Bobby’s utter distain for Ian is giving me life.

Because it BREAKS BELIEVABILITY SO MUCH!! SO MUCH!!! that I can't believe ANY of it!

To be fair it's unrealistic that anyone would slap anyone in soap really. People don't tend to slap one another in the middle of a heated argument and there would certainly be consequences if anyone did. It's just part of the dramatic licence soaps have.

Interesting to see what the Bobby storyline is building too.

That's true 🤣 But it certainly wouldn't happen with the hardest woman on the square that Sharon is terrified of and after showing no ability to fight! It's not skill by osmosis - she doesn't get the skill because Phil has it :lol:

What evidence is there that Karen is the hardest woman on the square? Isn’t it only Sharon that she’s punched? I can’t remember whether she hit Michelle’s stalker or not. But there is no reason why Sharon couldn’t knock her out with a lucky punch.

 

There are plenty of ‘unrealistic’ things going on with Sharon right now but that is not one of them.

It really is. The punch looked horrendous too. Karen is the Square hardwoman. No one would expect Jay or Martin to knock oot Phil. It'd be unbelievable - the same with Sharon and hard Karen.

Why does Eastenders always exaggerate the intelligence of its characters?? They're always out clubbin and fighring etx and they always get As and Bs? :lol: No one ever resits anythin either. Bex fsiled EVERYTHING up until final exams. The best she could get would be Cs and Bs. What an utter joke! A Levels are across 2 years!

I mean retakes are a thing so anything she did fail she probably took again but I’m not sure EE or the public care enough about the minor details of how a character achieved their A Level results :rofl:

People getting results should give Eastenders a miss that week as it'd make them feel bad to see these thick characters overachiening somehow.

In the contrary, other than when she went missing for a couple of days, all Bex has done this year is study and jog so I think it’s pretty realistic she got those grades. She hasn’t failed much to my knowledge. From what I can remember, her music GCSE grade was disappointing but she hasn’t even been studying music so that’s irrelevant now. She’s has a few nights out here and there but what 18 year old doesn’t? I got really good A Level results and I was certainly no monk in my final year of school. And we’ve seen her studying way more than we’ve seen her partying.

 

Bex getting those grades isn’t as unrealistic as people are making out. It is unrealistic that Oxford would have offered her a place to begin with but those grades were definitely achievable for her. If Louise gets straight A*s next year, THAT would be unrealistic.

 

Mick and Linda really are jerks. That can’t be overstated.

Linda is the stronger of Mick and Linda.

Similar to Kat and Alfie, Kat is better with Alfie, Linda would be better without Mick.

Kat is so so sooo much better than Alfie!

Mick is an absolute dick. I can understand him not wanting anything to do with Stuart but hiding his illness is so pathetic and yet another storyline where he makes everything worse for himself.

 

Bobby’s return is being handled so well. I year ago I’d have put money on psycho Bobby returning and terrorising the square.

 

Sonia was life giving in that episode.

OMG Lucy is back :o as a ghost :lol:

With a very convincing body double!

Agreed! This is so much more interesting that the teen psycho route that we've seen all too many times. It also makes up for the shoddy work they did of the Who Killed Lucy? storyline after we had found out it was Bobby who killed her; it's brought the humanity back to the story which was what made it so strong to begin with.

So far they have handled it well and it is slow paced which usually works much better for any storyline.

Sharon bursting the balloons *.*

 

Mel’s mood swings were life, I’m really gonna miss her.
