Really good scene. I remember Amira and Syeds wedding well, mainly because I was screaming at the tv but I'm glad it's been spoken of and the air fully cleared.

Im not sure I buy the extent of Zainabs mellowing towards Christian.

It certainly showed a more of a thoughtful and a gentle approach from her - great kindness and acceptance too.

I think there are downsides to her when she's santimonious for example and tries to play the moral high ground, and can be overbearing on her loved ones too. However, on this particular occasion, Zainab was spot-on

Nina Wadia was fantastic but Partridge always looks constipated when he is trying to convey sincere.

I expect to see Zainab leading the modern-day Stonewall Riots and entering a voguing competition any day now. Her turn around has been nothing short of miraculous. Some might even say... ridiculous.

It was a little unexpected, but on the stag/hen do after a bit of a fall-out between Roxy and Christian, Zainab then approached Christian in the Vic.

They buried the hatchet sometime back, but my initial thought given that it was the eve of the wedding was that there was going to be an exchange of disapproval and unpleasantries.

However, she genuinely acknowledged Christian's love for Sayed and commended him.

Christian was taken aback a little, but with emotion and tears of joy - very well acted and one of the best scenes of context I've come across from EE all year.

I thought it was excellent and just to keep a bit of realism and not make it too fairytale-like, Masood still expressed (in a different scene) a slight uncomfortableness with it, and in contrast to Zainab's words, said he doesn't view it as a "real" wedding. (He wasn't being malicious, just a bit insensitive).

I had a slight sense of the actors's feelings bleeding into the scene, as they won't have many more scenes together and they seem to like each other. This may be nonsense, of course.
