Eastenders [News, Spoilers and Discussion - from Jan 2018]

I'm surprised the writers made Gray be a lawyer, usually it is lower class men like me who are painted as the abusers, racists and criminals. You see the comments online all the time when crime is discussed, "They should be sacked, providing they even have a job that is", is one I read on this site recently. I don't understand that attitude because if you look at the worst events in history it was mostly the wealthy high class people carrying out the abuse, the Nazi leaders were probably not peasants, the British/American slave owners were wealthy, the most anti-Catholic people in Ulster were the wealthy Protestants pre troubles.

I dont blame Denny for staying with Phil , he had no relationship with Sharon at all and she took off to Australia for months and left him .Then came back and had an affair in the house while completely ignoring Denny . He has a better relationship with Phil and Phil gives him more time
His options were to stay in his home with his dad and all is belongings or leave with a heavily pregnant Sharon , no home , no money , no job , no prospect .
I would have stayed with Phil too , his mother has let him down so many times

Denny has always been a selfish little git who is only interested in whatever is best for him. If Phil were the one sleeping on someone's sofa he'd be with his mother. Plus he has a nasty vicious side. She spoiled him and now he's turned his back on her. A very unlikable kid who has no friends.

Yes I agree , but his mother is partly to blame for always putting her needs first before Dennys .


Another thing that puzzles me is this. Sharon had an affair with Keanu . They broke up and he got with Louise
Yet Louise had her baby first despite Sharon as far as I remember was pregnant first ? And Peggy is not a prem baby ?

True. She did go into labour early and there was a bit of a token effort with her having to be put in an incubator for a while. Sharon has always been selfish. Not a lot of EE's story lines make sense. Sharon cheated on Grant with Phil. Then on Phil with Jack. Then married Phil again and cheated with Keanu. Surely after being cheated on once that would be enough, no fool like an old fool. There's no chemistry between Jack and Denise either.

And Baby Abi and Baby Cherry both seem to have disappeared of the face of the earth !

Phil has cheated on her plenty of times aswell, thinking he’s done it with Rainy, Shirley and Denise.

They only ever get with Phil when they're drunk or high. Like Phil, Ian Beale and Max Branning are irresistible to women.

Only 15 years till Phil and Denise love child turns up on the square lol

Loving Shirley and Sharon bickering lol

Lets hope he's not like Leo. The Leo/Whitney story has gotten very silly. I know that she went to the hotel willingly with him but that was because she didn't know who he was. But surely now that she's reported him for stalking her the Police could issue a restraining order against him?

I wouldn’t even be surprised with her if she actually starts going out with him again.

I think Phil still prefers Denny to his own gay son Ben

I think he is meant to have cheated on Louise at least once with Sharon, that's how Sharon's baby is later. I'm not sure Sharon was aware of her pregnancy before Louise.

When Ruby stayed there recently, she had a room. Presume that room is still there.

Ah, right. I didn't realise that.
Maybe they could put a folding bed for Sharon in Shirley's room...

During the vow renewal I was shouting at the screen for Chantelle to let everyone know Gray’s true character.

I'm really hoping that her stopping on the stairs is her finally saying she's had enough. I really don't want what I think is going to happen to actually happen. He has gone full psycho in his attempt to control her life.

For someone who never leaves the square and has a constant scowl on her , whitney has one hell of a knack of attracting blokes. Has she been ever been single longer than a week?

iamwhoiam

Linda knows something about Keanu . Its getting tense
Billy and Karen are just so unbelievable as a couple !

Gray surprised her (not happily by the looks of it) with a second honeymoon to the Canaries, leaving Mitch and Karen to mind the house and the kids. Karen decided to throw the party.

Why? I think they are more believable as a couple than him and Honey.
