How is Dean in prison already for Roxy's attempted rape as she is gone, is he charged for Linda also?

MistyCheese

In Linda's case the rape charges against Dean were dropped. There wasn't enough evidence to take it to trial. So maybe that means that with new evidence (Roxy's accusation) the case can proceed?

I wonder if Stacey thinks that the baby daddy is God/Jesus, in her current state?

SAMTALK

Sorry for going back over Christmas episodes but did anyone find Lees reaction to Nancy a bit weird. (or creepy even).
I thought she looked absoutely stunning but disappointed with Tamwars reaction to be honest

Yes. She's going to end up on the roof of the Queen Vic with Arthur. (think it might be something to do with fearing Arthur is at risk).

Tamwar tells Martin, who goes to try to talk her down. Up there, he discovers that he's not Arthur's dad, when she tells him that God is.

To gain her trust, he plays along with her delusion, and she hands Arthur over to him. On coming down she stumbles and falls, but is fine.

It certainly would explain the religious undertones with Stacey recently, and considering the baby was born on Christmas Eve/Day yeah I think it's more likely.

Yup, he had a weird almost incestual reaction to her.

Aw fab, hadn't realised that. They probably could have made that clearer in the trailer.

Gotta say, I'm enjoying the Slater stuff.

Didn't realise until tonight just how much I hadn't missed Kat. She is an annoying noise that just won't stop.

Lacey Turner is playing Stacey brilliantly and reminding everyone how good an actress she really is.

Is Sean having an Irish name a hint for Kats son?

Not sure. Hard to say since they probably had Sean as a character years before they decided to develop this story of Kat's son

Lacey and Jessie are great actresses, they need good storylines not constant affairs

But they might have chosen Ireland based on the provenance of the character name?
I wondered the same thing as soon as they said Ireland!

Lisha

I feel sorry for Kat but she inadvertently have Stacy fuel to feed her psychosis:(

How many more characters are going to have family they don't know about?

It's beyond boring now. Nearly every character has a secret parent,sibling or child.

I was actually thinking the same thing tonight when Corrie was on - it's an overused storyline!

It really is considering its not realistic, I've honestly never heard of it happening to someone I know in real life I dont think yet most of the Square have secret family!

Kat - Secret twin son

Stacey - son with secret father, and now a Secret family!

Kush - secret son

Martin - Thinks he has son but isnt the father

Dean - Secret father Buster, secret brother Mick, secret daughter in Jade

Mick - Secret mother Shirley, secret brother Dean, Secret father Buster, secret niece Jade!

Sharon - secret father


It goes on and on .....:pac::pac:

Whats ridiculous is that most of those have been in the past 2 years or less, and theres more on top. They've pushed it too far for me now with the Kat and Stacey storylines at the same time.

Ann22

I don't think Kat's son is a character we've met at all. Dunno why everyone suspects Sean.
Nah. ..it'll be a new actor - a slouching, brooding and rebellious young man with a whole tub of Brylcreem in his fashionable sticky up hair and sporting a barely concealed self destructive streak.

Stacey said Brian named all his kids with names starting with S after sugar so I wonder what Kyle's name was Susan, Sherry or Shelia

Riddle101

I think it's time for Eastenders to start doing some lighthearted storylines now. Everything is so dark and miserable now, there's no happiness or joy. It wouldn't kill them to do deviate away from the misery and start something happy for once. I mean even when Kat and Alfie won the lotto last year they still had all that stuff with Kat's son and Alfie with his tumor, it's a joke how nobody seem to have any happy storylines.

I would have done away with Kat and Alfie's storylines and just had them win the lotto and see what they do with their money.

I'll be lambasted for this, but Stacey is annoying the hell out of me.
It seems that the minute that baby was born, she'd gone mad.
The way she had the baby in that sling thing..I kept thinking "Turn the child around, he'll get a crick in his neck!".

I hope Kat's son is a new character; I never liked Sean.

I don't suspect Sean at all after this week. Don't think anyone else does either do they really. It points to a new character in Ireland who Kat and Alfie will search for during the new series.

I think the idea of the plot is that she is going "mad" or in a more accurate sense delusional due to her not taking her meds. The trauma and drama of the baby's birth, the new shock of her fathers secret family and the stress of the baby father secret being the main factors that offset the episode.

I think you should feel sympathetic to the character, not annoyed!

Cookie_Dough

I'm finding it seriously difficult to suspend my disbelief with these episodes. Great acting by Stacey & Kat though.

Really can't understand why nobody is thinking Stacey is acting unusual with the way she's going on (God obsession etc). Fair enough they're chalking it down to her having a lot going on but she's practically changed overnight and is constantly edgy as well as delusional.

So far she's had interactions with Martin (every day), Jean (?), Charlie & Mo. Dot and the rev mr Stevens (didn't think her behaviour in church was odd) and to a lesser extent Kush and Shabnam. Many of these people know her history of bipolar and haven't thought to question it or ask if she's ok?

Also where has Mo been all this time? Did they know about uncle Harry when Kat was pregnant? I thought it only came with the whole zoe "I ain't your sister, I'm your mother " storyline?

Yeah, that's the whole idea. She's developed post-partum psychosis, which is the sudden onset of psychotic symptoms after childbirth.

Happens in a very small minority of women, but the rates are a bit higher in women who have bipolar.

Must be absolutely terrifying to experience, and I feel so sorry for her.
