Ok can someone explain why they left Jay behind?

The chemistry between ben and jay is the best thing in eastenders.don't get how ben could have left him there..

Riddle101

I was let down by the whole thing with Ben and Grant leaving Jay behind. It would have taken them a second to open the van and let Jay out. They still had time before the police arrived.

Yeah good point, I didn't notice the glasses not being smashed Yeah I always thought he had some kind of deafness as he used to wear a hearing aid in each ear AFAIK but he doesn't seem to have any problems with even slight hearing now. They must be magic hearing aids capable of restoring all hearing perfectly :pac:

Apparently he was deaf in one ear only from birth.

Does he use that walking stick in real life. Or is it a prop for eastenders.

I can't remember who Colin is. I'm guessing it's a gay wedding though.

Colin,as in colin and barry? Wouldn't have recognised him..

I'm not a Sonia fan but how does she stick Tina and Sylvie, I'd run far away from them, two ungrateful c*nts especially Tina

Riddle101

Jay should start rapping and do a cover of Dr Dre's Forgot About Dre, but call it Forgot About Jay. His rapper name could be Ginger Slim.

Agree. Didn't show the funeral or the wedding. Looks like they are fast forwarding through things.

Who was Colin and Barry? Im lost with this storyline, and what was the point of it anyway?
Anyone else think les looks a bit like the walking dead himself?

Ok how can Ben give Phil his liver? Wouldn't he have to be dead first, seeing as we only have one liver?

Live doner transplant is possible, I think they take half and he will manage without it. I'm sure we will find out!!

His character is living with MS.

Living Donors
Although each person has only one liver and would die without it, it is possible to donate a portion of the liver for transplantation into another individual. The segmental anatomy (see figure below) allows surgeons to create grafts of varying size, depending upon the recipient's requirement for liver tissue. The partial livers in both the donor and the recipient will grow to provide normal liver function for both individuals.

Historically, this procedure was developed to enable transplantation of children as it was difficult to find suitable livers from deceased donors for this group. To transplant a child, typically a graft comprised of segments 2 and 3, together known as the left lateral segment representing 20-25% of the whole liver volume, is used.

Transplantation of an older child or perhaps a petite adult, however, may require segments 2, 3, and 4, together known as the left lobe and representing approximately 40% of the whole liver volume. During the past decade, however, this technique has been further extended to enable transplantation of adults using the right lobe, segments 5, 6, 7, and 8, which account for approximately 60% of the total liver volume. An adult-to-adult living donor liver transplant is highly complex and technically challenging procedure that carries a significant risk for both the donor and the recipient.

Colin was a graphic designer who moved into the square and fell in love with Barry, a market trader who was younger than him. Colin was insistent that Barry wait until it was legal for them to be together, age wise. They shared the first gay kiss on British television.
