EastEnders: Alfie’s choice – Kat or Roxy?

On Monday, April 23rd, 2012
Roxy EastEnders Okay, so Alfie’s not in favour with Derek or Phil on EastEnders, but it looks like he’s having more luck with the women of Albert Square! Alfie’s not really one for taking hints, and in a somewhat awkward moment on Thursday Roxy was finally forced to declare her love for him. Although the tension between ...

EastEnders recap: Billy arrested for Ben’s crime

On Sunday, April 15th, 2012
eastenders Billy’s never had much luck in EastEnders, and neither have Walford police (though at least now they’re in the right family… getting warmer…). Not only was he unfairly arrested for Heather’s murder, he was subjected to some pretty harsh insults. My personal favourite was, “you tick every box on the loser’s profile.” What a professional ...

EastEnders recap: Heather’s hen night drama

On Sunday, March 18th, 2012
heather It’s all over for Ben Mitchell in EastEnders this week, as Friday’s episode saw Ian turn him in to the police. (I have to admit, I never thought Ian would be one to do Phil any favours…) It looks like Phil will have to be released,  and I definitely wouldn’t want to be in Ben’s ...

EastEnders recap: Mandy’s mystery man

On Monday, March 5th, 2012
mandy lorraine This week’s EastEnders brought a new arrival to Albert Square, sadly not in the form of a “fit bloke”, but actually Mandy’s mother Lorraine Salter, played by Victoria Alcock. Although, she’s not exactly a fresh character; Lorraine first appeared on the show over twenty years ago, played by Linda Henry. Since returning she has quickly ...

EastEnders recap: Roxy Mitchell vs. Jack Branning

On Saturday, February 11th, 2012
jack vs roxy This week’s EastEnders has been an interesting journey for Roxy Mitchell and Jack Branning. Jack started off the week by casually defrauding Roxy, then they slept together and continued like a pair of lovesick teenagers, and ended the week in a mud-slinging custody battle over little daughter Amy.  (Those who reside in Albert Square are ...

EastEnders recap: Jane trades Walford for Wales

On Sunday, January 29th, 2012
Jane After a lot of to-ing and fro-ing, Friday’s episode saw the departure of one of Albert Square’s most loved characters, Jane Beale, after almost eight years on the show. Jane first appeared in EastEnders selling candy floss at a funfair, and ended up marrying Ian after the death of her first husband from Huntingdon’s disease.  ...

Downton Abbey recap: “To live with him…UNMARRIED?!”

On Tuesday, November 8th, 2011
Season 2 Episode 8 Airdate: Sunday 6th November 2011 The final episode of Downton Abbey definitely did not end in the way I expected, with Matthew and Mary finally together at last (although there was a pretty intense kiss). Instead they rather morbidly decide it is “the end” between them (doubtful), standing over Lavinia’s grave. ...


Downton Abbey recap: ‘P for Patrick or P for Peter?’

On Tuesday, October 25th, 2011
Season 2 Episode 6 Airdate: Sunday 23rd October 2011 An intense episode of Downton Abbey draws to a close, following six episodes of upheaval, injury and death, with the end of the war! Recreating the historic moment, the camera panned around the faces of masters and servants alike, with everyone standing together listening to the ...
