Current EastEnders Episode Discussion

[holey]

I am a fan of Kellie Bright but this drunken/ alcoholic Linda is a little bit repetitive and getting boring to watch. Ian burping was revolting and Peter is so unconvincing as a personal trainer. I have not missed Kim or Howie. A Good Duff Duff with Bianca and Reiss.

[holey]

The Kathy, Ian and Cindy scene on the living room table was amusing. Loved the mention of Angie with Sharon and Kathy. I did smile at Sharon showering Linda.

I was always a fan of Tameka, but I have not missed comedy Kim, tone it down love. The low tonight Kim, Howie and Denzel. I love Diane Parish's hair, it suits her shorter. Patsy Palmer was rather good tonight, I did like her scenes with Sonia and Reiss. On the whole the good out weighed the bad, a decent episode, better than last night.

Bianca is annoying but I'm glad they kept her on after St Whitney left, that they've remembered she has other family and people on the square she's connected to.


But she's very poisonous particularly towards Reiss who she (wrongly) thought was a weak target. He's hit her with some cutting remarks that I don't think she saw coming. She's underestimated him and I'm interested in seeing what happens next.

No surprise to me that Sonia ended up wanting Debbie's money for the 'extras'. She has history of stealing herself.

I wonder if they're going to clean Linda up now, I hope so, but I don't know how she's ever going to get over her guilt?
Nice to see Sharon supporting her.

Only Junior from the Knight's tonight and the rest from them was welcome.

'We have to eat off that table'

Surely we are going to see the back of Bianca this week. I know Reiss isn't everyone's cup of tea but he is Sonia's and Bianca overstepped the mark yet again.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Spoiler}
I think she goes tonight.     

I'm not sorry to see the back of her as she's so abrasive nowadays but I'm glad her comeback wasn't ALL about St Whitney of Walford.  She was an established character long before Whitney was thought of.

[CAEF]

Reiss is certainly a dark horse. He turned up in the show the same way Richard Hillman did in Corrie all those years ago, at a funeral of an established character, saying they are related. Neither cases have ever been disputed, and I am 99% sure Hillman was Alma's cousin as he knew so much about her in his 2nd episode when he visited Audrey a few weeks after the funeral. Also Hillman and Alma looked alike.

[holey]

Kim has got a nerve having ago at Patrick and Yolande, She and Howie are the parents. They just swanned off on that "working" cruise. The scenes with Patsy Palmer and Natalie Cassidy were excellent as were the scenes with Jessie Wallace. Some top notch acting tonight from the ladies the only niggle really was the storyline with Bianca's depression which happened off screen and does seem random. I like the friendship/closeness of Martin and Sharon. A wonderful duff duff at the end. Was that Patsy's last scene. Although she has been excellent this week I won't be sorry to see the Bianca go.

[wallis]

....and she's gone, praise the Lord!  I agree Holey where did that story about depression come from. She actually said it herself that she's a horrible person.

It's the funeral tomorrow so another loud mouth to suffer with the appearance of Karen. 

[Lotty27]

Wednesday:

Bianca certainly went with a bang. And as she was four sheets to the wind there might be another bang if she crashes that van.
I enjoyed Sonia bringing up her list of crimes and misdemeanours - she really had no right to cast aspersions at anyone else although in her defence I can't recall her thieving like Sonia has?

I wonder if she was on her meds in the MK scenes as that Bianca seemed a lot calmer and less confrontational than the mess who turned up on the square. Giving her depression did seem quite random, it's not like she's hanging around to carry on the storyline.

Poor Yolande, creepy Pastor is still hanging around like a bad smell.

I can see Kim's point regarding Yolande and Patrick. Denzel was left in their care but they abandoned him to go on their hols obviously without telling Howie or her. But it does make you wonder how often the adults were communicating with each other?

Sharon -v- Karen round 734 tonight 

[holey]

Priya make me howl in the Minute Mart. I liked the eulogy showing the Six. Very clever. Excellent filming at the end with Linda and Sharon. I was impressed with that episode, a good Bryan Kirkwood script and stand out performances from Letitia Dean and Jessie Wallace and dare I say Lorraine Stanley put in a decent performance also.  A decent end to the week.

[wallis]

Yes a good episode to end the week and dare I say it but it was good to see The Six together again. What if anything will Karen do about Dean's comments regarding Linda? 

[Lotty27]

I would say that was a very good episode.

Kat did well uniting Karen and Sharon even if it was just for the funeral.  I like it when they show Kat's kindness.
Heartbreaking when Karen said she'd lived on the square for years but Kat had been the only one to approach her 
I wonder if the Mitch actor refused to come back as it was a flimsy excuse for his absence but at least Keegan was supposed to have been there.

Linda stopped drinking for the day for Sharon and it was nice to have sober Linda back.  But why can't she do it for her little kids the rest of the time?
Wonder what Phil will think of the Keanu shrine in his garage

But Karen copped that look between Sharon and Linda and has now seen Dean (he really is the unflushable turd).
They're teasing that it's not the end of the Six storyline yet ...

I read somewhere that there's lots more to come regarding The Six.

[holey]

Decent start to the week. I liked the Fathers Day themed episode. Alan Ford as Stevie is very good. Callum smells a rat. Is Phil going to be the next one that knows about "The Six?"

[wallis]

EE's on location was good for Father's Day even if it was supposed to be Walthamstow.

The wee boy playing Albie is a fine actor for his age. He was good last week and again tonight.

So is Phil going to find out the truth about The Six and Keanu who is now off to sunny Spain.
