This was a good episode tonight.

Loved the scenes between Jean and Stacey. Both Gillian and Lacey have handled the mental illness issues very well and this is the sort of drama both of these actresses can get their teeth stuck into. What is the key for? Does it link in with Sean? Poor Martin must be wondering what he has let himself in for! Liked Jeans scene with camel toe.

I am glad they have kicked off Lee's depression storyline. This is an issue that often occurs with peoples serving in the forces. Tanwar and Nancy are a cute couple, potential but will she stay and look out for her brother or spend time with Tam?

Sonia gets on my tits. Max is her uncle ffs. He is in his hour of need. I am glad they have highlighted the issues of unemployment and about property developers making homes out of reach for ordinary people. Great scenes with Carol and Max. Hope they are used a lot more before both actors leave.

At least we got a glimpse of Mick's sexy hairy chest

Ohh, lots of good character scenes tonight.

And, ahhh, I think I'm on the right track with my guess about Sean and that key: it went missing after his father 'died', so Jean is wondering wth Sean got it from.

Sean is definitely returning soon!

Jean is an excellent actress but her voice does my head in

Martin now looking very concerned about his involvement with Stacey. Jean is a bit high.

I'm glad that Nancy has moved in with Tam.

OK episode.

Last Thursday and Friday's eps were great the Carol/Shirley, Nancy/Tamwar scenes were fantastic at the end of last week. but I agree it was another good episode

Sean is Kat's Son, isn't he?

After putting it all together it is starting to make sence that Sean is Kats son.

It's already stretching the very fabric of reality that Kat didn't know she had another baby at the same time as Zoe, but TWO people [within the same family unit]? Come on writers. Don't do this.

Sonia is a right royal pain in the butt . Walzes into Carols with a live in lover and pontificates how Carol should run her home and her life

Stacey's about a million times more lucid and sane than Jean, so why would she be jealous?

Key probably opens something that contains evidence of the true parentage of Sean.

Sorcha PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Don't tempt fate
That is a truly horrific thought

The key obviously opens the door to Narnia. Come on, guys.

With Ben hiding inside screaming "I'm not coming out!" ?

That's putting it mildly she has become more & more hideous
Needs the rough end of a pineapple treatment (a pineapple shoved up her **** )
Carol should tell her where to go
And it's about time she washed her slimy hair thought nurses were supposed to be clean
Wish David would come back & whisk her off , that would be a nice exit storyline for her

Brilliant episode. Daran is one of the best.

Lacey and Gillian have a brilliant onscreen relationship. Both excel in dramatic scenes but my favourite was the dinner scene where they talked about finding happiness again. Beautifully written and acted. Jean is overbearing in high doses but I could watch a Stacey/Jean 2 hander week.

The key is intriguing but I'm apprehensive about what it may open.

Martin integrating into the Slater dynamic was brilliant to watch. The bipolar explanation was the best Startin scene yet. The Fowlers are being reborn and I want Mo Harris to play Lou Beale.

I love Max and Carol scenes. It's probably the only time I like Max. Lindsey and Jake bring out the best in each other and it feels like a realistic sibling relationship. The bike scene was great and it's the real end of an era with the Branning numbers depleting rapidly. Abi is more than capable of carrying the flag.

Nancy and Tamwar just works. A real endearing couple that we can root for. Tamwar has been reborn under the current team. He was a character that had really lost his way but he's got his mojo back.

Lee's depression is gathering pace. This will be Danny Boy's moment to prove himself. I also liked Mick and Shirley returning to supporting roles, it made a welcome change.

Sonia is driving away everyone who is close to her. Where is this leading or am I wrong in thinking she's intentionally infuriating?

A brilliant start to the week. Lacey and Gillian nailed it, superb. I won't mention the S word!

Nice scenes with Max and Carol. I loved it when they were on the bike together. A really enjoyable episode.

I pretty much agree with you apart from the Mo Harris bit, she is one of two characters I truly dislike along with Dean, I can live with the rest, those two are the only two I would axe if I had the opportunity

and kill people


Not quite. Ollie must be very patient




I don't remember any of this.


Why does she? She's an unrepentant killer.


The way she wears it, it's the key to her heart.
