![]() Where are you up to again? Because 2015 for the most part is dross. The show has only really picked up its pace in 2016. You'll meet the nightingales who are a breath of fresh air. The Donovan brothers, not so much. 😶 In terms of stories, you've still got the killer plots that need tying up and don't get me wrong there is still some rubbish you've got to wade though but what I've noticed is that there is a greater cohesion of characters and the writers have managed to develope relationships and friendships you actually care for. I don't want to spoil anything you havent seen but I find lately there is a greater focus on characters and thier stories. |

Well all the new characters are absolutely atrocious so I see no need to get to know them as hopefully a new producer will be along soon and they will be axed.
Its good to see Amy back though. Personally ide rather they just reboot the show back to 2011 so we can forget the whole sorry past 5 years ever happened ![]() |

I'm watching August of 2016, so I've missed out on the rubbish parts hopefully
![]() I know what you mean, I actually enjoy watching some of these characters and the storylines don't always go the route that I expect This year you can really tell that they trying to take the show into a new era and for me, it is working. I find myself wanting to watch the next episode and the bulk of the characters are decent imo. |

It's gotten much better since Lindsey was Silas-ed. Birkwood seems to have stopped killing a character every couple of weeks.
Having some good dependable actors like David Easter or Karl Collins for example and having Nicole Barber-Lane back full time has helped as well. I'm also loving how Warren is being written this time around. |

You've started at the right time then. Half the roscoes are gone (they were overkill at one point) and that ridiculous gloved killer plot is finally over. The best story of last year was probably cleo's abuse plot but that was about it.

Did you ever see Big Brother's Bit on the Side when Rylan was hosting and the 'actor' who plays Scott was on the panel? It was like Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory, except not funny or intelligent.

Yeah, I think I'll do that for any more episodes he's in. I can't understand what JP is thinking, James seems cool and at least he isn't orange
![]() Scott was brought in as a strange kidnapper and poisoner then when fog horn was sacked and diane left to have a baby he didnt have a purpose, and its pretty hated so they paired him with JP to make us like him, and make JP be the bad guy, so we felt sorry for scott, but we all started shipping JP and James and wanted scott gone even more Scott is horrific Oh yes JPs dad turned out to be a woman, who was a man but had a sex change, he was a 1 night stand when Myra had broken up with her bf |

Oh yeah, I have only seen Freddie and Joe so far, so that's better. I am also glad to hear that they finished the gloved hand killer storyline because I didn't like Lindsey
" for obvious reasons ![]() Luckily you missed the rest of the family, and many other terrible characters too ![]() Also, I'm not sure what site you're using to catch up, but www.youpak.com is a great site. It's a mirror of YouTube that's region free, and there's plenty of episodes, past and present

Somehow I missed hearing what happened to Lindsey, that's good to know! Myra and Warren help to bring some familiarity as they remind me of the years when I watched Hollyoaks more
