So sorry to all of those going through health issues with their loved ones

I know we don’t see Jordan much but the way Chelsea was acting seemed out of character, although so did Zac hanging about at the wedding, but suppose he needed to try it on with Chelsea so she could send Jordan off

Ian would surely have got out to check for damage especially as he’d just had it valeted, of course the cone will give him away

Denise was amazing as was Yolande

Harvey is obviously going to have food poisoning from the prawns

I agree Easties I think Eddie will be killed. That will be George's 'things changed forever'. Why don't they send him back to jail, it would be a better punishment.

But George and Ian look smug and happy on NYD, and Chelsea looks okay. It seems like only Denise has genuinely had a lifechanging day.

And I agree Chelsea was behaving very out of character. She is not usually someone with a short fuse for no particular reason.

I'm watching today's and Harvey has already chundered.🤮

Maybe George looks smug on NYD because he has killed Eddie😂

Old head Chelsea wasn’t very nice and this new one was a manipulative drug dealer when she first arrived. She only became nicer after the Grey business.

Sorry to jump back to older episodes but I just binge watched the last 2 weeks and I can’t believe Whitney left Dolly with a man she has been seeing for one month.

Easties, George is such a saint I don't think he'd get over killing Eddie! (Did Whit say one month, I don't remember that.)

I've watched today's and I'm afraid I was a bit bored. It was obvious where it was all going so I was just waiting for it to get there.

Poor acting from Josh today. Kudos to Gillian for Drunk Kathy though, she is so believable.

Whitney mentioned Britney briefly and she is 16 now I think, so maybe she left Dolly with her as it was half term and not at college. I would like to think she wouldn’t have left her with Ruben, but I can’t remember if she said that she did?
Today’s one was bitty.
I hope that Ian reminds Jack that he caused Penny to be in a wheelchair. None of them are innocent of past misdemeanors. However , I feel sorry for Jordon who everyone else thought was alright. Josh did leave him with his mum, his nothing to feel bad about really , but it’ll be the blame game. Ian checked the car and said it was a bin. At least they have cctv this time to see what happened, but still horrible all round. Poor boy.

I don’t think that anyone wouid carry on with a party after that.
Will Lauren fall for the persistent Mark ? Probably , but I wished he’d leave her alone really. He is being very stalker ish.

I'm enjoying the wedding episodes, and it makes a change to see some celebration on the square - though of course this has to immediately be balanced up with sad storylines. I especially don't like the 'punishment' sort of storylines where eg. mum is enjoying herself and then speaks roughly to her child who then goes off and gets run over. It's like the writers are judging Chelsea for having fun (okay, she was harsh with Jordan, but still...)

I feel I'm alone in this, but I'm a bit sick of Yolande being the one that everyone confides in. I know she is good at this, but it would make a change if someone else did it for once. I suppose she shows how someone should react, when it might be too out of character for others to do that? I'm just a bit tired of her sympathetic face I think!

Haven’t watched today’s yet, but I found yesterdays episode harrowing. It’s all a bit much!

Poor Denise has:
-almost been been murdered by two violent exes + kidnapped by the evil pastor
-killed (and buried!) Keanu
-been sectioned
-had a kid at 50 (with Phil!) and had him adopted…then got him back
-been so broke she was eating out of bins
-had a drink problem…

…for the love of God give the woman a break!

Love the actress who plays Yolande. She is fantastic. I wish I had an aunty like Yolande😍

Agree Chelsea was acting totally out of character yesterday.

I thought we might have a bit of a fun episode at least when Harvey threatened to bang out his old acid house moves and Drunk Kathy started up again 😆…but the doof doof yesterday was shocking. 😢

Yolande is good in a crisis , but it is always her that they go to.
Plus she guessed that Dee wasn’t herself and nobody else did, so there was that.
Where are Mika and Pearl whilst Howie and Kim are enjoying themselves and sitting in what looked like a portacabin ? He is forgiven then!
Chelsea is partly to blame , not Josh. He thought she had taken over. I know children run off though and it was busy.
I heard ‘ come on Eileen ‘ too often in the 80s!
It does have questionable lyrics !!

It appears Jordan survives.
I'm away so not watched any episodes this week, will catch up over the weekend.

I can’t get invested in this Ian thing. He won’t be going to jail and soaps generally don’t (indirectly) give kids permanent physical damage after they’ve been in accidents. Jordan will be fine in a month or two.

Maybe that’s why Kathy was questioning why Ian was best man NYD? ..
Cindy didn’t look happy at Max’s drunken performance did she ! Lol
Using Howie’s engagement ring too. How low can you go ?
Why they all go to weddings is a mystery as it’s always a disaster isn’t it.

Soap characters go through the mill don’t they.
Denise has had her fair share of it and it’ll be a big one now looming as well. I hope the others are supportive, I am sure they will be of course.
I didn’t see Denzil there today. At least the twins story is on the back burner for now and Zoe has cleared off.
Just waiting for the steamy affair between Lauren and mark. Maybe Max will expose her like she did with him next year , after he rescues her and Oscar !

The twins are featured next week. Oscar is seen kissing Josh by Kat, the article I read said we are all enjoying the love triangle, I'm not sure who the we is that they are referring.

The love triangle is boring , it’ll bound to end up in tears and with Kat finding out next week, it’ll become a big secret everyone knows apart from Zoe and Jasmine! I just hope it doesn’t drag on , but it doesn’t look promising. Why they do these things on the square is baffling too. Just too many people earwigging and noticing. You would think people would learn.

I agree South, the Jordan thing is hard to get invested in because it's pretty obvious he will be (more or less) okay. It seems like a plot device to delay Denise's treatment, and throw things in the air temporarily for Ian.

I think Max is going to have an almighty hangover and regret his antics. Cindy really did not look as if she was going to say yes anyway!

I imagine Oscar is his father's son and likes risk taking. He certainly is living close the edge at the moment!

Zoe is completely invisible now. She didn't go to the wedding, and Kat has taken over all the stuff you'd think Zoe would be doing in terms of Jasmine and MySon.

Maybe the Zoe actress is having a little break after months of ‘ my son , my cat ‘.
Kat and Alfie are far more credible as the twins grand parents anyway. Kat is used to family affairs and the dramas after all! She tells Oscar to avoid Josh , but we know that won’t happen.

Yes that's another thing - where is that cat!
It is a strange time for Zoe to be absent, although I am not complaining!

The cat is probably stuck in a pipe again , poor thing.
Where are Kats twins and Tommy too ?
Mika and Pearl ? Jimmy and Louie ?
Chelsea takes her eye off her one child for a minute and he ends up with a spinal injury!
its a wonder she recognized him , she hasn’t seen him for ages as it is.
Felt a bit sorry for Ian, but maybe not drinking ever and then driving is a better idea. I can see that being brought in as law one day tbh.

I thought I briefly saw Zoe at the wedding?

I didn't see her but I could have missed her.
But she has had nothing for weeks, exactly at the time when she should be in the foreground because of Josh and Jasmine. All very odd.

In fact, isn’t this Zoe? I might be mistaken due to rubbish eyesight.

The end made that episode. Howie and a
Kim will be livid. Presumably Cindy says yes and she is the NYD bride. Priya is probably the pregnant woman, up duffed by a fleeing Ravi last week.
This week is the upside down episodes, so we have had Dee and Ian, who else was in the trailer?
I'm a bit bored of people getting tragically injured and making a full recovery (I assume Jordan will have spinal surgery and be kicking a football round the kiddy cupboard next week)
I wouldn't mind Squeal Beale goin'daan mind.

Is that not Lily?

Yes, that's Lily. We saw her a couple of times.
