I agree with this. I loved the stuff with Denise and agree with the decision to recast Chelsea. Denise and the new Chelsea have good chemistry. Agree also that the story is ridiculous.

Jumped the shark is what I think. They've done this with Kush too. A character with potential who they just paired with any random woman they seemed to pick out of a hat rather than someone he'd probably be suited to like Ruby. None of the relationships seem to make much sense, like how Ruby would never have looked twice at Max or Martin. The Ian/Sharon thing is just the lowest of lows though. I'm not sure if I can remember a time when EE was structurally in such a damaging place in terms of its direction. At least in 2018 with crap characters like Aidan it was just rubbish new characters. Now they're destroying their originals.

I've just found out a way to stream GZSZ on my TV and I'm so happy!! I was using my chromecast before but I couldn't download the TV Now app. I've figured out a way to do it and I'm catching up on episodes I've missed since September! So happy!

I think the acting is worst in Hollyoaks by far. That's one of the worst shows for acting I've ever seen. I also think Coronation St is pretty bad for acting these days. For me Neighbours and EastEnders are generally on par, I can't comment on Emmerdale. Which country are you from? I know your username is FrenchFan, so are you from France?

I disagree, I think the acting on Neighbours is generally quite good. He is noticeably weaker than the other cast.

Haha, he was widely hated among the fanbase though, for being a terrible actor.

About time.

Why have they axed Kush? There are so many characters who should go before him. They always axe the good characters. They always wasted his character. How long before Ruby, Dotty and Bobby get axed?

If the pandemic has caused Max to go, then that's a good thing. He's been stale for years. I'm not happy about Kush though.

Did they have breaks from transmission and did their ratings improve once viewers realised they were back?

This is EastEnders, what a surprise, not.

Yes, Heiko was particularly bad, judging by the first episode. Although I did enjoy him wandering around shirtless Thanks for the info. Who would you consider to be the most popular characters on the show? Jonas is annoying. I didn't know Laura was Yvonne's daughter, she looks too young to be, but I googled and it says Yvonne had her when she was 13. Lots of the characters look too young to be the parents of their children. Maren doesn't look old enough to be Tanja and Lilly's mother, and Nina being Toni's mother is nothing short of ridiculous, I was so shocked when I heard them say that.

That's interesting. I think Emily is easily the best character on the show now and possibly even the central character. I watched the first episode yesterday and the acting was much weaker, but acting was weaker across the board back then. I suppose Leon's one of the only younger characters to have survived from the 90s and even he had a 2 year break. Why was Emily unpopular to begin with?

I've signed up to RTL Now so I can watch old episodes. It's funny that not many of the old cast in the 90s stayed for long, but a lot of the current cast have stuck around for a long time. I just saw an episode from 2007 with Philip, John and Emily all in it.

That bloke on The Locher Room really needs to improve his audio, it's appalling.

Moritz is such a mess isn't he Feel sorry for Henri.

Sounds interesting. I'm enjoying the story between Leyla and John.

Tuner doesn't do much these days. Moritz doesn't appear as much as I'd like 😂I love the relationship between Moritz and Yvonne.

Thanks Huntress. I'm really enjoying the performance of the actress who plays Shirin in GZSZ. Very powerful.

Thanks @Huntress, I think Rosa's the only one I'm familiar with.

@gyroscope I'm not complaining They could have put him in some tighter underwear though @Huntress have there been many LGBT characters before?

Moritz flirting with Nihat 💕Loved their little exchange. (Moritz is changing a lightbulb and Nihat mistakes him for a handyman) MORITZ: Do you get paid much? NIHAT: Is that a trick question? Do you? MORITZ: I don't do it for the money. I just like screwing.

'Stichwort: Urban edginess'. Sunny and Emily are hilarious in this handbag storyline

Thanks, I'll deffo be watching then!

I wasn't that impressed by the actress who plays Maren in the aftermath. I thought Lilly was brilliant though. Shirin thought she'd just go and get the tube afterwards 😂 I really liked how it was written. They had all these plans to go travelling, it was so sad 😭
