True, but because she was shut in the freezer, the rest of the Carters got to hear about her blackmail. Which put an end to it, and hopefully gave her a lesson in tolerance.
And we don't know what the Cokers' parting shot will be - announce it in front of the whole pub, maybe?

Off-screen as the budgets cut won't allow it ya know

Good theory!

Denise seems to get sexier by the episode a real looker for a 40 something

A good episode last night. I loved Denise's scenes with Mas and Kim. His reaction to learning about Phil being the dad was priceless. Gonna miss him. Loved Dee's line outside The Albert about him surviving 30 years of marriage to Zainab

If that wasn't his last episode (Nitin said it on Twitter), when is it? He doesn't appear to be listed in next week's episodes.

Also, did Mick realise that Kathy was Buster's bit on the side? His expression at The Vic after he served her seemed to suggest it. Quite liked her final scene with Buster just as he left the Beale house. A shame didn't get the duff duff, just HAD to be Phil although I get that his condition is really really bad now.

Masood should had his Julia last night but it seems he'll appear again in a few weeks. If he had the last scene yesterday, it would have been a good episode for him to leave on.

Buster was let down majorly by the writers. I don't blame Karl for leaving.

Shirley hasn't had a duff duff all year. I'm beyond bored of this Phil drama.

After a few decent episodes I genuinely thought last nights offering was awful, I very rarely vote EE down but I voted bad on the poll

Babe doesn't have a problem with tolerance. Her problem is with greed.

The best thing about this episode was Phil's moving tribute to "Cheese and Pickle, Basic?"

Would have thought they'd have given Mass a better send off, didn't even get a Julia

I think he has an appearance to come yet Grouty although it might be a couple of weeks away

Finally caught up on Friday's ep.

Glad Mick said it straight to Buster. He should've just dumped Shirley before deciding to play away.

Yes, you are stupid Sharon. Forever going back to that lumbering brute after the countless lies and pain he's wrought.

The romance behind affairs tend to continually fizzle out once it's no longer an affair.

REALLY, now, Linda?! It's been months since you out found out and it only now bothers you...

At death's door of his own free will, Shirley, just leave the man to his just desserts finally.

Omg. Mas knows Dee's baby dad is Phil!! Just wonder what the rest of the square will think when they find out...

Haha at Mas saying what we've all been thinking

How has Phil seriously mustered such devotion from anyone, especially family, it boggles the human mind!

Bye Buster. You cowardly fish.

Goodbye DILF Mas

Masood hasn't left yet.

yep he hasn't yet ..

Ps don't worry i'm building the thread for tonight as we speek
