Teddy's ex-wife appears later this autumn:

She looks like another Peggy.

Oh gawd! Another ' Martina Cole' type character who will probably be a bit of a hard nut and clash with Sharon
Just a guess based on looks

And there we have it - Creepy Reissy said to Bianca "I'm warning you!"
He's definitely going to flip! 😱

I’m starting to get a bit bored of the Bianca and Reiss battle and wish I knew when Natalie Cassidy is due back filming so this whole thing will be resolved. My guess is sometime this month because at the end of the month they film the Christmas scenes.

It was nice to see David at the end of that episode.

I know it was a scene well done with Yolande and the Pastor and a very harrowing storyline , but enough now. Yolande needs to get a grip.
David wicks ! Looking good.
Hope that Sonia returns soon as well
It needs to be resolved

Freddie's acting is improving.
As if they would take on Alfie just like that ! That really was a far fetched storyline , but only to get Alfie out of it for a while I suppose
Tommy is turning into his late dad :(
Not a good thing

Suki wouldn't have even spoken to Alfie let alone have an interview lined up for him.
I said the other week that Nugget and Avida will be running the show and here we are! 😆
It's so ridiculous. Just write Alfie out by having him visit a friend or something like that instead. Plus he still has to pay his bills on the flat. All forgotten about.
Always so much chemistry with Alfie and Kat though , they do seem to actually get on.

That entire episode felt hammed up to the max.

I thought Freddie couldn’t get any more annoying. How wrong I was. We now have to suffer the Birdman of Walford diagnosing Bianca.

Shane over acting, although he was working with thin material. I do like him and Jessie together though.

Yolande ignoring that one of the reasons for reporting the pastor was to stop him doing the same to another woman. So that box is ticked. But she’s still going to have a continuing epic meltdown. I don’t want to lose sympathy with her but…

Cindy and Junior 😴

David looking good.

😆 bird man of Walford ! 🐦
Most boys his age are more interested in the non feathered variety , but maybe him and binoculars will suss out Reiss and he'll turn into Ludwig overnight.
Yolande does need to move on , but if it's going to be bibles in the bin every other minute I may have to fast forwards her bit
Maybe the wife will stalk her now !

Didn't mean to be sexist there calling women ' birds' by the way. Not very PC.
( Showing my age .. 😆 )

Women were called birds when I was young too!

It's such a shame the pastor storyline has taken this turn as it started off well. Now it just feels verging on self indulgent, with Yolande lashing out at everyone in sight.

You don't hear people call them that these days . Progress I suppose , but it wasn't meant maliciously back then. (Although I'm sure people would be offended by it these days!)
The pastor story is a cop out
I wanted him in jail, confessing his sins , wife told what he was really like by other people and so on , the whole shebang;(

Dunno what Patrick sees in Yolande to be honest. She was always spiky , difficult etc.
She did well calling out the pastor and it was very sad she was abused like that , but it is dragging on now and maybe a little break for her and Patrick again might be a good idea.
They both need it.
She needs to find her faith again.
Maybe the nice young pastor up the community centre will help her ? He seems a good shout and caring.

What is Junior up to? Is he playing the lothario card just to tap into Ian Beale's empire? Have just seen him poring over a lap top with Cindy's details on.

Also it looks like Kat is trying to get Bianca committed to a mental hospital, but Bobby knows Bianca possibly has ADHD, he's a better health professional than Sonia !

I agree about Yolande, she's hard work, and those faces she pulls !

I've seen Anna who plays Yo on another programme with some of her castmates, and she looked lively and completely different, she was wearing a lovely Nefertiti head dress.

I know David is back for just a short stint.
But wondered how short.
A week ? Or even less ?

I don't see the point of the Yolande story taking its latest turn. I'd like to see her have some therapy to process her trauma, same with Linda, but EE characters never do counselling, which is strange because loads of them need some!

I find short stints really annoying when you haven't seen the character foe years and years.
A year or two is just about ok.
But a week or two is stupid for the fans of the Soap.

Junior was signing Cindy up for a book keeping course , but it's just a front for her to show Ian and they can sneak off without him getting too suspicious. In fact , they went off today to a hotel. Ian may wonder why the ' books ' are still big up to date after a while , but he isn't the brightest sometimes.
Yolande could definitely do with some counseling. I hope someone suggests it.

Not up to date I mean !

glad David is back, but my god, that was such an awful episode of over acting.
Yolande is excruciating.

Bianca in the pile of rubbish was very over the top. I hope Wicks sorts her out

I thought the same about David Wicks, looking good.

Agree most of the storylines being duds, Bianca rolling around the square trollied, Alfie getting sacked and then gets a job where he’s interviewed by teenagers. I’ve just seen a few pigs fly by.

I liked Elaine coming to the aid of Yolande but it was all too short. Poor Yolande couldn’t have justice by having Pastor Clayton brought to court, what a cop out that he ended his own life.

How could anyone believe that within a week two teenagers could run a business ( which is actually a franchise ) on their own without consulting Suki or Vinny ? The money / legal side of it would be baffling to most people , let alone two who are still at school and have very little business acumen to draw on.
It's beyond silly they could be left to get in with it. Plus the bookie lady wouldn't give Alfie a reference, or not a very good one anyway ! She fired him on the spot
