That Pam look-alike supporting artist is really starting to bug me now. Why was she put in a floral print blouse and placed prominently behind Max at the cafe? And will someone PLEASE give that Chinese lady a job? All she ever does is shop.

I saw Aaron Sidwell on stage in the musical Grey Gardens where he played the dual roles of the eldest Kennedy son (the one who was killed in World War II) and a Long Island slacker. He was terrific. I'm glad he's returning to theatre work.

So out of all the story possibilities for Jay to have, they rewrite his history and Jase is no longer his dad?

So stupid. 

 

Whatever happened to that Star girl? Did she ever come clean about her part in lying to Jay about her age? If not, why not undo making Jay being a sexual predator by having her come clean? How about bringing a nice young woman on the Square for him? 

 

This "story" is gonna be more about Phil than it is gonna be about Jay.

@Nothin'ButAttitude Star just disappeared from the canvas. "Bex and Star go to Ben's 21st birthday party but Jay insists she leaves. Star tells Jay that she still has feelings for him and went to the party so she could see him again, and tells Jay that Madison, who Jay has been talking to at the party, is 15 and he therefore knew what he was doing with Star and is now doing it again."

As if a gas explosion, an arson attack and a shooting weren’t enough, there is even more tragedy ahead in EastEnders when an ambulance carrying Johnny and Linda Carter crashes, leaving their lives hanging by a thread.

The massive week of Walford action sees a chain of tragic events unfold and not everyone will come out alive – and the Grim Reaper appears to be looming over Johnny in particular.

We have already seen the pictures from filming scenes which see the ambulance crash into a tanker and overturn and eagle-eyed fans will have noticed that Johnny was sporting an existing wound.

Now, call us Sherlock Holmes, but it seems likely that it was a gunshot wound, meaning that Johnny could be the one on the receiving end of a bullet from Ted Murray.

 
Johnny dies in EastEnders shooting and tanker crash horror?
(Picture: BBC)

Ted is left in a panic as the gas explosion brings back horrific memories so he grabs the pistol that his wife Joyce had implored him not to bring to their new home.

When a resident then comes to find them amid the chaos, he opens fire and accidentally shoots someone.

Whether or not this is what happens to Johnny remains to be seen but a further stunt is afoot as the ambulance crashes and Mick looks on in dismay as emergency services wheel out a lifeless Johnny.

Have the Carters lost one of their own?

One to watch: Friday 8th September at 8pm on BBC One.

Edward, I met her about 14 years ago when I was at Elstree meeting a friend. It was a distinctly unpleasant experience. Out of all the EE actors I've met over the years, both in person and over the phone, she and Sid Owen stand out to me as the ones who I've been most unimpressed by. What they both seemed to have in common was...well, they exemplified the term "common." Both were grubby, humorless a**holes who seemed to have no interest in anyone or anything beyond the immediate world in which they inhabited. Which is pretty unusual as far as actors go-their curiosity is sometimes a major factor in how they work.

    • In a way, Denise's inability to decide on which college to attend (before deciding to attend her family's alma mater and the college everyone knew she'd be attending anyway) was a clear signal that the poor girl was a flake and not "college material."  Denise Huxtable was someone who peaked in high school, lol. With guest stars Deborah Adair (ex-Jill, Y&R; ex-Tracy, DYNASTY; ex-Lucy, MP; ex-Kate, DAYS), Christopher Allport (ex-Tim McGowan, AW) and John de Lancie (ex-Eugene, DAYS)! "Frame" is one of those MSW's that you THINK is gonna be paint-by-numbers (no pun intended), and then it surprises you with one of those twist endings that often made episodes so enjoyable. I seriously wish they had gone for a Steven/Bart/Sammy Jo triangle instead, with Steven and Sammy Jo fighting over Bart, lol. And I still think Claudia burning to death at La Mirage was DYNASTY's dumbest cliffhanger. The perfect time to kill off Chase, IMO.  Alas.

    • Spoke with my contacts at Lifetime. As of now, there is nothing to share in terms of updates. 
    • Which is still a form of manipulation. Granted it won't work because Ted isn't interested in Leslie at all no matter how much she tries to make him look like a horrible person. When you consider the situation with Hayley it does make sense why Anita would take that approach.
    • Another good one and great episode to start off the week. Confrontations, character moments, movement, and an awful lot of bubbles on display. lol.    I've found myself liking Sara Bibel breakdowns. And this episode might be why. I sense movement of plot going on. And Jazmen being on script duty has already become a highlight for me. So this episode dealing with more fallout from the SilkPress/Eva reveal was another good one. And even got a solid B plot moving in the Vanessa/Doug/Joey storyline...which I just said yesterday...has been the only one of the B plots...that has real build to it so far.    You are not a real soap pariah until you get dragged and a community treats you as such. So basically another old school soap vibe that Eva is giving me. Watching her trying to find her footing only to be read by just about everyone she has encountered has been great. It makes her so rootable. And she's played by an excellent actress. Cuz that quivering lip at the end with her and Anita...ooooo some of you all seem heated for Anita making poor girl cry even though it's her fault. That's great acting. Not to mention writing.    I also love that the side character got their point of view. I loved Mona moving about town trying to get info to avenge Nicole in a way. And she dragged Eva. She read Silk Press Sheila. And that 'enjoy the burn' was well-said. And did I see a spark with Mona and Randy? Hmmm. I don't mind.

          I also didn't mind that Martin/Kat scene. I enjoy their sibling relationship so far. And I feel like the right thing to do to keep them close as they support their mother. It even made sense that Martin would soften to the idea of Eva as part of the family given their brief scene at the start of this storyline. Meanwhile, NO from Kat. lol. And she's already questioning the DNA test...OF COURSE SHE IS. But again...that avail...her and Eva being the SAME age. Twins. I just felt the writers are really foreshadowing that heavy. Meanwhile, the SilkPress saga is far from over.   I love the parade of Ted Visitors. LMAO!!! I thought Dani vs Ted was pretty good. But I about fell out when Anita walked up in there like old school Sonny Corinthos. And I hollered with Anita wiping the floor with Ted with Dani in the background like Jason Morgan. Watch your step, Theodore. Anita was giving Boss Bitca and I was living.    That said...I didn't like Anita making poor Eva cry. But as was said above...the stuff with Hayley is still too fresh on the Duprees' mind. So sadly understandable, Anita set down the law.    Uh oh. Dani saw Vanessa with Joey. Granted they are not the BFFs, but I do hope that that means we are getting a Dani/Vanessa scene. And I loved that we got another step in the B storyline. Doug fighting (and failing) in his addiction. Meanwhile, Vanessa resisted hers. And Joey did not look happy.    And saying the best for last. I LOVE Nicole vs Silk Press Sheila. Ooooo Nicole got under her skin good. And I loved it. I also hollered at Silk Press couldn't even be fake nice for 5 whole minutes to her. DD did soooooooo good. The body language. The looks. The inflections on just the right words. I LOOOVVVE that confrontation and looking forward to more since she clearly verbally cracked SilkPress's face. Meanwhile, I was just as taken aback at Ted showing up at Silk Press Sheila's place. I also thought it was another fantasy. Nope. And then SilkPress put the moves on him and went just a little more cray cray in the coda.    Just such a great episode.

    • Nope still in development. ABC/Disney are having their upfronts today though, so there's a very slight hope we might get an update.
    • Has anyone ever posted January and February 1974? I can't find them in the 'Look Back to 75' thread. Thanks.
    • Did January and February 1974 DSN ever get posted? I can't seem to find it in this thread.
    • I agree. Especially after SilkPress got back to her apartment and started to mock Nicole. Her dislike for Nicole and seeing her as a threat to her getting Teddy Bear is growing worse. So I could see her pulling a kidnapping on Nicole at some point. If anything she was going there to poke the bear and got pressed (pun unintended) when the bear gathered her.   Completely understandable.
