EastEnders: Discussion Thread

Alexander Lamb was named series story associate tonight.

[DRW50]

No relation to Larry I assume.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

I'm kind of surprised, but happy as well. Jean works well as the quirky supporting character. So much of her existence has been based on Stacey though, so it should be interesting to see what they do with her when Stacey's not there. At least it means they'll still be more of a Slater presence on the show.

I know they also extended Charlie's exit according to Derek Martin.

I think Alexander Lamb was the series story editor with Caroline Roby.

[Bright Eyes]

I loved tonight's episode.

Poor Glenda, having to go from the sexy Leon to the drab pig that is Phil. However, I did love how 1) she just left Ian in the flat and 2) the end scene ... "Goodbye Philip ... Goodbye Auntie Glenda!" That was made of win.

Here's the 50 Greatest EastEnders Weddings Countdown that aired a few weeks ago:

I disagree with a lot of the placings on this list. Pat and Frank's wedding should have been #1 (can't believe they're only #19), not Peggy and Archie's.

[DRW50]

Ugh, Peggy/Archie being #1 is just politics. I'm so tired of the overhyped Archie stuff.

How did you get all those videos into one message? I thought the limit was 2.

[Sylph]

Why doesn't this show already get rid of the useless Jane? She is about to "visit" a hotel with Mas and even though there's something entertaining about their relationship, the two just don't mash.

The ominous knocking on the door was hilarious: they are screaming and expect that the one who knocked won't know they're there.

A familiar name. Thank you for the info.

Dot is annoying. I hate it when such a character becomes iconic (and she's been one for decades). Though, sometimes I like her.

[Bright Eyes]

The Dot scenes the past two days are just heartbreaking. Does anyone know where they're going with this? And who was the person Dot said Julie reminded her of? I heard Diesel, but that doesn't seem right.

[Sylph]

Heartbreaking?

[Bright Eyes]

Well, it doesn't make me cry or nothing, but yes, that word fits nicely. Your judgment didn't answer my question though.

I have a suspicion, but I'll let Alvin tell you, he should know it better.

She does this sort of thing twice a year, always accompanied by citing the Gospel.

[DRW50]

Apparently

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Dot has been very lonely since Bradley died and even more lonely since Liz left. It looks like it's finally catching up with her, all she does it look after Jim.

I don't know exactly where they're headed, but she has some upcoming scenes with Pat after Pat finds out that

Dot being Dot and "not one to gossip!" should have a parade with that one.
