Eastenders #18 Take me down to Ian Beales chippy, where the sausage is long and the chips are greasy

[BDY_97]

They’re wearing their ‘The Six’ colours for the NTAs! Genius!

This was brilliant. The whole marketing around the storyline has been unbelievable.

I'm wondering if Theo could be the body at Xmas now. He's obviously going to stick around stalking Stacey and will be clever enough not to get arrested. I wonder if he might have photos of her doing secret cam in the sexy undies that he'll use to blackmail her

How stunning are these 3, all of their hair makeup looks amazing!

I predict a Cindy and Nish affair.

I predict a Cindy and Nish affair.

I think there will be affair but everyone she’s ever been with looks so different it’s hard to guess

 

[Whatsallthis]

There will be an affair but only for her to try and scam him I reckon

 

[Scotch Mist]

Cindy is such a user. She wants Ian to set up a new business to impress her daughters so they can show how successful they are. Ian had a heart attack not that long ago and now he will feel the pressure to do this for Cindy. Talk about piling stress on him

I'm also a bit confused about the Beale funds that Peter took off Kathy. The businesses were all in Ian's name and Kathy was running them after he disappeared. So Ian definitely owned the restaurant and the chippy. I'm not sure about the Cafe as that might be Kathy's along with the Albert Kathy then sold the restaurant and was going to sell the chippy. The money that Peter took was surely Ian's in the first place yet Kathy was saying it was her debt now it's confusing

When someone gives birth on Eastenders they never cast a baby that is appropriate for the part. If Lily had given birth legitimately to a baby of that size she would have died of internal bleeding.

When peter told Anna he has little family left..isn't he related to half the Square??

Spoiler: Jack/Theo theory

I think jack will tell Stacey that lily and the baby can't stay with her and try to get them to stay at his

Or her reporting Theo will backfire. Theo will spin some lie about Stacey not being right in the head and the social will be called

That baby was at least 8 weeks old but to be fair my 8 weeker is 11 lbs, not unheard of I guess

I think they are sowing the seeds for Whitney to adopt the baby

I think they are sowing the seeds for Whitney to adopt the baby

I was thinking along these lines.
I feel Lily is going to really struggle to bond and regret her decision. Aunty Whit to the rescue and Lil can back to being a teenager.
I think Stacey and co will be gutted but support her and Jack will get angry.

Yeah it did and it can't be that hard to find new parents on a maternity ward somewhere that wants their day old kid to be on TV.

Charli XYZ is already taller than Vinnie Panesar

Hope not. I'd rather Whitney just left already

fully agree with this.

they’re absolutely planting the seeds of her struggling - the “i don’t know what to do with her now” and the look she gave when ricky was holding the baby. there already seems to be some potential conflict with ricky seemingly already attached too.

HAHAHAHAHA This needs to be the next thread title

I wonder if Stacey will continue to be all “it’s her decision to make, I trust my daughter” the way she was about the pregnancy if it involves giving the baby up.

 

[lozza96]

I think it's Ryan that will have the baby as they wanted it originally I also think that's maybe where theo has got his information from

 

[S4buk]

Hmmm I think Lily will definitely give the baby up, either to Ryan or Whitney (which will be her exit storyline).

 

[Scotch Mist]

I think it would be a better plan to let Whitney adopt the baby. The Slaters can't afford the child and realistically Stacey wouldn't be able to work full time if she became the primary carer.

The actress playing Lily is doing a great job, she's just a child herself that didn't realise how much work a baby would be.

Let Whitless have the baby and leave!
