Are there any spoilers for Denise?

I still think it's a cyst similar symptoms

I did like Bex's scenes with Stacey and how they are becoming close. Bex works best with her family.

Me too. I like Bex when she's with Martin or Stacey. They feel like more of a family than when she's with Sonia. Also Stacey doesn't preach at her.

No, nowhere confirms it. The Sun TV mags make it seem like she's pregnant with Kush's baby.

Something else he never apologised for
I think he did at the time albeit both characters were played by different actors back then

Thanks for the thread Neil
Sorry for being late to the party guys and gals


Awful writting for Jay tonight. That was so out of character for him.
I disagree that it's poor writing in this instance Joe. I have not always enjoyed the story line concerning Jay because it's a bit close to home for me as I've known somebody who had a similar experience and it didn't end well at all.

Jays downward spiral due to being on the register is all too familiar and happens all too often, in my opinion there should be some sort of rating on sexual offences because when you end up on the register it's all over for you as having a normal life is concerned. Jay turned to drugs and dealing due to being unable to get employment which is very realistic in the circumstances. Jay is now a desperate confused man who has turned back into the desperate little boy who lost his father in horrific circumstances. The writing of this story line has actually been on point and very realistic and acted extremely well.

Arthur has suddenly gone very Asian.
He's the son of God and can be whatever he wishes to be

haha Dot's not popin it !
Don't let her kid you Dot's been poppin' it for years

Courteney reminds me of Charlotte Coleman
She remind me of Courtney

Yay belinda

Lauren you cheeky cow.
Lauren is not a cow but I can understand your confusion as she does tell J-B to moove out her way on a regular basis

Got to give credit to Louise. She's only looking out for her big brother.
First time she's not been a hideous little bitch since she started the show

Denise is up the duff duff!
Well the child is guaranteed to come out with the same hairstyle as its father

The last time Ben face those people they beat him senseless. Has he been eating spinach if not why would round two be any different.
This time he pulls out a spanner and yells" YOU NEED SLIPPING DOWN "

Delivery on BH Monday?
They filmed it weeks ago

When have Mark and Shakil been mates
When did Pineapple head have mates ?

You can tell Arthur is Kush's now
He does not look like a horse

Jay and Ben are not very scary so I'm not sure how that will work.
Why do they assume they would win ?

Ben needs a few seriously harsh home truths, Les is right he is a self pitying little boy.
Well said

Oh for God's sake. Really, SOC?

I was just thinking that they could really do a good job with giving Denise a horrible, out of nowhere disease that can befall any of us at any time. God knows the actress has the talent for it, and it would be very well done, I'm certain of it. But nope. Yet another baby. This obsession with baby plots isn't a DTC thing - I think it's just ingrained into EastEnders.

See, an illness plot would take research. Time. Money. But a baby plot, with topless Kush in the middle... nice and cheap. How crap.

Lauren and Steven were up to something as well, I noticed. Hark at Lauren, living with the people who let her father rot. Oh, how I love this character, even now.

I literally will come out and say Ben Mitchell is by far the best thing about the show at the moment. That whole storyline has been brilliant. Well paced, well acted, involving other issues, such as Jay's estrangement, Phil's illness, Grant's return... it's just been very entertaining. Kudos to Harry Reid - I seriously hope this guy is sticking around. And Jay. Go Mitchells, in a nutshell.

Mark Jr (yet another casting from a Next catalogue by the look of it) and Courtney. Ewwwwww. No doubt this is how the whole Grant has a son thing is going to come out.

Average.
Average ? You must think that all episodes are crap as well

Awful writting for Jay tonight. That was so out of character for him.
He has nowhere to live so he doesn't mind going to the chokey

Damn. Those were some good scenes between Louise, Ben and Les [even if Jay did undo it all in the end].

I was smirking that she and Kush were having really rough sex throughout , but, ohhh, is she pregnant [somehow]?

Like how Lauren being a web designer now hasn't been dropped. It would've been very easy in-show to write that she choose to do something else, considering her first clients' grandson got murdered very shortly after she started that pitch....

A great everyday episode I thought.
