I wonder if we will watch the New Year’s Day episode as it was shown last year , or if that was just a trailer and it’ll be shown slightly differently ? By then, we should know who Max is marrying ( at least ) and how he knows Mark and why Pet ahh isn’t going to the wedding and so on.

We might get an extended episode and slot this episode in with some new material.

@70isaLimitNotaTarget yes all he needs to do is roll out ten versions of Phil and he's fine for the next month😆

They can't subject us to another 30 minutes of 'The Bride says' and 'who's going to tell The Bride' next time!

Not convinced by Vicki and Ross.
More on the house talk around. Even Vinny let Penny have the milk on the house yesterday!

Southeastdweller · 03/02/2026 09:06

I can’t take much more of Zicky. It’s been said a million times before, but they are completely unconvincing as a match. Thankfully this ‘love triangle’ crap doesn’t feature in next week’s stories.

Why the fuck is Ross wittering on about Vicky sleeping with (Zack the) stranger?

They were not together (or in the immortal words of Ross/Rachel - they were "on a break")

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 03/02/2026 09:15

Please please let Vicky get pregnant!

Bea and Honey getting drunk was funny. Silly Honey sending that email though.

It’ll come out in the end it was Zack, it always does. No one can keep a secret in the square.

Phil rolling his eyes in his black leather jacket
Phil doing that thing where he opens his mouth, thinks about speaking and closes it , in his blue shirt
Phil going all Uncooked Ham (red faced) and storming out -leather jacket again

Add these into any Phil Based Scene

He’s not the best actor is he?! Only a few different faces to show. Will Ross Kemp come if only for a cameo?

Shellingbynight · 03/02/2026 09:19

Ross and Vicki weren't on a break when she slept with Zack last week were they? They got back together a while ago, although you wouldn't know it because you hardly ever see them together.

Agreed with this. It was very unclear if they’d broken up or not and who was living where.

the80sweregreat · 03/02/2026 10:04

Ian saying that cheaters never change. The man who took Cindy back ( amongst other things he has done)
I know he was speaking from experience, but that made me smile.
However, he is probably right with Vicki! She’s bound to run into Zac a lot and they won’t be able to resist each other 🙄
Linda and max grow close next week, but it’s Louis who is bullying Ollie and he tries to keep it quiet.

the80sweregreat · 03/02/2026 10:16

To be fair , Honey knocked the send button on that email , so she’ll probably get the sack now.
.. Either that or Suki will reluctantly forgive as long as she doesn’t pursue anything over the fall. She probably will not want a tribunal.

NowNumber5 · 03/02/2026 11:51

As I said previously, I'm sure we're heading for a 'Who's the baby daddy' storyline with Vicki 🙄

Ah, come now, he was brilliant in the flashback scenes with his dad and the whole of his breakdown was very well done.

But apart from that he’s not great. In my opinion.

murasaki · 03/02/2026 13:52

True, he plays variations on an angry potato. Which is why it was a shocker to find he can actually act, he just doesn't most of the time!

Shellingbynight · 03/02/2026 14:13

I think Steve McFadden is a very good actor, but doesn't often get the chance to show it because he's doing 'run of the mill angry Phil'. When he gets the chance to show a different side to Phil, he's brilliant.

Shellingbynight · 03/02/2026 14:57

I've just watched today's episode.

Far too much Ross, Vicki, and Bea. And Linda probably should have kept her beak out.

I found the scenes with Vicki and Ross very unconvincing. They have no chemistry. And Ross is guaranteed to find out it was Zack.

I started off really liking Julie but I no longer have any sympathy for her, she's being vindictive and Nigel is paying the price.

NowNumber5 · 03/02/2026 15:28

Thanks @Shellingbynight
At this rate, we can expect Spencer to make an appearance too - timed for when Vicki is just about to say "I do" 😄

HighburyHope · 03/02/2026 15:30

Oh Vicki! It’s tricky
When Ross takes the mickey
By siding with Joel over you
But Zicki is icky
So don’t be so picky
Could Ian be the lover for you?

Shellingbynight · 03/02/2026 16:12

@NowNumber5 oh god not Spencer! He was the most godawful actor. As bad as jasmine!

Love this! We need more poems!!

Spencer was such a boring character but knowing what this current producer is like I agree he’ll probably come back. He won’t be played by the original actor because he’s now a lawyer:
