Re: Eastenders
Bullying? Fantastic
But that's KO's MO, no couple can exist without violence or abuse.

Re: Eastenders
I hate that it’s being framed this way. Is what Suki’s doing wrong? Sure. But is it bullying? I don’t think so. She’s just being an inflexible boss because she couldn’t stand being rejected. I don’t know where they’re going with this. I like their scenes, so I’m just hoping they can at least get back on good terms as friends.Guest wrote: ↑21 Sep 2021, 05:46Bullying? Fantastic

Re: Eastenders
Welp. Lol, right.
Re: Eastenders
The dreams over. The only positive to come out of this is Suki being queer.

x2 The first article up there is definitely interesting but I think there's just because the Honey actress is a nice person, it does look like this is going to be a full mess.Guest wrote: ↑22 Sep 2021, 21:28whole thing sounds ridiculous anyways suki's a babe
I just hate that one Honey/Jay shipper being vindicated, who was like, no, this will never be a real thing.
Re: Eastenders
Is there an actual wlw couple in British soaps right now? It feels like it's a particularly bad time? And stories like these don't help, why can't they write something good for wlw couples too?
Re: Eastenders
I guess she’s gonna cry when Honey and Jay breakup bc I still think that’s gonna happen.Guest wrote: ↑24 Sep 2021, 14:20x2 The first article up there is definitely interesting but I think there's just because the Honey actress is a nice person, it does look like this is going to be a full mess.Guest wrote: ↑22 Sep 2021, 21:28whole thing sounds ridiculous anyways suki's a babe

They're both newer characters that don't have much of a connection to the canvas. The writers also don't seem to care about them much. Their last storyline was saving Mila's younger sister from FGM (it happened to M when she was younger).
Juliet/Peri on Hollyoaks are the only other wlw UK soap couple ATM.
Re: Eastenders
EastEnders had the Vic & the area around it decorated for Pride earlier this month. On the 2nd episode of this they had one Ben/Callum scene, but that's it. None of their other LGBT characters were even on those episodes. It honestly seemed like the only reason they did this was for other characters to have Tina at the forefront of their mind to further that story (they think she's on the run, but really she was murdered).
Re: Eastenders
I’m very interested in seeing how Ash and Suki discuss this in light of Suki’s previous homophobia toward her. Would love to see them bond and sort of start to patch things up. That’s all I want at this point.

I think her & Frankie would make a cute couple, anyone else?
Re: Eastenders
Anyone have any thoughts on this week’s scenes? Seems like they’re hinting at Suki being a closet lesbian.
I know some people were mad about Honey telling Jay about the kiss but idk he was gonna have to find out somehow. Honey was not coping well.

Re: Eastenders
Wasn’t there a rumour a little while ago that they were going to get Stacey a gf?
Re: Eastenders
I have no idea. All we know is that Stacey is married and there’s heavy speculation about Eve being the person she’s married to. It’s probably a sham marriage though.
Re: Eastenders
"
Suki's already been involved with the Slater's because she's their landlord & refused to fix their water heater/boiler. It'll be interesting if they mix her up with these two, I honestly didn't see any of this coming.

There hasn't been a decent lesbian couple on British soaps since Rana and Kate.
Re: Eastenders
I dont get why any self respecting Lesbian would bother to watch Eastenders. They always write terrible lesbian storylines such as having lesbians have sex with men, now we have bunny boiler suki and now some probably sham lesbian marriage. I've given up on EE long ago.

Re: Eastenders
Heather Peace's character will most likely get with Suki and this thing with Stacey is just a sham.
Re: Eastenders
I liked them but they were never happy it's probably one of the most depressing wlw storylines I've ever watched. The characters had chemistry but the GA never grew to like them because it was just drama after drama. The actress playing Kate was also never really valued, it was Rana's story with Kate playing a smaller role. This is OT though, maybe EE will finally get this right since they aired a gay actress?Guest wrote: ↑29 Oct 2021, 08:01Rana and Kate were misery porn with a bury your gays ending and an actress so detached from reality that asked for her character to be killed off in a super tragic ending.Guest wrote: ↑28 Oct 2021, 15:51What in the frilly hell is this plot?

Re: Eastenders
Not a chance that this is a proper marriage between Stacey and Eve. It’ll be a sham marriage for some reason. I don’t recall Stacey showing the slightest interest in women at all. Several husbands and a handful of children and she’s barely 30 lol.

Hope this is not tooooooo off-topic, but since it is Halloweeny time....... has anyone here ever done the "Bloody Mary" mirror ritual as a kid? and if so, did anything scary happen to you during or afterwards??
Re: Eastenders
I agree that the marriage is probably a sham…but how is this still being used as justification against the prospect of a w|w story? These soaps barely ever write in any kind of same sex interest unless the character is quite literally about to come out or be outed.Dragonfish wrote: ↑29 Oct 2021, 08:52Not a chance that this is a proper marriage between Stacey and Eve.

Re: Eastenders
That’s beside the point. I’m not saying you can’t be against the storyline. I’m saying using that particular reason as justification for why a storyline isn’t going to happen doesn’t really make much sense because same sex interest is not something soap writers typically showcase long term as a precursor.Dragonfish wrote: ↑29 Oct 2021, 09:23Because it’s not believable?Guest wrote: ↑29 Oct 2021, 09:19I agree that the marriage is probably a sham…but how is this still being used as justification against the prospect of a w|w story?

Look at Robron and Ballum and Kana. Out of the popular same sex couples recently only Vanity had some history of same sex interest for both characters.
Stacey being straight until now doesn't matter, if they want to go for it they will

Re: Eastenders
I’m not against the storyline, just think it’s daft if they’re going down the route that out of nowhere Stacey suddenly has a thing for women, or one woman. It doesn’t fit her character. And just to point out to the anon above that mentioned Callum; he did have a history with men the reason his nickname was “Halfway” was because he was bisexual.Guest wrote: ↑29 Oct 2021, 10:00That’s beside the point.
