Linda would be front of house like Ravi.

Has it always been a restaurant, I can't remember. Walford certainly has a lot of bars and restaurants!

Johnny is still allegedly a lawyer, Linda said something like 'you can work anywhere'.

I’d like Johnny to set up his own lawyer practice on the square! He’d get a few clients I’m sure..
..Probably sorting out Callum’s affairs for him when Ben finds out he cheated on him!
Was Ravi’s restaurant once the ‘argy bargy ‘ one that Mahsood used to run , but then again I thought Kim crashed the car into that building once , so maybe not.
They do have a lot of restaurants and bars for one small area

my DD had a paper copy.

my DNiece got hers emailed as she's on holiday.

So it really depends on school/preferences.

The living arrangements of people on the square is always a mystery.

Where does Anna live? And Cindy?

When Linda returns she will move into Kat’s old flat, which must be a 3 bed max, with Elaine, Johnny, Annie and Ollie. Kat was renting that place but was able to move out in one day without giving notice or getting permission to move new tenants in. Ok.

I didn’t realise George had moved in with Phil. I keep fast forwarding his scenes with Nicola. Is there a reason they have to keep using her office as a knocking shop with club staff and their own children catching them in the act every 5 minutes. Nicola has her own flat on the square!

So Priya got pregnant when Nugget was 2 months old! 😬

Amd then allowed one kid to be taken away while keeping the other. Odd.....

I was wondering where Anna and Cindy live now too..no one lives in the flat the Taylors used to live in now do they

Well ...she was with Ravi 🤷‍♂️ !!

🤦😲😅!

Didn't she run away because ravi's Dad was being so horrible

Back again, with lots to catch up with as per usual!
I was confused too with the Nugget/Avani doing GCSEs in the same year, but yes, they definitely do still get a paper copy.
Wondering if anyone noticed a very
Mart In like extra in the background, in the scene where Ravi was at JackandJack's door?
Laughed at the chicken coop set up - how was that sourced AND installed so quickly 😅
So glad tbe Avani pregnancy storyline changed tracks.
The Joel character revolts me, and fully agree Max Murray is an excellent actor playing this part.

Loved the Kat/Zoe trailer!

I could easily have a house full of mini-Ravis😍😅.

I can’t believe Dee turned him down for JackandJack but I suppose stability wins over a career drug dealer. And he and Priya do make a gorgeous couple.

I just know that when Zoe shows up there will be a lot of shouting and Alfie in the dog house and general Slater mayhem. Not sure if I’ll be ready for it all or not really!

I am dreading Zoe's return because such a huge thing has been made of it and I am not sure her melodramatic backstory is going be credible. And as you say, a lot of Slater shouting.😧

I still feel that the new producer is trying to roll back the clock to Kat’s more halcyon days with bringing Zoe back. It did work with Bianca and her family many years ago , but then I liked her. Zoe I was never keen on.

Priya and Ravi are gorgeous together, but it’s bound to end up a mess. Most relationships do on EE ( sadly)

I agree they are trying to bring the Slaters back front and centre. Whoever runs the Vic tends to be the ‘main’ family with the major (but always implausible) plots. Jessie Wallace is a great actress so I don’t mind her in the spotlight as she can handle big storylines. Jean and Stacey as well. I’m just not a fan of Alfie so could definitely do with less screen time from him.

Perhaps when it all kicks off with Zoe, Kat throws him out and he goes to stay with Spencer in Oz for real this time.

I don’t mind Kat really , she was sidelined a bit especially with the six storyline and becoming the very scary ‘ Kat Mitchell ‘ was funny but short lived.
I am just not looking forwards to a Slater falling out over Zoe , who was always a weak character really.
I don’t mind Alfie, but you just know that he’ll be centre stage for a big bust up. Have to see how it pans out!

I remember her not being the best of actresses as well .

There was some brief speculation ( Facebook ) that Nicola is actually related to Sharon somehow. Again , only fan talk and probably nothing in it , but can imagine the dynamics there with Sharon , Nicola , Zac and Barney etc.

@Jennalong I agree about Zoe, I never really rated the character or the actress. I think she would be better left in the past, but maybe they will prove me wrong!

I was going to say could Sharon’s bio dad, the evil guy Kathy was married to (Gavin?) also be Nicola’s dad. But that would mean Nicola and Zack are also siblings and they have a child together🤢🤯

But there has to be some significance behind Nicola randomly bringing the dad up. He’s apparently dead so he’s not going to turn up but maybe her mum will.

Easties I thought the only significance of the rather forced 'evil dad' scenes were to make us sympathise with Nicola. Hard to sympathise with a murderer, but this is EastEnders!

Fan speculation online, is that Okie kills Anna. Apparently Colin Salmon is reported to have said "Anna takes a bullet for George"

Oh no! Poor Anna. I hope it’s not true, but I know she is leaving the show. I did wonder if George might leave and go back with Kojo to Ghana, he seems to have lost his mojo a bit and the drugs story must be heading towards its end now we have seen the gun.
