So max came back. Didnt obv see his identical daughter - annoyed everyone and left again till who knows when

As seems linda went for a weeks cruise and been away for 3mths but its fine as wont be fined or made to go to school with her youngest son

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

And now she is pregnant. So who is the daddy

Teddy has taken the blame of killing okie for Harry

Suki and Eve want to adopt but will get the adopted child soon

Meanwhile Ravi been a naughty boy too many times and now turning grass to keep out of prison

Meanwhile we still have jasmine and whatever she is up to. She has worked at the gay club now for weeks but still hasn’t given in her id or tax details

Is it something to do with Cindy ?

Lauren and Peter gone on the longest honeymoon

Howie still has the thousands he stole off Patrick

Kat and Alfie still have the pub but obv need to pay back Stacey £100k or at least give her a share of the profits

Will Zoe ever find her abandoned son ?

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

And now seems she has a crush on Zack - would shazza mind her little sis and brother getting it on ?

joel def wasn’t a nice boy and not sure how he can say he’s not guilty

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 out

Here’s my take. I reckon it’s Chelsea he’s marrying. That’s why Libby was there. Ethan could be the baby of Chelsea and Max, so Denise’s grandson and that’s why he’s at Jack’s. It was only Chelsea who looked like she was messing about with a wedding dress. Linda was just at the mirror doing her make up and it could have been any clothing in Cindy’s suit bag.

Chelsea has too much brains to marry a sex cheater

and don’t think she would have another baby / she never sees her current one.

hes in the kiddi cupboard

Ethan! I heard it as Aoife, which I thought was a bit fancy for the likely parental candidates. Eefan is much more like it.

the80sweregreat · 02/01/2026 12:58

I watch with subtitles as people mumble and it came up as Ethan.

the80sweregreat · 02/01/2026 12:59

Chelsea married and had a child with Gray ( I think she married him ?) so she isn’t the best judge of character and she was once a drug dealer herself too ( or took them ? Can’t remember, but she has a troubled past )

roasttattie · 02/01/2026 13:24

Old head Chelsea was in prison. Can't remember why though, perhaps credit card fraud or something.

roasttattie · 02/01/2026 13:25

New head Chelsea had a date with the vile married man who attacked Vicky so her bar is pretty low.

the80sweregreat · 02/01/2026 13:46

I thought old head Chelsea was done for drug dealing , but yes, she was in prison once. It’s strange how much I forget about some characters and not other ones though and it’s either hospital or prison they end up in isn’t it ! Lol

Upwiththisiwillnotput · 02/01/2026 14:14

I reckon the baby is Penny and Vinnie’s, they were getting close in the bar on NYE. Going to watch it again though and take notes 🤣

I think it has to be. Penny and Vinnie are such non event characters it was so weird for them to given focus on the NYW episode. I mentioned it to DH and DD I was so confused why they were even seen and thought it might just have been to give them a credit in the episode but there were no relevant scenes for them so they made that up. Now it definitely seems likely they are about to become central to this years episodes.

Upwiththisiwillnotput · 02/01/2026 14:19

Probably both going to meet a nasty end .. that’s why Jack is so depressed.

Catpiece · 02/01/2026 14:30

Chelsea hasn’t had a storyline since the nightclub crush. As PPs have said, she was silly enough to get involved with Gray. Let’s see but now the writers have got all year to get to that fast forward episode. Don’t think anyone would be very interested in Penny and Vinnie. Minor characters.

the80sweregreat · 02/01/2026 15:02

Nicola said that ‘ she’d rather eat glass ‘ than speak to Chelsea , so what is their beef ?

Upwiththisiwillnotput · 02/01/2026 15:14

Also, Patrick said to Oscar “you’re a Truman now”. Do you think he’s married Jasmine??

the80sweregreat · 02/01/2026 15:18

I hope that Oscar hasn’t married Jasmine :(

He said “with a Trueman”. Which is disappointing if it is Jasmine, as that must mean she stays.

I’d like to see more of Penny. Find her and Vinny an unlikely couple though, and would they write out the last of Suki’s children in another death/prison storyline? Not that I’d miss Vinny.

I do wonder why Ian kept saying “we’ve paid” regarding the wedding, never mind him being Max’s best man.

I don't get the idea Chelsea is savvy when it comes to men. She married Gray! She can't see past the money generally. When she Penny and Gina were in the cafe Chelsea said she didn't mind an old man.
I the baby being Penny's makes sense.

Catpiece · 02/01/2026 16:00

I hope Jasmine doesn’t stay. Hope Zoe goes again too. They’ve tried too hard with both characters and it hasn’t worked

When Lauren and Oscar are in the kitchen near the start ( after the song for Max is played) Lauren hints that Oscar is seeing more than one person ! The song he chose is ‘ caught in the middle with you’ and Lauren said to Oscar ‘ sounds like you ‘ and mentions ‘ snogging someone’s face off ‘ , so I think his having it away with two people !
The policewoman also says ‘ we have a problem’ after the bathroom door is opened up , I wonder if they are going into labour ? Or just the fact max got away?
I did hear a sigh at the bathroom door , they like a new years baby on EE
