I don't know if anyone else has picked this up in another thread, but according to Weekenders soap section, the first axe has been dropped on one of The Ferraira's - Ash.

That's a shame- I actually think Ash is one of the better Ferreiras

That is a pity. He brought more to the Ferreiras than the rest of them combined. If any of them are being axed it should be Ronny. Such a pathetic character and self-obsessed actor.

Yeh I thought out of them all he could be potentially the most interesting. They should all be axed but out of anyone to stay I would have chosen him. Wasn't he quitting at one point?

Appropriately, in Holby City he played "Sanjay Kumar" in episode: "Knife Edge" in 1999 - looks like she is giving him the knife first.

Yeah, Ash does seem a strange choice. I think that out of all the Ferreiras, he has the best potential, along with Adi. Tariq, Ronny and Kareena are all boring as far as I'm concerned.

Ronny and Tariq especially, they're just like 3D versions of Beavis and Butthead. "Ahh Tariq man!" "But Rons! its meeeeee! we're broooos!" oh please get rid! I actually think there would have been a good storyline between Adi and Dan Ferreira had the old git bothered to become legally a citizen in Britain. IN fact I'm nearly sure there were plans for a storyline between them.

Yeah, I think so too. There was going to be a big storyline there apparently - I think LB confirmed this, but due to Dalip's problems, the storyline had to be dropped. Instead, we had to endure the boring kidney storyline dragging on for months.

Thats a shame, along with Adi, Ash had the biggest potential for the Ferreira's.

I so wanted to see Adi kick Dan's big fat @ss to the curb but I guess that will never happen now!

Out of the Ferrairaz, Ash and Adi are the best. Keep them, axe the tweenies.

What? Ash was the best one! It seems a very strange choice to me?! Ash definatly had more potential than the rest of them! I'll be very surprised if this is true. There are a lot of other people I would expect them to axe before Ash. I hope its not true.

I actually didn't think Ash had much potential at all.. He had no major relationships with any of the residents to speak of. And I don't see what possibilities were there for the character. The fact that he had a gambling problem was one of very few useless points about the character. I mean how dull was it when he gambled the family's save-the-house money..

I'd say he had potential. He has a wife and a kid (not 100% sure about the kid) that have breifly been talked about. We could learn more about them. Or we could learn why and how he got into gamling?! There are a lot of possibilities. He had more ptential than the rest of them though!

But again those plots involve strictly the Ferreira's, and let's face it.. nobody cares what happens to them. I mean not look how the kidney transplant story went.. and other family and it might've proved more interesting.

Ash is by far the best followed way behind by Kareena. If any of them should have left it should have been Tariq who is ruinining the rest of them, Ronny in particular.

Kareena is the only one I like- I think the worst are Ash and Adi.

Very true i think ash was the only one apart from tariq that could act . Eastenders introduced the fere-whatevas as a fun loving, elvis, british asian family. but what do we get bulls**t acting that puts all british asians to shame. any indian will understand what i mean! no way are asian family's like that! EE should have bought abit of light-hearted goodness gracious me punjabi humour by changing the ferreras to the Singhs.

Anyway if they are finally getting rid of the biggest mistake EE ever made then this is the order i'd do it in (from worst to worse)

1. Ronny 2. Adi 3. Kareena 4. Ash 5. Tariq


who agrees??????????

I'd axe Tariq first.. I don't think he can act, those scenes where Ash tried to persuade him to go through with the transplant still haunt me. "I cawn't! I just cawn't!!!!"

I want to know why Adi is suddenly the 'main man' of the Ferreira household. It wasnt so long ago that he was a waste of space in the eyes of the rest of the family, and would hide bank statements etc ...

Now he seems to have the final say in everything. Like when they moved flats - they all begged him to 'let them' move Why ??

Yeah, it's strange how he's suddenly seen as the competent one. I suppose it's because up until recently, Ash was seen as the problem solver.. But after he gambled their house money, the family looked to Adi because he's the next oldest. Also, I think that maybe Dan's departure is supposed to have had a calming affect on Adi. Then there's the fact that he's got Sasha to help him out.
