Michelle and Preston should attempt a proper relationship at some point otherwise it seems like a cop out.

I think the reveal of Michelle and Preston would have been better without adding Bex. It detracts from the story somehow. I also feel like the writing is devoid of a lot of emotion. I like the idea of the storyline and am still enjoying it but I think the writing could be a lot better for it. ETA: For goodness sake and they threw that car crash in right at the end! Totally unneeded!

I'm really enjoying EE. Can't stand Louise though.

I think it's a shame Preston is being written as a little twerp but on the other hand I think it's realistic, as a teenage boy he probably would throw his toys out of the pram when he didn't get his own way and not be able to have an adult relationship. It's like he doesn't understand Michelle's woes but Michelle doesn't help matters giving into temptation the way she does. Still fascinating though. Michelle is my favourite character now.

I think he was playing it up Petition to save Neighbours has 20,000 signatures. Please sign if you haven't already. https://www.change.org/p/channel-5-keep-neighbours-on-uk-tv?recruiter=697638380&utm_campaign=signature_receipt&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=share_petition

I don't have a problem with Steven's bisexuality not being explored while he's in a relationship with a woman, but the strange thing is that no-one has questioned Steven being with a woman after he dated Stacey and that went pair-shaped because he came onto Christian. If this was real life the characters would at least mention it.

I think Steven's main purpose is to give Ian some family and stability. That must be why he's watered down so much. He's one of my favourite characters though. I like the direction they're taking Lauren. I have a feeling Steven's bisexuality will be re-visited at some point but what I don't understand is why his gay past has practically been ignored by the characters, even if there have been references to it in Steven's behavior. Johnny and Steven would be a good contrast. I wouldn't mind a love triangle.

Yeah. I still want Ben and Steven, don't care that they're related, it's not by blood so who cares I'll settle for Ben and Johnny though. I don't feel like the show marginalizes gay characters, I think they've just been resting Ben for a bit after the whole Paul thing.

So happy Ben's had some screen time!

It was awesome seeing Yolande again tonight!

Agreed, it's pretty terrible. I'll take it over the Michael Moon era though. Nice to see Star again.

Yeah, Bex is great. I just wish the actresses who played the bullies were better, some of those scenes have been quite embarrassing, especially the one in the school toilet.

The Sylvie storyline is a good one.

Probably a good thing if she's being written out of character because online videos make original Michelle seem the WORST.

The story would be boring if she just fell for a younger man. I guess him being underage is the point, and what makes it interesting, as it's controversial which a generic younger man story wouldn't be. I can't wait to see the fallout from it. The actors have done really well with the storyline. Personally I don't understand why there is so much opposition to it, I think people take it too seriously perhaps.

Wish there was a like button. I think I'm the only one who likes this storyline

I love Michelle and Preston The Carter money problem storyline is dire, why would Jack, Ian and Vincent play poker with Mick knowing he was in such a dire financial situation?

Yes, unfortunately I agree. I don't see why all the teen guest characters have to be 'bullies'. You'd hope they'd give them a bit more depth. Hopefully we'll learn about him more down the line, the 2 girls are much worse though, I hope they don't end up appearing more frequently. I wonder why the teens are appearing so heavily at the moment. Is SOC attempting to capture a teen demographic? If so, I wonder why. I do think it's a good avenue to go down, I just think they could have done with a less predictable bullying approach and if not, I think adding another 'good' teen to the mix would make it feel a little less bland.

I'm guessing Keegan Baker has been promoted to the regular cast as the actor has put a photo on his Instagram of his dressing room which now has his name on.

I think I'm going to start watching GZSZ regularly again.

I am sad this soap ended back in 2009. I wish I'd had the chance to watch it.

Cool thanks!
