Thanks for the new thread South!

Thank you for the new thread @Southeastdweller

I used to think Ravi and Priya were a great match. But I don't any more, he will never change. We still don't know where the money for the gym came from, do we.

He had a lot of potential as a complex character in the same vein as Suki - done bad stuff, but has a good heart underneath it. But he was just trashed by Wadey, there is no way back for him. I guess it is him with the gun on NYD and that leads to him leaving.

Thank you for the new thread @Southeastdweller

Takes a seat in the corner between the door and the fireplace so I can see and hear everything even when it's rowdy with a full volume JukeBox

Thanks for the new thread @Southeastdweller .

He is a good actor so can play the part well but he got Khareet beaten up in jail and was responsible for what was done to Kojo and Harry, not to mention battering his own son and Kidnapping Eve.

If think it's good to have complex characters but when they do really horrendous things it's hard to ignore. Joel is the same.

Add dangling Barney from a bridge to his list!

Let’s face it, if Ravi didn’t look like he does, nobody would like him! He also slept with Priya and left her high and dry too , as well as all the other things his done.
He is a good actor , but the character is flawed and it all got too much , especially with Nugget as that was bad.

Shellingbynight · 16/08/2026 11:36

I agree Ravi has done too much bad stuff, they squeezed every last drop out of him.

He is another Nicola, he had a terrible dad (well two terrible dads, killed them both, fair enough😆). She was dealing drugs so they have that in common too.

Hmm I wonder if Nic killed her dad…. They do like that kind of thing on EastEnders!

Joel is different because he’s 16 so has time to grow into what passes for a normal human in Walford. I hope they keep an edge to him as the actor has such a good range.

Thanks @southeastdweller
Shame Ravi is going, I like them all, but he is a terrible person, he has done awful things!

MyWildOliveGoose · 16/08/2026 12:55

My red flag is that, after everything he’s done that I’ve accepted .. manipulating Priya into bed and then leaving her was the last straw for me. 🤣 hang who you want off a bridge, kill your dads, kidnap people - I can’t include beating up his son because he didn’t do that of sound mind - but don’t… break.. a woman’s… heart!

Cece92 · 16/08/2026 13:02

Not Ravi 😢 who am I gonna objectify now with my eyes

I thought it was more like a kind of goodbye when Ravi came back and slept with Priya? Something to keep him motivated to get back to and focus on to get better 🤔

What? lol no… that might be what it was to him, but to Priya it was evident it was more lol she was devastated. He manipulated her.

Watched the clip , of course Nicolas new family are going to cause trouble . Careeering onto the Square , looking for a soft target to hit (wheelie bin) causing mayhem.
Then Jodie saying "I need a wee, I'm going to wet myself"

She'll go to the Vic (as directed by Nicola) and ask "Where's the toilets "

Alfie will say "Just down there ,sweetheart , round that corner"

Kat will rock up "Are you buying anyfing"?
"No , I just need the toilet"

"Look above the door Love , It says 'Queen Victoria Public House' not Public Khazi "

Cue lifelong feud .

The other sister Gemma will have all the predatory blokes - Max, Mark, Zac sniffing about like dogs . She's pretty and has a pulse (and obviously a dodgy bloke in tow)

Shellingbynight · 16/08/2026 15:08

I think you've got it right there, 70s!😆

That trailer is disappointing. If you want a mouthy woman with trouble written all over her, get Patsy back as Bianca.

the80sweregreat · 16/08/2026 15:17

I do like 70s alternative EE scripts! I can see that happening and Kat growling at the new people.
Is Nic the eldest ? I thought she was the middle one , but no idea .

the80sweregreat · 16/08/2026 15:18

Rose is bound to be trouble isn’t she! A new Pat type is my uneducated guess

MadisonAvenue · 16/08/2026 15:19

Surely Wadey has to be on borrowed time now.

Alucard55 · 16/08/2026 16:25

Could Pryia be the pregnant woman but It's Ravi's baby and everyone knows that. For some convoluted reason she needs somewhere to sleep on the eve of Max and Cindy's wedding and Max helps her out as he is obviously fond of her. Que conversation "you take the bed" "no I'll take the sofa" "well why don't we share the bed I'm 8.5 months up the duff and it's not like we're go to do anything as I'm married to Ravi now".

I've not quite worked out the Ravi part but I'm quite proud of that.

Shellingbynight · 16/08/2026 17:07

@alucard55 that is so convoluted it's like you are seeing inside Wadey's brain 😆
