That would tie in with Tracy’s ‘they’re not here’ line from the flashforward when asked about the Vic owners.

Wouldn't the time off they have for panto (Nov/ Dec) cover filming for eps in like Feb/ March though.

Unless Jessie and Shane are absent for Sept/ Oct too

I guess, I was just going off the news really.

It just seems like such a waste of potential, her entire return has been like that but killing her off leaves no chance of redemption or even a recast. I'd have had her leave for a "fresh start" with her kids, maybe near Sandra or even Brazil 😂 they definitely had options, I can't even argue Wadey is doing this for shock value bc it's just disappointing more than anything, he's completely destroyed the Slaters

The dialogue between Alfie and Jean in the hastily shot and shoehorned in football scene was pretty damn cringe, as usual for these things.

Alfie giving so much info about what happened in the match whilst dressed as a supporter.

I get why they do the kind of scene, but they are rarely any good.

Oh that scene wasn't even there when I watched it at lunchtime, must've been saved for TV broadcast

Oh... I watched it on iPlayer, but it was at about 7:30 so maybe they added it really late.

You didn't miss much 🤣

I’m kind of fascinated by how they’re going to do it, why do I feel like it will be sudden and petty and she just randomly dies of some sudden illness I am wondering if there’s more to it as Michelle did seem to be off screen for quite a while this year.

Also I’m finding it funny that there’s this whole “oh no Ian might go to jail for 2 years” saga when we know he was in the flash forward.

has he?

The only 3 Slaters in the show are Zoe, Kat and Lily.

Zoe's return has been awful. Kat can be good, but again is being dragged down by Zoe.

Lily, along with Tommy are probably the 2 best out of the Teen cast. Killing off Zoe may be OTT, but I do think her going would fix a lot of problems.

EDIT forgot about Jean... (who yeah has been largely awful, but was under CC) oh and I guess the rarely used Mo - who is awful under any producer :D

I was gonna say, Jean and Mo found rotting x

Diane Parish today (and always)

It’s now been said that apparently the exit was a mutual decision and the actress wanted to leave, and that it’s not confirmed that she’ll be killed off, but I’m not sure if it’s just production covering their backs.

Still baffling though considering that the likes of Zack, Mark, Josh and Johnny are still allowed to swan about.

Mark doesn't need to leave. He's a decent enough "bit player".

Josh has only just arrived.

I like Jonny, but he's a bit nothing.

I've been waiting for Zack to go for ages.

Michelle Streep’s dazzling act in the pub cellar with Tommy today 😍

Just rattled through all four episodes and the show is MUCH better this week and put all of that down to the absence of Bea. This week felt like it had properly written stories moving at an appropriate pace. Key players like Sharon, Ravi, Vicki and Ross being back and most of the good characters getting screen time. Even Mark is getting better now his initial storyline is done.

I do have to laugh that they’re still having a 90 year old Mo lugging boxes around all by herself.

Also living for Zoe going on another break (no wonder they’ve ended the contract) to Lynne’s no less! And Lynne has more doggy drama! Can’t wait to hear about it! They never ever go and see Little Mo, do they?

The thought of Lynne being unable to cope with anything in life without a Slater there to help her f***ing sends me every time

Oh they absolutely nailed Cleo's casting as she looks so much like Joel (helps being related to him for real I guess!).

At least she lived up to her reputation 😂

Ar Cleo to run the Vic please!

I echo the laughter at Zoe having to go to stay with Lynn because she needs help with her puppies.

The woman can't cope on her own with anything!! 😱

When Zoe goes they need to recast Lynne.

I’d scream if that was it and she just like dies of an aneurysm at Lynne’s or something lmfao
