I’m not gonna lie, I’m loving Priya 😂 Honey has no sympathy from me. I don’t give a shit, you don’t burn someone’s things no matter who’s influencing you. The fact that it’s Bea makes it even worse because there is no reason to be trusting her. I would back Billy in not wanting to forgive Honey easily but he will.

Only had time for one episode tonight so I’ll catch up tomorrow. Surprised Sheila actually hasn’t been in contact with Gray all this time but she’s still clearly unhinged AF. Cindy is really a character you can just never feel sorry for. I don’t know if it’s her OTT character or Michelle Collins’ ropey acting but she ain’t Janine.

Boring number 1. A pretty unserious artist taking himself way too seriously and riding on the success of his previous no.1 .

No issue getting Yearbook 99 from my local HMV this morning. Glad it’s got the good version of Shania on it. But surprised to see Scott Mills get a shout out in the booklet.

Swagger Jagger was absolutely dreadful. I wasn’t a big Cher Lloyd fan when she was on the show but this song turned her into a novelty act.

The problem this time isn’t just believing the new character it’s the fact that this new character has already been proved dodgy AF.

I am not invested in Suki and Eve getting a child. Suki was a dreadful mother and Eve never wanted to be one. Part of me hopes that when the truth about Bea comes out, Billy actually gives Honey the cold shoulder. Though I predict he’ll just forgive her straight away. Given that Kim seems to have gotten involved, it’s weird she’s forgotten her battle to help Patrick stop using AI Anthony.

Making the way for some proper Yearbooks?

Nicola vs Suki is the feud we deserve but it does seem to have just randomly started. I can’t really remember anything of it from before? I guess Ravi holding Barney off a bridge might have kickstarted something but I don’t really remember. I don’t see why all these people who have known Billy for years are doubting him? Yes, he’s made mistakes before but ALL they know about Bea is how dodgy she is? She’s already committed fraud that they all know about? You can almost hear the writes going ‘Yas go Bea iconic!’ Thinking that her cutting the head off the doll will become a new trending meme but they have just gotten this one so wrong.

I know it makes sense and all but I really wish they’d leave Karen in the last, horrendous character. Bea, who hasn’t even been in Walford a full six months and has literally made one friend in all that time and only had sporadic weird interactions with other characters, seems surprised no one remembered her birthday. She likely hasn’t had the opportunity to tell anyone about it. I know Honey has always been a ditsy character but they’re really doing a number on her intelligence. She’s not supposed to be that thick. And when you wonder whether Zoe’s dating app references are building to a new juicy storyline but no, it’s just another random Bea thread.

I’m not sure Burnham would end up quite like Starmer. The press would go for him because he’d be a Labour Prime Minister that’s for sure but I think there’s a good chance he’ll handle it better than Starmer has. That’s always been Starmer’s problem in my opinion. He is unable to take criticisms well and spends way too much time trying to please critics that he’ll never be able to satisfy. He has taken for granted many Labour voters as his u turns and speeches about an island of strangers have been all about trying to get lost cause reform voters on side and yet go against the people who voted for him in the first place. He’s aimed to please everyone and ended up pleasing none. I do think Burnham may have a thicker skin.

I wasn’t sure Hanson would sneak in but glad to see them there!

Sheila is nowhere near old enough to be Grey’s Nan. Not when we already met his dad, her son, who looked no very much younger than she appears. I mean I’m sure there’s mathematics that can support it, but she wasn’t exactly Mo Harris was she?

Diane Parrish has always been a powerhouse but it’s good to finally see her centre stage with a good storyline. The last time they chose her to be leading lady she was eating out of bins, cooking pasta and studying for a single GCSE, they’re giving her the decent stuff. And I love Kim as a comedy character but Tameka always excels at the big drama too. She was sensational last night making me feel without even saying a word. I’ve always believed those two as sisters. Speaking of which it’s incredible to think that Zaraah and Belinda have never been on screen together before yesterday. They have also got the sister chemistry. I did love Jordan tonight describing Nicola as ‘the big scary lady with the yellow hair’.

Matt Cardle’s debut album released in this year and it was brilliant. A shame people slept on it to an extent.

I understand the problem they’re trying to solve. I work with children and some are obsessed with social media some to extent it affects their day to day lives. However the same is true for many adults and the poor habits some children have come from the habits of the adults in their lives. Really we should be looking at the content of what is available online rather than gatekeeping social media. More regulations for these companies.

I didn’t think Josh was THAT bad an actor when he joined but the last few performance have been abysmal.

Also remember Diana was only 36 when she died so it’s not like it was expected. It was a huge shock to everyone.

Thinking about it, shouldn’t she have been in it this week sticking the boot into Ian? There was no plan for this character. I think they just wanted a meme machine and it flopped.

Do you think she’ll get a coherent storyline before she goes?

And yet there are some many things that much money still can’t buy.

Times were completely different when Virgin were in charge. Charts were a lot less static, there were more hits to choose from and people actually bought compilations.

Josh is becoming quite unlikeable quite quickly. I wonder if he has a darker side that’s been hidden?

Deserving no.1. Fireflies is a great track. I would have had Bruno and Cee Lo top 5 and maybe Matt Cardle higher but I think this list is generally otherwise accurate to my own thoughts.
