EASTENDERS 78 - TV PACE NO SPOILERS

[Blondeshavemorefun]

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

Patrick asked Nicola how her ankle is. She shrugged it off and said it's fine.

Max is going to spend a lot of time sleeping around unless pregnant woman isn’t anything to do with him romantically! They will probably show him with all four women , but maybe leave
it vague if they sleep together or not! Just to add to the ‘ who is the bride’ puzzle.
She looked heavily pregnant , so should be conceiving in April of its due new years time , but it’s hard to tell. If she only sees him for a showdown or to show the scan photo , why is she staying there with him? Usually that would involve a row or ‘ im not the dad’ chat and thrown out in the cold! He obviously hasn’t done this.
The pregnant one must know his getting married too.

Max didn’t sleep with Zoe at all since his return or when he came back briefly that time Stacey left.
Maybe pregnant woman is Kat ? She likes a Branning too and even Max is better than Derek and her and Alfie have been on and off before!

I've rewatched, and taken notes. Here they are, if anyone wants a reminder -

• Window being boarded up in the Vic.
• gunman with leather gloves pulls up next to the Vic in a tatty white ban. No skin on show, so can't narrow it down.
• Pregnant woman in Max's bed.
• Definitely Max's flat, as his wedding suit is there, and there are photos of Max's kids in the living room.
• Lauren asks Oscar if "you know who" would still want to snog his face off, after the cheesy radio shout-out.
• Lauren says "after what he [Max] did, I thought the whole wedding would be off, but some people are clearly more forgiving than I am"
• Jack holding a (his?) wedding ring and downing a whisky.
• Front door was open, due to Denise storming off.
• Lauren says to Jack "You've got Ethan to take care of."
• She also says she knows today will be hard, and tells Jack that Max "is not worth the heartache."
• Ethan looks to be really tiny, a few weeks at most.
• Jack refers to Ian as his "replacement" as best man.
• Ian says he's "moved on" after everything that's happened with Max. Kathy says "Her too?" referring to bride, presumably. Ian says, "Not my problem."
• Police outside Max's flat say "Threat is imminent".
• Max tells Lauren that he knows what she's been doing.
• Oscar confirms that the flat is his dad's.
• Lauren says to Max that "even your own brother can't look you in the eye"
• Lauren receives a text saying "It's make your mind up time"
• Nicola and George together in the Vic. Nicola looking v svelte. Bandaged ankle. She says she hasn't spoken to Chelsea, as she'd "rather eat glass"
• Ian says he's worried about telling the bride re Max. He phones Jack. Jack asks if he has spoken to her, then says he'll call her.
• Linda, Chelsea, Cindy and Denise's phones all buzz.
• Chelsea is cleaning (?) a puffy underskirt, so could be bride or bridesmaid.
• Denise seems to have gone missing.
• Denise's phone is next to ivory satin shoes, and what looks like a lacy white dress.
• Libby doesn't seem to be a bridesmaid.
• Libby picks up D's ringing phone and says "look who it is"
• Gunman sends text saying "Lauren or Oscar. Choose." in caps

Kathy is wearing a very fancy sparkly top (or dress), and her hair is all pinned up

Thanks @Twonewcats Good breakdown of the episode. Looks like I’m way off the mark. 🤣 All very interesting isn’t it and only 52 weeks to wait for the big reveal although I’m sure we’ll have it all sewn up by then

Ahh, so despite her misgivings , Kathy may be ready for the wedding too. I didn’t notice what she was wearing , but she didn’t sound like she was going to go. If it’s a free bar she may go thinking about it ! .. lol

Twoonewithcats
Great work there! It was a fast moving episode and very confusing first time around. I did watch it again yesterday and didn’t realize that the green coat wearing man spoke!

Hmmm Cindy wasn't one of the women featured and she would be the link with Ian " not my problem"
Would be a complete turn about as she hates him 😂

She was shown very briefly unzipping a clothes bag with her hair up in a towel turban. She didn’t look happy though.

Facebook poster says:
The song on the radio was She's the One. The video to it is about ice skating. Stacey Slater Ice Skater ⛸️

Facebook also suggests the gloved hand belongs to Chrissy - the finger tapping is the same as when she was waiting for Jasmine in the car.

I did wonder at ‘
shes the one’ too! Stacey nearly slept with him
before she left for Brazil.

Max becomes embroiled with Ravi and the drugs gang and that involves Chrissie watts! That tapping the wheel looked menacing and she can get hold of guns.
It’s all pointing to this , I just hope that Max knows where his children are and takes off to find them.
This wedding won’t happen at all New Year’s Day will it !

Love this!
Max and Stacey !

Isn’t Kat 55/60

I know they like an older mum but …….

Claps and awards a rare gold star to @Twonewcats 🌟

ive rewatched as well.

I will say both are very lazy. In bed at 11am

preg lady is invited to their wedding an seem like she lives there as well as invite casually on side

plus who is this picture of - is that a clue to what preg person is

Yes, I would say Kat is definitely too old to have any more pregnancies now!

No, I was only musing about Kat. I forget she is getting on !

Oh the pic didnt load

Plus the police ask max who the preg lady is - so she can’t be from the regular lot on the square or they would know who she is

so the preg may be a red herring and not Max’s

plus I’m going for Cindy now as the bride

not Denise as with Jack. Or still living there and she’s not going to marry his brother

Patrick is drinking in pub chilling and doesn’t seem concerned max has been arrested so isn’t Chelsea

Linda deserves better tho I think they do have a thing and could be good if he poor be faithful ……

so going for Cindy now. And why Ian isn’t nice about her in his speech as she his ex

I still feel that it’s an Ian and Cindy set up. For killimg Steven and maybe for Lucy too ..
She looked pensive and he looked too smug.
Why be best man to a man you loath?
it’s too far fetched

Yes, I too thought Max was looking far too smug in the flat when he first got out of bed. Like the cat that had got the cream!

So you think Cindy as well then @the80sweregreat
