Just watching her scenes where she told Reenie what happened with Derek when she was younger. What a star!

Eastenders never used her to anything of her full potential (apart from Bubbly's in the fridge!)

Is that from last nights channel 4 episode?

If so totally agree!

I dodnt really like or feel comfortable with the cleo aspect of the storyline but how is Reenie going to feel when she finds out the truth, I reckon Pete is a dead man walking

Yeh last night's channel 4 episode.

I'm still watching now. I hope Reenie realises that she is saying things in exactly the same way Porsche did...and she didn't believe her either

It was one of the standout Hollyoaks episodes this year, it was brilliant.

I know, I think like marlene she will realise, maybe cos it happened to her she doesn't want to think/accept that it has happened to her kids.

I haven't seen tonights yet gonna catch up at the weekend.

oh and agree Attitude, Hollyoaks is very good at the moment

I hope Reenie realises what Pete did to Porsche, Celine & Cleo soon.

I wouldn't say Hollyoaks is very good ATM, tonight's E4 was utter b*llocks but they do have some good episodes on the odd occasion.

no one has died for a few weeks thats good to me, though if Derek is dead then thats a good thing.

It seems to be a bit more steady and to be honest the majority of then storylines are much more interesting than the other soaps.

Raped her repeatedly as a teen and fathered Porche.

She is Reenie, she was telling Nana.
I agree though, outstanding

Yet she accused her own daughter of lying

Reenie is horrible but I love Zoe.

I think the point is that a victim of abuse can still be vulnerable and trusting. Reenie believes she knows what an abuser is because she thinks of Derek. She loves Pete and he is probably different to Derek. So even though its her daughter accusing him of things she'll refuse to believe it because she thinks she knows what abuse looks like.

We've had Nana and Reenie. The next will be Porsche and Reenie. Then finally Cleo.

I'm afraid I don't rate Zoe Lucker's acting. I hate the way she speaks in that affected undertone.

On another note, how many members of this family have been victims of rape/sexual abuse? Off the top of my head - Jacqui, John Paul, Nana, Reenie, Porsche, Cleo. How unlikely is that?

Zoe Lucker always has been a fantastic actress. Streets ahead of pretty much everybody else on that soap.

Incredible scenes this week, it's a shame some of the silly storylines overshadow these moments.

I think with Nana, Reenie, Porsche and Cleo it's to highlight how certain things can be passed generation to generation - i.e. both Reenie and Nana not realising/believing their own children even though they've gone through the same thing. It's an interesting concept.

Very interesting and really rather sad as well!

Zoe was fantastic.

I think Nana and Reenie just let him die rather than killed him. They didn't call an ambulance as quickly as they could have.

Even though I don't watch Hollyoaks, I agree with the second half of your post - Zoe Lucker is a very underrated actress who deserved a lot more than what she was given in Eastenders. It's a shame really that, however comedic it may be, 'Bubbly's in the Fridge' is her only standout moment on the show when SO much more could've been done with both her and the character she played.
