Chrissie had no idea what Antnee's beef with Zoe was, or that he was going to go upstairs and start kicking off. So killing him must have been unplanned. We are supposed to believe she saw him go in, followed, watched the scene unfold and then killed him so everyone would think it was Zoe? And within a few minutes Kat has worked it out. It's like an episode of Scooby Doo.

cramptramp · 26/12/2025 13:04

Just watched yesterday’s and thoroughly enjoyed them. Chrissie always did have fabulous hair. But I did wonder why we didn’t see a convoy of Vespas and Mods turn up to deliver the dinners.
Also, do Cindy and Max really not know each other? Or were they just pretending?

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 13:13

Oh well, at least Dr evil is no more.
Maybe they should bring back the nice Doctor they had once , Al Jenkins. He was ok , but not in it long

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 13:15

No, Cindy and Max don’t know each other.
Even when Ian shows up today, he doesn’t notice max there ( getting dressed!)
Jimmy’s christening will be interesting then.

Shellingbynight · 26/12/2025 13:24

I did like Max apologising for the 980th time for being a crap dad, Oscar and Lauren are very good together. Max will have to dole out yet more apologies again after he kicks off at the christening, at least that should be eventful!

I don't suppose there is any hope of Dr Evil actually dying of a brain haemmorage after hitting his head, and not actually being murdered at all. I'm just thinking of the police officer Emma Summerhayes who died that way after a head injury (Emma was the family liaison officer in the Lucy storyline, and she was shagging Max, I think he's shagged every female on the square!)

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 26/12/2025 13:34

When Max said to Cindy they were so alike it was "like looking in a mirror" ... way to insult this poor woman Grin

I reckon it is Jasmin who killed Antnee , her reaction outside of McClunkeys was quite expressive ( though she made sure to get in the bit about her screaming out loud like Kat does when stressed )
Kat has put 2+2 together and come up with 5 . Jasmin will be happy to let her blame Chrissie . Hopefully Jasmin will have to go into Witness Protection .

Jimmys Christening will be interesting ...........

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 26/12/2025 13:38

I cannot abide watching someone talking with a toothpick/cocktail stick in their mouth , or a pen or similar.
Oddly enough, a cigarette and talking doesn't bother me , even a lit one . Though Max was going overboard today with his ciggie clamped in his mouth

If Oscar had eaten the maraschino cherry and chewed on the cocktail stick I'd have hurled .

Shellingbynight · 26/12/2025 13:41

It is really hard to know what is going on with Jasmine because (a) the storylining is so bad and (b) the acting is so bad. I am never sure what she is trying to portray, 90% of it is staring blankly into the distance.

Alucard55 · 26/12/2025 13:50

Haven't seen today's so I've no idea what you're all talking about😂 but the Chrissie connection is absolute nonsense. It's like they were this how can we make this more unbelievable and shite.

Drunk Kathy "Stacey" 😂😂😂😂😂😂

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 26/12/2025 13:50

Staring and rolling her eyes with the odd smirk .
Acting Lesson Page 1 .

Shellingbynight · 26/12/2025 14:27

@Alucard55
Jasmine led Kat towards the idea it was Chrissie who killed Antnee. Kat told Jasmine Antnee was her dad. She was upset about about 20 seconds then went back to the usual blankness.

(Yes Drunk Kathy was the best thing about that episode!)

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 15:16

It’s sad that Cindy / Max have so much history and will be snarling at each other soon enough , but they make a good couple. They have far more chemistry than Zicky. I know it’s not a high bar.
Ian will be smirking throughout that christening showdown ! ‘ I told you so ‘ 🙄
He won’t even buy a new top I bet.

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 15:17

Drunk Kathy was funny.

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 15:19

How much different this would have been with Sharon around. Nobody does angst as well as she does
Sam wasn’t too bad tbf.
They have to make the best of some duff scripts !

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 15:21

Max and his cigarettes! At least it wasn’t a vape I suppose.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 26/12/2025 15:21

Cindy and Max was inevitable .
He's fond of a blonde ( but anything with a pulse will suffice )

He had a thing with Lucy
Steven had a thing with Lauren and Abbie and was Baby Abbies dad ( or AJ as they now call her )
So they have the requisite history for an Eastenders affair .

Who will do the Funeral? Jay is out of town .
Billy and Callum ?

NowNumber5 · 26/12/2025 15:25

Max and Cindy (Mindy?! Lol) should get together, but as they're both footloose and fancy free, the frisson won't be there!
And that's what they both thrive on - cheap thrills.

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 15:41

It’s sad that Partick has found happiness with Yolande and got married this year around the containers and now it’s a funeral ;(
Not sure who runs the parlour now , it was Billy before Jay I think , but I can’t remember who owns it now and who did Martin’s one ? Ruby took ages sorting that out!

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 15:42

Mindy ! Lol.
When they clock each other around the font , it’ll be a right old ding dong ! At least it may go on location
They like to get out the square at new years

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 15:47

I can see Nicola with Max , but the whole pregnancy thing with Cindy’s ex may scupper any of that.
Unless she loses the baby :(
I love Barney and Zack as a father and son outfit , they seem to get on well.
Oscar just blows it out the park really. He really has been a find.

Eastie77Returns · 26/12/2025 10:03

RIP Dr Evil. What will Albert Square do without their wonderful GP who did the sum total of fuck all work when he was alive. My money would be on Chrissy as his killer but can’t work out a motive.

And does this mean we’ll never find out who he was talking to when he called someone and said “don’t pick up if my dad calls..he can’t find out what we’ve done” or is that all forgotten now??

Exactly! What has Chrissie got to do with Zoe and Anthony? Why is she so obsessed with Zoe?

the80sweregreat · 26/12/2025 16:05

Chrissies Zoe obsession is because she gave up the twins. She lost a child in prison ( Jake’s baby) and is clearly deranged enough to give up her Christmas to torture her about it without knowing the facts or hearing them. Maybe 20 years inside being the top dog has made her invincible ( so she thinks )

NowNumber5 · 26/12/2025 16:17

I think Chrissie's bitterness towards Zoe stems from the fact that Den got Zoe pregnant (in order for her to "trap" Dennis, who Den wanted to stay away from his Princess, Shazza) whilst he supposedly did not want a child with Chrissie .

HappyFace2025 · 26/12/2025 16:17

@the80sweregreat sounds like the scriptwriters and producers are dragging the bottom out of the barrel! I thought #Emmerdale was bad enough with two murderers on the loose over Xmas!

gingercat02 · 26/12/2025 16:32

Oh nasty Anthony was on the Strictly Christmas special. Bet he can't dance either!
