Yes they did a barrel store meeting I'm sure !

Talking about barrel stores ..
You never see anyone delivering anything to all these businesses do you ? .. it is really unrealistic in that regards as most places have them at least a few times a week!

This is true you don't see the giant bread van at the minute mart do you ?

Johnny was in today's episode, doing not much.

Dean's trial begins in September.

Poor Bernie today
A woman who isn't in the loop about ' the six '

I loath Reiss
I hope he gets found out ( by Phil or Sharon ) and they get him thrown in jail asap
Even Sonia doesn't deserve this one

Oh now I do remember Phil in the kitchen at the Vic with some of the Six when Jack was telling them about Callum growing suspicious.

The number of time they have all congregated in the Barrel Stores shouting the odds about the murder you’d think someone (George, Elaine, the girls) would have noticed. It’s laughable that people can miraculously ‘overhear’ conversations going on in the noisy Cafe or Vic when a plot requires it but will be in one room in their house and not hear people talking loudly in the adjoining kitchen.

Gutted that the whole plot about Ken will resurface in September tbh. It's had its day really.
Neat vodka 🤢 how does Linda do it?
(I had a bad experience once with that spirit , never again ( but with orange juice as a mixer )

I’m still fairly invested in The Six story. I’ve said since it all came out about Linda that I expect her to leave for good this year - she’s not got many ties to the square now (we hardly ever see Annie, Ollie and Johnny) and she’s not a ‘lifer’ unlike Sharon, Stacey, Kathy, Suki and Denise. She’s the most disposable character of the six. So I’m interested to see how it’s going to play out. Could be wrong, but I expect Kellie Bright to exit by Christmas.

Aww: I will miss Linda and get legendary drinking ( of her profits)
Poor Ollie / Annie too if mummy ends up in prison.

I wouldn't say Suki is a lifer, I would think she is the 'most disposable'. Linda has been there longer and has as much family left as Suki, Suki having lost most of hers via jail or death! Eve still doesn't know about about all this does she? When it comes out it's likely to break them up because Suki has lied about it for so long.

I always thought Kellie would leave after Danny did, but she has stuck around so far with her sippy cup👌😆

I did read that Suki was leaving ages ago .. but since she hurt her leg in real life ( it was written into the show as an accident in a mosh pit) she's still there , but not had a really big story for a while. I wouldn't miss her around as much as Linda , but I do like Eve so it would be sad to see them part.

I am confused about how much the care home fees are. Reiss said he had paid £7.5k the other week (the money he scammed out of Sharon) yet still owes £13.5k so that is £21k, £7k a month? That is a very expensive bed for Sleeping Beauty.

So what is his plan for finding the fees in future? And what is he getting for that £7k, she just lies there with no 'care' happening, there is a drip stand next to the bed but she is not attached to it! He might as well put her in Sonia's spare room.😆

Poor Linda, I don't give much for her chances on the witness stand in September. @the80sweregreat I know what you mean about the plot having had its day. I hope it is properly wrapped up in September (without Linda in jail).

Big shocker about Callum and Johnny. I suppose there's not many other gay men around....oh no wait, I've just remembered they live in London 🤣

Didn't we all say on here that Callum / Johnny might hook up !! lol

A man is dead, and the culprit(s) are still at large - its only been a few months

True, I suppose there is still mileage from ' the six' storylines

I started today’s episode thinking Reiss was unfit to be a father and ended almost convinced he put Debbie in the condition she is in by trying to drown her! Sonia is in real danger. It looks like Martin’s spidey senses are tingling though!

Yeah I mean there's even a gay bar in the square ! Felix needs a story he could be a love interest for johnny an opposite attract kinda thing.

Yes I thought this and maybe Debbie was leaving him or planning too.

I think we speculated earlier that Reiss may have put Debbie in her current state. He said she had a stroke, but we only have his word for it. He may well attempt to finish the job shortly, although he is such a bungler he'll probably muck that up!

I had to wiki to find out why it's Ian going to the US with Lexi - very complicated relationships! Johnny and Callum would be a problem, given the upcoming trial.

Why is Ian going with Lexi ?
Ben is his half brother , but he rarely has much to do with his ' half ' niece ?
Not seen today's one yet .. sounds intriguing with Reiss ( who we all really hate )

It feels like this Reiss story is coming to a climax. Can’t find anything online, but I’m predicting he’ll kill Debbie and somehow Sonia will get blamed for it, then Reiss’s dark deeds will be uncovered resulting in a ‘lifer’ character staying in the show.

@the80sweregreat the Ian connection is very tenuous isn't it, they didn't interact much on the Square. I can see why Kathy is going, but not Ian (just wants a trip I suppose!). Also maybe to get him out of the way so Cindy is free to carry on seeing Junior?

Lots online about Reiss and his dark deeds.! I Hope Phil finds out about the money scam too.
Must be holiday season for a few characters now , so being written out for a while now ?
Can't wait to see todays one
