eastenders - bizarre and shit

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Oooh, emotional music. Tell us what to feel Mr Composer, yes tell us.

Just watched it. What were the streets so empty? Why was the market empty? Why hadn't Billy found a clean t-shirt? Why did Phil have open burn marks on his bonce? Will they have healed/miraculously disappeared by the next episode?

Not having watched (!) Eastenders for about five years, but having tuned in for the last two nights, I'm compelled to ask a few questions...

What happened to the good-looking reddish-haired violent twat - possibly Stacey's brother?
Did they kill Charlie off. If so, how?
Who are all the blonde Mitchells supposed to be?
What became of Beale's wife / kids / business empire?
Where's Grant? Why's Phil on crack?

I have to make sure I don't become re-engrossed. I watched the Lassiters fire after a ten year absense from Neighbours and got sucked back in for a year or so.

Sean Slater kidnapped Roxy and Amy and drove to a frozen lake. The car sunk but he helped Roxy and Amy out. He's believed to have drowned but he actually didn't because you see him crawl out, and that's the last you see of him.

Charlies Slater is still there although not seen much. I believe he one of the characters getting the axe. He's going to be done for something but I don't believe in posting up spoilers.

Ronnie and Roxy are Phil and Grunt's cousins.

Ian's wife is going to screw him for loads of dosh as his daughter went and aborted the baby she'd said she'd give to her as she's unable to have a baby after being shot by Ian's.... er, can't remember.... step brother or something

Grunt moved to South America but is now in Portugal I think.

Phil's on crack after going back on the booze after things started going wrong for him. He bumped into Tanya's drug addict sister one night, she gave him drugs and hey ho... here we go

[Minnie_the_Minx]

and Eastenders???

According to Wiki

The series was screened in Australia by ABC TV from 1987 until 1991.[70] Currently the series is seen in Australia only on pay-TV channel UK.TV, where it is 3 months behind the UK. In New Zealand, it was shown by TVNZ on TV One for several years, and then on Prime each weekday afternoon. Episodes are currently ten months behind the UK.

Do you have a channel called UKTV?

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

i'm sure it is

i preferred it more than Coro St damn it

Coro Street? Is that what you lot over there call it?

 

[Vodka]

Coro Street? Is that what you lot over there call it?

what's wrong with 'Coro St'

'Corrie' is a female name init???

and no, we don't have the UKTV channel but if we did, i don't watch enough TV to justify paying for it

Nothing's wrong with Coro. Just never heard it before. Figured it must be what the Kiwis call it. Corrie is not really a name you'd hear over hear much except in relation to Coronation Street.

 

[ymu]

It's Corrie ffs!

Back to 'Enders - just saw the fire episode. That was hilariously bad! Apart from Dot, who was ace, obv.

 

[Vodka]

'cuse my ignorance but what's ffs???

 

[magneze]
