Given all 6 episodes a watch...

 

 

Ugh at Abe still not being found out. At least Peri is finally onto him though as of the final ep. Cleo needs to wake up ASAP.

Love that Myra is back, even if hers and Nana's return was very subdued. Hopefully Myra is back for a little while now.

I literally couldn't care less about Diane, or Ro for that matter. Arlo is a disgusting little shit and you just know something horrid is going to happen between him and Ro.

 

Some good stuff coming up!

 

Surely Abe's time is running out now?? Cleo waking up spot on at the end of the episode was classic soap production, it was so dramatic :lol:

I’ve got a feeling Abe is gonna kill his mum or something, this really really needs to be the end of it now. Everyone involved has played a blinder and it has been great but there absolutely was no need to drag it on this long! There’s no more twists or turns they can do, nowhere Abe can hide, it has to be it.

Imagine if we had to actually live through the whole year of Abe/ Cleo being held captive in Real Time.

If that did just happen, killing Dilly off is one of the biggest mistakes they’ve made since this show came back and that is no mean feat :lol:

 

I am wondering if the purported serial killer storyline is Jez rather than Martha or both of them even… I expect one or both of them did Jez and Patrick’s dad in, which is just giving Breda McQueen all over again.

Today's episode was really strange. So we know now that Dilly is dead (what the actual f*** though?) but it was the way Jez was somewhat signalling to Martha that's what had happened and expected her to.play along? At least that was the vibe I was getting.

 

Is Dodger undercover and working for the police? Something about his interaction with Rex asking for the name of (Dylan) triggered that though especially in how Rex reacted.

 

I'm keen to see JJ get a guilty verdict but things have so far played out to suggest it will be not guilty.

I’m finding it utterly insane that they’ve killed off two people in sienna’s family unit in order to kind of… refresh her family unit? There is absolutely no need to have basically brought back Patrick now Jez is a serial killer and thus a villain. I think it would have been nice for Sienna to have a “normal” family unit, but really Ethan/Dilly/Liberty sufficed for that. I don’t see what the show gains from Patrick’s evil twin being a serial killer. And to just have Sienna casually like oh well :) what on EARTH?!

 

Not to mention the ending of the JJ/Frankie storyline which has been a highlight of the show this past year (of which there aren’t a huge amount…) being pushed to the side for that rubbish.

 

Sad news today also as Diane Langton (Nana McQueen) has died :(

Not Nana McQueen she would've only filmed her Christmas scenes a few months ago that's awful RIP

Former Hollyoaks star Paul Danan has died aged 46

DI Banks being the gang leader was a bit of a shock :lol:

I had actually forgotten Myra decided to stick around after Christmas. This was her first appearance since!

Another week another “surely this is the end of Abe” post :lol: This is beyond the realms of ridiculous now, well over a month since Cleo was found, everyone pretty much knows, and they are still going round in circles.

I'm sorry but he's posted all of the videos including Leela's on a porn site? Dear lord, end this storyline now please

This is absolutely f***ing insane do they have SO little going on that they have to drag this out as much as possible. Like what part of any of this is remotely enjoyable or intriguing.

I have no idea why DI Banks got the website took down? Obviously we know about his serious corruption now but why would he be supporting Abe unless he's got something on him?

Some of the Abe scenes have made for intense viewing. As much as I hate the character, I applaud Tyler Conti for playing him so convincingly. I can't see Tony or Joel bowing out because of what's happened though.

Idk why they couldn’t have just had Abe facing justice, I am assuming Jez will kill him now. All that dragging out the storyline and they just kind of end it to further another sensationalist storyline.

It came out of nowhere but I’m not NOT here for Cleo x Sienna, if anything I’m glad they are actually remembering Sienna is bi and giving her something a little different. Cleo could have a little bit of time to just breathe and exist and chill after just getting out of a coma and being locked up for a year though :lol:

 

And I was right about Abe, something is just really off to me about there not being justice, a satisfying ending for his victims, they just tie his demise into a sensationalist serial killer storyline instead of having him get a proper comeuppance.

I definitely didn't have Sienna and Cleo on my bingo card.
