SECRETS AND LIES: It
turns out that Steven Beale has had more than one secret: the
second is that while everyone has been tearing their hair out
looking for Lucy, he knew where she was all along. He was keeping
her in a caravan park. He has convinced her that no one misses her
and she should leave the country. He books her a ticket to Paris,
but Pat discovers the ruse, so he tries to suffocate her with a
pillow as she lies in a hospital bed with a broken leg, fearing
she’ll tell Ian. But Ian already suspects and catches them at the
airport, convincing Lucy that it is Steven who has been lying to
her. She returns home to mope around the Square, while Ian tells
Steven to disappear forever...
Across the
Square...Roxie is up the duff and not sure whether the daddy is
Sean or Ronnie’s boyfriend, Jack, but she’s claiming Sean because
she doesn’t want Ronnie to know of her fling with Jack. But she
wants no relationship with Sean, even though Sean, after hearing
the news, instantly turns himself around, gets a job and
straightens up. Little does he know that Roxy is planning to
immigrate to Ibiza to escape him. Roxy’s pregnancy makes Ronnie
think about the baby she gave up for adoption as a teen...
With Gus gone, Wellard
is now back with the Jacksons...Chelsea, upset about the
reappearance of her Dad, is doing drugs...Libby and Darren
continue to misunderstand each other...Ricky has moved into Pat’s
gaff along with Bianca and her collection of misfits...
Elsewhere, the happy
(?) newlyweds Heather and Minty return from their honeymoon and it
seems their friends all have a morbid curiosity as to whether they
consummated their marriage or not. Turns out, NOT. They do seem
chipper anyway, but Heather is desperate to seduce Minty.
Everything changes though, when Garry picks up two flight
attendants, invites them over for a party and convinces Minty to
tag along. The birds insist on playing Spin the Bottle (even
though they look a lot older than 12), and Heather walks in on
dumb Minty in a lip lock, and dumps him, saying she is looking for
something better...
Attention WLIW
Viewers!:PBS Station, WLIW/ Channel 21 in New York,
has set the date for their next EastEnders Pledge Night: It
will be Friday, September 12, 10pm-11:20pm. (that’s two episodes
and a pledge break)
It will then be
repeated from 11:50pm-1:10am (with the “Visions of New York”
program sandwiched in between. Don’t you wish they’d do a Visions
of Walford?) What will be new: At press time, WLIW is still
working on getting great Pledge Premium Gifts together for you
rabid Easties. So far, they include a great new EastEnders tote
bag and a Screening Party (If you’ve never been to one, you
MUST!). In addition, we’ve been gathering memorabilia items to
offer and don’t know quite yet all that we’ll have, or how exactly
they’ll be presented. But so far we have a few great items
(including an Albert Square street sign and a script).
Keeping the show on the
air in New York is all up to YOU! So please tune in and pledge.
(If you cannot tune in during the LIVE show, you can go to the
WLIW website afterwards and pledge on-line: www.wliw.org.
Just make sure you order a Pledge Premium gift, to insure your
pledge counts for EastEnders.)
