Nobody can be happy or have friends for long on EE!

Harry seems rather immature. I can’t imagine him as a dad tbh. I hope it’s wrong and he isn’t the dad, but it looks like he may be ( going by spoilers online )

People used to receive presents when they became engaged, but not hampers. Maybe it’s a new thing!

I thought hampers was an odd thing 80s!

Going by the dates it doesn't seem as if the baby could be Vinny's, so it must be Harry's. I agree he is very immature, also very volatile. I don't care much about any of the four of them unfortunately!

Is Jasmine pleading guilty just to get back at Zoe or something. It’s like she’s saying Zoe let me down so I’ll show her by pleading guilty. Rather odd.

I’m finding Josh and his mum as annoying as Jasmine. Cant we just conclude this storyline now? They could all go and live happily ever after in Spain or something. I’m willing the black taxi of doom to turn up soon…

I thought Jasmine's message to Zoe was going to be something about Josh!

I am glad that Zoe has finally met myson, but it’s hardly a big reunion as they have on ‘ long lost family’ , more ‘ oh well.. , such is life’ attitude, but at least Josh is being truthful I suppose.

I read that Vicki helps Zac out with some money and Mark gets the wrong idea when he sees them together At least they are addressing the fact that Zac is low on cash, that is usually something that isn’t mentioned much. He has child support to pay and rent and Barney living there too! Maybe he should ask Nicola for some money towards Barney’s keep ? She is his mum

I thought Jasmine decided to plead guilty for the drama. To take the attention away from Josh.

I don't understand how Vicki and Ross suddenly have money to offer Zack and for Ross to have bought a van?!?

They still haven't paid Sharon off for the money they borrowed off her!

Speaking of which, where is Sharon?!? I feel like she's been missing for about a year now ffs.

It is a mystery where Ross has the money for a new van. He was working shifts before Christmas and didn’t want one job as it was too much for him!
Vicki is only working in the cafe , she could earn more as an accountant but doesn’t want to atm it seems.
They must be living rent free in Sharon’s place.

The money Vicki owes Sharon has been forgotten about I suppose !

Good point how does Ross have that kind of money. He is another one with a magic money tree.

Past caring about Josh, Jasmine and what who done or didn't do.

Bea always seems to be shuffling about and hunched over. She's very strange and RA is better than this.

Maybe Bea will go on a huge killing spree and all the ones im not keen on will die or be injured and have to go to Bali or Florida or Manchester to get over it all!
She is a candidate to be the one with the gun NYD, but I imagine she’ll be gone before then ..

Suppose if Harry is the dad it explains why the baby is with a whisky drinking jack and not desperate for a baby suki on New Year’s Day, but then it just seems mad that penny would miss a pregnancy for so long, I know it happens but 🤷‍♀️

Oscar was absolutely fantastic again loved the scene with Cindy

The scene with Oscar and Cindy was great. He even enlivened the scene with Pet-ah at the stall.

Remember Sonia not knowing she was pregnant until she gave birth?! But yes it does seem odd Penny would miss being pregnant, suddenly realise and assume it was Vinny's.

I really wanted this to be a storyline about a mum with disabilities and the challenges they face not a Jeremy Kyle type thing

The menopause story with Honey is boring me stiff already. Also, when a proper actor joins the cast (like Josh’s mum, forgotten her name) it shows up all the crap acting (Zoe).

I read that Bea starts trying to poison Honey. No idea if true.

I liked Honey's speech when talking to Billy, but it was a bit weird her talking about feeling 'old' when she was staring at Billy who looks like her dad.

I know this has been mentioned before but Nicola gives birth prematurely next month. I can't work out how prem?

They are making it sound like new ground, but Chelsea had a prem baby (24 weeks).

They like a drama around a birth ( early, born in the Vic with Phil as the midwife, born when the roof caves in, born without the woman ( Sonia ) knowing she was pregnant , whose the daddy? stillborn and so on) but once the baby story has run its course and no longer relevant, the poor child is quickly placed in the kiddie cupboard for many years ( Jordon , Mica, Pearl, Jimmy , Louis to name a few ) or only rolled out for a brief slot ! ( we did see Louis who was diagnosed with a condition where he can’t do maths and numbers that well a few years ago now , but sounded a bit of an ‘egg head ‘ now and clearly doing well , bless him!)
Poor kids get a bit of a rum deal on EE !!
