I do rather like oscar. He’s funny and reminds me so much of max. I assume max will be coming back soon to see his son and maybe meet his daughter - she’s a mini max as well

So we have Mitchell’s galore and mummy Mitchell is getting notches on her bed post with a few in the square 😂😂

we have a wedding to look forward to. Sept 1 - in the bloody Vic again - that’s if they get married and yeah man Patrick doesn’t lose all his money (and howies)

kat and Alfie own the vic, still not sure how got a mortgage for the rest in 2 days - plus poor Stacey - that money was for her kids

talking of money - suki is gonna buy a baby. That’s if goes ahead with the idiotic plan. Esp once Ravi and Priya know - I’m still hoping Avain has an abortion.

Vicky still owes shaza thousands and def isn’t paying back £2k a month like she said

joel isn’t a nice boy and needs to taught a lesson or five - he will get into more trouble

glad Nigel has his wife and now to find someone for Phil. Prob be shazza - if she ever returns. Assume she has some personal stuff going on in real life

can’t think of anything else but sure I’ve missed loads our

Four weeks is ridiculous and it does feel longer , as of she’s been away for half a year ! Ollie has SEN and it’s a long time for the children not to be in education. She might have been home / cruise schooling though ! lol

excelledyourself · 01/10/2025 18:11

It’s definitely more than a month Linda’s been away. She left not long after Oscar arrived and found out Annie was Max’s.

Yes I also love watching Benidorm and Ken’s now in it

the80sweregreat · 01/10/2025 18:44

Tiger in Benidorm was funny! I liked Keanu ( ‘Ken’ !)

YES
this is the third time recently we have had a 'wedding' but no mention of the actual legal/civil realities
unless a lot has happened off screen neither Kat and Alfie, Patrick and Yolande or Peter and Lauren are actually married
even if the pub is a licensed wedding venue (how could that have been arranged since the pub and presumably the licence has just changed hands)...even then a wedding can't be legally arranged in such a short space of time
Do the SWs know nothing ?
I know its only a soap opera but I actually think there is a public information duty here. Legal marriage brings considerable protection for women and children, including where a spouse dies intestate. If women are lead to believe that a fancy frock, some flowers and some nice words makes them married, this makes them and their children vulnerable.

And much as I love Kim, when did she apply to be a celebrant and who licensed her??

I agree with a lot of what you say - yes, we watch TV for a bit of escapism so we do need it to be a bit more exciting/interesting/glamorous/dramatic than real life but there is also a level of duty when it comes to something like a soap and it would be nice to see some of the points you made covered. Given how often people split up in soaps they have plenty of opportunity to demonstrate how a woman who lives with a man essentially has no rights if they split up and the effects that can have!

However I have a vague memory of Kim becoming a celebrant as part of some previous plot device. It was a few years ago now and presumably something to do with someone else's wedding, I really can't remember any of the specific details but I'm sure it was something she did through official channels at the time.

I don't think Max is interested in Zoe at all, she was available at the time and he had an empty spot. He's come back for Stacey and yes, probably somehow they'll mix it in with the Brazil storyline. She'll flip flop about the idea for a while longer and then either go or stay because of Max, that's my prediction. There's got to be some kind of Max and Stacey trouble, and let's be honest Zoe can't be a particularly appealing option for any bloke anyway, she's awful, and is even worse next to Stacey, the love of Max's life - despite what Stacey says, she and Max are clearly the (godawful and miserable) loves of each others' lives, not Martin, Linda or Tanya!

I hate to get too serious about Eastenders because, well, it's Eastenders (!), but either the acting is great or it comes naturally to those two, because Max and Stacey do have chemistry on screen.

I noticed this, but then realised it’s right as it’s still the day of the wedding. So it might be a different episode, but we’re still on the same day.

Don’t know. I’m not usually that observant 😂

we usually have 4 a week so they shuffle the m over football and tennis but still usually have 4 and obv when they filmed it 6w ago wouid have worked out which day it would have been as filming would be early aug

Quite often an episode is more than one day, or a day lasts for more than one episode. The Peter/Lauren wedding scenes have been over 2 episodes but still the same day, and tonight's is likely to still be the wedding - Stace kicking off at Max and Zoe presumably

excelledyourself · 02/10/2025 12:45

I’m raging at Max already! Poor Oscar was so happy to see him and Max was barely giving him the time of day, then had the cheek to go crying to Stacey about needing people are him because of Abi dying (only one of his TWO dead kids) around him.

Blondeshavemorefun · 02/10/2025 14:05

Yes he has 2 alive kids in the same place

Who’s max’s other dead kid?

Zippidydoodah · 02/10/2025 18:52

Oh I’m so stupid. Bradley 🤦🏻‍♀️

ChonkyRabbit · 02/10/2025 19:27

I want to keep a tally of how many times Zoe has been slapped/punched since she returned.

Any additions or corrections?

Vicky x 1 (or two?)
Sharon x 1
Stacey x 1

I'm sure I'm missing some...

the80sweregreat · 02/10/2025 19:39

Zoe deserves some money from the criminal injuries board with all this hitting ! It is a bit much and it shows violence as the way forwards sometimes, which isn’t always good :(

Meredusoleil · 02/10/2025 20:04

Zoe really is a little minx. Jean is so right imho. I really felt for her tonight. And Lauren. Max is a nasty piece of work. Stacey played a blinder getting away from him tbh!

Upwiththisiwillnotput · 02/10/2025 20:04

So glad Stacey went and wasn’t drawn in by Mr Potato Head. What do they all see in him??

excelledyourself · 02/10/2025 20:30

God love poor Oscar.

Good scenes with Priya and Jean.

Zoe gets worse with every episode.
