Eastenders : SPOILERS

[the80sweregreat]

New thread for those of us who don't care about them !!
..

they always come in totally shit - then they calm them down

Freddie...

Yes , I'm sure that the girls will be ok

Was wondering if A and G can speak Spanish !
They must have gone to school over there
English schools are expensive.
Their early life has been a bit air brushed

The background music is very well chosen .

When Bobby'n'Freddie were in the Vic with Gina and Anna .. It Must Be Love by Madness .
When those thugs were duffing up F&Fs stall I Predict a Riot.

And see how Finleys terracota jumper matched Suki's wallpaper and Howie's yellow jumper blended with Kims wallpaper .

The music is good on EE!

Things bothering me is that the wedding ring in the safe in the Vic said ' Cindy Rose '
So either George hasn't checked the engraving at all , or he knows more than he is letting on
It had a close up of the ring and a duf duf. ending a while back. She left her wedding ring behind , which is strange as was in WP? Surely you would check everything for clues if your spouse goes missing ?
She was also meant to be a hard nosed one married to him , yet wrote him many love letters?

The locket with the date engraved - that must have photos of Lucy and Peter (Dec 1993)
Why would she hold it and not open it ? Or have they already looked (one of them said Rose gave them the jewellry a dress-up) so they know there are other children. And Cindy/Rose has left a previous family behind ?

70s, none of it makes sense really. Quell surprise !
Rose / Cindy was around for 15 years , bringing up her children in a foreign country with different paperwork under the WP guidance ( I assume ) yet George didn't get a snifter of anything odd? Just that she was a 'woman of mystery'. I guess people do this , but wouldn't you ask questions or be a bit curious ? Plus he hasn't shown anyone a photo of her , Cindy has a photo of him with the girls. Elaine hasn't asked to see a photo of her nemesis after a year together ?
Maybe Rose took the baby photo out of the locket , or it's broken ?
Plus this ring engraving too
They have some clues , they are just not good at piecing it together

I'm wondering if Anna will start wearing the necklace and then Bobby will see the date? I also wondered why she didn't open it. I find the whole 'who knows what' around Cindy so confusing but presume the girls don't know she's got other children?

I don't think the Knights know about the other children. Anna might have a clue there , but they don't know Rose's links to the square , so it won't register at all.
Was a speculation on Facebook that , maybe , Gina isn't Cindy's child ?

@80s I've heard that mentioned too. The whole story is so far fetched, it's hilarious. I can't wait for the row between Cindy and Elaine!

No way would Cindy have left the locket. She obviously kept it the whole time she was in WP. She would also have taken anything of value if she was the Cindy of old.
Really felt for Kim and I'm glad Dee stood up to Detective Glum, he's a miserable git!
Can't be bothered with the rest of them really.

I saw on Facebook that Patrick's ex wife Yolandes coming back which was a surprise because I thought she died in Trinidad!

Although wiki has just told me she was last in Birmingham not Trinidad 😀

Cindy v Elaine
I feel it'll be epic
I like E though , she's a good actress
I bet Cindy ditches the hippy frocks for a more edgy look too. Show George what his been missing

I also think Elaine is a good actress. She isn't afraid to stand up to George so I think Cindy will have met her match.

It really bothers me when they bring characters in (I didn't think Finley actor was that bad) and do NOTHING with them. It's shit they never give them a chance, just the shouty characters getting storylines. They might not have to rehash old storylines and bring characters back from the dead if they gave some of the actors a chance. I'm getting a bit bored of Mitchell and Panesars dodgy dealings and angst, the foxes bickering with each other or the Slaters constant financial crises. I want to see something else with different personalities driving the storylines.

They bought Kim Metcalf in for all of 5 min too and then got rid when I really started to warm to the idea of Sam being back.

I do quite like the Knights though. Think George will be a good character, as will Elaine, and the girls are OK. I like that they are very different and I think the actors will be better after a while. It must be daunting joining EE, must take a while to settle.

Sam is coming back later this year.

I think Harriet Thorpe is doing a great job as Elaine. Maybe the actress playing Anna will improve after a while. She hasn’t done much professional acting before she joined the show.

Someone like Ben is such a natural actor that anyone who is new or not that good is shown up!
I really hope Elaine stays on as I've grown to like her. She is a pro.
Be nice to have Sam back as I liked her character especially with Zac too. They were good mates in the end.
I also read that Lisa is back too, but not sure when ?
Also next week there is a bit of angst with Theo and Lily and him home tutoring her. She ends up in hospital. Doesn't sound good

Poor Kim today :(
That was brutal

It's nice Kathy and Elaine are becoming friends
Although I'm sure it won't last once Cindy / ian come back !

Surely it would bond them? Kathy never liked Cindy.

Maybe a bond , but once she discovers Cindy is George's ex, she might turn on her ?
She is winding Kathy up today about the wedding , so it might be a short lived friendship anyway !

It was so predictable about Theo being Stacey’s secret cam customer. But I’m looking forward to seeing how this plays out.
