Diane and Kush are the main thing keeping me from taking a break from EastEnders until this Michelle mess is over.
I think Ste may still be Leah’s legal father. I wasn’t watching at the time, but from what I’ve read, Amy initially told Ste that he was the father. If his name were on the birth certificate, he would remain her legal father until someone initiated legal proceedings to change it. Furthermore, now that he’s raised her as his daughter for so many years, he probably would have rights based on it being in the best interests of the child to continue her relationship with the primary man she has known as her father.
100% agree with you on the Michelle/Preston story. The show hasn’t made me care about either character, and they lack any kind of chemistry to make me believe they would be in love. Diane and Kush, on the other hand….
As for James and Scott, I have read some speculation among fans (not official spoilers) that it’s being played up because Scott will learn that Marnie is his birth mother. In Hollyoaks, any adoptee who finds his birth mother will inevitably learn it is one of the three or four women he knows in Hollyoaks Village. James and Scott would be as bad a pairing as Ste and Harry, so making them brothers would put that idea to rest once and for all.
Has Ste ever had legal custody of Leah? He’s not her biological father and would have no legal right to prevent Amy from taking her. Her father showed up years ago (played by Michael Parr from Emmerdale) when Doug & Ste were about to leave for America. In fact, they were taking Leah and Lucas with them without any mention that Amy had been informed. Wouldn’t Leah’s biological father have legal responsibility for her now that Amy is dead? Ste would have a claim to Lucas, but with his history it’s likely that Amy’s dad could gain custody.
I think the custody battle went exactly how it should. Amy was being really shady by planning to move the kids out of the country without telling their father. I could see a court giving Ste a temporary injunction to give it a chance to weigh in before the kids are out of its jurisdiction. Of course, once it actually takes a close look at Ste’s file, it would side with Amy.
I hate that Harry covered for Ste. Given Ste’s history of blackouts involving violence, he has no reason to be sure that Ste didn’t do it. He especially has no reason when he should still be mad about Ste cheating on him.
If James gets with Scott, I might need to take a break. I can’t deal with all the gays being in horrible relationships.
I’m surprised that they dropped the prison drama so quickly. They threw Aaron into an extreme situation and then just ended it. If he was fiending for drugs, could he just stop? Would his dealer let him? Would they return to trying to torture him into committing suicide? It seems like a heavy-handed way to set up a cheating/baby story.
EastEnders is trying my patience with this Michelle Fowler storyline. It seems to think that there is nothing wrong with a fifty-something teacher sleeping with her seventeen year old student. To quote Bad Education: “ILLEGAL, Chantelle!”
