The scene with Whitney at his offices and speaking to Os was awkward. It's a pride issue - and depression does distort perspectives in life. Whitney can't be that gullible, as mentioned why doesn't she get work and Lee just takes a bit of time out to be strong.
A lovely touch with Jay and Will building the model plane. So sad and low with the nicking of the ring off the dead corpse. Addiction does destroy lives, and the ones who make the money off others misery such as dealers just causes people to turn to thieving and other crimes. It's easy to call people junkies and what have you, but the majority do want to get off the drugs and I think the sentences for drug dealing are laughable. I do think it's character assassination with Jay, but that cow Star is to blame for his downfall. It was good scenes with Billy and Mrs Simpson's son too.
Libby - considering she's clever, she doesn't know the concept of pregnancy. The vegan food was a bit patronising to her Mum and Patrick. You can't force diets on to people. I think the talk with Kathy who has bought the Kathy I remember in the 1980s and 1990s did make her realise. I did like the banter with Carmel and Denise. Good friendship they have. As for her staying indefinitely, I can abide her....in small doses.
I'm glad Roxy has bonded with Amy, but I think Ronnie is right - she is only eight so it doesn't matter what you buy her. What she needs to do is look on Ebay or shop around for a doll's house. I'm sure there is some toy stall hidden away on the Square.
Cassandra / Geraldine and Kathy causing a furore at the community centre was laughable. I think she should be a permanent character with a family
7/10 - Decent episode.”

Whitney has a job working in The Vic
how low, least he is getting more screen time I suppose. That dead lady will come and haunt Jay now.
