They might have thought most viewers who remembered Sharon would remember she was on the tape. I do wish that Ian had gone into a bit more details -- I think he mentioned everyone in the band but Sharon.

Kirkwood said he was a big Eastenders fan and if he is then I guess you can see that most in him doing his own "teenage characters form a band" story on Hollyoaks a few years ago, with the Dirty Diegos.

The people who ran Eastenders at this time I think went on to say the story was just awful but I think it's kind of a fun adventure for teens. Back then on Eastenders, and in life, teenagers were still allowed to have fun and slowly go into the real world, aside from Michelle of course.

Apparently, Sam's last episode and Minty's is at the end of September. I guess they go off happily together, even though I suspect Sam will always treat him as her last resort, since she has no one else in her life to look forward to.

Even if the baby isn't his, I can see Minty still wanting to raise it with Sam.

Maybe they'll still have Sam occasionally make visits from time to time. Phil doesn't have any immediate family anymore, yes he has Ronnie, Roxy, and Billy, but they're not his siblings.

I was just watching an episode from when Sue Osman was pregnant and not far from giving birth, and Ali was fussing over her, and Dot said something like, "That's how Charlie was when I was carrying my Nick. Or he would have been, if he'd been there." :lol:

I disagree with almost everything on that list. How can Grant be above Den? I can't believe Angie is so far down or that Ricky is above Kathy or Nick Cotton is above Ian. It must have been deliberately done to stoke controversy.

Daran Little is writing the Monday episode to that week, right? When was the last time someone wrote that many consecutive episodes? I know that was being planned for a while, as Dominic Treadwell-Collinns said Simon Ashdown was writing all of Barbara Windsor's final episodes.

I guess this is how Ryan will find out about Lily, and it's also a Vic Fire spoiler:

    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
