Eastenders [News, Spoilers and Discussion - from Feb 2015]

The Talking Bread

I'd say Steve McFadden would be some coup for an interviewer. He hates publicity. Can't say I've ever seen a proper interview with him. I reckon he has some stories. (Heads to youtube to search McFadden interview...)

How was a digger with the keys in it around the Square

Also has Ben forgot his has already a kid, in Lexi, shame the show got rid of Lola and Lexi, this surely would make Ben want to be a better dad

I like Shirley remembering Heather and why was Whitney so mean to her about it :mad:

Maybe Chris Doran can do a Shayne Ward change careers and audition for Kat's son

I hope the person who plays kat's son is an Irish actor.

That young fella who plays Ollie is a desperate actor. He's not even trying to act like a sick child. ��

Did Whitney call Elaine? Seriously when will the Carters kick her out, why was she talking to the nurse or health care assistant or social worker, which ever she was about Ollie, she is nothing to him :mad:

Where is Lisa aka Louise's mother?

Phil Mitchell is one of the best soap actors out there.

To echo what others have said, Steve McFadden is absolutely fantastic playing Phil.
I don't know he is able to play a drunk so convincingly; his red eyes, his facial expressions, everything about him is just spot on.
He deserves awards for his performance.

He puts other actors to shame; you see other actors playing drunks and one minute they're slurring and the next they're stone cold sober.

I thought the bit with Tina getting drunk and sewing Sonia's costume was a filler?
What was the point of that?
It seemed out of character for her to get drunk like that when she'd said she'd follow Sonia over to Rebecca's gig.

As much as I love the Carters, I'm getting tired of Mick's attitude towards Nancy.
I hope his dislike of her doesn't drag on the way other storylines drag on for months.

...and she ends up in hospital yet her mother doesn't appear(?). Doesn't seem like something Lisa would do.

Don't take soap land too seriously lol

What do you want them to do? The actor who plays Lisa probably wasn't available or willing to appear.

You have to remember it's a soap and not real life.

Exactly what I thought. I failed to believe what was happening. She's normally more family orientated, thoughtful etc. If she and Sonia are heading for the rocks, then not enough time is being given to the story-line for it to feel real and less filler like.

Can I just say I think they need to on screen kiss more too? This kiss on the forehead thing all the time.. I'm just not feeling the relationship.

As much as I love the Carters, I'm getting tired of Mick's attitude towards Nancy.
I hope .

I get the initial feeling of needing to finger point, but for godsake... this doesn't seem like Mick. I miss the upbeat chirrupy Mick!

I heard about it. Hate the idea of actor changes, I haven't been right since they changed Pippa in Home and away in the '90's
