I am finding the Stella/Ben storyline impossible to watch. I don't like it and I'm a stones throw away from watching it on teleport and fast forwarding this story. I see nothing watchable about a child being abused, what goes on between adults goes on, but seeing a child abused is sickening. I hope they wrap this one up fast.

Rob/May/Dawn I have had enough of. It's the most awful storyline yet after the Stella one.

Stax is dragging and dragging....yes I know affairs go on for years but I can't see how you can pull that off in a soap and keep people interested...plus it's gonna be impossible as Stacey is not stable at all.

Bradders is a breath of fresh air when he's on screen he's one of the few things I enjoyed about this episode....more Bradley please! Felt sorry for Billy and wish he would swallow his pride and get help. Honey is a bit annoying but harmless. Janet has got to be one of the cutest babies on the planet.

Would like to see more of Ian and Jane...hope they start that story soon (preferably after quickly dropping the Stella one).

Peggy and the yoga...that was funny...it saved the episode imo.

What I found interesting in EE last night was how easily they manage to ruin a better than average episode or storyline.

It's ticking along nicely and we have the storyline where Billy has suddenly realised that he has money problems with the video shop. But, subtlety not being the EE creators' strong point, they hammer home the point to us by having Honey suddenly getting it into her, let's face it, pretty empty head that they can afford to throw money around left, right and centre. What an orginal storyline.........And, of course, Billy doesn't say anything to her because he doesn't "wanna worry 'er". Of course not - he'd much rather be faced with the prospect of losing everything than telling his stupid wife to stop spending money. We'd all do the same wouldn't we?

Then we have Stacey going back her old nicking ways by nicking the keys to Pauline's house so she can have a quick bonk with the ugliest stud ever, Max. Pretty inexplicable in itself. Equally inexplicable is why Ian didn't go straight round to Pauline's house to check that no-one had broken in instead of moaning to Jane that someone had nicked the keys..........instead he manages to perform a miracle by getting a locksmith to appear on the scene immediately.

And who can forget Peggy's birthday? She very kindly invited everyone to her birthday party, which will be held.............in her pub. Where, no doubt all the grateful party-goers will be paying for their own drinks and hers too as it's her birthday, bless her.

Pure magic from EastEnders.........

As I must confess, I keep saying, the Video shop belongs to Ben, Phil gave it to him as an investment for the future. SO why is Phil not aware what is happening to it and why is Billy getting in such a state about it. If someone was amanging the Vic for him Phil would check the books weekly. This debt story is rubbish.

Oh yeah I forgot Ben owned it. It's a bit stupid then that Phil doesn't realise what's going on.

I actually thought it was much better than the guff we had with Kevin last week. I love Stella! Or at least the brilliant way the actress is playing her. Feel sorry for little Ben though. Sick to death of Stax already, just hope it ends soon please. It will, won;t it?

I thought Phil bought the flat above the Video shop, not the shop itself.

very sick, lol

lol, ha ha

Enoughisenough, Phil bought the video shop and the flat and let Billy and Honey stay in the flat and run the shop. He told Ben he was putting the shop in his name, they had a party with Ben`s friends for the handing over ceremony but Stella didn`t finish the paperwork in time and the party was a embarassment for Ben.
The ownership of the video shop was a big enough story for it to matter that its been forgotten now.

I guess this is what I was talking Naz with people willing her on. How can you actually want someone to hurt a child.

The dog that Billy gave to Janine

Actually it hasn't been. If you pay attention to the episodes you will know that Phil put Billy in sole charge of the business not the building which Phil owns. Billy owns the business.

I'm a bit late with this.

So, just the score, 6.5 out of 10.

(Dawn was actually quite good in this )
