I hate saying this but although he is extremely cute looking Jordan’s acting is dire. He just puts on a gormless smiling face in answer to any questions. Never seems to say his words. Like when asked by Sheila have you been on a plane before - cue gormless smile and no answer. Surely ee could have found another kid

Jordan’s actor has been in a few things on Netflix and done really really well, I’m not sure why EE writers have dulled his shine tbh.

I agree Jordan is very cute and smiley, and I guess they chose a passive child who would sit nicely in a chair. But his acting skills are well hidden.

It was me who mentioned giving notice for weddings. I agree it will probably never be mentioned. But Max doesn't get married in September, he gets married on NYD, so something must happen to stop it.

Probably whatever happens to Jimmy and Ethan that causes Max to save them. I hope the writers haven’t forgotten all these things that gave hope and promise to a decent storyline that just don’t seem to be happening. Surely the pregnant woman would know they’re pregnant by now. If it’s not Priya it must be an absolute complete random lol

Alucard55 · 13/08/2026 11:32

@MyWildOliveGoose good point.

Can someone who's been pregnant do the maths?

If the woman in the bed is say 8 months pregnant then they must be 4 months now? And would know surely.

Eastie77Returns · 13/08/2026 11:54

Denise didn't know she was pregnant until she was several months gone but she was older so probably thought any changes were due to Menopause. Plus she had no memory of her drunken ONS with Phil.

The odd thing about the flash forward is Max is sharing a bed with the pregnant woman but there doesn't seem to be anything romantic going on between them which she suggests she is a friend. But later in the episode she stictches him up by refusing to open the door when the police are pursing him. It's a mystery.

Shellingbynight · 13/08/2026 12:24

The woman looks 7 or 8 months pregnant on NYD. Max and Ravi both shagged Priya at the end of May and NYD is 31 weeks after 28 May. So assuming it's Priya, that timing is right. At the moment she would be just under 3 months so wouldn't necessarily know I suppose.

If it's a random surely it's Stacey.

@MyWildOliveGoose It can't be anything to do with Ethan can it? Too early. Even if he's born before then I doubt Max would have anything to do with him.

Princessfluffy · 13/08/2026 12:35

Going against the grain on the child actors I think Jordan’s role is well acted by Jahsaiah Williams but I find Amy very clunky.

I agree, I do find Amy clunky. But then she’s a young actress.

murasaki · 13/08/2026 13:27

I normally find her good, but agree at the moment. I wonder if she's finding the tits out bit difficult. She did an interesting mini thing with Diane Parrish on the manosphere re the Joel story line, maybe she's just uncomfortable.

the80sweregreat · 13/08/2026 13:52

He may be another baddie , but Craig is very easy on the eyes. ( too young for me of course! ..)
So wonder how Cindy will get out of this double wedding and will Kim return the money to Max !
I hope Dee can make it.

Shellingbynight · 13/08/2026 13:59

I agree Amy has been very clunky in the Joel storyline. In the past I thought she was really good. Maybe it is the terrible storytelling, even Diane Parish couldn't cope with the rubbish she was given last night.

Or maybe she is just fairly mediocre and hasn't really been tested before.

(I think Craig is really fugly - the hair and beard! The actor looked better in previous roles.)

Stacey is on Strictly. Go Lacey!

the80sweregreat · 13/08/2026 14:29

The pregnant one is a mystery. Might be Priya ? Could be Stacey ? Who is it behind the door ?

the80sweregreat · 13/08/2026 14:38

Any did well with the self harming storyline, but maybe this one is just too tricky and she’s not feeling it.
Those tops are revealing and a bit too much, but I’ve no idea what teen girls wear these days and it may just be a bit of rebellion there. Roxy wasnt known for being sensible and Jack n Jack just ends up snapping at her.

Shellingbynight · 13/08/2026 15:57

I just watched today's episode. It was better than yesterday's but it couldn't have been worse!

Too much Gray and Ian, too much Kim. We know Ian isn't convicted of stabbing Gray because we've seen him on NYD.

Next week the episode guide (Monday I think) says

Amy is secretly worried after recent events.

Craig is suspended from all public police duties as a serious complaint has been made against him. He's told that he'll also be taken off the Joel case.

I guess after what he said today, the complaint is about him not logging the video.

placemats · 13/08/2026 16:06

Maybe Amy recorded the conversation on the park bench.

I wonder if the writers sat down with her and said we're going to have you with your tits out now are you ok with that?

Eastie77Returns · 13/08/2026 19:45

The Amy actress is a bit older than her character isn't she? I thought she was early twenties. I think her delivery has been a bit stilted and wooden lately but the storyline is difficult to take seriously when she is walking around with the boobs hanging out and that might be making it tricky for her. It's hard to comprehend why Jack and Jack or a female in her life like Kim wouldn't say something to her about her attire. I suppose they have all been distracted by Denise, the kidnapping nonsense etc.

cramptramp · 13/08/2026 19:52

I’m confused. Again. When Amy said she was the one who hit Joel, I thought Barney had hit him? Or have I missed something?

Shellingbynight · 13/08/2026 21:12

Barney just found the hammer.
of course it’s perfectly believable that Amy picked up a hammer and belted Joel over the head because he was annoying her🙄

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 13/08/2026 21:23

Amy has not bashed Joel over the head. Now Avani, maybe.

Alucard55 · 13/08/2026 17:43

I was just wondering if the actress is a bit off in these senses because her boobs are hanging out. It’s quite uncomfortable to watch.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 13/08/2026 21:33

I’m unsure if Amy really assaulted him. Poor Amy, the way Jack speaks to her, attention is attention, positive or negative, she might just be fed up with the stress in the group.
I thought it was Vicky but I don’t think she’d let the kids take the wrap.
Denise looked dreadful. It’s terrifying, cancer.
Typical Gray not taking responsibility.

cramptramp · 13/08/2026 21:35

I was in town today and saw quite a few teenagers and girls in their early 20’s wearing very low cut tops à la Amy. Think it’s a thing atm.

Alucard55 · 13/08/2026 21:56

That scene with Craig and Amy was so creepy. I think he's definitely related in some way now. As dodgy as the storylines are I don't think they'd go down a grooming route. And they look so alike.

This Gray nonsense needs to be over.

That dress today was intentional.
