I'm disappointed we don't know what's up with Lisa?

 

Hopefully this leads to a surprise return! Especially with Mel around now.

 

Yeah this, I kept thinking have I missed something? I wonder who it was that Louise spoke to on the phone.

So apparently Mel was only going to be back for a year but Tamsin loved her stories so much she decided to stay longer.

 

Something tells me this is a lie. You don’t get Mel back for a year to have her do almost nothing.

I don't believe that either I think it's the truth with a few twists.

Lmao what stories apart from her and Jack which was pointless :drama: Her involvement in the heist story was next to nothing too.

Hayley has become awful. Why do the producers expect us to like her and push her so much :lol:

This is sounding really impressive! I'm really looking forward to her making her mark, she seems to really have some good ideas and god knows this show needs it.

 

 

Also Bernie and Karen yday <3

I tuned in to EE for the first time in ages and what a sight to return to *.*

Watched for the first time in an age. God it was f***ing awful.

That episode really highlighted how isolated Mel is from most of the characters. Why were half of them even at her wedding? That said, I did enjoy those scenes.

 

It has been hyped up but I don’t really get why. Everything pretty much happened as Mel wanted it too. I guess the shock was that we were supposed to think she was dead when she turned up in the church but it was always obvious that she wasn’t.

 

It was nice to see Mick and Linda do some light stuff for a change.

 

Just because Halfway wants kids doesn’t mean they should be trying. Goodness knows neither of them has thought through the practicalities and Whitney’s living in a house that already has 7 children under 10 in it.

Right?! They have no home and no money!

 

I did wonder why anyone went to it. I'd expect only Sharon and Jack and some extras.

 

But I don't get why Mel was disappointed when Ray was arrested?

I think she wanted them all there to humiliate him in front of as many people as possible.

It’s clear why Mel wanted them there just not why they all actually went! Ian, Billy and Honey I sort of get but did Shirley, Tina, Jay and Keanu have nothing else to do? On New Years Day :lol: they should have just made more effort to integrate Mel throughout the year. Tamzin is proving her worth but they need to use her better.

 

Part of me is loling that Sonia only exists these days to be in a crowd of people at events and maybe say one line.

To be honest I actually didn't care about the whole episode, it seems like a wasted hour of awful viewing its just one of those weddings that wasn't warranted, the story around Ray and Mel just seems going nowhere, and when are they going to end the Stuart story with Mick, there isn't any decent story going, Tiffany with the gang is actually boring as hell. Its like the Slaters really are saving EE at the moment, whatever you throw at them, you always get a decent story. It just needs a good kicking in the right direction with a couple of decent storylines.

It was a complete non event, having both alfie and mel play dead was just boring in the space of a week. I really like tamzin othwaite but the storyline was just so flat as was the reveal.

That was a bit of a let down. I think the second part was tomorrow's episode, as there is no Eastenders on Monday due to Football.

Well I found it entertaining hilarious and ridiculous all at the same time . :lol:

Lmao at that bit of Ray coming out of the ground. What I’m hoping for now is Ciara to come back off the back of this.

Well that was certainly more gripping. Though we knew Ray would die as he was the most disposable and that Hunter would kill him because they wouldn’t bring Tamzin Outhwaite back to have her time cut short by limiting her as a murderer. Ciara should certainly return off the back of this and I guess Mel will attempt to take the fall for Hunter.

 

I desperately want Lisa back more than ever now.
