Members DRW50 Posted November 17, 2011 Members Share Posted November 17, 2011 The promo's well put together. I'm hoping Derek isn't going to be as cartoonish as he is in that promo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted November 17, 2011 Members Share Posted November 17, 2011 Thanks for the video, YRWorldTurner. I can't say I'm overly looking forward to 'Branning week'. It looks like they're setting Derek up in competition with Phil, which instantly puts me off the storyline. The Branning brothers are a farce. Sperminator Jack should have been axed long ago yet they kep him in the show, he's just awful and serves no purpose. And Derek looks like the sort of character the show really does not need right now. At the moment we have the awful Michael Moon, Janine, who's a great villain but being misused at the moment, Yusef, et al... I was glad when I heard that they were bringing back Derek, I just think it's a shame he's this gangster type. Carol is brilliant, and Lynsey Coulson deserves more from the show than this. I'm glad to hear that Lucy's finally been re-cast. I think the Lauren and Ben re-casts have worked well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 17, 2011 Members Share Posted November 17, 2011 (edited) Janine and Pat MADE tonight's episode. I feel sick that I'll probably never get the two-hander I want with these two, especially since Pam filmed her last scenes already.

Members DRW50 Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 Loved it. Drags a little at the end but the rest is great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 Nitin Ganatra is the MVP of that video. Hilarious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 He's great in these. I loved the one he did with Nina when they were in Saturday Night Fever. And the jazz hands and fawning when Michelle and Alfie were singing in Eastend Street or whatever it was called. Rita Symons has a better voice than I realized. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 (edited) It's a bit behind, but I'd like to hear anyone's feedback. I really enjoyed Zoe Lucker's Vanessa Gold and was wondering if anyone else thought her exit fabulous? Broke, alone, dumped on the side of the wet road with the police looking for her. I thought Zoe was tremendous on EastEnders and would love to see her back, I can tell you I think she'd be the best landlady for the Queen Vic, I'm not feeling the Moons at all in that role. And lest we forget Vanessa's greatest scene...Bubbly's in the fridge... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ol4bu4QqgHc I dare say that with Peggy gone, Pat exiting...Albert Square needs a ballsy blond. Vanessa could be it! Edited November 19, 2011 by DaytimeFan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 I never understood what happened with Vanessa. They had a real chance with her, but it never went anywhere. The same happened with Glenda. I guess at least she never ended up with Phil. I did like the last second where she tried to get her dignity together, and walked down the road. It's funny because people often say the women on Eastenders are too dominant and the men are too weak. While the men may be weak, the women aren't too strong these days either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 What I loved is that she straightened her hair, picked up her suitcase and walked down that dirty road in her white pant suit, dignity intact. At least her exit was open ended, the producers at EastEnders would be very foolish to not have her back! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 It would be nice if she returned for Jodie's exit. What happened with Darren anyway? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 Vanessa confronted Darren on his wedding day, telling him he wasn't good enough for Jodie (he'd cheated on her and she stupidly forgave him). He bolted Walford. Jodie's already exited! She found out where Darren was living and left Walford to find him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 I guess that tells you how much I've watched the show lately. I liked the potential setup with Max, Vanessa, Darren, Jodie. It all ended so badly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 (edited) Anything rather than the atrocious Max/Tanya pairing. I've still no idea why they went down that road again! P.s. That video made me realise how much I love the current cast! Who was missing?: Tanya, Janine, Phil, Ben...?

Members MichaelGL Posted November 19, 2011 Members Share Posted November 19, 2011 Yeah the cast is great, it's just the writing for them that is the problem. Dot also wasn't in the video as well. Both Adam and Nitin were the MVP of that video. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
