whats odd is that despite a serious injury and being in a com, we never see Ronnie having any check ups. You don't just get back to normal like that so quick. They showed her with a cane for a while but they should have done more.

You don't need to see everything on screen to know she still does get check ups.

I cannot stand Ronnie. She has been ruined and Charlie is a better parent than her.

I LOL'd at that, given the characters always been nutty as a fruitcake (well, not right at the very start, but from when they brought Archie in)

Ronnie should have a check up. Her character is still interesting though.

Quite honestly the worst character at the minute.

No problem with Sam Womack, its just you know your mood is going to be pulled down by her constant mardy persona

Ronnie used to be one of my favourite characters. But she's just foul these days. It's like she walking around on Valium.

How did you work that one out, at the beginning he wanted nothing to do with him and abandoned him, you can't make up for that. Ronnie will protect him no matter what but Charlie is just using the kid to get to Ronnie.

That's true that in the beginning, he wanted nothing to do with Matthew but he manned up and he spent a lot of time with him when Ronnie was in a coma. He struggled sometimes but he was there for him when Ronnie was in a coma. Obviously that wasn't Ronnie's fault but since she woke up from coma, she didn't spend enough time with Matthew. She cared more about Ronnie/Charlie than Matthew's welfare. She looked bored when she was looking after Matthew on her own and she said to Vincent that she had enough of watching daytime shows when she was at home looking after her son. Her son should be the most important person in her world. When Ronnie slept with Vincent in her home, she looked annoyed when Matthew was calling out for her. After that, she was staring at the "Ibiza" poster and it sounds like she wanted to go back partying in Ibiza and she was fed up of motherhood. Ronnie chucked Charlie out and refused to let him seeing Matthew on regular occasions which annoyed Charlie. I'm hoping Ronnie will be a better mother soon but right now, she seems to care more about Roxy than her own son.

It could have been a good storyline if Ronnie struggled to bond with Matthew after waking up from coma but no, she was more interested in her own love life, her sister's dramas and Kathy.

Of course it's just my opinion but hopefully Ronnie will be a better mother.

Agreed why did they even bring her back after baby swapgate? they aren't doing anything with her just more ruin and damnation.
Only now is she acknowledging Matthew, why did they make Charlie boring? why make Roxy sleep with another of Ronnie's blokes all rubbish and downfall.

I saw those scenes differently. She was feeling bad when she heard Matthew over the baby monitor and the looking at the poster was to show how exciting her life used to be whilst in the present she was watching bargain hunt with boring Charlie. She needed to change things.

Ronnie was my favourite character in eastenders and I mostly watched for her the first few years, through the whole Archie story and after she just shined. The babygate was of course awful but Sam Womack was still outstanding. I have no idea why she is putting up with this rubbish she's been given. I understand Ronnie wanting to leave Charlie after he slept with Roxy, but she should never have forgiven either of them. I just don't get it at all and I loved Ronnie and Charlie until the car accident, now I just find it awkward and unbelievable to watch:

How would you be if your father in-law tried o kill you and your baby and your husband has an affair while in a coma, I think anyone would change dramatically.

Its almost like the writers want her to be miserable like she is not meant to be happy ever...... and that sucks, i liked her when she was allowed her occasional happiness.

ps also fricking hate this Vincent stuff hope Kim knocks him the hell out. waster.

It's all fair and well stepping up but the fact is he abandoned the baby for the 1st few weeks/month of his life and decided he wanted nothing to do with him, you cNt go back on that. Ronnie never abandoned her kid, just isn't interacting much but she still looks after him and cares for him.

I actually think it would've been better if Ronnie returned towards the end of 2014. They could've written Carl White out in a different way. Sam's constant breaks gave us no continuity last year. Charlie could have been paired up with Stacey perhaps. Roxy was good with Aleks.

The decimation of Ronnie's character is really sad to watch. She used to be utterly brilliant, engaging, beautifully written and wonderfully acted. Now... ugh. It's not her anymore, it's barely a 10th rate imitation. I think Sam must feel the same way on some level, she's clearly not putting in the effort that she used to.
