Photo spoilers: Max brings Tanya up to date!
About time!
Tanya's confused when Max gives her a calendar. Not the most romantic of gifts? In fact, it's Max's way of telling Tanya he's set a date for the wedding - hurrah!
A sign of things to come...
A desperate Syed reverts back to his old ways.ÌýHe can't cope with his most recentÌýmoney problemsÌýand resorts to forging a chequeÌýin Tam's name. Uh oh.
Ìý
Businesses plus baby...
Ìý
... equals nightmare for Michael. And having Billy asÌýhis right hand man probably doesn't help? Is Michael going to be able to cope without Janine?
Wrong time, right place
Lola is pleased when Jay pops over see her and Lexi. But she's less pleased when her social worker turns up unannounced. WillÌýthey be able to put the social worker at ease?
Back at the helm
No you're not having flashbacks, Phil really is back behind the bar! He takes Sharon's advice and returns 'home' to The Vic...

They could be new Tanya and Jane! :) Seriously, they both have been through so much, they have quite a few things in common, they both need a friend, so they shouldn't be fighting, they should be mates. But I have always said there is no way they are sisters.

Anyway, Monalisa, I have always said that Phil does care about Shirley but he keeps making horribly wrong choices such us drugs and covering up for Ben after Hev's murder, he is just that kind of person. BTW, what I don't understand is how come Peggy used to be so controlling and interfering towards her family, and now she just isappeared from their lives completely. She doesn't even know that her adored grandson is in prison for murder! I do like Barbara W., but the writers should have killed Peggy off, she is not coming back.

Peggy was a bad mother, didn't teach her children what's "right" and what's "wrong" but Phil suffers too for what he does. He lost his daughter. And Ben ... Phil is homophobic, so he was devastated to find out that his son is gay, and then to find out that he is a psycho and a murderer too. AND Ben was trying to send Phil to prison! And I don't think when Phil was taking drugs he was enjoying life too much! He was doing it to pass out and to forget that his life is rubbish. As for Shirley, no one have been forcing her to stay with Phil and suffer. Her problem is that she is a middle aged woman who never matured. She needs drama. And gets it.

the spoilers make it sound like he is struggling to cope.

On the other hand, it has to be Max. Because he was the one who was hurt in the fight at the Vic, so was he the guy who Kat was helping? Also, it can't be Jack as Jack doesn't need to rent a flat to see Kat, he has enough women to come and see him at his place. And we only saw a shadow of Kat's lover, and this shadow didn't look like it was Derek's shadow. Another Slater woman for Max or what?

derek is controlling kat and thats why she's confused. he is very like how harry was (hence his mention tonight ) and she's always said she uses sex and is confused with love.
i think the shadow was always played by an extra.

According to all the spoilers, Max and Tanya are about to fall out with each other big time - again, and what would be the reason? Max has been a bit weird lately. What was the envelope (with the money?) that he dropped in a post box? Was it rent money for his love nest for another month? And it seems to be his habit to rent a flat for his mistress when he is having an affair. And Tanya did complain that he has been a bit distant.

Also, spoilers are out that Tanya and Max's wedding isn't all she would hope for. Shane Ritchie revealed that we'll find out who the man is around Christmas and the wedding is just before Christmas. Jake (whatever, Max) said that it will be a Branning Christmas so there will be a big storyline there.
This story has gone on for too long though and it's becoming boring. In the last year or so stories on Eastenders have gone on too long, Ben waiting to be caught for Hev's murder, the baby kidnap one too.
Just do a story and move on, the suspense isn't good it's painful to watch and leaves me yawning. Just get the Kat affair story over and done with and get Dot back.

You do make me laugh. I think it's between Max and Derek now. Look at how Kat ran to look out of the window to see the Branning brothers leave the pub. It's obvious now that one of them is her lover and she wanted to see his reaction to her phone call.

*BELCH*. That's what I think of you, EastEnders XD
No interesting story-lines have happened this year, except very short or ones with disappointing/annoying endings. Some of the acting has gone downhill, too. Even Shane Richie (Alfie)'s acting on Friday was unimpressive, and I found it harder this year than in any other year to suspend my disbelief.
I think I need the Ö÷²¥´óÐã to start broadcasting a new drama with uplifting story-lines.
Like a vets version of Casualty/ Holby City. That would be interesting to see ^_^
ANYWAY.
Did you know mushy peas taste great with ketchup?
