Well, they film 6-8 weeks in advance, so unless they planned the whole thing (including all the fuss and and the apparent backdown on behalf of the BBC), the earliest they could end it would be middle of February/beginning of March.

Re: Eastenders
 

Blimey the little babe will be nearly walking by that time. :D

Re: Eastenders
 

When oh when is Ronnie going to confess she has Kat's baby? I love a happy ending and would love Kat and Alfie to be reunited and learn that their baby was still alive. A tearjerker awaits!!! ;)

Re: Eastenders
 

i want Kat and anfie to be together again

Re: Eastenders
 

Finally Ronnie has come to her senses and returned Tommy to Kat and Alfie, expect the next thing will be DNA tests! Feel sorry for Jack though. Also what the heck is going on with Max and newly married Tanya? Can't these people make up their minds? It's getting on my twits! Roll on tonight's episode. :D

Re: Eastenders
 

Tinky im with you! i don't know whether im coming or going, i had to buy the tv mag just to keep track of everything!.

Great that Kat and Alfie have they're baby back, but i feel so sorry for Ronnie, the heart ache and pain shes gone through all her life...

I know its not real but still haha.

Re: Eastenders
 

I suspect they are going into another mental health storyline. Based on the way the last scene with Ronnie ended with her on the floor apparently cradling Danielle, and the Doctor (Psychiatrist, I presume) asking if she had a responsible adult that could be there. I don't know, but that sounds to me like they are planning to section Ronnie.

Re: Eastenders
 

I think she has been losing it for some time now Stu, she's been like a dream walking. It's quite remarkable how these actors are able to turn on the waterworks at will. Wonder how they do it, praps think of summit sad, I guess.:rolleyes:

I also would have preferred a different ending to this storyline about how Kat and Alfie get the baby back. For example if baby Tommy had developed a slight medical problem that required a blood sample to be taken, and then Jack was told he wasn't the father. This whole storyline has been quite unbelievable, but not quite as bad as the one where Tanya tried to kill Max and tried to bury him in the woods.:rolleyes: :D:D:D Wonder what far fetched story they will come up with next lol.:D

Re: Eastenders
 

Oh, she has, but people rarely just become mentally ill. It happens over months, or sometimes years. This is something Eastenders has covered before. Remember Joe (Jaw) Wicks? He was becoming increasingly eccentric for about 18 months before the character was diagnosed. Even Stacy was showing signs months before.

As for actors turning on the waterworks, well some can do it easily. Most, from what I have heard, just go back to a really sad event in their life and think about it. Same with other emotions.

I remember Micheal Dorn (played Worf in various Star Treks) said it was the best part ever because he could get himself in a really bad mood, and just go to work and everyone would assume he is just staying in character.

Personally, I think this story probably looked good on paper. I don't know how believable I found it though. I didn't particularly like the Max/Tanya burial story though.

One think I think Brian Kirkwood has done well with EE though. He seems to have ensured that the writers flesh out the characters a lot better with stories (or histories) that in some cases give good reasons for them to act the way they do. Janine, for instance. In the past, she has just seemed like the sort of randomly evil person you don't generally get outside TV. At christmas, she had good reason to behave how she did, and her grandmother is a good indication of where it came from.

Re: Eastenders
 

How evil is that Yusif? I just want to slap him when he smilies.

Re: Eastenders
 

I really hope every 1 sees him for what he is EVIL

Re: Eastenders
 

He will get his comeuppance. Wonder when or what that will be.

We need some good storylines in this show. Gone downhill for quite a while now.

Re: Eastenders
 

Why are the characters on Eastenders so contrary, one minute they can't stand each other the next they can't keep their hands off each other? As in the case of Max and Tanya, she even went to the extent of trying to bury him alive. Then what about Zainab and Yusef ? They should get a room. Sometimes the storylines are just not credible, even I could come up with better plots.
