Graham

She looks divine as ever.

No mention of Barbara retiring or the exit being her choice. She is still capable of getting her lines out and doing scenes.

Yup, that would be my order! Though ranking Queen Joan is useless. She is immortal. It's really insane how amazing she looks at her age.

I'm a little late in my comments but the contrast between great vs good vs awful work is on full display here.

My AMC nostalgia grows especially strong at Christmastime. So many classic, cozy holiday episodes. How lucky were we this have this show in our lives...

What an absolutely gorgeous home and the views are breathtaking. I can't say I'm too crazy about the green walls, though.

RIP genius.

I still can't believe the amount of stuff that went on in his dressing room. That's the biggest shock. The arrogance...

I pray Lisa Bonet tells her story.

I wonder if this means Bill Geddie is out the door?

David Platt is my secret guilty soap crush. Thought I was the only one!

LOL at them putting Timothy F'ing West all the way on the end.

Dela was stale and her schtick was annoying. I'm happy Bianca won. God love Jinkx though - still a hot ass mess after all this time.

Watched Monday's episodes and almost fell asleep. This show is in a serious slump right now.

Lorenzo was smokin! HUNK!

Why are Sharon and Phil all the way off the side?

Wow. The choice of who to give that storyline (and meaty material) to is shocking. You'd never see that on an American soap. Kudos.

All that stress and the man still looks 20 years younger than his age.

He was rather cute. He did have chemistry with Linda Henry so I hope he's improved and can stay.

EE is officially out of ideas then.

Danny Dyer is an interesting choice. He was pretty cute in the 90s. Anyone is better than Alfie.

The last scene was quite touching. Barbara has almost never been able to cry on cue so she obviously has some very fond real life memories of Pam St. Clement.

As much as I dislike Stella, the idea of Steve MacDonald back behind the bar is enough to make me gag. I hope he stays away and just lets Liz run everything.

Chris Fountain is no big loss. Tommy and Tina are so boring together. Did anyone see the scenes of Barbara Knox getting assaulted on the Red Rec and its aftermath? Weak weak weak.

At least DTC is not boring. The show needs a shot in the arm -- badly. I'm interested to see where he takes things.
