I’m telling you, EE needs a post-watershed prison spin off !

What was Alice Branning in prison for?

IIRC she was jailed for killing the gorgeous Micheal Moon but it was Janine that did it .

@NoisyBrain I’d forgotten about Harvey’s wrong ‘un son! Who was Alice Branning?!

I remember when there was a Free Dot Cotton campaign on social media Grin

On a totally different note, do you think they will bring Shirley back?

No...I don't think Shirley will.come back. But I did love that character!

storminabuttercup · 01/08/2026 07:53

i loved Ben sending advice via Cathy to Ian. Ben is probably loving the fact Ian is banged up.

to add to the list of those in prison, Denise’s ex? Lucas, brief comeback when the whole Ken storyline was on. He’s busy with DIP now though so can’t see him coming back.

Shellingbynight · 01/08/2026 08:33

@NoisyBrain yes that's right about Kheerat not wanting any visitors, Teddy said the same, which is handy for everyone who wants to move on and forget him.

And Bea is in jail now as well, and if we're lucky will never be mentioned again.

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 09:18

Lucas was gorgeous, but a complete sociopath and all the rest of it and gave Dee the runaround.

Eastie77Returns · 01/08/2026 10:14

Lucas was indeed the best looking of all Denise’s many husbands. He was originally very evil but did help save Chelsea from a drugs gang and Denise went to visit him for help when she was in the midst of her mental breakdown over Ken’s killing. I’m sure he saved Raymond from being knocked over or something. Maybe they’ll let him out on some technicality, would be fun to see him on the square.

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 10:28

Lucas wasn’t your average baddie was he.
I liked him and Michael moon. The thinking persons villains!

storminabuttercup · 01/08/2026 10:43

Didn’t Lucas go down so Chelsea didn’t?
I like the actor, wasn’t sure about him in death in paradise at first but I say that about them all, then love them!

Shellingbynight · 01/08/2026 11:01

Yes Lucas and Michael M were fabulous, very good villains.

I don't like Lucas actor in DIP, he is wasted there!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 01/08/2026 12:43

Micheal Moon was smooth , cannot imagine him breaking a sweat . And the whitest but slightly crooked teeth so patently his own not veneers .

Not a fan of Lucas , he was bad with no redeeming features . Nice looking but not a character I warmed to .

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 12:49

I was surprised when Denise went to see Lucas in prison over her involvement with Ken’s demise.
She obviously felt he could help her despite everything that had gone on previously.

Shellingbynight · 01/08/2026 13:29

80s Dee was on the verge of a breakdown wasn't she? Not really thinking straight!

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 13:32

No, true. Denise kept seeing Keanu as a ghost. He played a good ghost.

Shellingbynight · 01/08/2026 13:41

Oh yes, wasn't he in a wardrobe or something!?

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 14:11

We all thought that Keanu played a better ghost than he did as Keanu alive! Can’t recall a wardrobe, maybe he came across some of the kids they put in there! ..
At least they are starting to say where the children are sometimes. Although who Ivy was with the other day was a mystery.

Eastie77Returns · 01/08/2026 18:39

Speaking of Keanu, I can't help thinking Gray really looks like a younger version of Keanu Reeves!

The care of baby Ivy really is a mystery. Nicola is sometimes seen pushing her around but at other times she's in the bar/pub with George and no mention of who is looking after her. I The other day someone mentioned Barney was babysitting. Just odd considering she was premature and Nicola initially treated her like a china doll but now seems as if she's passed around to whoever is free!

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 18:42

I think that Gray looks like Keanu Reeves as well Eastie.
I also think Ricky is like a young tom hanks in Big ( not a mumsnet favorite that one ! lol)

Meredusoleil · 01/08/2026 20:07

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 18:42

Agree with both these comments 👏

VivienneDelacroix · 01/08/2026 21:26

Yes, I said to DH this week that Gray looks like Keanu (of the Reeves, not the Taylor variety).
Ricky looks exactly like my nephew, so I can't see past that.

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 21:35

Gray is handsome , but it’s sad he is playing the evil gray and just snarling at people and murdered people I liked as well , so I definitely don’t fancy him at all !
lol

Alucard55 · 01/08/2026 22:08

I think Ricky looks like he could be Jack and Jack's real life son.

the80sweregreat · 01/08/2026 22:09

Yes, some good casting with Ricky and Amy , who could easily pass as Roxy’s girl too.

Shellingbynight · 01/08/2026 22:14

@Eastie77Returns yes that's right, Nic did mention Barney 'would babysit' but he's 16 and has zero experience of babies, okay for an hour maybe but you'd hardly leave a baby with him all day. Yet another child who was a plot device and can now disappear till she's at school.

SnowFrogJelly · 01/08/2026 23:25

Joel recovered quickly..
