I hope not, but I'm expecting child related, purely because she took an interest in Stacey being a single parent and then offered her money. I don't see it being life and death or how other family in Pakistan wouldn't know though. |

And because female characters are not allowed to have any desire or ambition beyond the family. I am hoping EE will prove me wrong with Shabnam's story but I doubt it. |

She called Stacey "brave" for being a single mum. I reckon this is to do with a child. She had a child out of wedlock in Pakistan, which is serious. IIRC, she was working at a nursery, so maybe she left the child there. |

So it involves a lot of money, it's apparently life or death and has led to a rather drastic lifestyle change. I don't know but if you combine the life and death statement along with the possibility that she's been in the sex industry you can't really escape the idea that maybe she was careless prostitute who somehow contracted HIV. I hate to bring it up but it makes a lot of sense. |

Rhakee Thakrar is a very understated performer and she bounces of Nitin Ganatra and Lacey Turner well, Shabnam is increasingly interesting this stint and she often provides comedic relief. I love her. |

It's difficult to say because the cast is so good at the moment. But I could watch Shabs all day long. I think she is my fav... |

I really want to see Shabnam Mark 2 with Zainab. The Masoods just haven't been the same since Zainab left. |

I'm so ready to find out Shabnam's secret tonight, I'm just hoping it's something more imaginative than a baby. |

The Carter's know . Seriously I hope it's shocking and worth the hype! About time they used the Masood's more, they have been underused for ages and now this is their time for more screentime and storylines...

When Shabnam said "this was the first time", did she mean the first time she had sex out of wedlock or the first baby she had? Who's going to get pregnant next? Whitney? Roxy? Is Jane going to miraculously regrow her womb and sprout a kid? |

If she left a baby on the street that doesn't account for where her money has come from... Also when did all this happen, they have teased this secret for a year. Did it happen right in front of us and we didn't realise or was the clues there? can anyone mention anything being said by a character regarding a baby being left on someones door step?

What I found odd was that the newspaper article was written in English. |

No. The article is in English through so it may have happened in London through there are English Language papers printed in Pakistan so it could still be Pakistan which is where it would make more story sense. The Money is either real inheritance or from the Baby's dad. If she did give birth in London then Zainab's ex partner is the dad. She dismissed him very quickly when she said they split. |

It will be more interesting if she was pregnant when she returned and dumped the baby in London but I suspect she sold the baby to the father and his wife. What was Zainab's fiancé called? Haroon? |

Hmm so did she leave the UK in 2009 pregnant then is that where this is heading? That would also make the child similar age to Lily...... possible playmates! lol Edited by Roly, 29 Jan 2015, 21:12.
