Seat68 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 it was pretty shocking, its not normally on but I think we were looking for who killed lucy, some pretty shoddy acting all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Yeah its sometimes watched but we don't really have any 'must see' TV in our house. If it's on when we sit down to veg out it would be watched because it's on the default BBC so it gets watched where Corrie or Emmerdale never ever would. But last night was brilliant. Brilliant in that so bad it's good kind of way. A woman was hit by a car, proper up in the air over the top of the car hit - and people asked if she was ok and took her to the pub. A pregnant woman got married, had a car crash, got rescued from a fire, died and was resurrected. What's not to like! The baddie wears a black hat and a full length black leather coat. The wedding was disrupted by an argument over money that had Phil Mitchell giving it the full 'shut it you slaaag' school of acting. Even though he's physically shrunk and got visibly older in recent years. The token black family have a mystery pregnancy, a guy with a stroke that might be getting beaten up and a washed up drunk woman. Just brilliantly bad.

sharkyvilla Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 The last time I watched Eastenders, Phil Mitchell was resuscitating Danny Dyer's puppy. Mouth to mouth. I decided it wasn't for me and did something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumerican Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 When the one woman in Eastenders hadn't been responding to the medics for 10 minutes so they stopped resus and called it, then her sister whispered in her ear that she had a lovely baby boy who was a fighter, just like her - and she came back to life.I don't watch soaps but is that not how Trinity brings Neo back to life in the Matrix ?

I think she was the Eastenders Christmas story, but they got confused and chucked in a bit of Eastermas too. Off on a tangent - I'll have to dig out the proper reference, but there was a lecture on the radio a couple of months ago that included the story of an Austrian girl that fell under the ice on a frozen lake. She was under the water for something like 30 minutes, it was an hour before an ambulance / rescue team arrived and she was pronounced dead. But because of the extreme temperature they decided to take her to hospital - a journey of an hour or so. So 3 hours after she drowned and 2 hours after being declared dead she's in hospital and has absolutely no signs of life. They decide to very very slowly warm her up. Long story chopped very very short, after a day of no readings they put her on artificial lung and heart machines, brain still clinically dead. Put some sort of warming probe in her head and over a week she began to breath on her own. After about a month she woke up but without use of limbs, 6 months later, completely restored as though it never happened. longest anybody has ever been 'dead' and come back. It was told a lot better by the guy giving the lecture on the radio. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) They'd stopped trying to resuscitate her and pronounced her dead, then her heart started up, like I said I'm not even sure if that's medically possible Edit - according to wiki yes you can, it's called Lazarus syndrome and there have been 38 reported cases of it, worldwide, in the last 32 years Edited January 2, 2015 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 ^^ someone needs to update that wiki page with a 39th EastEnders is utter utter tripe with the laziest writing in any tv show ever, couple of examples. 1) A few years back they bought back 'dirty Den' even though he died about 20 years ago, he came back, he wasn't dead after all. Now if that was ridiculous enough in the last couple of weeks they have done exactly the sane with Nick Cotton, back from the dead. 2) Again about 10 years ago they had the big reveal that Kat Slater was not actually Zoe Slaters sister but actually her mum (wow!) Now this week, Danny Dyer finds out that Shirley (ugliest woman ever?) Is actually his mum and not his sister as he thought. Got know why women watch it and don't see it for the site that it is.

chrisp65 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 it's just a taste thing isn't it I don't particularly care for it, though I think I'd know a good number of the characters names. I can see how lots of people could think it's eye and ear burningly bad. I can also see how people fail to get the appeal of a pot bellied racist troll driving around in a selection of sports cars tossing out superlatives in a mid atlantic drawl week in week out with absolutely no change to the script in years. My personal 'hate' is old fashioned sit coms, the Khan's and Brown's of this world. My parents think they're the best things on telly. But at the end of the day, it's all only telly. Music, now that's a much more serious subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Designer1 Posted January 2, 2015 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted January 2, 2015 I'm sure a few people have read about the fan who died in front of his daughter just after the Sunderland match.

snowychap Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Christmas chocolate reduced post christmas, e.g. Quality Street 'My Green Bar'. They've taken the green triangle thingies, put four of them together and made a bloody bar out of them! And then they've reduced them to 28p a go.
