wow no thread yet?!

anyway good episode, a bit of a filler. The Baldwin stuff is moving OK, Liked the scenes in the pub with Sunita and the girls. Amber is great, David and Phil is getting interesting and Tyronne and Nathan exchanging tips on waxing was funny.

6.5/10

Who was the girl with the guy taking the photo, she looked familiar, she was also talking with Tyronne (i think that's his name, the short mechanic?), I don't watch this programme.

I found tonights episode to be quite average if I'm honest. I just feel that plots are going round in circles with no real direction. The new producer seriously needs to get his hands dirty because he's got some hard work ahead of him.

Not a strong episode. It felt a little "bitty" & more of a filler episode than anthing else. This was perhaps down to the fact that there wasn't particularly any dominant storyline in the episode at all.

Very little seemed to be happening in most of the storylines.

Dev & Sunita are still arguing ~ no surprised there then, & Shelley, Frankie, Deirdre, Betty & Violet gave her a pressie. The best part of this story thread was the scene between Shelley & Sunita in the back room when they talked about dumping Dev & Charlie.

The Platt storyline moved very little as well, beyond the fact that Phil tried to establish some sort of cease-fire with David, which failed. David, of course attempted to bait him again but none of this was as good as the stuff we got on Monday.

Not interested at all in the Surprise The Bride storyline although Tyrone & Nathan coming over all "Brokeback Mountain" was quite amusing as was Kevin taking the p!$$ out of Nathan in The Rovers.

Not much development in the Mike storyline either. We had yet another example of him not remembering something. You have to wonder how many more we're going to get before he admits that something is wrong & seeks medical advice.

5 out of 10.

Average episode, a bit of a filler. I note it was written by Patrea Smallacombe, who used to write for The Young Doctors in the 70s and PCBH in the 80s

Wow what a small thread so far.

Not an amazing episode yet not crap.

Best bit for me was Tyrone & Nathan comparing chests. Made me chuckle a bit.

Baldwin saga moving nicely. Glad the continuity was good tonight with the engagement rings. I knew exactly what rings were bought and at what time of the year and they didn't cock it up.

A nice Battersby free episode which can't be a bad thing.

I liked the scenes with Sunita and the girls.

I watched the first one just to see who was on but they're all a bunch of nutters and non-entities so I'm not bothering with it

Can't see any problem with it. Its just a competition prize in line with the show. It didn't change the show itself, so can't see a problem

A bit of a holding episode. Interesting tactics from David. Looks like the much-talked about "letters from Hillman" could well follow on from this scenario. Mildly amusing homo-erotic garage scene.
