It has been utter rubbish since the second we saw who killed Lucy.
A disastrous climax like no other to such a hyped story. |

Shabnams story is yet again turned into a all about shirley
![]() Shes had 1,00,000 stories under dtc (i know in eggerating but she has had loads).nits at the stage where either she and danny dyer have to go or dtc needs to go. denise hasnt had a big story, lola, whitnet, lee, pam, Paul act as extras. Characters like linda and shabnam, masood, dean are made sexondary characters in THEIR own storylines. Its disgusting. Gove dtc a spin off called the shirley and mock carter saga and be done with it. Thats all i hatr with the cf twist as it inevitably has made it another shirley centered story when shes already a big part or has been a big part in so many over this last year and half. |

Was there really any need for this dull Stacey/Kush/Shabnam (+ Martin) storyline? Why spend so many months building up to Kush and Shabnam finally getting together only to have him lusting over Stacey as soon as they do? What a waste of time.
And then we had Carol whinging about being on her own in last night's episode. Erm, whose fault is that, Carol? You practically ran a half-dead David out of town with a pitchfork! Don't even get me started on the Roxy/Charie/Ronnie tedium. |

I'm only watching on and off at the moment. None of the current stories engage me in the slightest and all of my favourite characters have either left in the past year: Kat, Lauren, Peter, Lucy, Janine, Johnny, David or have become really boring such as Stacey. I just don't enjoy watching currently.
All the affair plots are just complete tedium |

To be fair there has been more Masood in the story so far! how's about we see how the story goes before writing it off as for the comments on the carter show, mick and Linda have barely featured for weeks and everyone else has been supporting other stories. It's like no matter what EE does someone complains I personally think this week has been very good. not a great fan of the shabnam, kush, stacey and martin thing cos Kush should be sticking to the woman he chose but in last nights ep Kush cane across as controlling towards Stacey in his jealousy so I am interested to see where that goes. |

As if that makes it ok. |

The only storyline that I don't like, is the Kush and Stacey one. It feels like it has come out of nowhere. They haven't spent that much time together, but all of a sudden, it seems like Stacey has strong feelings for Kush. Stacey should know better, because she has cheated before. Kush is also bad, especially because he made so much effort to get with Shabnam. I'm looking forward to the end of the story.

Stories may start about other cjaravters but all seem to turn into about shirley. First phil and sharons marraige, then lindas rape now shabnams baby. Itll be les' affair next or the lucy beale case. And i currently think that a This is where dyer took that break. Lindas not so much of an issue woth hogging the screen. When micks about its him and then its shirley all the tome bar her break. Shirley might as well have a spin off show. |

Its obvious given shabnams lack of interest and shirlets backstory with jimbo dying from cf.

Jesus Christ, people have zero patience. Just stop watching if you feel like that rather than taking up a thread to complain so childishly.
Storylines have yet to begin and are only just starting. Stacey has feelings for Kush because she is feeling lonely and beginning to feel down about her life, this has already been explained in previous scenes, again, the story is just beginning and is likely to explore her condition. |

Just stop watching. That's what I've done.
- The newer characters look like they've been designed by an embryo No dimensions. No depth. - The older characters have been destroyed. - The storylines are poorly researched and poorly handled. - Characters go in circles. Dialogue goes in circles. - The Carters. I'll leave that one there. - Screen time is shared unequally. - Stunt celebrity casting - Block storytelling - Shock twists that are great for about 30 seconds I was holding out for Kathy's return, but God knows that will end up a disappointment. |

There has been numerous stories of which Shirley has not been involved in that you have failed to mention. Also this story has only just begun, we don't know what is going to happen yet. So far it has been more about Masood and Shabanm and now we are seeing Shirley and Dean's part. It will involve all characters. Jumping the gun springs to mind here.
The haters were like the cat who'd got the cream when Shirley sided with Dean and are desperate for her not to be shown in a positive light ever and for that situation to remain unresolved. The hysteria from one or two last night - like genuine fear - over the CF development was truly bizarre. I think some what has been said has been massively insulting to the Cystic Fibrosis experts with whom the show has been working, actually. |

This week has been very poor I admit that. However, it's best to stick with it as things could improve. I understand about Camel Toe aka Shirley being everywhere, but we know she's DTC pet.
The show is haemorraging viewers, and that's because some of the storylines are either drawn out (Dean raping Linda), or stupid (Sharon v Kim at the Albert). I don't like Kush going off with Stacey either, he fought for Shabnam and therefore should stick with her, even if she can be hard work. I think the Ben/Paul/Abi love-triangle is interesting as it's Ben coming to terms with his sexuality. I think if Dean does get away with everything, it will be costly mistake that EE may never recover from. |
