Good evening!

Posting this early as I'm not about tomorrow... I'll pop back and 'bump' it later tomorrow if it drifts onto page forty eight or something...

So. Here we go. Thursday night's edition of Walford wildness. I know there's a lot of criticism out there at the moment for the state of the show, but personally I'm finding it refreshing *takes cover*

ANYWAY! (could EE mention President Trump *shivers* tonight?)

WHAT'S HAPPENING TONIGHT?

Hmm, Lee's boss was in Star Wars, and also voices The Ood from Doctor Who. I knew his voice was familiar.

More of the office environment tonight, then. I'm going to dread watching what Lee goes through during the episodes where Oz appears.

Thank you for the thread, QV!

Not a problem, guys

I found the other day's office scenes really hard to watch. I'm actually finding the whole Lee storyline really harrowing. I think they're doing it really well.

Same. It feels uncomfortably realistic and exactly the type of storyline EE should be tackling. But it's horrible to watch.

I agree. I think it might be a case of, for me anyway, recognising some of Lee's behaviour and troubles as that of my own. For example, the money issues - I have taken out a payday loan once before and I was lucky enough to be able to repay on time and I got out of that particular hole, but my heart sinks every time Lee receives a text from them because I know what that's like and how it contributes to your mental state.

I also think it's really hard to watch because the audience can see that, actually, Lee's family and wife are so supportive of him and love him so much, yet he can't seem to overcome his own insecurities and see that for himself. If only he told Mick and Linda about the loan, I'm sure they'd do everything they could to help him. If only he told Whitney they couldn't afford a big flat and everything, I'm sure she'd accept it and support him and contribute more. But he's promising her the world and Whitney's had a rough time of it, and she's always dreamed of being a princess, so to speak.

I really think it's the show's strongest story so far this year.

Thanks for the thread QV.. I'm glad they are dealing with depression, it is to be fair a hair illness to put onto tv as its a brain illness which is unseen..

Roxy love - why not look on Ebay or shop round the market? Probably get a better house for half price.
