Re awareness storylines it's great that soaps run these stories but they always screw them up i know they only have a short time frame but its never realistic Betsy seems to have come on leaps and bounds in a fortnight Toyah was having sex with nick the day she came home from a hysterectomy Carla had a kidney transplant and necks red wine like its going out of fashion
Im so glad they are running the male breast cancer story but it will be the same, kit will have surgery and chemo and out the other side in a couple of weeks when in reality it's a relentless round of tests and scans and appointments and weeks of waiting before you even get a surgery date if that doesn't get cancelled last minute then endless appointments and weeks of treatment after
Does Bethany still have a stoma? (I'm quite ignorant about this and not sure if they are permanent).

The other things soaps always bugger up is teen pregnancy. Always catastrophic and life changing - but then the baby seems to make no change to the young mum's life. Always care and babysitters on hand.

Said it before, but I think they actually did a good job with Sarah. Bethany was on screen loads as a kid. I think it’s probably harder now with stricter child labour laws, and it shows more to viewers because the number of episodes has increased so much.

I actually like him too!
Me too, I don’t think he’s sleazy as someones said, think he’s just a guy getting what he can- realistic as far as my experience with men go 😂 They’ve ruined his character, he was this brooding bloke who was bothered about his career- but who also ran with his own moral code, like not grassing Sarah up about Nathan’s DNA, or going on his own little side assignments - like smashing David’s car windscreen. He was a bit complicated but mysterious, they’ve chucked a family at him, then bogged him down with kids- one of whom he’s slept with(?!). He’s turned into a big sap. Love his relationship with Swain, he’s one of the reasons I tolerate her. He’s already had a who’s the daddy storyline with Daisy, didn’t it get mentioned when Shona was due as well? And he’s recently found out Brody’s his- is he taking over Steve with all the random kids??

I would say yes and I do know know something about them on a personal level but it is never mentioned now. She supposedly had irreversible damage to her bowel after her lipo in Turkey. (not me!!)

That episode last night with Kit felt rushed. His diagnosis was far too quick from finding out about the BCRA gene. Surely they could have dragged that storyline out a few months or so to seem more realistic? Then shoe horning him sleeping with Bethany, but we didn’t actually see how it happened. Just seems really shoddy and I haven’t got much interest for either storyline because of the way they’ve done it.

She said she was going to go as a cleaner on a Cruise Ship then was abducted by Ross and nothing heard since.
Claire S has gone on tour with the Annie production so she could turn up at some point.

But Fiz was concerned about what had become of her, especially as she was seen in wig man’s car.
all seems to have gone quiet there too.

Kit and Carla should compare notes on sleeping with multiple members of the same family.

Kit - Shona, Sarah and Bethany
Carla - Peter, Daniel & Adam

Not to mention she slept with Liam who was her brother in law!
Liam being her BIL isn’t the weirdest part. Him and husband Paul are her cousins (obviously she didn’t know that at the time)

That’s made me think. Didn’t Johnny know all along he was Carla’s dad but kept it a secret her whole life? You’d think he would have warned Paul about marrying her
