Megathread of Eastenders

The main story tonight was Ian finding Phil having a heart attack after Phil's secret meetup with Glenda and subsequently finding out about their affair. Ian was being a massive douche by not calling an ambulance (though one came and Ian turned them away) and Phil was basically dying. Ben came home after getting beaten up and really opened up to Shirley but Ian overheard their conversation after leaving Phil alone to die but had a change of heart and took Phil to hospital in the end.

They touched on the Christian/Syed/Roxy surrogate mother thing and the Janine/Ryan/Whitney relationship. And Heather was being disgusting and ill as per usual.

Damn, sounded like a great episode.

Cheers.

Lol, I can't, can't play media, no sound, mega slow etc. Virus.

Hai guise

Basically I can't watch EE because of major computer problems. Could someone give me brief bullet points on what happened yesterday and today, cheers.

Ian is such a rat. I don't know if it's just me, but this episode kinda flopped. In theory it should have been brilliant but it was a bit..meh :/ It didn't make me think

I agree with you on the main points of your post but why do people always think Syed's spineless? Because I know if I was forced to choose between my family and the person I love, I wouldn't know where to begin to choose either. People say Syed kept flip flopping but to be fair to him, he told Christian all along he was going to marry Amira, it's only towards the end of his marriage that he promised Christian he'd tell his parents and then he didn't and Christian (rightly) got annoyed and pulled down the wallpaper and started the reveal.

Syed was a bit 'Dont come near me' and then 'I don't want to not have you in my life' which was confusing but he never SAID he'd do anything other than be with Amira despite knowing he was gay and loves Christian. The only reason Syed married Amira was because he didn't want to cause his PARENTS shame, I don't think sacrificing your personal happiness for your family is spineless, I think it's entirely misguided especially when your parents dont care about your happiness and are hypocritical like Zainab and Masood but people seem to forget Syed always tried to do the 'right' thing. It's just doing the right thing is rather difficult when you're being pulled in all directions. I wouldn't want to be in Syed's situation a year ago. But yeah, Syed= not spineless. Unless I'm the only one who remembers him shouting at his dad over the hotel situation with Jane...
I understand why he didn't tell Christian, he always tries to please other people and he wants Christian to be happy so he's not saying anything- wrong in my book.
Aw well, at least tomorrow

Sorry for the essay! I tend to get a bit defensive of fictional Syed!

Is it just me who thinks the most interesting thing would be for Phil to be reformed for a while - at least a week lol - and see him try to change into a different person. Nice, happy, unrecognisable from what he was. Then ages after, something goes wrong and comes back to haunt him. Welcome back, Phil Mitchell.

I've never really understood Darren. He's supposed to be 20 but he's more like 30 or 40. Why would he want to go and celebrate his birthday with a man, and just this one man, who could be his dad? Does he have no friends of his own age that he has to celebrate with his employer?

And his accent annoys me so much too.

I think Phil would have done the same to Ian

No I would not. Watch your mouth.

Tommy/James is so fat
