Whitney seemed to take a good bang and fall when she was hit by the car. Amazing recovery that she was out and about so soon after and not a scratch on her and the baby is fine. I have a feeling Whitney and Britney are just going to be a boring story and Zac is ( quite rightly ) going to run. I would have preferred to see Whitney and Zac have their lovely baby and live a happy life for even a short while

Baybay

So far, for me this isn’t the exit story Whitney deserves. What’s the point of having Bianca back or of going to wherever she’s living? There’re plenty of Britney’s in Walford, I’m sure. The story makes Whitney dismissive of Zach, careless with her own personal safety, cavalier with the safety of the baby plus what’s going on with her wardrobe?

Maybe it’ll make sense by the time it gets to the end but right now, for the first time in a long time I want to watch the episodes on fast forward.

I’m assuming something else goes very tragically wrong. Do we need to know who was driving the car? Are the police involved? Do Bianca & Sonia agree Sonia should take the baby when Whitney dies from a delayed head injury or is murdered by Keely?

I guess the writers are trying to show the importance of foster carers but possibly they should have used another character rather than Whitney- the problem I have with it is that Whitney now seems to care more about 'a random problem child' than her own baby which is a complete contradiction. The writers were doing a good job showing how fearful she was with this pregnancy after loss which was true to life but now all that is lost.

Last night was a joke seeing a pregnant Whitney up and about after a what seemed like a serious accident not giving a damn about her own baby. I found myself shouting at the TV 'what are you doing going over to druggie mothers house AGAIN on your own'. It seemed to take way too long for Bianca and Zac to follow her aswell when they should have been holding her back or insisting she go back to Walford. She didnt appear to take stock and be thankful that her baby was unharmed at all.

Zac has been so supportive of Whitney and his reaction to Whitneys recent behaviour is understandable. I personally wanted to see something good happen for Whitney for once with this baby - but its just going to be more heartache for her I think.

You have to hand it to soapland, while their police forces are inept, their healthcare is phenomenal.

Immortal Starlight

Last night’s episode has to be the most stupid episode I’ve ever seen. Absolutely ridiculous.

Agreed. Specially after that belter of an episode that saw that ratbag Nish getting thrown out of his house. I felt like cheering when that happened...

I need to know where Nish is now

JP Liz V1

Is that Whitney's exit staying with Bianca, talking in Britney, not returning with Zack or attending any hospital appointments?

I'd say if Zack had kissed Penny, she wouldn't have resisted

It's a shame Sharon and Martin are away when Zack needs them, at least he has Ravi who has beefed up more

DT2016

Is Bianca gone now?

JP Liz V1

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121863851#Comment_121863851

If that was her return, what a waste and how much was Patsy paid as I thought she lived now permanently in America

What a let down for sure

dixiedan

Can anyone remind me of how Bianca ended up living alone in a dump in Milton Keynes ?

I forget why she left And what family members left with her. It must be years ago she left.

JP Liz V1

Bianca was dating Terry and AFAIR he got a job down there and they left with his son and his grand child from Cindy Jnr also Bianca's son Morgan

Riddle101

^^^ All of Bianca's kid should be adults by now so they've all probably flown the coop and living their own lives. I mean we know Liam and Tiffany are in Germany with their dad, and I suppose Morgan could be off somewhere working or something as well. Terry's kids either left with him or they also just left on their own, so it would just be Bianca really. Pretty sad tbh, Bianca never gets a happy ending.

BaywatchHQ

Whitney recovered from being hit by the car very quickly. It made it look like she was going to die then she was up walking around the estate again the next day.

Spoiler Warning

Martin returns and discovers Stacey and Jack's affair, Chelsea starts getting suspicious too as Denise returns home

Immortal Starlight

Well done George😊

JP Liz V1

How did Stacey, a non relative get in to see Denise, I assume only certain people are listed as visitors

prunudo

I still suspect that Gloria is George's real mum. She had an affair with the his real dad, thats why he got killed. The woman in the court is probably his aunt.

Hatshepsut

Now that would be an interesting twist to the story alright.

Galwayguy35

Elaine is very clingy.

prunudo

Sure what would I know 😂

JP Liz V1

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121886899#Comment_121886899

That woman looked the same age as George, how could he think her his mother

JP Liz V1

Jack should start interrogating each of The Six separately, he knows Denise attacked Nish so why blame Keanu or will he quit The Bill for Denise

animalinside

I am really bored by George's mother storyline.

maurv2

I hope Jack keeps up his questioning of the events on Christmas night. He knows things don't add up.

I'm sick of Stacey too .. her "faux" concern for Denise while really trying to make sure she doesn't spill the beans as far as I can see

I hope the whole Six of them are found out and the sooner the better, but I fear the whole thing is going to drag on.

Galwayguy35

Martin is my new favourite character.

JP Liz V1

Go Chelsea

Stacey trying to blame Denise and Ravi, who didn't even have a ride

I await Jean and Lauren's comments on dirty bike Stacey

Ricky and Amy should choose Denise to live with, kick out Jack

Baybay

Bit harsh, @JP Liz V1!

Stacey didn’t cheat on a partner. Yes, every one else in her life is impacted, including jealous Martin but she had no relationship to wreck. Unlike Jack who’s so weak he can’t take responsibility for himself & his family.

I’m assuming that, along with many other ways, that this will all come back to bite Stacey in the bum when Theo is released which must be coming up soon & Jack will not be helpful. Not to mention The Six.

JP Liz V1

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121914793#Comment_121914793

Stacey knew what Denise was going through, she should have been helping not jumping into bed with her husband, Amy is suffering with her mental health too this isn't good

Stacey wrecked her relationship with Lily as Jack is Charli's grandfather

Baybay

I completely agree @JP Liz V1 but the same is true of Jack. He may not have known the full extent of what Denise was going through but he knew something was wrong & had zero interest in his wife, his daughter & grandaughter.

Jack was at least as wrong as Stacey & has had at least as many dalliances or failed relationships. As many Brannings that caught her eye, a similar amount of Mitchell’s surely caught his.

DT2016

Denise kinda started all this first with flirting with Ravi

Baybay

Or maybe Ravi started it so

JP Liz V1

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121918520#Comment_121918520

Jack and Stacey went much further, Jack even used Amy's mental health to push Denise to stay

Denise and the kids deserve better than Jack

JP Liz V1

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121915919#Comment_121915919

I agree Jack is just as bad

Foggy Jew

Dean is a great baddie. There are no depths he won’t stoop to. Imagine. Endangering poor Jade’s life just to suit himself.

Baybay

Dean has no redeeming features. None. I don’t even think of him as a baddie, that just seems too kind! I want his storyline to come to an end & for him to leave EE. I guess that means the actor is doing his job well.

So what's good for the goose is good for the gander?

prunudo

I think Martin was wrong to blab like that. Yes Stacey and Jack should have been called out. But Martin blurting it out to Chelsea and then the subsequent revelation caused more harm in that moment than it needed to.

It did make good drama though.

Foggy Jew

Another cracking episode. Jean’s wavering between wanting to believe the best of Dean, but suspecting the worst was very credible. And@Baybay you are 100% correct. Dean must be up there amongst the top ten soap nasties. I’m loving hating him.

JP Liz V1

Did Jean buy Dean's lies about Jade?

Stacey and Martin on the lash who then had Arthur and Hope, Lily?

Foggy Jew

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121923767#Comment_121923767

As if that matters in Soapland.

Baybay

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121923767#Comment_121923767

Did all the children not leave the house after the bbq & go to Chelsea’s with Denise?

JP Liz V1

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121925067#Comment_121925067

This was a new day, night, after the reveal and Jean was at The Vic for the fundraiser then hospital with Harvey, Dean and Jade, Martin was out and so was Stacey, Eve was with Suki in their house so who had Arthur and Hope, Stacey only said Jean and Lily were her priority as not talking to her

JP Liz V1

Spoiler Warning

Well next week sounds explosive with Sharon back and Keanu's body discovered, weapon returned to Linda

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/eastenders/a60295972/eastenders-spoilers-sharon-return-keanu-body-found/

Hatshepsut

I cannot wait, popcorn at the ready next week so.

I'm also looking forward to seeing Sharon when she's back cos every time she takes a break she comes back more tanned, more fillers and skinnier than ever!

prunudo

Ridiculous she's been away for 3 months with such a big story going on which centres on her.

JP Liz V1

Shirley needs to come back

JP Liz V1

LOL at Martin thinking Priya wanted a threesome with Ravi and he not into group action 😄

Whitney is selfish, treating poor Zack badly

Ben sold a credit card in America and now faces a long stretch in an American prison, or will Phil help him go on the run

Galwayguy35

Hopefully Whitney and that annoying kid will soon be written out of it.
