is tonight the last night we know Brendans in the show? i'm quite looking forward to it just to see what Noel will try to convey when Ste catches them
As far as we know, yeah. I'm looking forward to Noel's attempted at looking shocked/guilty.

Its the last night he's in the spoilers, yes. But he might still show up tomorrow I guess - there were no spoilers about a Brendan and Ste scene the day after the toilet punch, for instance.

Oh me too!

I am also hoping that when Noel tries to excuse what he's done, Ste goes "So you just tripped and fell on his neck yeah?." or something similar to that.

I would just die of happiness.

Ahh, good



Oh dear, I don't like noah, I hasten to add! But just to see him seduced would be hilarious. And brendan's the only man who could do it properly.
hehe Exactly. We all know Brendan's a master of seduction.
I wonder if he'll use the same tricks he used on Ste.
"oh look at that you've fallen over and i've fallen on top of you..."

Plus we have black eye Brendan! oh yum.

I'm strangely looking forward to it. maybe I'll be the first person to jump on the Broah ship.
[hahaha i joke, never will anyone board that ship]
But if any part of me starts to find the Broah seduction hot I'm going to have to wash my brain out with Ethanol and turn myself into the looney bin.

BIB - it will probably just be Noel sighing and walking after Ste
and shoulder bobbing :]

My guess is it will involve shoulders and eyebrows.

I wonder if we'll get another 'Oops' from Brendan.

I could see Ste saying that. I also want Ste to get all in his face and be the nasty little shoite I know he can be.

Wiggling his eyebrows in comical fashion.

Do you think Ste would have started going out with Noel if he hadn't been with Brendan before? i really don't tink he would have because Noel and Ste are so different and have very little in common whereas you can see why Ste was attracted to Brendan.

I wonder if Ste would have even realised that he liked blokes if he hadn't been with Brendan. He did genuinely want to be with Rae before he started interfering. I don't know if he would still be with Rae, but I don't think Noah would be the one to make him acknowledge his attraction to guys.

Ste told Warren that he didn't even think he was gay, so I don't even think Ste would know he was gay if it hadn't been for Brendan. He turned him.

No but, the only thing Ste and Noel have in common is that they're both gay. HO seem to think that that's all they need to know about each other.

i find it a bit unbelievable really that Ste would now have no interest in girls because he really loved Amy and he seemed to really like Rae as well and that was only a couple of months ago, so it doesn't make sense really that he'd now only be interested in men

I don't think Ste would have even befriended him, nevermind anything else.

But yeah, I still find it odd they class Ste as gay, when really, he probably is bi with a preference for men. Or at last that's how Kieron thought of Ste as, but they seem to have gone the definite gay route.

I'm with you and fredcat, I would find it much more believable if they classified him as a bi man who was in love with another man. I can't believe that his attraction to Amy (and Rae to an extent) wasn't real, he wasn't complaining about sleeping with Rae even after he'd been with Brendan.

I just rose to a Surfie post on the main thread. I really shouldn't have

Inside Soap just wrote an article on Brendan's dancing: http://www.insidesoap.co.uk/inside-s...iant%E2%80%A6/

I love this part:

"Whether Ste and Noah’s relationship will be able to survive the meddling of Double B remains to be seen, but I for one hope that it won’t. No offence to Noah, but he’s never going to match up to the brilliance of twisted Brendan. And isn’t it about time Ste set his lovely boyfriend free to be with someone who’s actually capable of loving him back?"


ETA: I don't agree with the lovely boyfriend part. Noah's a tw*t.

I wondered if they would go anywhere with that moment when Ste was first with Noah and he looked at Noah's GT or whatever that came through the mail, and he really looked a bit uncomfortable with the whole 'gay culture' thing. They've never mentioned it since, so maybe it was just meant to underline the whole thing about Ste and Noah being a mismatch - Ste all new to it, and Noah totally out and not really understanding.

Ste definitely told Amy right at the start that he had genuinely been attracted to her, and rae, and He was with Theresa as well. HO really aren't very good at bi characters. It's like by signalling Ste is 'gay', they are basically saying, they won't be putting him with any girls in future. But I don't think they should limit him like that.

A few years ago it would have been completeley unbelievable that Ste would be friends with Noah let alone be his boyfriend. It would have made alot more sense for Ste to just stay single after he split up with Brendan but then they needed something to stop Ste being tempted back so they put him with Noah, regardless of whether they would normally speak to each other or not

I wish he would! Seriously, I would love that.

ETA:I was wondering though if there was meant to be something in what Noah said on club night to Brendan, that he was basically too shy really to pick someone up in the conventional way. I usually dismiss everything Noah says as crap, but I wondered about that.
I wondered about that too. I kind of have to agree with him about that, even though I really don't want to! I do think a part of him is really shy and insecure of being gay and that's why he puts on a mask and manipulates people into liking him because he's scared that if he does put himself out there he will either get hurt or get rejected. He definitely manipulates people to protect himself and stop them from getting too close to him because as he's said before, he always hurts the people he loves, who then equally hurt him back.

But I don't think that when he started using his 'techniques' on Ste that he would fall for him and vice versa and that it would get this far. And now he has no idea what to do and how to get him back so he's using the only thing that he knows and that has worked before and is now manipulating his way back into Ste's life.

Wow, that was a long post, sorry for that.

Well I don't think Noel is lovely, but apart from that...

I agree C&S. If I recall correctly, he didn't even particularly like Theresa (as as person) but relented and let her seduce him when she dressed up in Mercy's clothes. That suggests sexual attraction to me!

Of course, the writers didn't plan on him liking guys at that stage, but it is rather re-writing history if they expect us to believe he has absolutely no interest in girls now. Although in fairness its not quite as unbelievable as Sarah Barnes deciding that she was a lesbian

Yeah, I did wonder about Noel's gay mag but I just assumed that it was showing Ste's lack of comfort with who Noel is and their incapability. His life, his interests, are nothing like Ste's. Wasn't that the episode where Leah tw*tted him over the head as well?

I'm with you and fredcat, I would find it much more believable if they classified him as a bi man who was in love with another man. I can't believe that his attraction to Amy (and Rae to an extent) wasn't real, he wasn't complaining about sleeping with Rae even after he'd been with Brendan.
Yeah, see, I do think he's technically bi. Because he did love them, he may not anymore but he did. Mind you, I'd rather they say he's gay because bisexual characters make me think of the awful handling of Ravi's supposed bisexuality....

Yay for Inside Soap.

Boo at lovely boyfriend but yay at the rest of it.

ETA: Really liked that post, qwerty.

I imagine PM in a swivel chair, stroking a white cat, like a Bond Villain.

"This episode is lacking something ... fetch me ... Emmett. Kieron. Sean Glynn. A set of flashlights. And a helicopter."
I nearly died from laughter. Am going to photoshop this when I get home

Most soaps seems to suck at bisexuality generally though. Hollyoaks had Ravi, who was bisexual for about 5 minutes and then they seemed to completely forget about it after that godawful love triangle. And there was Kris too, but he didn't seem to have chemistry with anyone, boy or girl!

Ste is a good enough character that they might have got it right for once. I think its a bit of a shame that they weren't willing to take a risk but maybe its for the best.

Just wanted to add that I love this post too . Especially after what happened with Pete, it makes sense that deep down Brendan is scared of being rejected.
