Max and Linda was a quick on /off whole max is now shagging Cindy

But who will he marry on NYD ?

Past post says mummy Mitchell had a few notches so is George def the dad ?

Still no baby for Suki and Eve

But there is a baby via Penny and Vinny tho is the baby really Harry’s ……

We know now Jasmine and Josh are twins via Zoe and Anthony who was killed by Janine

Oscar has slept with the both ans with one of them NYD. I’m saying Josh

Ian is being chased by Bea

Vicky is snogging/shagging her brother from another mother 😂

But meanwhile declaring she loves Ross - sure she won’t marry him

Shazza kindly said they didn’t need to pay the £50k back - coz she has Phil’s money tree as well

Kat and Alfie run the pub but seems to forget it was Stacey’s money so she’s not getting her £100k back

Nigel is in a care home and Likely to die soon

Jay made someone else preg and may come back with new head

We know from NYD that Lauren is being a naughty girl. But with who ? Hopefully not mark

Jack and Ravi are still undercover /grass

Phil. Havnt seen a lot of him recently

Think that’s its but do add if I’ve forgotten anything

They all have to run a business don’t they!
I get Ian and Kathy doing it as been doing this for many years , but not George in the current climate. It’s too risky nowadays.

@the80sweregreat Well it should be but someone always finds a spare £100k down the back of the sofa. Changing the subject; I think the Max/Cindy thing is a red herring. I’m wondering if Stacey is coming back and he’s marrying her.

Now that’s quite a good point

bride may not be one of the 4 we saw

Blondeshavemorefun · 10/05/2026 16:44

Phil will sort out any issues. He’s always giving away £30/50k

Yeah, but how will she explain it to the prison people? Surely they'd do some kind of check on them?

I think the guy Nicola was talking to was his probation officer? Not sure how it all works tbh. If she’s the only person who has come forward then maybe Eddie will just be signed off into her care but I don’t know

It's just because they said he can't live with George even if he wanted to, something to do with the case and him being the main witness (or something)

bea is crazy tho how did she afford to pay to bribe voters for Ian

So, I'm currently rewatching the NYD episode and now have some additional thoughts about it, now that storylines are progressing....

  • I don't believe the pregnant person is someone Max is having an affair with. His wedding suit was literally hanging up in the same bedroom. And the scan was on the bedside table. All seems a bit cosy for an "other woman" to me. Someone he's protecting, eg Priya from Ravi?
When she's in the shower, he shouts that the police are here - as if neither of them are actually surprised.
  • Lauren and Oscar are clearly unimpressed with Max, and are going to the wedding grudgingly, after "what he's done." Peter is NOT going, and Max is apparently lucky that Peter "didn't murder him," so Max has presumably done something awful to Cindy, hence ruling her out?? Or maybe Cindy forgave him (or at least pretended to) and is going through with it anyway.
  • We know that Denise and Jack are having a rocky patch, as she "stormed off". Jack is staring at a wedding ring, but could this be the one from marriage to Ronnie, and he's just being wistful (as they were married on NYD too)?
  • Lauren says that Jack has to "sort this out", as he has Ethan to look after. So, I'm thinking that Penny is in hospital or something, as opposed to dead, otherwise she'd have been a bit more sympathetic and caring. And I don't think the wedding would be happening if Penny had died? Her wording suggests he's facing problems, as opposed to grieving.
  • Actually, the baby looked really tiny, so am I mad in thinking it's not Penny's baby at all?? Didn't she conceive last Hogmanay or am I misremembering? Could someone else eg Amy be pregnant?
  • Lauren says to him, "Dad is not worth the heartache." Jack talks about his best man "replacement", ie seems he was the best man and cancelled. What has Max done to give Jack heartache? And why is Oscar not best man?
  • Would Ian be best man if it were Cindy? And if Peter wasn't even attending? Could Ian and Elaine be together by then and the bride is Linda?
  • Kathy asks Ian why he's best man "after what he did, everything that went down...? You and him...?" Is this referring to Lucy and Steven or something more recent?
  • "mistakes were made" says Max. Lauren says, "then why can't your brother look you in the eye?"
  • After Max is arrested, Jack says he won't help and that he's sick of him, as his life is one big game of "kiss, marry, kill". Jack is clearly fuming at Max. Could Stacey be the bride??
  • Oscar points out that if it wasn't for Max, Ethan and Jimmy wouldn't be alive.
  • Nicola has fallen out with Chelsea. And something has happened to her ankle.
  • why does Ian ask Jack to phone the bride to tell her?
  • Hang on, could there be two weddings???
the80sweregreat · 12/05/2026 15:29

I still think the baby is Penny’s one and they have all found out that Harry is the baby’s dad and that’s why Suki isn’t caring for him. She would be the ideal person with Eve unless they have a foster child by then and can’t do it ( maybe )
The pregnant lady must know that Max is getting married. Seems the whole square knows and are going ( Peter isn’t , but most of them are it seems)
Whoever she is she knows max. Might even be a new character? It is a mystery.
Gun person could be Ravi if the woman in bed is Priya.
Could be anyone though. The NYD episode didn’t tell us much really, but we know who mark is now ! ( green jacket man NYD )

Yes re the baby. But was it Hogmanay they slept together? In which case, the due date would be Sept, but the baby looked younger than that to me.

Exactly, the pg woman knows he's getting married.

Lol thanks!

Another thought, the Vic window is being boarded up that morning, so something must have happened either in the pub during the Hogmanay party, or outside on the Square which resulted in the window being broken. The Vic didn't seem to be damaged inside, though, so something happened on the Sq?

Yep. Presumably in the same incident. But maybe not 😭😅

Haha, just musings really 🤣
I did post a while back, when i watched it for the second time, but i did notice more today, on 3rd watch. Eg i hadn't previously picked up on Jack's fury and disgust at Max.
So, wondering why he's personally and particularly offended on this occasion. I don't think Denise would get involved with Max, but it does seem to be personal to Jack.

I forgot too, D's phone buzzing, and Libby being back. Libby looked at the phone and eye-rolled, and said "Look who it is."

D seemed to have very "bridal" shoes, so possibly mother of the bride? Might also explain Jack's fury, that Max goes after all of Jack's exes.

Blonds. Chelsea is seen faffing about with a vail NYD and is one of the brides ( it’s made to look that way anyway )
Might be a red herring of course, but i wouidnt rule it out entirely. Max likes a younger pretty woman.
