For Nish fans, that episode was a real treat! I practically jumped off the sofa in excitement 😂never ever thought we'd see him again!

NowNumber5 · 08/01/2026 23:24

In the same vein, let's not forget what Jasmine's adoptive mum said of her - that she's dangerous.
Think she's definitely the one who did for Antnee, and now Kat's on some wild goose chase in Corfu looking for Chrissie!

mumofoneAloneandwell · 08/01/2026 23:56

Did Alfie try calling his cousin Jake to ask for Chrisdie’s location ? 🤷‍♀️

murasaki · 09/01/2026 00:04

Does Alfie even know Jake is with Chrissie these days?

mumofoneAloneandwell · 09/01/2026 00:11

I dunno tbh - Chrissie didnt seem to mention him, I would like to see them together if she’s coming back full time

foxlover47 · 09/01/2026 00:18

Loved seeing Nish back
agree about Antnee , when he exposed Harvey I watched it back a few times for the pure drama of it 🤣🤣
when will Myson be arriving

SnowFrogJelly · 09/01/2026 01:19

More Nish please! I’ve missed him..

the80sweregreat · 09/01/2026 06:27

When Jasmine is nice, she seems genuine.
I don’t think that Lauren has told Oscar what the adopted mum said to her and Cindy doesn’t care enough to mention it. They have both forgotten.
I feel one of them should tell Kat though..
Maybe the incident with Charli next week will make Lily suspicious ( and definitely annoyed she forgot to put the monitor on) and it’ll be a case of is Jasmine bad , or just forgetful or something else going on. Hopefully she may get caught out for murder and soon be written out , but it’s all very weird.

Someone on Reddit has spotted a casting call for a January-born baby to film in Elstree from February. Must have one White parent, and one of African/Caribbean descent.

the80sweregreat · 09/01/2026 08:41

Highbury, might be for Nicolas baby then. That is due april i think I and they film six weeks in advance.

the80sweregreat · 09/01/2026 08:42

I read that Nic loses the baby , but there is a lot of fake news around on the internet with soaps

HighburyHope · 09/01/2026 08:58

Yes I think it must be Nicola’s baby. Will keep an eye out for one which could be for Penny and Vinny (Pinny?) Smile

Shellingbynight · 09/01/2026 08:59

I never thought I'd be glad to see Nish again, he had got so panto by the end. But he was a good villain in the earlier days.

I agree with PP that there is presumably a reason Jasmine was given such a bad review by her adoptive mother. I think Kat is on a wild goose chase with Chrissie.

the80sweregreat · 09/01/2026 09:10

I don’t think that the Vinny actor can deal with a big storyline around a pregnancy, but I may be surprised! He has been in it a while, but never that involved with anything that big , a bit part most of the time lately.

the80sweregreat · 09/01/2026 09:21

I doubt Kat will find anything out. Hotels won’t give up information easily and she has probably moved on to a different island altogether by now!
Kat may have had more luck trying interpol , but probably the police have to do that and they think Zoe has done it , so not really chasing up the Chrissie angle at all.
Is zoe pleading not guilty? It’s all been left hanging hasn’t it.

the80sweregreat · 09/01/2026 09:24

Pinny ! Love this.
Penny will need specialist care being in a wheelchair, it won’t be an easy pregnancy for her.

the80sweregreat · 09/01/2026 09:26

Yes, Antnee with Howie exposing how he was a thief was good.
Kim made me laugh saying to honey she didn’t use their salon for leg waxing ; the place is hardly open and kim and Dee never there , no wonder she thought they had shut because of Antnee dying ..

gingercat02 · 09/01/2026 11:21

I was actually shocked at Ravi attacking Nugget. I know he thought it was Nish and they didn't actually show it but it was disturbing none the less!
It's a good storyline for change 👌

thisoldcity · 09/01/2026 11:28

@gingercat02 I agree, it was a very upsetting storyline, especially given that we know Nugget already had health problems. I liked the way he was earlier in the episode, where he just listened to Nicola's speech about his evil dad and then said not to treat him like a child. It was as if he saw straight through her, which was refreshing. The teens in EE are often much more clear-sighted than the adults.

Iwishihadarivericouldskateawayon · 09/01/2026 11:33

I agree (as awful as it is) the actual storyline, and delivery were good. No one guessed Nish would return, it's amazing it wasn't leaked

the80sweregreat · 09/01/2026 11:49

It was amazing that they kept Nish a secret.
It was well done, but sad he has beaten up his own son :( it is shocking even by soap standards.

Iwishihadarivericouldskateawayon · 09/01/2026 11:58

Yes it is shocking, that's why no one guessed it. I'm pleased they didn't show the attack, nor Nugget's body when Vinny found him. I think that would have been a step too far.

Shellingbynight · 09/01/2026 12:16

Yes I agree it was well done. I think the reason I still like Ravi despite his misdeeds is because the actor is very compelling and complex, not a one note villain like some.

I see he confesses to Priya. But I thought the point about being spiked is that you remember nothing of what happened afterwards? My ex was spiked (long after he became my ex!) and the reason he realised he was spiked was because he remembered nothing after having one drink at a do, and then being at home considerably later.

VivienneDelacroix · 09/01/2026 16:25

I guess it depends what you've been spiked with. Maybe?

If I was Navin Chowdhry's agent I'd have demanded a large fee for that appearance. He's not that long been killed off and they want him back for an episode? Cheek of it.

With returnees from further back, like Pat and Barry, I'm sure it feels like less of a cheek and more just a fun day of seeing old colleagues.

Has Navin been in much since he left? He's a bit old for Ghost Story 2:22 which seems to be the standard gap-filler after leaving a soap!

Good to see him though. He slipped straight back in to Nish.

Most ex Eastenders seem to end up in Waterloo Road
