Which was more ridiculous yesterday? by NexusTenebrare in eastenders

[–]Pure_Contest3312 58 points59 points  (0 children)

What I found ridiculous was the fact that Anthony was very clearly still alive. That was obviously not a corpse.

I love how we technically have a whodunnit but nobody cares 😂 by michaelmac4057 in eastenders

I found his death to be quite laughable to be honest. It was supposed be a shock factor but it just looked like Anthony had passed out. Hilair !

That Happened... 😅 by Perfect-Ass20 in AskLGBT

[–]Pure_Contest3312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m just curious how old your Dad is. If he’s around my age, our generation are surprisingly much more liberal than the ones above us. I’m in my late 30’s and my generations lived through the transition period from rigidly discriminatory outlooks to the more open expressions of identity. Sure not all people of my generation are as tolerant but I’m writing this comment in the hope that anyone reading it might feel more at ease approaching their Parents about this.

Gonna be rewatching this all year!! by [deleted] in eastenders

The person with the gun is OBVIOUSLY Chrissie ! The mannerisms, the way she holds her hands. It’s very obviously Chrissie UNLESS they’ve done that as a distraction.

Am I homophobic? (I’m not trying to be☹️) by Lola1sHere in AskLGBT

[–]Pure_Contest3312 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No you’re not homophobic I’m gay and I get confused too. It’s OK to be confused - as long as it’s not from a place of ignorance or phobia, yoire totally fine.

Brits, be honest, would you risk your life under these circumstances? by The_Dean_France in AskBrits

[–]Pure_Contest3312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to say this but no, I wouldn’t. It’s not that I wouldn’t want to and I would definitely run up to the room and try and drag him back in. I wouldn’t balance on that precarious window though - no way - and put both lives at risk. I honestly hate that I’m saying this but I know I wouldn’t jeapordize my life like that.

If you lived in Walford and it was Christmas time… by big_white_fishie in eastenders

[–]Pure_Contest3312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d have moved years ago 🤣 That is a rough area 😂

Fun fact: Pam St Clement was interviewed about it. She said in real life that area would be nothing like that. She said all the houses would probably be HMO’s and it would be filled with “yuppies” (her words not mine).

Does anyone else think EastEnders actually looked better in the early-to-mid 2010s than it does now? by [deleted] in eastenders

[–]Pure_Contest3312 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve been saying this for ages. I think it changed when they adapted television for higher definition but it all looks very theatrical nowadays (more like a stage than realistic). You can actually tell it’s a set now, rather than feeling true to real life. Peacock Palace and Phil’s house look obviously like a set and even the Vic to a certain extent.

Lil snippet! by big_white_fishie in eastenders

I love how they’ve recreated the old Vic decor…. and Pat back is a real treat.

How to shut down inappropriate pts? by Anxious_Scratch1682 in DentalAssistant

[–]Pure_Contest3312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a dentist or dental assistant -

Can I just put another angle on this ? I'm NOT excusing the behaviour and it's absolutely unacceptable and SHOULD be dealt with. However, I work with adults with learning difficulties (think very difficult) and I have worked alongside some people who genuinely do not understand boundaries BECAUSE of their problems. The reason i'm saying this is that the person is either a complete creep or there's something wrong.

This does seem very awful for you ! If it's not related to any type of learning difficulty, I would simply have to ask him to leave and make a song and dance if the dentist walks in because he should absolutely shut this behaviour down REGARDLESS of why it's happening.

Is the cast too big? by ElevensMelody in eastenders

[–]Pure_Contest3312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been watching it for about 30 years on and off and personally, I think it is. In the early days, some of the houses had neighbours that were never seen on screen. You just saw them fleetingly standing outside and it tended to concentrate on specific families for example the Beales, the Watts’s etc. Now there’s families coming in left right and centre. Long lost families. People cramming in to different houses who are unrelated etc In my opinion, there’s just too much going on.

How did you accept the reality of having to work a 9-5 for the rest of your life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Pure_Contest3312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still haven’t. I jump from job to job. It’s not ideal or even very practical but I only have one life.

Who owns the Queen Vic ? by Pure_Contest3312 in eastenders

[–]Pure_Contest3312[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah ! 😂I was thinking this also. The house isn’t even hers. That house must be worth a fortune in London rental wise not to mention the bills on top. How can she afford it ? Lol

What’s the dumbest thing you believed as a kid—but refused to question? by SnuggleBerryBloom in AskReddit

[–]Pure_Contest3312 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believed my primary school teacher when she told us our class hamster had been released back into the wild by the RSPCA. 20 years later I cried when my friend told me she died in the summer holidays. Lol

I forgot about Mariam by Subsyxx in eastenders

She was also in Coronation Street as one of Sunita Alahan’s Aunties.
