Wait and see, they will recast Shabnam again.

I hope not, Rakhee has made too much of an impression for Shabnam to be recast. Just look at the controversy surrounding the Martin recast, despite James Alexandrou not making half the impression and being away from the role for nearly 9 years at the time! That said, it's clear there was still more to come for Shabnam's character, just like there was for Johnny, so you never know.

 

Suppose it depends on whether they can get her back at a later date and also depends on how eager they are to continue her stories. I hear rumours are/were flying around about Rakhee becoming the next Doctor Who companion, so it may be some time before she returns, if ever.

Very unrealistic that not one person stepped in, especially an uncle who she gets on with. I too really felt sorry for Abi considering that Ben has been sleeping with fellas behind her back and was essentially ever only using her to cover his own sexuality.

 

 

Aside from all that can they please not make abi the new janine.

I hate how everyone will most likely take his side in the soap :/ He cheated on her, used her to hide his sexuality, nearly gave her a STD and humiliated her in public

Oh that's it now, all of Albert Square must stop because Sausage is here and the Carters need to be centre stage. He is cute though.

Exactly, whilst two wrongs don't make a right, how is it fine for him to do all of that and yet she is kind of twisted and manipulated by Babe, gets carried away a bit by revenge and she's the devil incarnate :lol:

 

But oh yes, he's a Mitchell :rolleyes:

why is ben playing victim?

Jesus Christ even her own family gives no f***s :lol: Even Tanya will probably turn her away.

Sorry but why does Abbi not tell Babe is all behind this?

SLAY JAY SLAY *.*

Jay really needs a bigger storyline it's long overdue

Jay Spilling the tea *.*

Hmmm, thoughts on that episode.

 

1) Marie is QUEEN of karaoke with that Waterloo performance.

2) Carters stealing another duff duff unnecessarily-does DTC need to squeeze as many in as he can before he's off?

3) Dot had the best reaction to the reveal 'what do you wanna do that for?' as if Abi just knocked a plant over by accident.

4) Jay was brilliant. But the Louise scene screamed of LINZI IS UNDERAGE ZOMG

5) not convinced yet by new Johnny or how he doesn't know of the rape. How on Earth did they explain the wedding pictures of Mick in the dressing gown then?

6) it was incredibly stupid his Masood is not allowed to be upset with Stacey. I'm sorry but like Abi, Stacey needs to deal with the consequences of what she did.

How old is Carmel meant to be? I don't understand why Masood said she was "too old" for him when Bonnie Langford is 51 and Nitin Ganatra is 48.

 

Shame the happy clappy Carter scene spoiled the mood again at the start of the episode, but the rest got better. Wasn't really blown away by nuJohnny but I'm sure he'll fit into the role better as we see more of him. I liked the scene where he started singing, unbeknown to him, the song that was playing when Linda was raped.

 

Jay's line to Louise about her being only 14 pretty much proves Linzi will be underage too. Spoilers for next week show Jay goes to Louise's school and makes some sort of discovery, so two guess what that may be...

And Ben doesn't? I know Abi does but Ben needs to, too.

Have you been reading my posts? Of course Ben does but I was just pointing out that Abi is receiving comeuppance for her wrongdoing and yet everyone seems to think Stacey gets a free pass for hers. I've actually been rather supportive of Abi.

What is it with Carmel and staring/shouting at windows?

I thought that when she started shouting for Denise! :lol:

 

I was quite relieved when she almost immediately opened the window to avoid another odd 5 minute scene of Carmel getting to know the Windows of Walford.

Obviously in all scenes planned for Carmel to interact with Shabnam, they had to quickly replace her with windows.

Ah Okay I get that now sorry I just thought you meant Ben didnt my bad :lol:
