Oh, she has a key! That makes sense ( sort of)
Nice of Zack to clear up the mess that Vicki made. Most people would have made her clear it up herself.

She said Sharon gave her a key for some unknown reason. If Vicky is there why would Sharon need Kathy to pop round. And if you went round to a house you had a key for and saw the light on, wouldn't you knock on the door just as a courtesy...

Pe-tah and Lauren have been on honeymoon for weeks in a conveniently undisclosed location that is presumably abroad, despite being short of money not so long ago. Maybe they've joined Linda on the cruise. So that leaves 17 year old Oscar to run the stall alone (in between following 'Jasmine Ford' around the square). Ian is looking after both boys FT and running his businesses at the same time lol.

I assume the Big Boss had Ravi brought in to question what happened when he was arrested and to find out if he told the Fedz anything by administering a beating.

Lauren hadn’t long gone back to work, yet they went away on honeymoon. ( I suppose the car lot is another business that runs itself and probably annual leave she has saved up ?! )
Jasmine ends up pushing Cindy down the stairs next week , she’s only been back for a few days and already back in hospital it seems :(
I bet she wishes she had stayed in Devon. Far safer.

Just seen new years day episode will be a flash forward, the whole episode airing on 01.01.2026 will be set on 01.01.2027

Just saw something very interesting on Facebook and looks like it’s real and not made up or fan fiction.
They are going to show a fast forwards episode on New Year’s Day showing Max in a ‘ flash forwards’ to 2027 !
Had a photo of him with a button hole on with blood on it. Looks interesting, but will mean a whole year of speculation.

The car lot (who actually owns it??) joins Phil's garage as a business that is not open due to lack of staff and no-one is bothered.

Phil phoned up Harry ( once) about the arches, but nothing since snd he clearly isn’t going back to work yet. Is Kojo staying now or what is happening with him ?
Jay has left , Lauren is away. The car lot must be shut too. They are very cavalier with business ownership !

So she could use the key to let herself in at the very precise moment Zicky happened.

Well that's an original idea!

I don't know why but I find Vicky so bloody irritating. The scenes seem to take ages and the dialogue is repetitive.

Oh, can drippy Ross just fuck OFF. Such an annoying character.

My money is on also really annoying Jasmine being Zoe’s tormentor and the daughter who ‘died at birth’. There has to be a reason that possibly the most annoying character of all Ant-knee is still knocking about the Square. He’s the daddy.

I do like Zack…very sweet, although quite the shagger, isn’t he? Nancy, Whit, Lauren, Nic, Sam…now potentially Vic.

Dh read that Joel escapes juvie and goes after Vicki ( again) but I do think this is just more speculation tbh.

I couldn't believe the sheer gall of Joel saying he wasn't going to plead guilty because he didn't feel any guilt whatsoever 😯 He really thinks he's going to get off scot free here, doesn't he?

Joel isn’t moving on from being a vile Incel is he ;(
He is a good actor though.

That is interesting about the flash forward. And yet it's not, because the previous producer did it with the Six. The Six was a really good storyline (until the ending, which wasn't so much). Given how it's all currently going, this one will be a pale imitation.

Could be a whole year of guessing who the Max whisperer will marry. My money's on Yolanda at this point anything can happen.

Sounds about right 😂

Of all the supposedly shocking things that are currently happening on the square, I’m most shocked that Kathy actually used a key!
A historical moment 😄

Speaking of keys. The Vic now has an alarm on the barrel store, but no CCTV, I mean why would you do the obvious, absolutely not. But why wasn't the door locked!

Max: possibly marrying Linda or Stacey! (Although can Linda get married when Mick is only missing?? )
I can’t believe that Kathy didn’t even mention the door being broken into and glass everywhere. Who will be paying for that repair?
Why didn’t they ask Jean about the paint splashes on that earring ?
As for moody Jasmine and Oscar 🙄
Why is Antnee the only GP there ?
Why Isn’t the surgery alarmed ?
I do feel the writers really are taking the mickey ( out of the viewers , me included!)

Alfie seemed a bit anti cctv. Maybe he thought the alarm was enough ? Didn’t want the expense ?
Who leaves their jewellery laying around like that ? I know Vicki is a bit flaky, but it was so conveniently just there wasn’t it ! I swear, the writing and storylines are definitely getting worse. I am hoping the flash forwards will be better, but seems risky doing a year in advance , I mean Sharon has had a lot of time off and that seems unexpected, so they are chancing their arm that people won’t need time off etc.

Hark at Zoe and her charity shop comment to Kathy, the cheeky mare.
We haven't forgotten about those awful jumpers Zo!

Kathy is turning into a more glamorous Miss Marple these days walking in on people. She isn’t into charity shop clothes, she always looks ok to me even if she is.
I wish that Anna and Freddie take Jasmine with them to Australia, she winds me up more than Zoe does!
All the sneering she does and face pulling. Awful girl

I haven't watched today's episode yet.
But re Linda/Mick, he has been certified as 'presumed dead'. So I guess she can marry whoever she likes. Hopefully not Max!!

There is some kind of seven year rule over missing people I thought around their affairs and money and things , but maybe Linda can marry again ? I don’t know really. Hopefully she isn’t going to marry Max though , I have a hunch it’s Stacey ,it may send Jean into a spin !
