I wrote this in the other thread, but seems like we're using this, so here goes... Duncan was full on wrong. He said Ben was acting out because of Callum. He didn't mention Paul, yet in tonight's episode Ben confided in Lola that it's three years since Paul's death.

Is that him? Is that my man? Is that the man who I loved for all those years and then he left me? Do you remember when you left me? Johnny? Johnny? Johnny? Look at me Johnny? Johnny Labey? Johnny Labey? Who do you think it is? Eh?

Which thread does everyone want to use - this or the Ben Mitchell thread?
Weird that Duncan didn't mention Paul. People online had been talking about the anniversary of his death coming up so who knows why he didn't? Because honestly, it was both. Paul, and Callum pussing out and not putting his brother in line or showing any real concern or even friendship after Ben was gay bashed during fucking PRIDE and going ahead with his wedding which he clearly is not looking forward to. Yes. The closet kills!
When Tony Clay was goofing around on Toby-Alexander Smith's story on the official EastEnders Instagram, he wasn't wearing a wedding ring, so hopefully Callum leaves Whitney stranded at the alter.

It is cruel to have a Ballum-free Friday. Fortunately, this was a good episode.
The EastEnders twitter retweets Ballum comments. Whereas the Emmerdale twitter mocks the RobRon fans. I guess Emmerdale is doing better in the ratings and can afford to.

R29 I don't get it. I'd rather watch paint dry than watch that boring ass show. EastEnders has improved a lot after Kate Oates took over. I thought yesterday's episode was really good, despite no Ballum. I can actually watch EE without any gay content, the same can't be said for Emmerdale. The show is dull.

[QUOTE]Phil angers Ben by giving him a hard time over his recent behaviour. Later, Phil tries a different approach by trying to build bridges with his son. He digs out an old boxing trophy to give to Ben, but although Ben appreciates the gift, things turn sour again when he interrupts a revealing meeting between Phil and Shirley.
I am impressed by Phil's display of emotional intelligence. Giving erstwhile aspiring dancer Ben a dusty football trophy in exchange for cutting him out of his will is such a great idea.

I didn't expect that Ballum scene, so I was pleasantly surprised. Sure, it was only 2 seconds long, but that short scene was still important. It established that Callum still cares for Ben and is worried about him. Also, I feel like Ben talking about not being happy etc is foreshadowing. We're witnessing Ben's downward spiral. He's basically at the bottom now. It can only go one way from here and that's up. I think we will see happier times for Ben, and Callum will be the key. Sadly it might take a while yet.

Ben should spend more time with his mom than his useless dad. I don't get why he's constantly trying to get his acceptance and approval. It's never gonna happen. Ever. Kathy has showed that she cares about him, she accepts him and loves him unconditionally, unlike Phil. Sure, Kathy is not perfect, but she has been more of a mother to Ben than Phil has been a dad the few years she's been in Walford. Fuck Phil, he has disowned Ben. Phil is not worth it. Ben should just pretend he's dead and start living at his mom's place. It's time for him to be happy, living there he can be and then he can be with Callum. Kathy would love it if he got a boyfriend!

R81 Metro and What's On TV refer to Ben's discovery at E20 as "intriguing," and the latter seems to link it to Ben celebrating with Lola. Because of that, I might guess it has something to do with Phil's estate plans (where granddaughter Lexie might be concerned ??). And this could be what leads to Ben's follow-up scene with Sharon where she lets it be known that Ben is OUT and Keanu is IN, which in turn leads to their upcoming confrontation.
by Anonymous | reply 83 | July 28, 2019 10:32 PM |
Apparently Billy shows Max what’s in the safe so maybe he’s more sympathetic to Ben because of Lola and Lexie, and because of Phil ignoring Ben when he was last gay bashed.
As for gender fluid Karen, even if I don’t know what lipstick lesbian Caren sees in her, Karen is the character most likely to get an undercut and dye her hair pink magenta she hits 50.

People are guessing Stacey planned Phil's attack because the actress is going on maternity leave. It makes a lot of sense. I think it's her and that she will be arrested. She will be charged and found guilty, voila maternity leave. Either thay or she will run away if the police find out she did it.
