Check out Jack McMullen at :51 in this trailer for Christmas 2011 on ITV.

I remember when watching the storyline that Des seemed a hapless victim of the extremely vindictive Tanya. Eva Pope played that aspect of her so well. It was very clear that Tanya was completely miserable and seeing other people happy not only irritated her it also led her to try to set out on destroying that happiness. She was the first UK character in a soap who reminded me of Rachel Davis as played by Robin Strasser on AW.

He looks like he could easily be a relative of his-maybe a cousin?

I actually think it would be fun if a TV reality show blew in there to film something called The Emmerdale Curse. They'd cover the two aerial disasters and also stumble upon other calamities like Tricia's demise.
I always thought that at least a few of the family members of the passengers from that Kurskov jet would visit to see where their loved ones perished.

Carl, I'm curious what you thought of Val's ghost appearing to Eric. I thought it was perfectly fine. I'm glad the last time I'd ever see Val was in a scene with Eric, just like I was glad that the last time I ever saw Jack on CS was with Vera.

Damon Rochefort tweeted this very cute pic of him, Jonathan Harvey and some of the cast:

It is an odd interview, Carl. She seems a strange one. Do you think it was to do with her not being a morning person or something else? Maybe it is to do with the tabloid story.

Oh, dear. What a horrible scene, Carl. I wouldn't mind if Max went all Bobby Beale on Sarah-Lou's ass and thumped her to death with something. Her presence on the show is now completely irrelevant. And when the f**k is the ghastly Callum going to finally get written off?

Tonight's episode was a s**tfest of mammoth proportions. Speaking of mammoth proportions Claudette's boobies are enormous and they were framed into a shot directly next to Patrick's head and I couldn't help but wince.
Kim has sadly reverted back to a caricature. Phil is reverting back to King Mitchell, bully of Walford. Dean and Roxy are being portrayed as a couple of cute kids trying to get a bit of time to themselves. Awful.

And it just seems like a very Hollyoaks-type stunt to do. I wonder who the "Maddie" in this week's episode will be-the one you thought was going to outlive the disaster but abruptly got flattened later on?

Lola's exit seemed hugely rushed but then again DTC wanted to see her dispatched up to Newcastle with great haste.
I must admit that Lin Blakely was terrific in tonight's episode but it only served to prove that she's saddled with a horrible character 99% of the time. Roger Sloman is atrocious even at his most bearable. He makes Danny Dyer look like Sir Paul Scofield.

He has, Bright Eyes. I don't know if it's because he hadn't been used much in the past year that he seemed to me to be pushing too hard in this week's episodes. I think he was a really good child actor but I don't think he's very compelling as a young adult actor. He's got a great face for period drama. Maybe it's just that I don't think he now looks right for this show at this point.

I agree, Carl, but that seems to be the case here.

I apologize to Carl and the other Jamie Borthwick admirers here but in this week's episodes I thought he was not good at all and I won't be too cut up if he's gone for good. I doubt he is, though. I can see this week as being a token opportunity by DTC for him to step up but it didn't work. I can see him leaving for good in the fall, though.
I doubt that last night's episode marked the beginning of Max' swan song. I think the show is doing a double bluff and Ben will continue to be the prime suspect, paving the way for Kathy and Gavin to figure heavily in his vindication and release.

I haven't yet, Carl, but I'm looking forward to it.
I'm hoping this is only a momentary lapse:

I've got the Steph Spokes channel, thanks, Carl. I'm looking forward to watching episodes from that era since it might be my favorite, largely because of Sarah Lancashire. I think ITV probably did what they could to keep Eva Pope but she was pretty determined to break out of the show and into other film and TV projects. The film industry in the UK, at that time, was very much in the doldrums, unfortunately. There weren't even many US productions shooting there at the time.
I liked Denise Black a lot, too. I loved her on Queer as Folk. I'm hoping that maybe she'll be back this fall or winter, perhaps with Ken's son Daniel in tow.

I always noticed the physical similarities between the two actresses, Carl. I thought Eva Pope had the edge in that she was sexy.

It's just DTC going all Bad Seed campy at the expense of the storyline.
Anybody else watching that new series Humans? It's about these robots called synths who get taken into people's homes for various reasons. Cindy, with her staring eyes, shiny hair and robotic delivery, seemed as synth-like as it could get tonight.
Besides Jay and Lola, Abi and Ben and Jamie and Belinda who else have enjoyed trysts in the Arches?
Steve McFadden really did do a superb job tonight. However, Phil never killed anyone? Try telling that to the family of the poor homeless guy who got incinerated in the car lot that Phil torched. OK, it wasn't intentional but still. He's just as much a murderer as his son is. What a hypocrite.

Richard Hawley and Faye Brookes are joining as members of the Connor clan. I remember thinking Hawley was very sexy on Family Affairs:

I've altered my theory about Kathy's return/Ben's arrest: I think it would be more interesting (and plausible) if Gavin had Ben trailed on Good Friday (hoping to find Kathy lurking nearby) and has his alibi via photographic evidence including a date/time stamp. He would then use this as leverage to get Kathy to come back to him.

Kathy's return must have something to do with Ben's arrest, right? Maybe she trailed him on Good Friday and has to come out of hiding to provide him with an alibi, along with photographic evidence?

He was sort of charming on AMC-his character Sam's amused reactions to Opal Gardner were fun to watch. He was hopelessly miscast as Tom in every possible way.

I just think it's incredibly dopey that Kathy would show up in The Arches without fears of being spotted by Ian or someone who knew her since she still looks exactly the same. It reminds me of when Sharon and Marcus Christie had those clandestine meetings at The Albert, just a short walk from where Phil worked and resided.
