Photo spoilers: Rolling with the punches...
Fist first
Joey just can't help himself. When he spies Lucy getting some unwanted attention he runs to her aid and gives the guy a taste of his fist! Does he not know that there's a boxing gym around the corner?
Like father, like son
Joey arrives for a family lunch with Derek and Alice, but he brings along all of his new WalfordÌýmates too. His plan to push his dad to breaking point clearly works!ÌýWhat will Alice think of Derek's angrier side?
Turning point?
Ìý
Kat uses her womanly charms to roundÌýupÌýThe Square's men to join The Vic's football team. She takesÌýflirting to a whole new level, but how far will she actually go?!
Do they fit like a glove?
WhatÌýsays romance more than running a burger van together? As they clean up the equipment, Phil's all smiles because Shirley's back to her old self. But how long will that last?
What's in a name?
Michael comes back from the registry officeÌýand casually tells Janine thatÌýtheir baby'sÌýno longer called Patricia! Err, really Michael, really? He's decided to call her Scarlett Patricia Moon, will Janine like the name change?
Crossed wires
Oh dear. Kat has a secret liaison, and is guilt-ridden the morning after. And so she should be! Poor Alfie thinks he's done something wrong and tries to talk to her. How much will she tell him?

I really hope Janine's baby is ok and Michael doesn't take advantage of her. And I also hope Shirley finds out about Ben soon because it's about time it was revealed to her now.

I really love Eastenders but some of the characters just aren't pulling their weight and have little continuity you could really do a bit better. Thank you.

I wonder was it Derek or Jay who poured the fat all over the car and car lot's office? Derek will continue to be nasty to Lucy, only will do try do it quietly to avoid problems with Alice, and Jay is angry with Max because he believes Max took Abi away from him and keeps telling him that Abi is out of his league.

Most of the characters in the square seems to have been introduced to the programme this way -its ridiculous-and does anyone actually work? It doesnt matter what time of the day it is people are walking around the square, in the cafe or the pub or at home,anywhere but work

At 28th Jun 2012, Bigsmile76 wrote:Redfox, I agree that a lot of characters in EE have too many long lost relatives who appear out of nowhere,then disappear without a trace and never mentioned again. For example, we know where Carol is, but where two other Branning sisters are? Neither Max nor Jack or Derek ever say a word about them. Etc, etc, etc. Almost every character in EE does have job (if you make a list of characters you will be able to say what each of them do) however I do agree that you can rarely see them do what they are supposed to do. But just watching them work would be boring, right? Also, according to EE, there are like 4 or 5 employers in London (Phil, Ian, the owner of the laundry, Tanya and now Janine), and there are no jobs at all outside Albert Square.

Yes tell me about it re: jobs! Alice is a receptionist in a recruitement agency, which is NOT in Albert square! Yet recently it seems that she has gone into work at all. I know it would be boring to see them at work but EE could do it so that people arrange to meet after work/lunch time, just change the time of day.
Yes, all these long lost relatives. Where was Masood's brother when Syed got married? They only brought the other brother then.

And she supposedly doesn't like female strippers - for stag nights etc, but the way she was acting it's as if she just wants to give it to all the men, especially telling Jack that she might give a rub down - ew!
Whitney - "phowar I would... if I wasn't with Tyler" HUH! Remember how she was paranoid by seeing Tyler's ex's phone numbers still in his phone (it's not that he was contacting them, he just hadn't bothered deleting their numbers) and Tyler said to Bianca that Whit hated him just looking at other girls? She's being hypocritical!

And we know she actually would cheat on him with one of them (when Whit realized that she would cheat on Fatboy with Tyler, she told him so and left). And remember how she hated Roxy living in the Vic - she was like a dog guarding her food bowl. See, Alfie IS stupid! Very.

Eastenders needs a big big shakeup, bring in some believable characters and some realistic story lines that reach a conclusion not 4 months down the linel. I know it is a soap but come on, it is so predictable, should be a game show called Guess the next twist in Eastenders. the entire viewing audience of eastenders could win it.

Anyone who really wants to stop cheating doesn't meet the person to tell him to walk away - she could have text him back or just ignored the text. EE writing has gone BAD. Please EE get Alfie to kick Kat to the curb

But he just stopped being exciting for her at some point and she looks for excitement elsewhere. So I too think Alfie should set himself free from that woman.
