Oooh no more weddings for a while please!
Bad things happen at Walford Weddings! 😱

Is Sharon 56?? Blimey. Yeah…she was 16 when EE started so makes sense. So she had Albie when she was 50/51. Lol.

Considering Baby Julia was a result of a High Risk pregnancy , born during a building collapse , not breathing ( possible slightly early ) Bianca would not , never in a million years be able to wander about the corridor with her , on her grubby outdoor fleece while yelling at Grant .

My DC were full term ( actually plus dates ) and we were only allowed to remove them from our bedsides in their "fishtank cots"

It’s bizarre that Sonia seems to barely spend any time at the hospital. You’d think she’d be at her bedside day and night considering the circumstances of her birth but looks like Bianca and Lauren are holding the fort there while she focuses on ex husband’s funeral and hosting Linda’s family🤔

Just popped into to talk about the papers saying fans think Sharon will fall pregnant with grants baby. Hilarious.

Also how come all the actors they employ majority of them don't want to come back for a funeral or brief stint. Maybe kill them off 😂

There were people suspecting that Cindy would be pregnant with Junior’s baby 😂

Unexpected pregnancies are the bread and butter of EE storylines.

Sonia doesn't seem too bothered about baby Julia. I suppose it's a case of filling in the gaps with that one

A 56 year old getting pregnant would certainly be unexpected 😆

Baby Julia was supposedly so longed-for but is getting ignored like most soap children!

I find Kat's absence from all these scenes really odd. She would be supporting Stacey. I glimpsed her once in the background (the episode after the Live, I think) and then nothing. Alfie has been around but no Kat, she wasn't even at the 'memorial' was she?

Speaking of which, why would you have a memorial drinks about three days after the person died, and before the funeral? Surely that is what the wake is for.

I guess that the new 'Harry's barn ' has to be introduced as the new place for them to hang out now the Vic has gone

Seems Kat is but an extra these days

The wake was bizarre and hastily thrown together. Stacey and Sharon ‘couldn’t face it’. Where were Ian and Kathy.

I also find it odd that George hasn’t been to see Phil once or even asked after him. They were besties last year with Phil helping him out and housing him during all George’s dramas with Elaine. And unlike other instant friendships on EE they did have a pre-existing friendship.

George has been absent for ages really
He didn't even feature that much during the explosions etc

The only purpose of the memorial seemed to be to reinforce Ruby being an outsider who knew nothing about Martin, and Saint Stacey being his one true love.

Oh yes you are right about George, we have barely seen him either. I suppose he was sidelined so that Grant could take centre stage with Phil.

Stacey really blew it with Martin ages ago.
No wonder he was reluctant to be with her.
They did seem better off as friends.

Nicola paid for the wake, one of the characters mentioned in the episode that it was generous of her to do it for the community.

I really liked George and Phil’s friendship and was kind of disappointed that it hasn’t featured in Phil’s storyline! I guess George has had his hands full with the Cindy murder attempt but it wasn’t too long ago that George was asking Phil to be his best man and Phil was convincing George to make things up with his son.

Re: Nigel’s wife, I agree! I found it odd that Yolande tried to set Nigel up with someone else instead of encouraging him to be open with his wife who must be really suffering.

Yolande’s match making with that random woman was so strange and very out of character. Nigel is a married man and she is supposed to hold strong Christian values so why would she encourage him to date another woman! Saying that, she’s not married to yeah man Patrick is she so guess she’s living in sin??

I did like how underwhelmed she was at Denise and Jack getting back together, saying she couldn’t be bothered to drag Patrick over to hear their news.

Yolande is ' living in sin' ! I didn't actually realize this before.

I'm sure Nigel or someone else referred to Yolande as Mrs Trueman. Maybe it was Grant?

Yolande was previously married to Patrick so was Yolande Trueman, and I guess although they divorced she kept the name.

Nigel calls her Mrs T. I guess he only knows her by her married name.

Do the Truemans/Kim and Dee still run the B&B? Linda mentioned to Sonia that her family was struggling to live in two rooms in the B&B - I didn't realise it was still an operating business! I haven't heard or seen customers mentioned in years. Very confusing.

Eastie
I think that this ' b and b' kinds mentioned is just round the corner to them! Kim and co gave up running their b and b a long time ago. Plus we have seen the Foxes and they wasn't with Elaine or any of the knights etc.
I'm usually wrong, but I bet we never see this place and it's just there and available!

Linda I mean, not kinds ..
