Tonight felt like the end of SOC's first week and he pressed the reset button on a number of characters and storylines that he wanted to put an end to quickly.

I think this was a brave move, he obviously means business and axing 4 in one episode and not even giving them good exits almost felt like it was his way of exercising his power to show the cast he's in control of things now.

Everything on screen tonight was planned well before SOC started working on Eastenders.

That doesn't mean to say SOC hasn't had input into the goings on this week!

Lets face it he's been in the role a few months now, if a producer can't change things then he doesn't really have any control of the show and it kind of undermines his authority as the person in charge.

There was a distinct noticeable way the episode moved along tonight. It was well directed and to the point. It basically moved at a pace a soap should. No dragging things out for half an hour. I wouldn't be surprised if SOC is having a lot more input than people think.

Don't believe everything you see on instagram.

That post of the holiday pic was actually taken when he went to florida back in April.
I think it was a double bluff because he looked like he was going out the show around 2 months back when it first looked like he was off after the start of the drugs storyline.

He then came back to film the stuff we saw this week and the drugs stuff the week before because Ross Kemp had to film out of sync.

As for being spotted last week with Harry Reid (Ben) in the dressing room he was there because Harry was filming that day and they were driving straight from there to Bournemouth to attend Danny Dyers wedding.

I believe therefore he has left, but obviously no confirmation and maybe the door is being left open.

Today's and yesterday's episodes was far better than what has been shown over the last month or two especially this week's offerings.

Just me then. I thought it was dreadful tonight. What was the point of bringing back Michael Cashman, someone Dot has not spoken about for years. Would he really have wanted her to go to his wedding so much that he returned to get her on his wedding day, I think not. Amazed to see Courtney leaving the square with just a handbag. As for Grant and Mark WTF was the point of that unless they are returning to the Square.

actually im not going on about instragram(i dont use it) numerous people have met Jamie at Elstree in the last couple of week, he is still filming, if Jay had left we would of had an article from Eastenders confirming it after the episode seeing as Jay has been in it for 10 years, even the Metro have basically confirmed that he is coming back
