Still, as you say, it was good to watch. |

Yes, fantastic climax to the Den storyline, its been gripping viewing on and off for 9 months now, my only concern is where EastEnders will go from here. i know its not all wrapped up yet, but i doubt the storyline can offer a climax like tomights epi again. It's like corrie and the tricky dicky episode, fantastic viewing, but corrie hasn't been able to produce a storyline like that since, and that was 2 years ago!

As much as I am enjoying the conclusion of this storyline, it is also tinged with Sadness.
What a fantastic Character Chrissie has been, she was one of a few who was an instant hit for me. The other thing is I finally have to say goodbye to the Legend that is Den Watts.

I've got two points to make:
ONE Last nights episode was great, Rob Gittens did a superb job having to cram an awful lot into 28 minutes, he's obviously a credible writer or they wouldn't have asked him to write for the programme. Some of the comments on here made about him are quite childish. There were loads of great moments; the end of the course and the SLAP, Chrissie in the taxi being stopped by Kat, Ian telling Jane his reasons for buying the Vic. Although personally for me, my favourite had to be Chrssie walking through Albert Sq with Jake so she could get to the cafe without anyone suspecting anything. Nothing was said but sometimes silence says more then dialogue in drama, Chrissies acting skills shone. Did you see her face at the end? Someone give that woman an award. TWO These forums. Is it me or are they slowly turning into the way that the Eastenders forums were a couple of years ago? I've never seen so many pointless threads and postings. |

KO by Sharon! I loved it! Chrissie's expression at the end looked more like she was playing a game. The lack of remorse is quite disturbing. The episode was so good that I this is all I can write. Perfection. A+

Some of the comments on here made about him are quite childish. He was okay last night, but in an episode of that magnitude I was expecting more than 'okay', I was expecting terrific. I thought Richard Davidson's dialogue was far more impressive in Monday's episode. I hope they continue to use him more regularly. Quote:

I thought it was a great episode - but wished at was longer - say 45 mins. I can remember looking at my watch with 5 minutes to go and thinking 'how come they're all still in the Square?'
Fab ending - it was great to see Sharon finally getting something to get her teeth into away from Shannis. One thing that bothered me was the Ruby/Johnny situation. How has she all of a sudden forgiven him? He was about to commit murder, drove Tina away and hasn't changed one bit. |

generally a good episode, which had me hooked. I was going to watch Spin City, then EE at 10pm (but couldn't bare to miss Chrissy's downfall)
my only quibbles were Jake & Chrissie just hanging around the house, surely that was a bit risky. It wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility that the Mitchells would come back (Nana Moon's a good liar though, despite being loopy) the double false trails thing was a bit contrived (and Ian's reasons for wanting the Vic). Also I can't believe the police would just let Sharon speak to/slap Chrissie while they just stood there in the background agree with those that suggested Chrissie would have been better off getting out of London first, before trying to flee the country (but then again this is a soap) I still wanted her to get away with it, but it's seems only Mitchells get away with killing people I know Chrissie is "gonna do the right thing" and keep Zoe out of it, but I can't see how Zoe can get away with borderline attempted murder (self defense argument is bit flimsy - imo) |

However to be kind to RG - maybe they had already shot their bolt plotwise. I felt we had 'done' all the tension in previous episodes. But to be less kind, I think if they had given this episode to Richard Davidson, it would have been twice as good. Yet poor RD gets mainly really run of the mill episodes to write - why do the producers have a fixation with Rob Gittins? (I am beginning to suspect that Sarah Phelps has left, I can't actually remember the last episode she wrote and she would normally be wheeled out for an ep like this.) (Like the idea of Lucy Beale taking out Billy )I was sure that she will get Grant's return episode but instead TJ got it and did a fantastic. I was also sure she would get this episode but instead she wrote this Friday episode. This means Sarah Phelps has not done any work for Grant yet. I did read somewhere here that someone said Sarah Phelps is writing the Xmas Day and New Year Day episodes in which two couple will leave The reason why Mr Gittins got last nights episode is simple under JY first era at EE, RG was one of the key writers. And if you had watched EE on UKGold in the last few year you would have see that a many of the key episodes were by RG. He is also been writing for EE longer than any other writer, SP has only been there for 3 years whereas RG it nearly 16 years!! Here is more info about RG: Rob Gittins Last edited by iloveeastenders : 09-11-2005 at 11:11. |

Agreed .You make it hard for me Sarah Phelps has writen Friday's episode. and she has done the Christmas ones along side Tony Jordan which is the first time he has writen an episode with someone else.

I completely see your reasoning re JY and RG, and I suppose I shouldn't be surprised (this is the bbc) - but being there longest shouldn't mean you get the best gigs unless you are best at them, and IMO the results onscreen say he isn't. |

Yes, I have defended Rob Gittins in the past and pointed to his earlier work as being good (the 2002 episodes are currently airing on UKGold and I have referred to them before in his defence.) BUT...He almost seems like a different writer these days. Jaded is an excellent way of describing his recent work, imo. To anyone who thinks my comment was harsh, well I'm quite happy to praise EE when they do something right, but I refuse to praise something which I think is below par just to 'tow the party line.' |
