I'm actually quite annoyed they didn't show the initial reactions. That was all I was looking forward too.

I would've liked to have seen the Mitchells' initial reaction to it and more focus on them.
Quote:
Half an hour on soley Jack & Max and the Mitchell house would've been poweful enough. We didn't even get to see Honey's reaction - her and the sisters had become really close.

What a bitty, disappointing episode. The only one of the family we saw getting told was Phil.....

Jack is going to completely blame Roxy for Ronnie's death, which is kind of true except he will never know that Ronnie was also enthusiastic about a dip in the pool, and was more interested in behaving like a silly teenager rather than spending the night with her new husband or checking on her children

On another note why is Lee offering to pay for something he knows he can't afford! Surely he should be looking to pay his debts off, not increase them!

They should have killed off Lee instead of R&R.

I know that was what I was thinking but I knew EastEnders would take the boring option as usual and go straight to the next morning. That's the one thing I hate about EastEnders, I want it to continue in the next episode exactly where it left off but they rarely do and it's always a major let down.

I'm loving Stacey's reactions to Michelle
![]() Thought the spread of the news was dealt with well. Scott pulled out a good performance. Max is interesting, does he feel guilty about giving Roxy the drugs or is he not feeling any emotion? Is he really a changed man? Thought all the talk of support groups was a tad premature, she's just died. Good episode overall. |

Surely he should also be blaming himself for not going looking for her after she didn't return in 20 minutes as they agreed. He was even awake at the time.

the police would surely refer to them under their actual names. even the wedding had Ronnie as Veronica

Why would Max still have a key for that hotel room?

Won't the drugs be found in Roxy's system when they do the postmortem?

What's going to happen to the presents? Leave them in the square so that Jay and Lee don't need to be conspicuous when going on the rob?

Was such a shame it was a bit flat tonight as many people would be tuning in. It felt jarring against last nights episode. We should have had Max or a member of staffs reaction to finding them, it should have felt like the action continued in some way at least. It felt really detached and like they hadn't died at all.

Looks like I'm not the only one disappointed / downright baffled by what they chose to leave out in favour of countless scenes of someone *almost* breaking the news.

to protect her reputation?
![]() Seriously though, an underwhelming episode. Agree with those who said it was a shame the timeline had moved on to after the bodies were found - plus all those scenes where characters were almost told what had happened. They really missed an opportunity to capitalise on a dramatic episode. |

I wonder if it was because they had filmed several possible endings for R &R and so the subsequent scenes (not showing the discovery, and telling people) had to be 'generic' enough to fit each possible demise?

Max is interesting, does he feel guilty about giving Roxy the drugs or is he not feeling any emotion? Is he really a changed man . I must have missed that bit

Oh is that why he was so concerned about getting rid of the drugs! I thought he was trying to protect Roxy although once they do a post mortem they will know she'd taken drugs.
I must have missed that bit ![]() ![]() Although he may also have gotten rid of the drugs to protect himself as well since his finger prints would be on the packet from when he first found them. He probably didn't want to take the chance of being caught up in another death after what happened with Lucy. |

I'm soooo disappointed, what an anti-climax.
It was an ok episode but far, far from what I had expected or hoped for. The reactions were very underwhelming, Scott Maslen's acting was mediocre to say the least. Oh dear, it could have been so much more dramatic. |

What I didn't understand was why the FLO was insisting Jack identify the bodies? He was clearly in no state to do that? He mentioned their mother Glenda, surely she could do it, or even Max?
I agreed as well far too early to be mentioning support groups. |
