Delusion is a nice way of putting it. I'd have just called them racist c**ts

I'm guessing that Sam was meant to leave a couple of months ago, then she suddenly decided to stay (presumably coinciding with Ross Kemp signing up for a stint as Grant). Would explain the random Sam scenes dropped into episodes too the last 6 weeks or so.

Blood cancer storyline confirmed for Denise

I voted… and outside the polling station was someone from Reform and someone from the Lib Dem’s. I was basically torn between Green and Lib Dem. In the end I went Lib Dem as in Chelmsford it’s probably more likely to stop Reform.

Same for the allegations/ paying off in the early 90's - had they happened now or the dangling of a baby from a 4th floor balcony too.

Thing is weather they were brushed over or cut out, it still amounts to the same thing. Its overlooking a massive part of his life. But then it does feel wrong (to me anyway) that someone like Jackson is still being celebrated given all the things he has done - even as far as going to paying victims. I could probably say more... but the posts would probably get removed 🤣 So i'll step back to keeping a gobsmacked silence

Good to see Temper City in the top 40... although shame Bebe has dropped out - although I think that is now destined not to hit the top 40

I Said Never Again?

Oh that's crazy! Was sure Northern Star had hit the top spot - didn't realise It stalled at 4. I guess NBTSA and ITTY were so big, I just assumed she already had a number 2 album
