Even now that the Carters know that Babe has been blackmailing the Coker's, they have totally ignored it and brushed it under the carpet, what a nice family.

    Yeah this is bugging me. Mick was like, 'Babe's said she is sorry so lets leave it there'.

    She stole 40k from them!!!!!!

    Babe is made of teflon. It literally doesn't matter what she does wrong she will always be forgiven by the Carters and usually within a week. Lying, cheating, stealing, blackmail, extortion, human trafficking. It's all water off a ducks back...

    The ending to that was a joke. As if Mick and Linda would just shrug it off. Babe was already in trouble for what happened with abi and the blackmail was even worse yet they barely reacted to the blackmail news.

    Mick is an idiot. Babe could try and sell Ollie, and Mick will still be stuffing his face with her trifle and saying 'it's alwhite..L, Babe said she's sorry.. let's hold a karaoke party to forget about it' >:(

    Cora already exposed Babe's baby farming to Mick & Linda but since then Babe has gone full circle with her antics.

    I suppose they HAD to have her forgiven as otherwise she'd have to leave the show, and they don't want that. They conveniently let it come out just as she was recovering from her attack to try to make it realistic that she was forgiven.. but it isn't really realistic at all.

    The way they've swept it under the carpet is terrible. Saying "sorry" won't get the Cokers their money back. I don't know how they can just act like nothing happened? :confused:

    She could have purchased a bedsit or rented with the £40k.

    Well i heard Cora is coming back soon anyway.

    So hopefully she will help make the carters see sense about babe, that is probably why they are shrugging it off atm, because there is more to the story to come and usually with a dramatic climax, that is what usually happens. Nasty people in soaps get away with a lot, but eventually they get what is coming to them.

    It is annoying that they have wrote in the carters keep shrugging it off and no mention of the OP stuff about the blackmailing apart from what mick said. I am sure it will all come to a head soon. probably at xmas or new year :P

    I can see how this would work, which would explain why Mick and Linda didn't really seem bothered. Although I thought it was nice when Linda said to Babe about forgiveness that Babe has been on the receiving end of it enough times, maybe she could give it out a little. Babe had an ever so brief look on her face like a scolded child. :D

    Cora and Claudette are the only ones who can deal with Babe. she seems to have the Carters in the palm of her hand.

    Elaine knows what Babe is like as does Linda, Shirley and Whitney but Mick is loyal to Babe.

    They're dragging this out until the inevitable 'Babe tries to kill Abi' s/l.

    And let's not forget what she did to Lee and Whitney. It also seems Claudette has been satisfied with Babe's waterworks and faux apology >:(

    I just don't get why there has been no further mention of it. You would at least expect the Carters to not be happy with her, and tell her something like pay them the money back and we'll forget about it.

    All it's done has make me dislike the Carters even more. They're self righteous, hypocritical idiots. Between forgiving Babe for blackmail and baby selling and letting Sonia take care of Sylvie they've not had a good month. This on top of Lee letting Whitney think she gave him and their baby an STD, which of course was forgiven in no time by Saint Mick and Princess Linda.

    I feel sorry for the Cokers. Les said ''Now that Babe has stopped blackmailing us [we can start planning Paul's funeral].''

    He doesn't even realise that Mick and Linda know his secret and the blackmailing yet are happy to live with Babe without even making her pay them back. The Carters barely seemed to realise that Babe's blackmailing was still going on after the Cokers' grandson's death.

    The Brannings (Jack, Lauren and Abi) were the only ones angry at Babe for manipulating Abi

    I think Les and Pam should have told the whole Square what Babe did

    The STI was the pits, they were all giving Whitney the look of "unclean" yet as soon as it Lee it was all tickety boo, WTF? >:(

    Have to agree. That's the problem with DTCs era, too much sensational drivel and no long term impact.
