pembie Posted September 27 Report Posted September 27 Edens story somewhat similar to my mom around restrictions being at the height of covid but given Edens only tested within the family I’m sure someone out there will be Edens hero eventually otherwise l don’t know what to say again Tane and Sonny well l don’t think they were best friends too begin with sooo and not everyone in life are friends so l don’t think l would be that bothered Quote
James Martin Posted September 29 Report Posted September 29 I'm struggling to stay invested in the Eden or Zane storylines at the moment. I think with the Eden storyline the constant "socially distanced outdoor gatherings" are triggering as I went to some dark places when we had to do that IRL, but with Zane we know he's not permanent and it does feel like someone's realised Maz hasn't had anything to do in the year since Irene left so let's give Emily a bit of screen time. 1 Quote

What do you think will happen with Marilyn next her stories seem to be pulled out of a hat l think she might be taken by aliens Yes Edens story doesn’t really make you want to actually watch does it?

H&Alover Posted September 29 Report Posted September 29 Naturally it had to end badly for Eden and the family party with her collapsing and having to be rushed to hospital. Levi was right about waiting for an ambulance as the paramedics would have oxygen for her. We found out why mum wasn't there, she was recruiting friends to donate. Odd that no-one has thought of contacting Gary to be there for Cash, he's really struggling. Two more people who would have signed up to donate were Harper and Dana. We did see Cash showing Eden the people waiting to sign up to give blood. it was a reversal on David's part, happy and relaxed enough to kiss Amelia on the beach but not so when Mac and Cash came down from Salt. A bit of a feeble excuse "I'm his boss". At this moment Cash would have other things on his mind. He's also found out how messy she is in her private life. We also found out a bit more about her, she had been fostered which explains why she dodged David's question about family. Quote
Medea Fleecestealer Posted September 30 Report Posted September 30 Who was the 4th person Cash was saying he'd lost a couple of episodes ago? His mom and dad, Flick, but who was the 4th? I can't remember there being anyone else, but I'm not good at remembering stuff from the storylines. Quote
James Martin Posted September 30 Report Posted September 30 Did I miss that Jo had gone on some sort of course? I did think we haven't seen her at all in this block. Maddison on holiday I assume? Quote

Slade Posted October 1 Report Posted October 1 Whilst I enjoyed the scenes with David and Amelia getting it on, I did find it slightly cringeworthy again, but this time from Amelia's side. Amelia certainly seems to have had a positive influence on him as I feel he's been OK as of late. Very sympathetic towards Cash re Eden and even checking in on Zane and even giving him a lift to work. I did like his reaction when he saw how messy Amelia was and it was also quite amusing regarding his "I don't want to mess with your system" line with regards to helping her tidying up. The latest episode they've been in they seem a lot more natural now. Looking forward to seeing Leah/Justin's reaction to them being together. When I saw the preview for the stuff with Lacey and Amelia, I was shaking my head at Lacey again, although when it came to the actual scenes, it did feel as though Amelia was like a dog with a bone and I think she should have left it rather than approaching her multiple times. Fair play to her for persisting. It's going to be some time before Lacey accepts Amelia as her dad's girlfriend, if ever, but at least she accepts there's nothing she can do about their relationship. I've not really got anything against Zane per se. I recognise he did a terrible thing, has served his time, is trying to get his life back on track and accept he deserves a second chance. I'm not surprised at the response to his letter however and am leaning towards, what did he and Marilyn expect. Leah warned Marilyn about this but she insisted on getting Zane to go through with it. I actually think the victim's family could have been a lot worse than a post-it note saying they would not forgive Zane. Unfortunately he's not been handling it very well. Can't really say I blame Tane for being annoyed with Sonny, although he will come round eventually. Never thought there would be a storyline with Eden that I would enjoy, but despite the sad nature, I like how all the characters involved are being written and portrayed. I do really feel for Cash, mother, sister and it's not looking good for his wife. I'm glad Remi was sorry about how pushy he was being with Zane. I wonder if Eden was not ill and someone approached him to donate blood, whether Remi would be forthcoming. 1 Quote
James Martin Posted October 2 Report Posted October 2 As if Levi and Mac haven't had enough we've now had their frozen embryos lost? It's barely registered with me because Eden has taken up so much screen time. I get the show needs light and shade but this whole show was built on a couple who couldn't have kids, so fostered instead. I've heard about how the WA storyline bought back lapsed viewers. I get why; Irene's departure bought me back into the fold after years of being very passive. They're missing a golden opportunity here to take the show back to its roots and recover some lapsed viewers. It's not beyond the realms of possibility at this point that you could move Mac & Levi into the big house to start a foster family. It's also not too big of a stretch that Pippa could be some sort of voluntary adviser for DOCS, and Alf & Maz convince her to come in as some sort of mentor to help them get started. I could go without a few explosions if they threw the chequebook at getting Debra back for a few weeks! In my mind the idea of Mac & Levi as a new Tom & Pippa is now too good an idea not to roll the dice on. It could be an incredible way to celebrate the 40th anniversary; we've watched them go through the same heartbreak one assumes Tom & Pippa went through in the 70s. I would love to see them take in waifs and strays who were able to turn their lives around. Who knows, they might take in a child actress who hangs around for 20 years! Quote
Medea Fleecestealer Posted October 2 Report Posted October 2 So, who do you think Eden's donor wil turn out to be? My bet's on it being John; makes sense of his scared of needles storyliine being used. Quote
