Thanks for that, Sarah.

Good to see that Cheryl is back after her odd little disappearance.

I was thinking maybe Bronagh couldn't take part in the wedding stunt because of her bad back maybe?

And so far, no Maddie, Neil or Rhys on that list?

Hmmmm.

Morning

HO do like to make things difficult for us to read. Sometimes it's hard to see who Ste loves as they seem to play him differently every day/week. I would of said that Ste would need to hear from Brendan that he still loves him, for him to face his feelings as that's what they did with Doug, Ste didn't appear to have anythin other than friendship feels for him until Doug said I love you. But now I don't know. Brendan might say it but Ste will be unconsious so it might be a case of memories of words from Brendan coming back to Ste along with remembering about the recording and if Doug does do something with the cross finding out about that. Who knows, I suppose we will have to wait until Ste is out the coma to get some clues. It's just all so confusing and I just want Dublin now.

That's what I thought too. Annalise seemed like a stand-in.

But we don't have any spoilers for them for next week yet, if there even will be. We just know they're onscreen and Cheryl reappears.

I don't know if this is of any interest (I'm feeling geeky) but the week of 26 November is directed by Bruce Webb, who last directed Oaks in 2006.

Yes, I'm sure it was when she was off work with her back problem. There's no plot reason for her not being there.

There aren't really any spoilers naming people connected with the wedding. They don't want us to know the outcome of the disaster.

I think it's gonna be like the week/two weeks after Laters, where we knew they'd be in it but didn't know what would happen and it turned out to be a brilliant few weeks of eps

Ooo at cast list so looks like Rhys dies straight away and tony dies in hospital maybe after having a last minute talk with Cindy on his death bed??

Im so excited for tonight it's not normal...wonder if Brendan turns up

Mum wanted to go food shopping and I was adamant it's got to be after 7.30 LOL

It is interesting Sarah, was that in the BK era?

I have noticed that once people get into positions of power in HOs they give all their mates jobs.

Poor Bronagh and her dodgy back. I remember Kieron saying something on the radio about her needing to be back soon because they were shooting something big and they needed her there. I guess in the end they had to shoot round it.

I'd be surprised if Brendan's in it tonight. I don't know why he'd show up for the explosion/immediate aftermath really. I imagine there'll be plenty going on, and his involvement can wait.

Annalise isn't in next week either, but she might just be offscreen.

And so it could only be Maddie, Neil, and Rhys then that die, right? Tony doesn't if he's onscreen next week too, so Rhys must survive the crash but still die when he and Cindy think they're safe. And so the affair must just be what Jacqui's kicking off about, and that's what 'the truth staying buried' is referring to.

Is it sciatica (sp) that Bronagh has?

If so I can only feel sorry for her, one of my older sisters has it and it turns her from a cheerful person who works really hard and takes her dogs out twice a day into an old woman who needs help to get up one step.

It is really debilitating.

Poor Bronagh.

BK was 2006-09, so he might have known him then. As long as they're good, which Bruce Webb seems to be, then I like it when they bring back old experienced directors and writers.

Think its a disk problem, she was telling someone the other day that shes having surgery in February.

I think it is sciatica, because I vaguely remember Kieron having a go at pronouncing it on KeeBro.

Well remembered.

Yeah, she must have had to sit it out. Which is probably in the best interests of HO too. For health and safety, I doubt they could put her in that situation.

Well, it's not exactly a sitting around part, is it, either. She'd have been dashing around with flowers and stuff, and then running out of the path of vehicles. Impossible to do if you're suffering.

Generally speaking, it looked like Annalise was making a better job of organising that flipping wedding anyway.

Friday's E4:

When I watched the wedding episode a few weeks ago (or the clips of it that I was given to edit with) they actually had a line for Cheryl's absence, where Ste said 'We can't start yet, Cheryl's not here - she's meant to be me best man!'... or something along those lines. I guess they took it out because there was still no explanation of her never turning up, and that would have just drawn attention to it.

Just sent this tweet lol

Question for @kieronrichardso... Whats your favourite flower? And if you say delphiniums im going to scream =) @KeeBroShow

You know I have this feeling this Sinead thing is going to tie in to Rhys you know. I think Sinead slept with him and got pregnant.

I noticed last night that Alex Jacob the director is doing some heavy filming today with Claire and the two Stephs. Rhys' funeral perhaps? and a 3 way battle between them maybe.

So by that Friday e4 summary Sinead's obviously preggers

I've said its him all along, Jacqui will find out about Cindy and then eventually about sinead
Poor jacqui
