Bright Eyes

You pretty much said it all, Vee. Your post says most of what I would have, as we have very similar views on this show, except you remember all the names and intricate details I constantly need a refresher on. I was watching this episode on TV, but it was moments like the Lysa revelation where I wished I could have paused it to reflect and pick my jaw up off the floor, but I beared through the great shock and tried my best to stay focused for the rest. Poor Sansa will never get peace. At least, Jon, Arya and Bran have had chances to breathe.

I love how at the end he basically bowed to her greatness! RESPECT!

Browsing the official Hollyoaks twitter page and one of their tweets posted on February 2, 2014 mentions that as Ellis Hollins' tenth anniversary with the show, meaning Wikipedia listing him as having premiered with the character is wrong. Hollins only started in 2004, right before Gordon and Helen were killed off.

I'm so thankful Alfie and Kat are happy (and not depressing) and out of the pub that I let things like that slide because I know it could be worse, much worse. I would say they were Kirkwood's number one mistake.

But then wouldn't they say someone would be returning? In case you were wondering, this information came from @showbizsecrets (twitter handle). If I knew how to embed tweets, I would.

Apparently, tomorrow we'll find out that a TV LEGEND will be joining Emmerdale. Can't wait to see who it is. It would be fantastic if the long awaited Grandma Barton was finally cast. I know a lot of people have wanted her to be Joan Collins for years.

Wow, Ed Sheeran is going to guest on Shorty! That's pretty cool that this show could get someone so big.

I can't help but want to fast forward to when people find out Andy and Bernice had sex, or an affair, as the case may turn into. Nicola and Victoria's reactions will be strong highlights, but I think Diane's, due to her relationships with both, could be the underdog gem!

Always happy to see more of our elk around these parts. Welcome!

Cain and Charity were such a highlight today. Kate Oates has also done a fantastic job and fixing the hatchet job Blackburn did to his character. It will be interesting to see if either wedding goes through.

Diane Parish was brilliant today.

I love how David has basically become Maria's devil may care conscious. I hope they keep their relationship going. It's fascinating.

The Bernice/Andy scenes today were perfection. He is all man and then some.

Actress fired! http://www.soapsquawk.co.uk/news/corrie-shock-georgia-may-foote-axed-from-the-soap.php#results And in turns out that Kym Marsh is a real piece of work and is now Waring with Cindy Cunningham!

You tempt me with your devilish ways, but I will not bite.

Prince, Danny (Lucy's ex/the guy Johnny kissed) has already exited. I've always been a big Gary Lucy, so I was sad that he wasn't sticking around. He seemed like he could be a fun bi-sexual cad type of character. Whitney not being okay with Johnny being gay was never the story. It was a beat played which led to Terry and Bianca's break up. That said, I really hope Terry sticks around when Bianca goes, who, unlike people here, I will definitely miss. Kirkwood was terrible with her, but ever since she came back with Terry she's been watchable again and she'll always be one of my favourites. I just hope she at least takes Tiffany with her. IMost of the time I despise children, but Morgan can stay just because of that scene where he told Carol she could always come to him when she needed a hug.

Thank you for hating him as well. Him and Blessing should get together. There are some other actors on that show that aren't major thespians, but they at least have charisma, screen presence or a certain likability. These two are just horrible every time they are on screen. My predication for Fraser's murderer is Diane. She's been a violent, selfish sociopath since the beginning.

Ben, after watching Emmerdale again since April 1, I'm totally on board with your idea of Robbie/Finn. I agree with all of you that Danny Miller never sold the romantic aspects of his relationships. I can't be sure that Lawson would be different, but him and Finn to have a good rapport. Plus, I never understood how the show couldn't see the off the charts chemistry between Aaron and Victoria. Heck, they probably did and that's why their great friendship suffered once Aaron got into the thick of his relationship with Jackson.

Maria is a must see character right now. Her throwing her phone right in Todd's smug face made my day. It was so unexpected, yet brilliant. I'm placing my bets that she'll end up being

I think the main problem is anyone trying to find a love story on this show. That's not what this show is or should ever be about for any character. This show is about power, how to retain it, the weakness/vices of those who lost it and whether or not one is strong enough to get it back once they've done so. If I wanted some lame romance I'd watch crap like Scandal or something equally embarrassing.

I thought this was kind of neat, except for the Bran hate. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6KLzjXAV3s#aid=P-82d2LQSrM

I don't know how known he was for being on the show but, Tony Musante (Joe D'Angelo), passed away on Tuesday. Short Obituary - http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/latimes/obituary.aspx?n=Tony-Musante&pid=168213616

The 'scene' won't happen until the the new year.

Maybe not mature of me but, there is too much beardage and that gross stache look on Murray Bartlett? ... I physically could not watch even if I wanted to. I do hope, as a fan of Groff, that it's a success though.

He was my favourite on that show, then Ryan O'Reilly, in hotness and character wise. But we must never forget Shirley Bellinger - she was perfection. Back to your regularly scheduled TWD talk.
