayy]

I always think for all of its stupid inconsistencies EE do their serious stories with realism and compassion .

[Fiddlersgreen]

Sorry you had to go through that @StiggyZardust this must be very hard for you to watch.

I think the actors did so well, really felt their pain and heartbreak

[BrennieGirl]

I've had missed miscarriages at 17 and 19 weeks and had to be induced and deliver both babies. I fast forwarded through most of Whitney's and Zac's scenes tonight but from what I saw it looked very realistic.

[Jellykat]

It was all done so well, i've no experience mind, but could understand the heartbreak they portrayed..

Suki, wtf is she playing at?

[Xtraincome]

Had a weep at the Z & W storyline. Beautifully done. Very heartbreaking, great acting, sensitively done.

I am dropping it again:

LILY WILL GIVE WHIT HER BABY TO ADOPT

I am trying to predict a storyline.

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

The number of serious storylines going on at the moment -
Whitney and Zac and the trauma of her TFMR
Denise and Ravi , him going straight nto his new conquest , most likely to get a reaction from Dee
Nish and Suki wedding , Eve hovering round for crumbs
Poor Vinny ( he's a trier) not dealing with the responsibility of the tenents
Lola , her impending death

Why the actual hell are they wasting so much screen time on the stupid Denzil/Gazette reporter/Patrick&Vi storyline . Such utter , utter shite .


Nish did not look good in a turban but I did like his dancing .
Harvey looked like he worked in a chipshop, Ravi looked like a pirate (and smokin' hot )

[XanaduKira]

Just watched Whitney giving birth - heartbreaking. Sending love to anyone who has been through this as it's just so awful. I think they both did a great job on portraying just how horrendous it must be.

[RedToothBrush]

@Twonewcats

I like Z and W together. They now have a tragic bond together, and hopefully they decide to stay together and try again. Would be a great educational storyline, given that there are still so many incorrect beliefs about HIV and AIDS

Both had troubled childhoods not really being wanted too. I think they are good together.

Eve is so getting murdered. (Christmas Day motive)

But I wonder if Mitch and Honey will get sucked in too first. I believe there's a cast cull in the offing (hence Lola being axed - apparently the actress who plays her was gutted but was told others were going as they were surplus to requirements). Quite frankly I do think there's a fair amount of dead weight ATM.

Violet and Patrick are going to have a romance now aren't they? They can die in a shock double murder, where they are found in bed much to the horror of Callum who finds them in a compromising position.

Callum can die in service getting too close to the truth.

Postie dude can be mown down in a hit and run after failing to deliver important package to the correct house, thereby revealing a dangerous secret. Kim can just die on the spot with a sudden unexplained cardiac incident. Whilst live to her followers. She's bloody pointless.

Mitch does just hang around drinking cups of tea.

I'm struggling with finding justification for Honey to survive at this point. Her days should be numbered. And get rid of dull Bernie. She's like Sonia but even less interesting. At least Sonia has reached ironic levels of frump and Dot mimicking.

Nish being a serial killer / hiring people to do his dirty work seems plausible. He could drag Phil and Vinnie and Ravi into the shit show.

(Can you tell I liked and watched Hollyoaks for many years but feel too old for it now? No one can escape my genuinius

Speaking of tragic characters - nothing goes right for Whitney, but I think Karen has had a rough ride too from the script writers but cos she's gobby, ugly and old (and not dating) she doesn't get the sympathy perhaps she's due.

[Twonewcats]

At the end, why did Eve just accept Suki and start getting it on with her? Wouldn't you be saying ooooooh hang on, we've been here before, why should I believe this isn't just another one-off? Or - Hey, Suki mate, the whole street is out having a party to celebrate your marriage blessing - they're gonna notice you're not there pretty soon

That's what I was thinking. So unrealistic, as if Eve would go there again after getting her fingers burned by Suki once already 🙄

[Motheranddaughter]

I could hardly watch last night’s episode
Cried buckets and I never cry at TV

[JMSA]

The scenes between Zac and Whitney were heartbreaking and so well acted. However a tiny part of me thought it was overkill.

It was unrealistic that Suki went to Eve on the day of her wedding, after resisting for months. And I must admit that when I saw Eve at the ceremony, I thought "would you just FUCK OFF!"
