Eastenders #8 Ravi rides in and Ben's in the bin

[Brigitjonesbuttcheek]

I assumed she just wanted revenge against everyone at the robbery. Joint enterprise I think it's called legally

 

[Livid2020]

Billy must have done something to a member of her family?

Love how Sharon always has makeup you'd wear for a night out or a party in every scene

Lmao same - she’s a right glamorous cow
Kats makeup looked really lovely!

He bought Shona Mcgarty something and she looked really really uncomfortable, made me cringe really hard.

Omg I saw this, poor girl & she prob felt she had to be polite cause it was going on tiktok. Creepy.

Does he just hang around Elstree all day or what?

Did Dot ever buy the house from the council? I remember there was trouble a few years back as she had too many people living with her but I can’t remember what the solution was.
If it’s still council owned can they evict Sonia & take the house back?

I’m sure she bought it when she inherited that money from Dr Leg.

Spoiler: Stuart (ending of 25/08/2022 ep)

I have a soft spot for him so I am glad he got a little happy ending with Rainie and Roland. I did laugh at them driving away in the nicked hearse.

Aw, that sounds super cute

The new set is next door. It's still on the Elstree Studios site, the BBC selling the whole Elstree Studios site. It's where they film Strictly as well.

Think it's a mistake to sell it though given how in demand production and filming stages are at the moment. The big American streamers Netflix/Disney/Paramount have hoovered up Shepperton and Pinewood etc. So no capacity for anything else.

The BBC are selling it so they can lease it off the purchasers

Can’t wait for Kheerat to find out you know
Him and Ravi beefing will be a good ruckus

 

[Ellegee]

With Dot passing soon- I wonder if Dotty will inherit the house and kick Sonia out

Wonder did Janine have the abortion and is just pretending to be pregnant now

I hadn’t thought of that but it’s a very Janine thing to do

 

[Lord Voldemort]

Sure I read the other day he'd joined Casualty/Holby City (whichever one hasn't been cancelled)
He was my first major crush and (this is embarrassing) I once sent a mix tape of some 'love songs' to his fan mail address!!

Forgot to add, nowadays it's all about Kheerat for me (Ravi close second) but they needn't worry about receiving any cassettes from me

This made me giggle
Kheerat is beautiful.
Also I'm a massive casualty fan so will look forward to Nigel joining!

 

[Sandyclaws]

I’m intrigued as to how long she’s known this and not done anything until now…. What about the other security guard, do we reckon he told the truth? Did anyone think Keebles mum looked like Honey? X

I definitely thought her mum looked like Honey. As for why now? Because the writers needed a story

 

[gigilouxx]

Watching some episodes from last year just now and I can’t believe how many people have gone and how shit the summer storylines have been.

 

[Ells321]

Oh great she’s pregnant. I do believe Kat and Alfie will get back together though.

 

[Hope96]

she absolutely was!

though THAT clip of her peering through the blinds makes me laugh whenever i see it. it is just as iconic as “sitting around, doing nish” imo

I love how she still managed to look good whilst destroying everything and being kicked out by Jack.

 

[Beverley Macker]

Could Keeble be Jamie’s mum? Has she shown any interest in Sonia?

 

[GrilledCheese]

Unless he didn't die immediately and told someone

I don't think he will get Billy, I don't think he will "leave family behind". Especially when Billy was probably the least involved or interested in harming someone (at that time)

If he didn't die immediately, then he would've heard Billy's name when they were helping him up

 

[champagnepinkk]

How do you even see these? I'm not sure if I want to LOL but curious to know as to where they are?

Oh god …. But Google

 

[One and only]

I know they did that story years ago of who was Bobby’s father. Does anyone else think this Bobby looks a lot like Gary?

 

[StephenTJackson]

The BBC are selling it so they can lease it off the purchasers

Yeah, still a mistake because the BBC should be subletting it out to other companies, not the BBC selling it and then paying to use it again. They can only sell it once, and £70m rumoured price is not going to go far in the BBC's budget. Hell they spent more than that building the new EastEnders set alone.

Sale and leaseback is a disease of private equity, and shouldn't be forced into the public broadcaster that isn't being suitably funded.

 

[Hope96]

I think I am coming down with something because I felt quite bad for Ben whilst watching Thursday's episode. 🥲 Hopefully next week will be business as usual @ disliking Ben.
