O my god after all the hype just what I was talking about earlier that was awful.
Nothing really happened till the lasts 10 minutes nothing really happened even then. Everyone already new Gavin would be Sharons dad so no surprise there. Think the best bit was Aunt babe and Elaine. The whole Stacey stuff was ok nothing really special we already know who was watching her and more than likely that's probably Kats son.

Agreed. The only stuff I was really interested in was the Gavin plot and even that resulted in a twist most of us had guessed months ago.

Very dull.

I think I've seen enough mobile phones ringing to last me a lifetime.

All these people scared witless and running about because of Vincent Pinner.

It was overhyped for what it was. Pretty boring overall.

Yes but the last ten minutes was great! EE's problem is it drags out stories.

I enjoyed most of it, it's just it lacked any sort of impact. The cliffhanger should have been a lot more exciting and it wasn't.

It's not like that household are all going to die at the hands of Gavin.

I enjoyed it, although it had its faults.

Some of it actually made me jump, and the Kathy/Phil/Ben/Sharon/Gavin scenes were great IMO. Especially the reveal for the end.

I just thought it dragged at certain points, and could have been reduced to a 30 minute episode, or even a 35 minute episode or something like that. Overall, I thought it was a good episode though, and the best episode in weeks. It had me on the edge of my seat at some points.

I enjoyed the first 50 mins and thought the last ten mins was a damp squib.

The thing is near xmas DTC will hype it all again saying how amazing the xmas stuff is in the end it will probably be a complete let down. Remember last year saying it was going to be Armageddon again nothing happened till the last couple minutes.

I enjoyed it, was over-hyped, but then most soap stuff is.

I'd say Bad, no, but Overhyped definitley.

I particularly enjoyed the Stacey SL because it wasnt just about Stacey and her Baby but they linked in how Shabnam was effected long term by the stillbirth and Lee's Depression which I hope will now come to the forefront again.

I think the Kathy stuff was 90% build up full of false moments which I didnt find tense personally and then the cliffhanger left me underwhelmed because we had already worked it out.

It was all to predictable. Of course the baby was going to be fine, Mick was always going to relent and join forces with Ronnie...and who didn't know that Gavin was Sharon's dad. Oh and Kyle has a key...no surprise there either.

It was OK though.

I agree. It drags things out to the point you no longer care.

I wasn't disappointed because I knew it would be overhyped.

Vincent Pinner? Nah! Jesus Christ!

He was the original JC Superstar in the West End

Gavin is just missing a walking stick for this to be complete.

They should of concentrated more on the Gavin and Kathy Phil storyline and nevermind about the rest. the Kathy and Gavin and the Mitchells scenes were pretty scary

Well it's not like you're forced into watching it tbh. I liked the Mitchell and Stacey stuff and the Duff duff was brilliant.

It did feel like it was slightly overhyped as being scary but meh.

I think there are a few remote stone age tribes in new guinea who didn't know this was going to happen but not a surprise to most.

Of course things are held off until the last 10 minutes, that always happens.
