EastEnders confirms June return date for Ash Panesar

Her comeback will be airing very soon.

Does the show really need such a boring character and useless actress back? Sorry for asking a stupid question of course it doesn't. I haven't read or heard from one person who's missed her. Why did she have ages off anyway? Usually it's to do Strictly or give birth.

Unless it’s a storyline where Suki comes out, I don’t care. Or have the writers forgotten about that?

I’m a soaps expert and EastEnders has made a big mistake with Ben Mitchell’s rape storyline

I HAVE been reporting on and working with soaps like EastEnders for years – and I don’t criticise them lightly. Hundreds of talented people work flat out behind the scenes to make them the be…

I agree with every word. The whole writing has been a let down.

That person criticises Rick Gervais so they can duck off with their little agenda there. Yes gay relationships are generally doomed in Walford but the straight people don't fare any better do they? Everyone is bloody miserable.🙄

I don't like the story because Ben is the victim and it's hard to feel sympathy for the character.

It really has! Hopefully his ‘journey’ will encourage victims of sexual assault to come forward but it could have been done so much better.

great and very accurate article (thank you for sharing it!) - the writing has been shockingly bad for ages.

edit: i also think that max bowden has been actively bad this week, to comment on that article’s mention of how great an actor he is. he is sometimes, but he also always falls back on a dead eyed stare for ben which has been out in full force the last few episodes.

i think this weird thing that gay people must always been shown as happy (like that article is trying to imply) for representation is just patronising tbh, let alone for a gay couple in eastenders.

i hate the storyline, it has already been badly done and seems an immediate waste of lewis (who is a decent enough actor and could have been a good addition). but the writing all around is just godawful atm.

Yes I agree because I rather liked Lewis before the rape scene.
