The old one is getting full, so here’s a nice shiny new one.

Where is Lauren? What is Dee Dee’s chap up to? Is Kit a villainous baddie or a force for good? Do we care?

Post your predictions and observations here (no spoilers please).

Missed some bits so can somebody please explain how they managed to raise the money to get Bethany home. Thanks

That was the plan, Calendargirl. They even filmed some of the storyline, but something happened and the actor left or was fired.

It should have been Martin!!!!

Yes, Martin should have come back to see Bethany, he and Gail should have made up and rode off into the sunset together.

Aveline

Her character has changed too. She's so snide and nasty.

I agree, she just has a snarling expression now, and is not at all pleasant. I hope long suffering George dumps her.

Doodledog Wed 09-Oct-24 21:26:10

That sounds like a fever dream😂

Aveline Wed 09-Oct-24 21:23:36

They had a double act in cowboy costume. Children's party entertainers.

Doodledog Wed 09-Oct-24 21:20:28

Eileen and Gail never got on though.

I'm struggling to remember a clown boyfriend grin

Eileen's weight loss doesn't suit her. Has something happened to her face? Suddenly it's all up at one side?

I was wondering that. Bell's Palsy?

It should have been Martin!!!!
I'd love to know what happened there. #nosy

Did they? Oh well, that's an option for Bethany.

Aveline Wed 09-Oct-24 17:17:35

Holby had a long running stoma story.

Calendargirl I agree with you re Carla and men. I cannot see that relationship going far.

In real life Bethany is pregnant, I wonder if she will leave the cobbles permanently or like Fiz will return in a few months after perhaps transfer for surgery and long-term treatment.

I suppose they have to hold her job open in the usual way, and she'll decide later. I thought she might be another representative of disability if she keeps the stoma. The writers can be quite good at highlighting difficulties that different groups have, but broadcastable stoma-related storylines aren't springing to mind.

Aveline Wed 09-Oct-24 14:04:28

Quite enough drama going on as it is.

Calendargirl Wed 09-Oct-24 13:24:57

I suppose not Doodledog but I still think they are scraping the barrel with some of the storylines.

I must be the exception who thinks that a relationship between Carla and Lisa is not on really. We have lost count of all C’s past relationships, was going to list them but honestly cannot remember them all.

I just don’t think she will suddenly go off men.

Having a relationship with a woman doesn't equate to having gone off men though. People aren't necessarily 'one way or the other' sexuality-wise.

I have been away and only just caught up with last week’s episodes.

Considering Paul was so popular, there was very few people in the church for the funeral and not that many at the rave. The different heights of the coffin bearers looked ridiculous, tall Kit and tiny Summer and David.

They did well to get the ashes back so quickly, round us it seems to take a few days for them to be returned,

Grannynannywanny Wed 09-Oct-24 09:11:44

I agree Kit is a very unlikeable character and probably has a dodgy back story yet to be revealed.

When Paul’s urn was sitting on the speaker at the cringey rave I was sure the vibration was going to knock it off and scatter his ashes across the cobbles.

Sarnia Wed 09-Oct-24 09:03:01

Doodledog

Thanks, Sarnia, but they were rhetorical questions, really grin.

I meant where does Kit fit into the criminal underworld that has pervaded the cobbles lately. Is he a friend of Damon, or is he colluding with the awful Nathan in a grooming ring? I don't think he's a straightforward rozzer, is he?

I agree with you about Kit. A detective he may be on the surface but he has his fingers in a lot of shady pies. I think he is involved with the grooming gang but not sure if he knows too much about Damon. He is a very unpleasant character as we saw when he bullied Beth from the cobbles. I think Daniel is suspicious of him but he has most people fooled.

I was thinking that if there was any way that Carla and Lisa could have a child which biologically was both of theirs, that child would have absolutely stunning cheekbones! (Yes I know ... I know.)

Nope, pretty sure he is a 'baddie' grin
