Shes not even phoning it in these days, more like sending it by post. I wish she had passed, then they could bin her off. Put Lo with Jay at least we might see him smile occasionally. He's been dragged down by abi for months.

That was also very bad. She's had 8 years to improve her acting but all she does is imitate Jo Joyner badly.
Jo Joyner had her good moments, IMO Lorna Fitzgerald as Abi has had next to none, I'd much rather Tanya still be around rather than Abi, she needs to go to uni for a few years and come back with a potential recast.

I didn't mean that as an insult to Jo Joyner. She's a good actress unlike Lorna Fitzgerald

It was all a bit amateur dramatics with the teens tonight. Abi actress is getting worse all the time. I think she actually managed to put in her worst performance ever in tonight's episode which is quite an accomplishment given the low quality of her previous work. Fatboy is embarrassing. He's more a cartoon than a person.

One thing I noticed about that group is that I can't imagine any of these people hanging out together. They just don't gel as a group of friends.
They're so dry and painful to watch! That's not because they're bad though! They're dry and painful to watch because everything they do is so cringe, their never given any decent storylines like the other teenagers were (stacey slater, michelle fowler) they're all just shoved together to 'hang out' and go on these silly little outings and go to all these parties, the exact reason no one wants to watch them, because the show still portrays them as school kids with all the silly love triangles

I like Abi. She shows a lot of traits of children of alcoholics and I wish they would look at the impact of her parent's relationship on her.

The teens are hardly featuring anymore and seem to have markedly improved with the absence of Dexter and Fatboy. This time last year everyone was complaining about them and fairly enough but they're hardly dominating the show anymore.

Did Abi fail her exams last year as well? It seemed a bit deja vu
Yes and she lied about it last year as well. Lazy.

I don't mind Lola, Jay, Nancy and Lee but the rest of them are just mind numbingly dull. Especially when they are all in a scene together. So much yawn, so so much yawn. Plus some questionable acting from Lorna Fitzgerald last night...

And they did it with Tamwar! It does feel like lazy plot-work.

Thanks so it's really Lola, abi and jay are regulars who are in a lot as teens.

It annoys me when all young people are referred to as teens in eastenders at all times without fail

I'm pretty sure Johnny is 19 as he's just finished his first year of uni. He may be 20 soon but probably not for another few months. You're right about the others though.

They are lazy writers, very lazy! The only decent storyline they've got going on is the nick cotton one! All the other soaps (minus corrie) have gritty storylines going on, and they're all very well acted out, EE has turned into the carter show just lately, and the mick and rainie stuff is terrible, a good autumn is needed... If not, they desperately need some new writers or storylines!

Nancy's not included right? Cause she has no friends...what is with that haha.

Even Lee is friendlier with them all, probably because of his relationship with Whitney but still...

Nancy and Lauren were mates lol, also Tam and Dexter are her mates, but the less said about Dexter the better.

She hasn't failed, she just hasn't got high enough grades to get her into Liverpool. She said she was going through clearing, so she might yet get into a lesser uni.

In Lorna's defence I thought she did well when Abi confronted Max about Lucy.

I don't have a problem with young people having storylines. They are the future of this show, after all. There are over 5 million teenagers in Britain - one in 12 potential viewers, so Eastenders has to represent them.
