This is absolutely not the route I wanted this story to go in. Absolutely not. Still, more Nancy is still not enough Nancy. So I'm partially looking forward to it. |

This is the type of story that needs to be based in truth. In scenes of them all talking and shouting until Dean sees what he is. Hostage situations are a world away from everything this story was meant to stand for. Disappointed. |

This producer just can't resist a bit of sensationalism can he? He is throwing too much drama and hype at this family to the point of burning them out. |

It looks like Dean's gonna die, then. If Mick kills him, I am done. What EXACTLY is the point of this? Whoever it is that says that DTC over-eggs things, they haven't even got the HALF of it. It's just so unnecessary and hollow. |

I really hope Mick doesn't kill Dean. I'm still hoping for a mention of what happened to Dean in prison, but I don't like where they're going with this storyline. I know EastEnders shouldn't just be about giving messages to the viewers, and it would be hard for Dean to be realistically convicted, but I don't like the idea that the only way to deal with a rape is to kill the guy who did it. |

This forum certainly likes stating speculation as fact. |

I'll have to see it to fully judge it and to ascertain Dean's motives but Dean's mother and grandfather (who he loves despite everything) could be in there too when he sets it on fire and I'd struggle to see Dean wishing to harm them. It's not really the hostage situation that bothers me, grabbing Nancy will probably be desperation. |

Not really a fan of this. The whole point of the rape has been to show that Dean isn't an out-and-out villain. There's revenge and then there's sensationalism. Unfortunately this seems the latter. |

No, no no! We don't need this and especially not this week. The Carters are working well this week because they feel natural and 'normal' again. We didn't need Dean to return so soon and we certainly don't need a sensationalist attempted murder/hostage situation on top of everything else we've got going on this week. |

Am I not right in thinking that this is a reflection of just how desperate has become though?... rather than some sensationalist twist? Who knows - it might end up with Dean confessing or Shirley finally realising the truth because he has gone to such extreme measures.

I don't think Dean will confess but I do think you have a point regarding Shirley. If Shirley discovers that Dean attempted to burn the Vic down, she will be outraged. I know she doesn't give two shits about Linda generally but that does not extend to wanting her dead and Mick, Stan, Tina, her grandkids will all have been in the building, as well as terrifying Nancy and using her a hostage, I think Shirley will be forced to see what Dean can really be like and will start to doubt his story even more. It's obvious to me, anyway, that Shirley and Dean don't truly believe his version of events. Shirley "believes" him as he is her son and she doesn't want to think that of him, plus, it's an opportunity to get Linda out of the family dynamic. Dean doesn't "believe" he did it (which is different to "knowing" he did it which he does) because he is too much of a moral coward to accept the truth, it's easier to blame everyone else and in that sense, he takes after his mother. Dean is known for extreme adverse reactions when he feels backed into a corner or rejected, after a bit of thought, it might not even register that he's going to harm Stan and Shirley. He wants this situation to go away so much that he is willing to delude himself that this is all some big, nasty conspiracy against him. He is a pretty pathetic specimen really. |

I wonder why Babe appears tomorrow. Mick chucked her out so I cant see her just turning up announced for no reason. |

The only redeeming thing about doing a sensationalist plot tomorrow/ tonight with the carters, is it won't monopolize the whole hour long episode (hopefully). Like on Christmas day the story revolved around Mick coming to terms with the reality that his wife has been raped. And that took an hour long episode in order to let the truth sink in and Dyers character to change sufficiently and show a dark side. The carters were bound to get some screen time this week, I'm only grateful it won't detract away from the excitement of the Lucy reveal. Having the Carter family gathered round Stan's dying moments or having Deans character work though his state of denial would be such drawn out, wet blanket in comparison.

Hmm it is sensational but I can't say it's not in character for Deano. This guy always resorts to desperate measures when things don't go his way. I mean, just look at what he did to Linda. |

How does it make any sense though? He has absolutely no chance of being convicted, his mum hasn't exactly shunned him and he has only been outed to a very small community, half of which don't believe it. He could sell Blades, earn a few bob and start again somewhere else. |

He doesn't know he wont be convicted through and in his eyes Shirley asking him to leave is shunning him. |
