Evening gem I don't usually find Yusef that attractive but OMG... tonight he was just... He had the voice thing going on again!!! Oh and sorry I haven't replied to your PM yet, I will later
I was talking to my friend earlier and she goes 'Do you know who I found kind of attractive, for a split second, for other day in EE?' and I was thinking please say Yusef, please say Yusef!!! It was Fatboy
I'm semi-ashamed that I find a man that old attractive, there must be something wrong with me

Thanks Geoff and Zoetje! Interesting background info for someone who only got hooked when Chryed became a couple!

Waves to Meg



I blubbered at home too! So beautiful! Glad you had a great day Spicey



I'm with you, Susan. And when they'd talked things out, Christian carried Syed off to bed, where they didn't need words to prove how much they love each other...and always will
/Thinking in pictures
I am such a sap..cry at everything. She looked beautiful and so in love as did he. Off to watch Easties now!

So who's writing on Monday - can we expect a decent conversation?
Nicholas Hicks-Beach, I'm not sure what he's written before though They're mentioned a fair bit in the spoilers but after yesterday I refuse to get my hopes up!

Isn't Ace the same age as Johnny? It's proper normal I've never found men my age attractive They all have to be at least 6 years older than me, and even better if they're over 10 years older

Oh right, they were good eps, especially in terms of addressing issues! Hopefully he won't let us down

Oh right, that's fine then! I'm not really bothered by age, I'd never go for someone a lot older than me though!! If they're attractive then they're attractive

BIB Same here, especially in the last scene.
After tonight I love Yusef even more, he knows what he's doing and he is so evil. The fact that Denise's boyfriend and she said he's too nice is enough evidence to point towards evil.
This!! Hi curly

It's those 'subtle' lines from EE that I love 'You're too nice' = 'You're really evil'
So true, I liked that line for that! . Yusef must have wanted to say mwhahaha

This is completely accurate - totally how it happened. I also don't think Christian will see the connection - yet, it was a different situation. It was pride with him, that got in the way of making up with his Mum sooner. Although this in itself is interesting, as he shares this trait with Zainab and Masood, to some degree.

I am dying for Monday's episode already! Just re-watched all the clips again, from this week. I think 8 days away from here and not being able to watch EE when I wanted has sent me dotty!

I liked last night. *feels very alone*.

I have to say, watching Masood with the gambling storyline actually humanised him for me, I really, really felt for him. Stupid man, but sad when people are addicted like that.

We do get the Masoods tonight, don't we?
I didn't hate it. It was choppy and partly ill-devised, but the first scene was lovely between the boys, and Mas' addiction was very well shown (notably, his addiction, not simply pressure from the evil missis). I think the major problem was that the 'Christian deals with reconciliation' was just about okay, but then the final line madness just threw it sharply to the other side. Without that, I think it would have sat a lot better. But generally, ok, I agree.

BIB 2 - I agree, he will understand completely the missing his mum parts.

I think that, although Christian respects Syed's faith, we have seen very little (in fact nothing) since DC week and the visit to the mosque, which he obviously got horribly wrong. I think Christian might fear that Syed being in contact with them all may bring him fresh doubts over his choice, in the sense that it may muddy the waters, and mess with his decision. I don't think this about Syed, but is it realistic that Christian might fear this?

He may be frightened of the power of Syed's religion...perhaps? Or this interpretation too over the top? I'm not sure what I think myself, just throwing it out there? He might fear he is losing his grip on his gay guru status? I don't mean for a moment that Christian 'gets off' on this in some way....but he might see his influence on Syed being watered down..........even typing this sounds wrong, it's not coming out how I mean....rambling...I don't mean that he thinks of himself as Syed's mentor or anything, but I think to some degree in the beginning there has been a bit of that going on....from Syed's side. In the reunion speech, when Syed says 'I'm gonna need a bit of help' and then again recently, when Syed said 'you told me - walk tall, be proud' - I think he might fear some of this will go by the wayside.

I think he might feel that contact with them might prove toxic in the long run, even though he does love Syed and want him to have his family, I think he would have very conflicted feelings now it is actually starting to happen? I would if I was him.

It's all wonderfully complex and fascinating and fantastic.

Sorry, on a bit of high tonight, so glad to be back on here!
BIB1 - Yep, I don't think Zoe that anyone would say that Christian doesn't understand what it's like to miss your mum. But that, aside from faith and cultural matters, their relationship (even before coming out) with their mum's was very different (everyone loves their mum, really, but we all have a different relationship, and differing in intensity), and their estrangement period was very very different.

BIB2 - No this made a lot of sense, and doesn't sound bad (as if you have to worry about that!). It doesn't mean Christian wants to lock Syed in a cupboard (bad phrasing - I'd say tie to the bed but I know what perverts I'm talking to) to say that he will have got used to being a very big - if not sole - influence in Syed's life. Even for someone that's good at sharing (and I think Christian is a self-confessed bad sharer), it would be incredibly hard to go from this situation to one where you were one of two or three big influences. He could perhaps handle the influence of Islam, even, better when separated from Zainab and Masood, I agree.

BIB3 - This is exactly it! This is it, and what I so wish had been expressed yesterday. Let's hope it comes eventually eh.

Hi Geoff .

I think you're right about Christian's backstory, though others know it much better than me. I know what you mean about not reading too much into things too .QUOTE]

Christian's backstory is very different, he was younger, prouder and not so dependant on family and community for his self esteem. He also wasn't in a relationship so only had to worry about the impact it had to him personally. He was quite comfortable putting himself before his family (even with Jane and David)

Syed on the other hand had a much closer relationship with his mother and knows that his family essentially blame Christian for "making" him gay and him for being too "weak" to resist him. Syed has always put himself last, whether it is with his family or to a certain extent with Christian.

There is no doubt Christian understands how important Syed's family is to him, and is terrified they will hurt him again (and again). He wouldn't have been there at the ABRC if he didn't support him - but the Cruella and Godzilla comments mean he doesn't really understand why - so he can't relate it to his own experience
.
Great post. I agree, especially with the BIB's.

I think the Cruella and Godzilla stuff shows he's now run out of patience, for the time being.

I also think the age thing comes into play here, a tiny bit. Only a tiny bit. But Christian is older, and the older you get - you do pass more and more moments when you think, well this is my life, and I have to live it for me. Christian hasn't had the dependant family relationship that Syed has had. His background is different, and he's had much more time and distance from all this kind of family ties.

I just don't find people my age as attractive as older guys I'm weird I know! Having said that, I don't think I'd actually date someone over 10 years older than me, I just like looking at some of them
