I think they were pointing out that Amira called Christian 'Uncle Christian' and that's probably a sign by the writers that Amira will firmly install this in Yasmin, regardless of what Yasmin calls him now. At the same time - married or not - Amira's new husband should also be called 'uncle' if Yasmin's surname remains 'Masood' when she goes to school.
I think what I was trying to point out, is that Christian might save himself some pain in the future, if he acknowledges NOW that Yasmin will probably regard Syed as her 'dad' when she gets older and is talking to her friends ( away from the home environment ) and Christian and Amira's new husband by their first names. She'll need different names for her 4 parents when talking about them and it's not appropriate for her to call Syed 'Syed' or Amira 'Amira' but it's less of a problem for her call Christian and Amira's new husband by their first name. It doesn't diminish Christian and Yasmin's love and respect for one another or Christian's role in Yasmin's life but at the same time, neither Christian or Amira's new husband should run away from the fact that Syed is her father because her surname will always be 'Masood' and I don't think it's wrong for Syed to be the one called 'dad' when push comes to shove. I know it's not popular to say this but Amira is only doing what most bio parents do when new partners are involved.She doesn't really need four different names; I imagine Amira will refer to Syed as 'dad' and her new partner by his first name, but Syed would refer to both himself and Christian as dad when Yasmin is with them.

Don't think you're alone on the knuckle kiss moment Teapot - I loathed it and I know at least one other person who was seriously unimpressed by it too.
![]() How can you loathe a Chryed kiss it could have been worse - it could have been Danny kissing Syed's hand better!!! Like a primark version.

*Still catching up*.....To me Syed and Christian are both equally Yasmin's father's
Biology at the end of the day doesn't mean a damn thing, it's about love, and Christian loves Yasmin just as much as Syed does, they are both fathers to her and always will be and I believe that is how Yasmin will see them too.

BIB: Context is everything.
Suspect my feelings on the stag do ep are best left unsaid.Yeah, there's something very weird going on with the pacing in EE - it's like half their own storylines are coming as a surprise to them! They decide that Joey and Lauren must declare mutal undying love and try to run away together in Week 47, but don't seem to start thinking about building up to it until Week 45?! Oh well, maybe things will settle down a bit once the new team's been in place for longer. Adore Chryed's first two ILYs so much because the build up to them was perfect - the audience knew they were in love because we could see it, but it took them months longer to say it. ![]() I think that's a big reason why so many of us got so invested in Chryed, cos we fell in love with them as we watched them fall in love with each other. I was interested in the sl and thought they had amazing chemistry from the start but only got really hooked around blackmail time. I LOVED Gotcha but if Vic ILY and mutual ILY had happened a couple of weeks after that it would have been completely wtf Quote:

BIB: Aww...this

I was interested in the sl and thought they had amazing chemistry from the start but only got really hooked around blackmail time. I LOVED Gotcha but if Vic ILY and mutual ILY had happened a couple of weeks after that it would have been completely wtf I don't see why Amira should be able to dictate what Yasmin calls Christian if Syed (who, as you say, is her biological father) is happy for her to call him dad. I think Syed said she missed her "Daddy Christian" so it's no more confusing than having two "uncles" in Christian and Amira's husband. This! Yasmin has decided that Christian is her daddy and she looks like a strong willed little girl and no one is going to change her mind They have been chatting on the phone and skyping and she misses her daddies but know they will be home soon and she is glad that they are smiley because they seemed sad before but now they're happy and that makes her happy. ![]() Not that I've given this any thought. :sleep: |

Evening
![]() This Lauren and Joey storyline is dreadful. she's just dragged him down an alleyway. they have no chemistry. I REALLY like Ava so far though and she's only been in one scene! Quote:
Argh, Joey/Lauren alley-snogging. Well-lit and it's going on forever and everything.
![]() "As long as we love each other, that's all that matters." Give me strength. I know I've missed a few episodes recently, but fairly certain I didn't miss the 6 months of build up that should have led to that statement. ![]() Quote:

I didn't see it as a sign, more that Amira just didn't realise how close the bond between Christian and Yasmin was.
She doesn't really need four different names; I imagine Amira will refer to Syed as 'dad' and her new partner by his first name, but Syed would refer to both himself and Christian as dad when Yasmin is with them. Because Syed is sharing a role, and Amira isn't. Not that it matters; but for now it's canon that Syed and Christian share an equal role in parenting, with both of them being referred to as dad. No one's denying Syed is her father But it's not a stretch that Yasmin could end up calling all three of them dad. It's whatever she feels comfortable with, and there are all kinds of family set ups. but when she talks to Amira about one of her dads or a friend, she can't just say 'dad' otherwise Amira or the friend wouldn't know which dad she was referring to, hence the need for different names and 'daddy Syed' or 'daddy Christian' won't sound right. I just don't think Christian's role in Yasmin's life will be diminished if she only calls her bio father 'dad' when she gets older and if my niece is anything to go by - growing up to call her step-parents by their first names - she will. I'll shut up now before I'm chased off the thread... |

If Chryed had said ILY after a week I would have laughed and not watched any more of the story! Because it's unrealistic, you have to give the characters time to fall in love and show it so the audience believes it!
This!

Would it matter who she means though? If it does, it would take two seconds to clarify. And Syed referred to Christian as Daddy Christian so I could actually see that working.

That sounds perfectly fine to me, don't see the problem with it at all

I think I just had an issue with Christian telling Syed "You let OUR daughter go back to her mother" because it sounded so wrong - though I understand C was angry that S didn't tell him and he had the right to be - and because this was one of those important decisions that only Syed could make under the law and he was never going to deny Amira custody of her daughter. Christian needs to remember there ARE lines that can't be crossed when it comes to Yasmin and that he can't be on the exact same level as Syed.
I really will shut up now. ![]() /Will also shut up.

Hello ![]() Quote:
Great fic Lyra Thank youQuote:
Morning
Lol, there's a thread in the MF about Chryed having sex in the AB http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1761439 Quote:
I love that whole scene so, so much. He really doesn't notice her AT ALL, from the moment Christian opens the door, does he? And then, when Christian asks if he's interferring, the "No,no,no,no,no*... we're finished" *throws coat*. Always been subtle, our Syed... *Yes, there are five "no's" in there. I've counted. Loved the hug,kisses, hand hold and the looks between Chryed, but my fav moment was when Syed throw Amira's coat at her Quote:
Hi everyone.
I have been following this thread for many years now and have enjoyed reading all of your posts and opinions. It has been a brilliant way for me to find out about the latest news and gossip. This thread has made this brilliant love story even more enjoyable. I just want to thank everyone for the insightful, emotional and entertaining opinions that i have been able to read over the last few years Also, i want to be able to watch the Chryed story again from the beginning. I know the full story is on youtube, but i was wondering if anybody new a way that i could put these videos onto a memory stick and watch it on another laptop for example. Thank you Thank you for your lovely post. Quote:
Obviously everyone is too busy and important to watch the episode judging from all of the posts we've had since half past.
Now if you don't mind I'm going to go and watch the grass grow. In the middle of winter. In the dark. And if I get bored of that I'm sure there was some paint drying somewhere that needed watching. Hope you had fun. I forgot EE was even on today I miss Chryed, but don't miss watching the rest of EE.Quote:

My thanks to you, too, MadWorld for that great video, just watched it twice. Like that version of the song--I'm so old, lol, that I'm most used to the Frankie Goes to Hollywood version; which I still love, but it's great to hear another version!
BTW, does anyone know if there are any Chryed videos using the songs All I Know by Art Garfunkel or I Can't Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt? (talk about old songs, lol) They are killer emotional songs,whether or not they remind you of someone who is in or was in your life!! |

Lol Hope you had fun. I forgot EE was even on today I miss Chryed, but don't miss watching the rest of EE. Eastenders is just so Brannings-heavy at the moment and it tires me out watching it sometimes, so I didn't bother tonight. Seemed too much like a chore tbh. ![]() Hope you like the fic LoveChryed.

The dog sat on me, and I was so adamant that I wasn't going to watch I had to wake his ass up so I could get up and leave the room.
He was unimpressed.![]() Going back to the earlier discussion about who Yasmin will call what, my head canon has always been that she decides to call both Christian and Syed Dad and Christian and Syed always understand what she's talking about and she knows what she's talking about but everyone else gets confused.

All times are GMT. The time now is 12:05.



but Amira is only doing what most bio parents do when new partners are involved.
But it's not a stretch that Yasmin could end up calling all three of them dad. It's whatever she feels comfortable with, and there are all kinds of family set ups.


it could have been worse - it could have been Danny kissing Syed's hand better!!!
(which I think we all know is difficult to achieve :sleep: ) But, each to their own!
