Ben Mitchell

Walford's favorite gay.

by Anonymousreply 107August 25, 2019 10:56 PM

Anyone watching? Callum wants to postpone the wedding for as long as possible. Why am I not surprised 😂 Also, Cathy is worried for Ben after being all bruised while Ian is basically saying it's probably Ben's fault and that he deserved it.

by Anonymousreply 1July 8, 2019 7:10 PM

Whitney finally booked a wedding venue for the 31st and asks Callum why he's not excited 😂 This was after Ben told Callum it was Stuart who beat him up. Then Whitney walked in and asked what happened. Ben said it was a couple of guys. Callum thanks him for not saying anything to Whitney then he said he didn't do it for him because he's not worth the hassle... auch.

Callum should have punched him instead tho lmao. He gave in way too quickly imo. He has no balls whatsoever when it comes to his brother. Fucking hell. Anyways, did anyone watch the episode tonight? What do you think?

Nvm, just read about it. As suspected Stacey was behind it. I'm liking the twist of Ben framing Keanu though. Hopefully that means the useless actor is on his way out. The actor can't act for shit. Keanu has stayed in Walford way too long. His storyline is basically over now anyway, so he might as well leave.

by Anonymousreply 22August 1, 2019 9:17 PM

According to Max we might have to wait a while for any Ballum. He says it's all about Phil atm, ugh. Hopefully the rumor about the Ballum stuff being embargoed is true and he just can't say anything about it. Would suck if we have to wait till Christmas for their affair to begin.

Waiting for Ballum to kick off is giving me blue balls but I think August will definitely push things into high gear with the wedding capping it off. While I appreciate Ben being in the thick of things for other storylines, I feel like his connection with Callum is the key to getting some really good material for and insight into this version of Ben.

OK, I need to rant for a minute: Anyone else annoyed with how this "affair" is turning out? Like, I don't mind a slow burn at all, I usually like slow burns, but this is just ridiculous. How can Kate build up to this huge affair when they don't even share any scenes together? I'm not saying they need to fuck or kiss every time, but I want more conversations between them, I want to see them bond. It's just a whole lot of nothing right now. This ain't cutting it.

So glad our sexy duo opted to skip Bex's exceedingly dull results party just to stay at home and do the dishes .. SHIRTLESS! .. What a treat!

And their scene at the kitchen sink splashing the soapy water at one another was obviously a little salute to the final shot of Omar & Johnny in "My Beautiful Laundrette."

I think Ben said “Your boyfriend’s already given me a mouthful” after the “I smell queer” scene when Callum punched him. The park scene came later.

I assumed that in the park Ben simply sucked Callum’s dick or had a handjob. But after we found our about Chris, maybe they had full sex

Phil has become so evil (threatening to harm or kidnap children, human trafficking) that it's hard to see them walking him back to a likeable character. (Of course anything is possible on EE).
