The Sun is reporting that BOTH Lucy and Ben will be recast. It looks like the Lucy recast will happen sooner, though.

Also, are Ronnie and Jack getting married?

I was about to post that article from the Sun. Don't you love how they try to make this into such a controversy and an outrage. :lol: REPLACED by OTHER, BETTER ACTORS!!

You mean the bridal shop stuff? I read about that. I'd rather see them married than on the same push and pull they've been on for the past few years but I wonder if Sam will return and ruin their wedding.

Maybe Sam is pregnant with Jack's spawn and will dump the baby on Ronnie and Jack, and Ronnie will have the baby she's always wanted. :lol:

Yes, the bridal shop stuff.

Here's the pics: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/s2/eastenders/scoop/a223502/pics-ronnie-shops-for-a-wedding-dress-in-enders.html

Its really stupid to recast Lucy just because of some off air behaviour. I dont get how the same country that can put some of the raunchiest stuff on TV can be so touchy when it comes to the personal lives of their tv personalities. You wouldnt see people fired over here for being in clubs, or being ... gasp ... offensive on a reality show.

As for Ben ... the kid is a horrible actor. No question. I was enjoying his torturing of Louise and fighting with Jordan for what I suspect were different reasons than the show intended.

Considering his mother is dead and Phil and Ian are on the show, I don't see where else Ben would go unless he's dead, sent to prison, or sent to a nuthouse. I doubt they'd try any of that with a 13 year old character for an extended period of time.

    • I skipped most of Daniel too. I think it's awful he has kids with Nicole, Csrky5 and Chloe and Brady, Bo and Philip do not.

    • Today was very focused on Bo and his illness.  I’m liking how everything is ultimately tied together, even though everybody doesn’t know it yet. The EJ connection seems a little sudden and random though. I’m guessing that that was not on Ron’s agenda. And I’m not really sure why any of these rich people couldn’t help the hospital months ago lol  But I really like how the whole sepsis drug thing is being written a lot more realistically than what we’ve grown accustomed to with Dr. Rolf and all of his wonder drugs. They’re definitely putting more of an effort into this storyline. It feels more real.  Philip was a little whiny and self-pitying today, but I also feel like the writing has improved for him as well. He’s coming off less like a villain and more like a tragic hero. I enjoyed his scene with Stephanie and hopefully it means that at some point, we’ll get a revival of Philip/ Stephanie/Alex. Tying it to Stephanie’s novel could be really good. And, the dorkiness of Xander and Sarah was really sweet too. I’m looking forward to their weekend together and what secrets may or may not come out lol 
    • "And I also want to flirt with every woman that comes my way... but then beat up anyone who talks to my wife. BECAUSE I'M A MAAAAAAAAAAAN." Give me a break with your ugly baby paintings... You're in the same category of the hacks that sell paintings with a single dot for thousands or even millions of dollars.

    • I have to check out his Bela Garody on Search for tomorrow. He was one of the main reasons EON worked for me when I was watching. Truly unforgettable presence. Handsome in the most perverse and sinister way. They don't make faces like that anymore. 
    • My favorite moment in SOAPDISH is the HW taking the star to the mall in NJ to improve "morale"!! 
    • Oh no! The shoulder pads! I will mourn them when they're gone. Please tell me the head pieces and hats remained!?
    • Shout! TV has now added season 26. Not sure what the reasoning for that was, but maybe it was the one that was ready to go... 
    • It's AWFULLY hard to tell.  But out of the (approximately) 16 weeks so far in 2025, Bryton has only had about 12 episodes.  That's significantly less than 1 per week.  Once the actor drops down to less than 1 per week for an extended period of time (such as a 39-week cycle), I start thinking there's no contract in place for him or her.  Surely these folks aren't tying themselves down to a show for a guarantee of 1 or 2 episodes a month.   If I counted right, Bryton has had 21 episodes in the past 24 weeks.  They're either (a) about to kick into high-gear & work his ass off to meet his minimum guaranteed appearances, or else (b) he ain't got a contract that guarantees him squat.
