It sounds quite interesting. I hope it's not just a McQueen house fire but something more than that and that doesn't mean trying to work out who started the fire. But anyway it's
It sounds quite good and exciting and hopefully it could be one of the biggest plots yet.

after reading about Teresa's return next week it sounds as though the new Mcqueen's might be coming then.

I actually hope it is a McQueen house fire. That set has had it's day.

The only way this story will be good is if the fire kills off Mercedes and Sonny.

Mercy is ok these days, since she stopped marrying everyone she sees

Mercy is never ok, until she finally gets her comeuppance for all the things she constantly gets away with.

That's true and if she is responsible for putting Freddie away, never to be seen again then she may just become my favorite character.

But that's why we love her

I can't wait for her to learn what Finn did to her baby brother, given she punched Kieron when she thought he cheated on JP, anything Ste does will be nothing compared to the McQueen women

I love Mercy. Love her nice side (when she is actually nice) but also love her bitchy side like when she got the money out of Cindy.

Are there going to be room for the new McQueen girls when Mercedes, Carmel, Theresa and Phoebe are all there? From the leaked scripts, the new additions seem a mixture of Carmel and Mercedes.

Their house is the tardis

At one point all 6 kids and mum, and dom and Russ were there
Bart was there at one point as well

Oh I didn't mean the house because we know it is the tardis, I meant the characters? Do we have room? Are they really going to be that different from the other McQueen girls? I'd rather see focus and development on the ones we have tbh, because Carmel and Phoebe barely get noticed as it is.

Just because you don't like Mercedes doesn't mean others don't, she shouldn't just be killed off because you don't like her. She's my best character in HO atm.

What leaked scripts?

She is a tersome character who has had the same storylines on a loop for the last 5 years. I have no idea why people like her. She has no redeeming features at all and the character had her day years ago. I'm surprised anyone likes her! Over on imdb boards she is the number one most hated charcater, Sinead a clsoe second.

I just think it's silly the way she's saying they're doing a huge McQueen plot with the whole family this time with big stunts as though it's a new thing. Just reminds me of when Niall kidnapped the whole McQueen family to the church and blowing it up?

I agree

Mercy has even said to Ste that if he breaks JP's heart she will break his head. The McQueen women all seem to be quite protective of JP as he's the only boy. When she finds out her baby brother was actually raped (apart from being shocked & upset for him). I think she will want to kill Finn for it.

When I googled imdb boards, one of the first suggestions was "imdb boards are terrible"

Just like Mercedes.

I'd actually love for Mercedes to attack Ste, so Leela could kill her.

Then we'd have one more less McQueen.

Yeah cause 5 years ago she fake kidnaped her son, covered for murder, got kidnapped by Clare, Killed Browning and shot Grace.

Mercedes has had so much character development. When she first arrived she was just the local slut who slept with anyone who asks but after Silas kidnapped her she's really turned from a slut to a very deranged woman who's done awful things. There's no dennying there's been loads of character development. But I like Mercedes 2.0 since her Silas kidnap she has really come on as a character.

What happened to Michaela? Was the actress removed cos of problems ?

She was fired after announcing that she was leaving on Twitter and leaking stories in 2010.

When she came back in 2011 (and then wasted IMO) she left on her own accord in 2012.

Thanks, she was my least fav original McQueen, but always felt she just vanished
