That REALLY got to me She was just like a little girl crying to her Mummy to make everything ok
I know
The whole stupid kiss then - was a silly build up - 'who cares' and the unexplained argument but seeing the Masoods and hearing their comments was slotted in nicely and I think made him feel quilty. Stupid talking to the piper but complete right reaction to the kiss and i'm so over it now - it was nothing
I hope tomorrow is a better episode as I was in no way moved by James' death and not just because I could tell it was a doll... Billie's death had me actually well up (I don't often cry at tv/film.. I'm an ice queen) and this did nothing for me.
Sam, Jessie and Shane were all very good though, so kudos.
Maybe it's because I have the maternal instinct of a lump of coal but I dunno... I appreciated how it was shot with the revellers and fireworks set against Ronnie holding James... so from a flimmaking stand point I thought it was well done... but something didn't work for me and I'm not sure what it was...
Oh, well, that wasn't so bad. Well, the quality of it was shocking :rolleyes: and Christian's characterisation was bizarre and the whole thing was just random scenes that seemed entirely unrelated. But the actual kiss itself was nothing. Christian said no, the guy ignored him, he didn't kiss him back (so I could see anyway?) and then he repeated that he couldn't. Meh. I can easily forget this ever happened, yay.
The kiss was the least of our problems in that fiasco of an episode.
That was probably one of the worst episodes I have ever seen. I am totally unmoved by the Ronnie/baby scenes which is unlike me as I cry over ANYTHING!!
Christian telling Roxy he and Syed had had a fight. RIDICULOUS!! Why the hell would he be in th Vic and leave Syed at home. And as for the stuff with the piper I can't even comment on it is was so PATHETIC!!!
I am :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
Thank you BK for f***ing up our lovely Chryed.
off to watch Jonathan Creek - at least that will be well written.
Stil :mad::mad::mad::mad:
The same for me. Alfie running into the hospital with Kat was the only bit where I thought ooooh even a tiny bit. And I cry like a tic as a rule.
Dear Christian,
I apologise for calling you a 'douche' and a 'knob' earlier. You are neither (atm). The piper was though (and freakishly tall). You were merely silly and, I suspect, stubborn (I'm assuming the fight ended with Syed shouting 'go out then!' and you saying 'Fine! I will' and storming out with a slam of the door).
I hope Heather tells you to stop crying and go home tomorrow/later on because that would be the sensible thing to do. Also, you should tell Syed because the piper was a knob and you did nothing wrong. In fact, you should tell Syed now so he can come over and hit the piper IN THE FACE for trying in on with you. :sleep:
Yours,
indehed
p.s. don'thavesexwithRoxy, kthxbai
BIB - LMAO, love it!!
The earlier scenes were still pretty bad, but I shall rise above....and pretend they don't exist
Can't process baby storyline at the moment, too sad .
Back to Chryed, I was upset with OOC Christian but he redeemed himself, that bloomin Piper had a ruddy cheek those lips belong to one man and one man only. Felt poignant with countdown as it reminded me of 2009 face sex. It will be interesting to see his guilt play out as he really didn't do anything, maybe he is sorry about the fight too.
Btw: When the piper said it was hot now ! , the way Christian nearly choked on his drink reminded me of the CIN East Street scene with Sean !

Yes X 1000 . Billies death was way more upsetting.
I'm more traumatised by 'it's even hotter now'. What. Come on, Syed's jokes are better than that.
It's really telling if Christian feels that guilty about something so minor. I'm totally fine about Syed forgiving him easily now.
I didn't actually cry at the rest of the episode. I think there's something wrong with me. I cry at Maury.
I didn't cry either....I'm actually more likely to cry at this polar bear programme. But then I generally like animals better than people :sleep::rolleyes:
This definitely. Well, I don't think I would say I loved it. But if we had to have it, then I don't think it could have been much better.
OK, "loved" is a slight overstatement on my part. But we hyped it up on here and imagined some horrific snog to rival and destroy forever our memories of last NYE, Perfect Moment etc. In the end, it was nothing whatsoever. Best of all, the piper instigated (I was convinced Christian would be the one to make the move).
On the basis of that so-called kiss, C actually has no reason to feel as guilty as the spoiler suggest he does. If he's feeling guilty it should be for going out on the piss, seemingly having forgotten the reason why Syed is in a melancholy/ contemplative/ non-going-out mood
Sam was totally brilliant tonight, I think tomorrow's is going to be even sadder though I think it was really well done although had obviously been toned down a lot.
I'm so relieved about the kiss now too. It's obvious that Roxy was egging Christian on and daring him to go and talk to the Piper, but once he actually got there, he realised it wasn't him, it wasn't what he wanted. I'm so glad it was the Piper who made the first move and that Christian pulled away and said no.
I hope we get lots of Christian declaring his love for Syed tomorrow!
Oh, and I loved the look between Christian and Zainab and the reference to NYD
Good post - agree with it all.
The lack of the 'quarrel' leant the whole thing rather ridiculous though. It didn't make enough sense that he would be there, and act like that.
I'm not bothered though - its a small background thing in an episode, that didn't work - but Christian isn't compromised too much.
I'M SO HAPPY! I'M SO GLAD IT WAS NOTHING LIKE WE THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE! YAY!
STUPID SPOILERS!
SO HAPPY!
No worries hun! Glad I could keep you updated! It was honestly fine Apart from Chryed being apart on NYE and Christian seemingly not caring about Syed being home alone, it was absolutely fine!
I don't know whether I cried or not...I felt like I was crying but there was no tears if that makes sense (I'm not normally a crying person but I think that's changing...)
I didn't cry either....I'm actually more likely to cry at this polar bear programme. But then I generally like animals better than people :sleep::rolleyes:
That piper must be about seven foot tall. I'm so glad that's over, really glad that the kiss attempt wasn't seen by anyone else. (Unless Zainab was lurking under the piper's kilt.)
Ronnie saying "mummy", her facial expressions, she played it to perfection.
Im glad you liked it but i didnt feel anything. No real tears at all. She seemed dry eyed though out and add in the fact you could tell it was a doll though out her waving it about did not help.
I think it has been cut to bits and it would of been a lot more powerful uncut. They did say they took out some of the Ronnie audio and James hand so for me its been cut to bits so as to not offend anybody.
I'm so proud of Christian for not responding to the kiss
The Christian of old would have had him up against the wall within seconds!
He's not that person anymore, he's a one man man, the only man he's interested in is his Syed
This!!!
Christian said 'I can't' meaning he can't kiss him before and after the kiss and pulls away as soon as their lips touch and pushes him away when he tries to kiss him again...he loves Syed...and I think the only reason he talked to the piper was because Roxy egged him on and didn't even know how to respond to the piper flirting.....because Christian loves Syed
Glad i am not alone in that . I was not moved in any shape or form and it was really tame. Nothing at all distubing about it at all.
They didnt even show the switch which i guess is another edited job.
Yeah, I was pretty underwhelmed too, I must admit. I don't know if it's that my focus was elsewhere, or what. Sam Womack was absolutely incredible, but... I don't know. I just wasn't as upset as I was expecting to be. I was tearing up reading about it in the telly magazines, and actually watching it? Nada. It's weird.
I think it's possible that the toning down of the episode has made it less affecting, too.
Biddy, I didn't cry, either, but I thought Sam did a wonderful job. The scene with the blanket... but I am not emotionally invested in her story.
Just watching Friends, the scene where it comes out that Chandler kissed a guy in a bar. Sounds familiar.
Poor episode for Chryed. Do not get it.
Ah, Unless it is a set up for EE making it clear that their love is beyond time and space. See, Christian and Syed are destined for each other. Maybe that was the point,

Yes - and for getting himself into that silly situation just to please Roxy. He acted a prat, but no way is he unforgiveable.

She really did - just had to go sob on my bed for a bit & check on my little one after that

Again, poor Ronnie

I'm proud you pushed him away Christian and said NO .... The man done good!!
