They've just used that line with Suki re her and Eve's adoption.
Are the writers just passing the same script around now 😅

Just can't get over how many accidental pregnancies there are, and it's ALWAYS the underage kids or the older women.

Even the writers have given up!😆

I wonder if she’ll have a miscarriage and G finds out he was the dad. They can write in all sorts , maybe find out the baby has some kind of problem or defect and she has to have a termination. All grim and not very pleasant, but they like to hi light problems like this ( as they did with baby Peach once )

I'm thinking the same about the pregnancy. They are obviously on a mission to de-villainise Nicola, and giving her a hard decision to make about a termination would make her sympathetic.

No way would Nicola - a man's woman - confide in Honey. She is an outlier who doesn't cultivate female friendships.

It was out of character for Nicola to confide in Sweden ( Honey) especially as they are chalk and cheese and there is a chance she may let the cat out of the bag at any time. Agree that Nicola isn’t a ‘ woman’s woman at all ‘, but maybe she just needed to blurt it out ?

Maybe sam is the stalker?

My bet the .Stalker is Freddie, because he's close to jean and he's angry that Zoe made Stacy leave , upsetting jean ..and plus he's leaving soon ..
But they are trying to make us think it's jean

Zoe finds an earring in the barrel store after another weird incident ( next week)
Id love it to be Chrissie watts, but so unlikely. Unless it is Freddie and he is trying to throw them off the scent by doing this? Make it think it’s a woman ?

Teddy taking the blame for Harry makes no sense. Oakie had dozens of enemies and everyone saw him dumped in the square, battered by rival gang members as punishment for stepping on their turf. Given how easy it is on EE to stitch people up for crimes they didn't do with the flimiest of evidence (Dean, Dolan..) it would have been child's play for Nicola and Teddy to set up the stabbing so it looked gang related.

It looks as if they are completely rewriting Nicola's character now. She was vile to Honey when she first arrived and now she's confiding in her..

I’ve a feeling ( from what I’ve seen and read online) the actor playing Teddy wanted to leave. Agree that ( normally ) the residents get off most murders or manslaughter charges and they could have made this look like a gang land killing very easily especially as Harry had already given the police some names and they knew about Kojo etc. I did think that Teddy or Nicola wouid do this to be honest.
They always change people’s characters. Suki wasn’t that nice to Honey either at first , especially after she tried to kiss her once and pretended to have cancer, yet we were all cheering her on marrying Eve and Nish finally getting killed off a few years later. Billy is another one who wasn’t that nice to start with. I’m sure there are others too I can’t recall , but it is a soapy thing to do. Even Phil is being alright lately and his done some pretty horrible things historically ( although I do like him , so he can be forgiven a bit lol)

Nicola's rehabilitation is in full swing then. I'm just glad Okie's dead and if Teddy now disappears I am not too bothered.

Never mind Kobina's demands, surely Kojo will be deported anyway for overstaying his visa.

The kitchen clock shows 10.30 and Julie is not at work. Has she resigned?

I know that Santa play is going to drive me barmy but at least Nigel has finally cheered up.

“Mrs C” was wearing a terrible wig!

Maybe Kojo wouid be better off back home in Ghana ! Walford may be a lovely place of community spirit and togetherness ( according to Suki and Eve the other week when Norma cane up , which made me laugh ) but since his been living there his has had all kinds of nasties to deal with poor thing.
People generally do better away from the square and it’s troubles and murders and stalkers

They always have a play or a concert or a choir this time of year to brighten up the other bad things that usually happens at Christmas! I suppose it’ll be Nigel’s play this year.

@Shellingbynight I came on here to say the same about Mrs C's wig 🤣.

Lexi said she had an inset day so is off for teacher training, so shouldn't Julie be in school for this?

Julie is never in school nowadays. They'll be sending out a search party!

Walford is definitely the crime capital of the world so Kojo will be better off back in Ghana.

Julie is never at work! Must have a very good head who lets her have a lot of time off , or possibly only ( very) part time !

Crime capital with the highest unplanned pregnancy rates.

Inset day in the middle of the week... hmmm 🤔

That wig deserved a mention in the credits. It was quite something!

I think the wigs are generally poor - I noticed the other day Yolande has a new one.

I also think it was out of character for Nicola to tell another woman but I think she is so stunned to be pregnant (like we all are) that when Honey offered to listen, her announcement just fell out. When was her liaison with George? It feels ages ago to me.

She had her brief fling with George a few months ago and then she disappeared. They had two liaisons in the office ( that I can recall anyway)
The first one was to stop him going to the flat for some reason to do with Harry and the drug dealers.

@80s that's right, I remember now!

You’d think Nicola would be showing by now as I’m sure her last liaison with George was months ago.

Kojo is definitely better off back in Ghana. The square has been a disaster for him. Wasn’t it this time last year he was in hospital after Cindy pushed him down the stairs when he saw her kissing Junior. They both gaslit and blackmailed him into silence. Then he had to go through George forcing him to provide a fake alibi when Cindy was attacked. I agreed with Ravi when he told George he should have done a better job looking out for him.

Did anyone else find it a bit moving when Oakie was dying and said he wanted his mum and told Harry he was lucky (presumably because he has a family looking out for him). He also told Harry not to call the police or an ambulance so as to keep him in the clear. I think he could have been a redeemed character!

I had forgotten that Cindy pushed Kojo because he saw her with Junior! Then she told him not to say anything etc. He ended up in hospital :(

Nic and George were together around mid-August so she'd be 3 months now.

@Eastie77Returns I know I should have found Oakie's death moving, but I was so fed up with the drugs storyline I just wanted it over. They should have let him reveal a bit more about his background, but he was brought in as disposable so I suppose they didn't think it was worth bothering.
