The girls would have to attended a Spanish school or an international one ( which were private when I lived there for two years in the 2000s)
If it was a state Spanish one , they should at least be able to speak ' pigeon Spanish ' or have an accent of some kind. Unless Cindy Rose home schooled them, but then they had 9 years without her..
George had a business there , surely he could speak some ? Even if he wasn't fluent.

I doubt Cindy did homeschooling somehow😂

In soaps no one ever worries about accents

Remember Scottish Waterloo Road

the80sweregreat · 02/09/2023 14:11

The whole story has so many ' freak coincidences' as George put it as well as plot holes which haven't been addressed
The fact he met Linda's mum over there ( what's the chances ?) , the fact nobody has asked her what she was doing for nine years ( living on fresh air?) , the fact she can produce ironed cutesy dresses and a scarf out of one bag , is she still married to Ian or George etc etc
All of which will be air brushed out of significance!

Meredusoleil · 02/09/2023 14:20

I think Cindy and George did not marry legally. Maybe they had some kind of unofficial wedding. Although, she probably could get away with it using the name Rose instead of Cindy!

Eastie77Returns · 02/09/2023 14:53

Maybe she had another couple of kids during the 9 years. Her second set of twins will turn up in a years time “mum how come you just left us in <insert random country> duff duff.

I think the scriptwriters are hoping viewers will be so swept up with her return that they won’t question some of the plot holes.

For example why did she secretly return when Lucy died but not bother following Steven’s death? By then her handlers knew Lucy was not killed by the gangster family. In fact since returning all of her wailing and mourning has been about Lucy and she has barely mentioned her first born!

I still can’t work out how she found and reconnected with Ian.

the80sweregreat · 02/09/2023 15:00

Yes, why didn't Cindy Rose go back to George once the police discovered that Lucy's death was nothing connected to her being in WP?
She also went into this arrangement with the police a few weeks after having Cindy jnr
If anyone has a reason to hate her more than the others it's Cindy jnr ! Plus Steven died in a terrible fire , yet nothing for him either
Selfish cow !!

Eastie77Returns · 02/09/2023 15:19

Re. Cindy jr: I think her reasoning is that since she gave her up at birth, Cindy jr hasn’t ever really ‘missed’ her. She said something to that effect when Kathy asked why she hasn’t gone to Germany to see her.

The lack of remorse over Steven is bizarre. There was a scene where she went to Lucy’s grave but not his, they must be in the same cemetery.

It seems she’s now only interested in Gina & Anna but probably only as a way to get George back. Kathy’s right, she hasn’t changed at all!

the80sweregreat · 02/09/2023 15:39

Cindy junior was brought up by her grandparents in the west country or somewhere.
Going by tv shows / books etc , I always thought some people knew if you went into WP ( as long as you could trust them / family etc) so I wonder if they knew ? Or were spun the whole ' died having her ' lines?
Cindy jnr was a lost soul at one point and became pregnant with TJ's child ( one of Bianca Butchers sons or whatever relation he was)

the80sweregreat · 02/09/2023 15:43

Oh I'm sure she'll get George back from Elaine's clutches!
The girls will be bought with ian's money ( spa days, trips up London ) or some family crisis which will bring them together again to talk about Marbs and what they had etc

I thought she was raised by her Aunt Gina, Cindy’s sister, in Cornwall? Could be wrong. Yeah maybe her family knew.

Wakintoblueskies · 02/09/2023 17:40

I’m surprised Cindy wasn’t in Ongar!

Didn’t Steven turn psycho along with Abi Branning in the end? I remember him setting buildings on fire? No wonder nobody mentions him.

the80sweregreat · 02/09/2023 18:18

I remember Ian mentioning Cindy jnr 's grand parents, but it might have been Gina who brought her up thinking about it.
Ronnie and Roxy never did get to Ongar did they :(
It is a lovely part of Essex though
Steven shot Jane once and had many issues
Abi and him made a lovely couple !

iknowimcoming · 02/09/2023 21:20

I'm enjoying it all but couldn't help snigger at Cindy in Spain wearing jeans and boots and then putting on her coat to leave! She then appears in the square peering over the railings with a woolly scarf pulled around her face for disguise GrinGrin

Wakintoblueskies · 02/09/2023 22:08

Abi was a superb actress. I never understood why people rated the actress who played Lauren when the one who played Abi was head and shoulders above her.

EconomyClassRockstar · 02/09/2023 22:22

Not only did Pete, Kathy and Ian live in a high rise, they thought they were really grand for doing so. I remember that bit!

My friend grew up in Germany in Army barracks. Her family were broad Scots but she has the poshest English accent you've ever heard. So yep, they'd have picked up some sort of accent.
(Fyi, it's pidgin, not pigeon. Not sure why, though 🤔)

the80sweregreat · 03/09/2023 06:54

My phone kept saying ' pidgin' but i thought it was wrong . You live and learn !

Lol, it is a weird word, eh?

the80sweregreat · 03/09/2023 17:30

Was always convinced it was the same spelling as the bird.
Although no idea why that would be linked to speaking languages in a non fluent way.

Eastie77Returns · 04/09/2023 09:30

Random thought..it would be great if they brought back David Wicks. He really was Cindy’s great love. Imagine Ian’s face. That would definitely put the cat among the pigeons😭

the80sweregreat · 04/09/2023 09:43

David wicks was yummy ; no wonder she preferred him to Ian Beale.

TheSkull · 04/09/2023 13:06

David Wicks was the hottest bloke on the Square until Danny Dyer… 🤪

the80sweregreat · 04/09/2023 13:28

The actor went on to star in Holby city I think ?
He is very easy on the eyes !
