I'm sorry, but what kind of stupid even is Whitney? How on Earth did she think she could stay in the flat she could barely afford when her husband with a job lived with her now? Not to mention how she never offered to give it up to help Mick out with Lee's debts.

 

How come Trish is no longer a bitch like she was with Lola?

 

Shirley calling Abi a scrubber made me cackle.

 

Oh, and Helen may be my new all time favourite character.

Dot looking at bushes on the internet.

 

Michelle 2.0 still a shit character.

Bex coming for her Janine moment still. Mark my words!

Bex to be the new Stacey plz

Was Jack really gone long enough for Dot to drive all the way to the garden centre and halfway home? He was only picking Ricky up from school. And it's not as if Dot left immediately either.

eastenders is so shit rn

Could be worse. They haven't cast Eloise Mignon yet.

I'm loving Denise. If she wasn't centre of the show right now, I'd be in no hurry to watch.

 

I think she's now become my all-time fave Eastenders character.

"WALFORD'S VERY OWN NELSON MANDELA" is the first time I've laughed at Kim in bloody AGES :lol: Her characterisation is a mess though, she's been a knob for a while and then suddenly she's the OTT comedy pastiche again.

 

I agree about Denise though, it's absolutely brilliant to see her shine after being left in the shadows for so long!

michelle not having any of Bex's shit tho*.* quuen

Bex and Preston though.

yasss michelle

Omg. Ian in the nuddy, poor Stacey with that image on her mind :drama:

Ew!, Michelle and Preston.

Is Stacey seeing Ian naked supposed to be a new recurring gag?

 

Jack is an absolute mess of a character. I just want Charlie to turn up and whisk Matthew away. Again we see Jack acting father of the year, lording it over everyone and yet it was about 12 hours since he'd left Matthew with Dot and he only found out walking into the pub (and Ricky and Amy were with who at this point?)

 

Speaking of which, I love Abi's new things of storming into buildings to shout at people and then leave.

 

The chip on Kim's shoulder *.*

I loved the #HurricaneAbi easter egg (at least I think it was) in reference to #HurricaneSharon

OH f*** OFF THEN MICHELLE.

 

Honestly I thought the woman had seen sense but clearly she thinks it's alright to start sleeping with him again now that he's in the UK and the age of consent in over 16 here, despite the fact that, as far as the law states, back in the US, she took advantage, groomed him and should be on a register and in an orange jumpsuit in a cell.

I did enjoy the throwback to this classic Beale scene though:

 

Jack is by far the worst character in while who does he think he is literally :lol:

I honestly thought they were going to have Preston rape Michelle. But I was face palming as soon as she headed upstairs with him.

That would be a really dangerous message for the show to portray, but I wouldn't put anything beyond them now.
