Tracy's hair has been driving me nuts but they both look like they need a good wash in that photo.
Oh, Chesney....
I agree with you Marcy, lately they both look as if they forgot to shower and I don't understand why - surely they have hairdressers on the set. Eva's hair is always perfect. I'm not really looking forward to this episode. I think Tracy vs Carla has been done way too many times before. It's time to give it a rest.
I think the actresses are bored of these routine revenge plots, same dialogue, same emotions so they stopped making an effort. I bet the hairdressers and the make up people are too bored to care either.
So after all he's put his mother through,Simon gets away with abusing his mother because he's found 'innocent'in the video?
The last time Simon went to visit his father, Peter neglected him in favour of his girlfriend and accused Leeanne of sending him away and causing more trouble.Will it be more of the same when he returns again?Perhaps Simon should stay with his father permantly.
Totally agree re Tracey and Carla. How many more times? Plus I don't remember Carla ever doing anything wrong, it's all in Tracey's imagination or a result of her own warped view of the world and refusal to admit her own misdeeds (and murders!). Even Carla's one night stand with Robert was after he'd split from Tracey.
They're rewriting history with Simon too. Didn't Peter get a job abroad, and that's why he couldn't let Simon live with him? Anyway, Simon may not have kicked Kyle (notice he didn't admit that telling Zeedan he did is what made Leanne go to the police, and rightly so), but he's attacked Leanne on numerous occasions. In real life Social Services and psychologists would be brought in.
I just watched the total episode and I have to say it was really, really bad. Every one being nasty and predictable. Tracy/Carla - so many times it has been done - just have one of them disappear and have done. It's all too predictable, too boring and too nasty. Maybe TPTB are going after different demographics than myself..... if so, that's okay I'll just stop watching and I guess they don't really care.
I agree entirely with Anon 22.45. They were bad episodes, I'm so bored with Tracey v Carla and the Simon stuff is silly. Sadly even Sally and Tim were badly written with over forced 'humour'. As for anything else going on zzzzz... I'm increasingly not caring, which upsets me as a lifetime viewer.
WELL, all I can say is thank you for the warning of a very boring eppie on it's way to the warm west coast of Canada. I agree with everything you said and will try to remember not to bother watching. I would welcome see ing Martha tied up in the canal once again. Dream on...
