This thread is a continuation of: Brendan Brady (Emmett J. Scanlan) Fan Thread! (Part 101)

New part

That last thread seemed to go so quickly!

Yay for 102, I like even numbers.

Finally.

Yeah Ready, They do. I hope he sasses both Brendan and Doug Gooooooood, then struts off and tells Doug to get on with it, cause he's taking a holiday

Marvellous.

Love it

And your 3D glasses thing is amazing. So Ste.

Slightly bigger/clearer pics of Walker here and here.

I like to think he went to watch a pixar animation. He was the only lonesome adult there. Everyone else brought their kids, but ste just wanted to be a kid.

Thanks. Look at him, trying to be all charming and normal. I know your game, Walker.


Awwwwwwwwww. BIB

I'm glad his hair is a little less Tim Burton on the show.

Also, awwwww, kojan, awwww.

Ha, yes it looks really different there. Darker.

He even Bought himself some pick n mix, and showed off to all the little kids to make them jealous.

Jesus I have a lot of feelings today. I need to go to bed and stay away from this thread until I'm cured

Goodnight

The state of our ship is making you all sentimental, Kojan

Night!

PJ's interview is up.

Stug has been planned since last summer!

Anyway, he comes across well, and it's a lot of stuff that's been said before in the soap mags, then this:

I was shocked at that too LMan - although now that I think about it, he says 'late summer', so I guess it makes sense that they would have planned it by September.

I like the sound of the upcoming Stugden...

Still though, I do think, with it being created that far back, I would have eased up on a lot of the Bex/Lynsey/Jodie stuff. I know he says until Christmas was already storylined by that point, but it could maybe have been toned down a bit.

I hope he means what he says when he says no one will be sold short because I feel very much so sold short so far.

Definitely! They really did make out that Bex was the love of his life, that there was chemistry with Lynsey, that he fancied Jodie. I don't get it at all.

I do too. I actually feel like we've all been sold short the most. What have we actually been given in the past nine months?

Saw the spoiler pictures. If you want to keep it a secret Tilly, don't hold hands when there's two other people in the bloody room.

I think I like the idea of Walker and Brendan. Im going under..it might not happen but still...I can imagine. x

Nothing?

Bar the odd scene.

And this story sounds so extremely Doug-focused.

I'm anticipating/dreading Kieron's interview just so we can finally hear things from a Ste perspective, cos we're not getting it onscreen.

BIB: Very much so.

Although I'm not sure if I'm getting that vibe just because we've really only heard PJ's perspective in depth so far. So, I'm very interested to hear what Kieron has to say.

I have to say, I was also really surprised to hear that they've had this planned since late summer. You wouldn't have known.

We've basically been ignored since ILY week. Anything we have been given has been mostly them angry with each other.

I love Doug, but I didn't want this to be his coming out story. I really hope Ste still plays a big part in it. I feel like this should be about his side, his choice between Doug and Brendan.

Even when we do get Kieron's interview, I hope what he says actually comes across onscreen. Cos at the minute it's Doug that's getting the development and really, we're not getting much, if any, of Ste's thoughts bar the fact that he's interfering in Amy's life... cos he's lonely.... I guess. And even that came from Amy and not Ste.


Maybe it'll turn into that? At this moment in time, Ste sounds very plot device-y.

Though like Maya says, maybe that's because we've only heard PJ's perspective.

Yes, I hope Maya's right. And I'm sure when Brendan gets involved the focus will be much more on Ste.

I'm confused though. What is all of this meant to say and mean for Doug's character later on?

Planned since late last summer, but then there was in fact Bex/Lynsey/Jodie

It all seems to suggest both opposite extremes can either still be the direction: either he's only being focused on now to explore/explain the turn before becoming more of a plot-device for Ste/Stendan, and they played to his general heterosexuality and feelings for Bex since last year because he's meant to be straight again after the reunion; or because this was planned since last summer, it's all going to effect some major permanent changes for Doug as well that could mean he's still involved/an option a long time past Later.

Besides the business and Walker, I'm petrified of what other developments a part to all of this could be a reason for why they needed that kind of planning and foresight.
