EastEnders: Discussion Thread

Sammie1Million tends to post all the key clips. Her channel documents the Slater family, so Kat's scenes and Ronnie's scenes in this storyline will be documented on that channel.

I don't know of any channel that posts full episodes anymore.

Oh, this channel has episodes from early December to January 6th posted. So, pretty much a lot of Stacey's final weeks and the beginning of this baby switch storyline, which kicked off on New Year's Eve.

Thanks, Alvin.

Thanks. I thought Sammie only posted the Kat stuff from up to 2005.

Oh wow, I just watched those scenes, and that was POWERFUL stuff. I really got chills when Ronnie realized what she did and was going to take James back. Then the ambulance was there, and Jack came back (is that a different actor playing Jack?)and Kat got there. I felt bad for both of them.

Now that I've seen it, I'm really wondering what the big deal is. I just don't get it. It's dramatic. It's soapy. It's emotional, and it doesn't really seem like a plot point. Ronnie clearly was out of her mind with grief and reacted, but she realized her mistake only to be slapped in the face by the reality of what she did, before she could fix it.

Ronnie looked like she crapped her pants in Friday's episode when Kat barged in to get Tommy's toy that Alfie had given away. She was so hiding that kid from Kat's eyes. Poor Kat had that emotional breakdown in the end with Tommy's toy in her hand. Kat, at her core, has always been a scared/vulnerable lost girl, and this story is showing that. I'm losing sympathy for Ronnie though, but I can understand how scared she is to admit to what she did.

Very powerful post.

At least it looks like Bryan Kirkwood's job is safe. Mark Thompson the BBC director general, has confimed that there will be no firings or disciplinary proceedings.

Apparently, Laurie Brett is pregnant. I wonder if they'll give Jane a miracle baby, or if not, how they'll write around it and write her out for her maternity leave in a few months.

They really should write Sharon back in. Ian needs a friend, and the show seems to be ignoring the friendship he once had with Alfie.

Pics from Sonia's one-off return in scenes with Carol and Ricky.

Is it me or has Cassidy lost weight?

[DRW50]

My guess is that Jane will conceal a pregnancy and then leave to have her baby, not wanting Ian to know.

The tabloids continue to be in a feeding frenzy against Bryan Kirkwood, claiming that they are furious with how he treated Sam Womack, saying that the cast is quitting (although all they have given so far is Lindsey Coulson -- I hope she stays but if she goes I doubt Kirkwood is to blame, as she likely only ever returned for a brief stay), saying the cast is up in arms over the upcoming Whitney story). I really do think that someone out there has had an issue with Kirkwood from early on and it's probably going to keep on and on.

I know some think Lindsey would leave because she's upset about Devon Anderson's firing. I love Lindsey Coulson but Devon was a terrible actor and it was a big mistake to ever bring him back.

[Bright Eyes]

Lindsay Coulson cannot go. She is the best actor on the show, probably in it's entire history. (That last part may be an exaggeration, so SUE me)
