Yes she's treating George like muck (as predicted).
I can't help thinking that baby isn't going to arrive. Maybe losing the baby will be her 'punishment' for all her misdeeds, although in the flashforward she didn't exactly seem crushed!

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 16:41

No, during the flash forwards Nicola seemed alright didn’t she.

bullying is awful obviously but I wonder if Bea is over exaggerating it? Like those girls used to giggle at her or something? Didn’t Linda say something like Bea was always hanging about with teachers, then Bea confirmed it? So the whole teachers pet thing? But could it be more sinister, Bea then back to my earlier point takes revenge

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 17:29

Bea mentioned that Linda and her friends placed a tampon outside a hall and said it was hers and she stayed off school for over two weeks.
Whatever happened was horrible, I do believe she’ll try to get revenge on Linda somehow as she can’t move on from what happened. Which is difficult for her, but she should have asked for some help long before now ( maybe some therapy ?)

Maybe another ‘ pink lady’ friend of Linda’s will appear soon .. one that Max does like! .

Shellingbynight · 13/01/2026 17:58

Bea is probably inventing most of it! I don't believe she is traumatised, she's just a chancer.

Ben Wadey said that Bea's storyline makes him laugh and cry "and is really really fun". Unfortunately I find Bea as funny as bowl of cold sick!

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 18:08

I don’t find Bea funny. Is she really meant to be?.

She seems as if she needs some professional help tbh and im not being horrible, but she is obviously concerned about her past and being bullied.

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 18:09

Linda has confirmed that the bullying happened though! She remembers it all!
It is hard to know what’s going on with her though and a survey on Facebook today was interesting, not many people seem to like her !

storminabuttercup · 13/01/2026 18:20

Im not keen on Bea and don’t find her funny. she’s got MH issues which I can’t laugh at, that’s kind of why I didn’t love Jean and her miss Marple thing as although it was funny in some bits we also know it was her spiralling which makes me sad, I like Jean though she’s infuriating but warm and kind at times, I think the actor plays the part very well

Shellingbynight · 13/01/2026 18:21

80s I'm not sure she does really. She is taking Bea's word for a lot of it. Bea kept saying 'you didn't do it but you didn't stop it either' like Linda is supposed to be her mum.
It unusual to be bullied by girls 3 years younger than you.

Bea is very obviously a massive drama queen.

I agree, it’s the actress not the character that isn’t fitting in.

She's acting as if she's in an episode of League of Gentlemen.

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 19:05

E ‘ laine has warned Linda that she can’t fix Bea!
linda is just feeling guilty I suppose.
I didn’t find the Jean Miss marple thing funny either. Stacey would have nipped that in the bud!

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 19:18

Agree that Jean is a brilliant actress.
Some of her scenes with Stacey over the years have been really good. One of the better ones in it.

Iwishihadarivericouldskateawayon · 13/01/2026 19:42

Nugget has to leave hospital because Sam needs his bed, she has her op next week

Stucknstoopit · 13/01/2026 19:47

Ravi comes in with The Full Meatloaf Package :

Stance. Stare. Hair.

jasmine still walking around like yul brynner in Westworld.

enjoyable little episode.

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 20:16

I bet that Priya follows him and stops him beating them up. It’s only a guess, but I can’t see him doing much damage really. Plus Nicola helps George try to get the business next week , so she can’t be injured!

storminabuttercup · 13/01/2026 20:37

Think Ravi has a cheek being pissed off he got spiked after what he let them do to Harry

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 20:43

I suppose Ravi feels bad that he beat up his own son causing a bleed on his brain! He isn’t thinking straight is he. Plus he did tell Oakie to let Harry go , but Oakie ignored him and carried on.
They are all as bad as each other arn’t they! Nicola started all this as well. Trouble is it’s been dragged on so long the actual reasons this is all going on is becoming a bit vague isn’t it ! Lol

Shellingbynight · 13/01/2026 21:07

I think what will stop Ravi is Nicola yelling that she's pregnant. He's not actually going to hit anyone. Although Nicola could hardly complain if he did, she did it herself to Zack and he hadn't done anything other than be Barney's dad.

gingercat02 · 13/01/2026 21:14

I think Bea could be a good character, she'll mix it up a bit with her "fantasies" It's difficult with a well known personality like Ronnie Ancona, to see her as anyone else.
Ravi looked properly evil at the end tonight.
I know lots aren't keen but I think things are looking up at after the dire storylines of the last couple of years.

the80sweregreat · 13/01/2026 21:30

It’s definitely better than the Zoe story , but that is all back next week and Kat is back too.

SnowFrogJelly · 14/01/2026 01:04

I’m not warning to Bea either..

the80sweregreat · 14/01/2026 06:36

The poll they had on Facebook EE pages was very anti Bea. A few positive, but overwhelming negative.

the80sweregreat · 14/01/2026 06:42

On social media it was a case of
Bexit ‘ . ( unlike Oscar who many like a lot)

foxlover47 · 14/01/2026 07:41

Nicola acting like she can manage all by herself yet called George to let him know what was happening when Ravi was rampaging ..
imagine if Priya were to post on here , my partner attacked my
son when he was out of it spiked on drugs ,I’m supporting him …
LTB 🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is what’s really annoying me, it’s totally out of character for Priya to act like this. She was fuming when she found out about the drugs etc yet he actually beats him up and she’s acting like he left the loo seat up. They do it a lot, I know it’s often for plot reasons but on the new year episode when Oscar was struggling with his tie, Kathy would have just gone ‘come ‘ere’ and done it for him but didn’t so the Oscar and Patrick thing could happen such a small thing but it drives me bonkers
