Mel has really felt like a spare part though since Hunter left which is a shame really because she’s not had any other storyline

I hope mel and lisa have screen time together.

About watch 5 episodes in a row what I missed when I was away!

 

It’s so weird what you miss when you’re on holiday in such a lovely place :lol:

Was that a photo of... Charlie Jones' Ben?! :o

Steve McFadden just gave his best performance in years.

100% agreed!! Superb scenes between Phil and Ben.

Superb delivery tonight, Steve McFaddens strongest for some time.

 

The kid who plays Ollie reminds me of the mute that used to be Amy.

This is definitely the best UK soap right now.

 

Just seen all last weeks episodes as well as the two from this week.

 

Such strong acting in general.

 

There’s no real weak links in the cast at the moment.

 

Kate Oates is working wonders right now. Every soap she’s done so far has at the time she’s been in charge been my favourite. I love her way of producing and she really allows people to shine and gets the best out of characters who were perhaps a bit stale this time last year.

Well there is Danny Dyer. I cringe in every scene.

 

I also cringed in the scene with shirley and that mum.

It has improved greatly and they are really making the cast work, there is no over focus on anyone/family in-particular which is welcoming as it gives everyone time to shine.

The storylines are moving slowly but with progression which helps give a stronger climax.

I laughed at the Shirley scene :lol:

 

I deal too much with parents like that woman and ones like Shirley, I was just willing the scene to end.

I haven't watched for two weeks to avoid the unrealistic results storylines. Any episodes I need to watch?

The Phil and Ben scenes are more than worth tuning into Algernon Monqueef.

I’d say Monday’s and last nights.

 

And last Monday’s was also a good one.

Most of the episodes these days are worth tuning in for.

 

Shirley's scene reminded me of a parody of this:

 

A new family arriving this Autumn: a trio of brothers, Kheerat, Jags and Vinny Panesar.

Omg slay me finally a Sikh family after all these years *.* I also demand an iconic gurdwara gossip queen matriarch once they've settled in.
