Gina becoming so interested in Dean and his daughter is stupid and makes no sense.

She definitely seems to be on a permanent mission to rescue troubled men. First her ex boyfriend in Marbella. Then Jay. Now Dean. Some real issues from her mum leaving her I would say!

I can't warm to Gina really
Anna is sweet , but Gina has too many issues and a is a bit odd

Both of them are “weak” filler characters to me. They probably want diversity so have included mixed race women (great!) but the way the characters and their Marbella lifestyle is portrayed is very weak!

I actually do know some Marbs characters (Costa del crime and people who just like Spanish life!) in life though and they ring true to some degree…

Show quote history

Gina is stupid. Doesn’t she realise that if she sticks up with/gets involved with Dean she’ll be persona non grata with most if not all of her family!

Could be a honey trap !
Good call
Although dh told that Dean is in it another year , but might be fake news ..
( he tends to read celeb news sometimes online , but no idea myself)

Oh good god not more of his bad acting and smirks (sorry Matt di angelo).

Anna's character is sweet but her acting is terrible imo

Having lived in Spain in the 00s for a few years I can agree that certain people are Marbella ' types' too ! I wasn't that far south myself though , but a visit was enough ! Lol

Priya was terrible the way she talked to Stacey in today’s episode but she’s also entertaining as a character.

Not seen todays one yet

I bet that Ken ends up running off to be his mum , after all, his bound to discover he isn't the little ones dad and Sharon will try and kill him for the kidnap nonsense , so no reason to hang around.
Be interesting to see how many secrets come out Christmas Day
This will be Sharon's husband number 5!

I’m would love a big shock in the upcoming episodes. Keanu leaving, Educating Dee finding out about Jack and Stacey, Keanu, Dean and Nish leaving, the occasional Phil
in peril story that you can never invest in because they won’t axe the actor…you can see it all coming a mile off.

Jack and Stacey has been signposted a while
I hope she finds out and gives him hell
Especially after his he was about Ravi

At least she had a sizeable break between brothers. A woman in our village left her husband for his brother, and now her kids have Uncle as live-in step-dad figure. I'd have moved away (well I'd not have got together with bil in the first place).

It was pointed out to me where the ex cons lived in Costa del Sol on one of my first visits by someone who was I think an ex con herself! Luckily across water or bay from where we were!

Is there a Branning Stacey hasn't bonked?

I know there's 'having a type' but this really is taking it too far...

RedToothBrush · 14/12/2023 21:21

Meanwhile Sharon is lying about Albie's father to Phil.
Whilst Alfie is covering up Phil's affair with Kat.
So natural Sharon and Phil will go about killing each other by also bonking.
Probably on Christmas Eve before the wedding.

Keanu knows about Emma and Phil
His bound to tell Kat once Phil discovers that Albie is his and Ken 'kidnapped ' him ( or was behind it anyway )
It'll all kick off

OP posts:
Meredusoleil · 14/12/2023 21:27

I just feel sorry for Kat and her boys in all this mess. She is the only one who hasn't done anything, but has the most to lose. Unless she gets back with Alfie of course!

the80sweregreat · 14/12/2023 21:30

Kat wanted stability with Phil for her boys
I feel she might have forgiven the Emma indiscretion as it was before they got married ( just ) and they had split up briefly too
He was just too scared to tell her the truth ( of course ) and just hoping that Ken keeps quite too! Such tangled webs they spin on EE
