You know what I love most about the twist in
#EastEnders
? Linda's to-ing and fro-ing over whether to step in with that weapon. So often in soap it all happens so fast and the conflict and terror on Linda's face, so perfectly played by Kellie Bright, was crucial.

When the parental rights story started I didn't think it was wrong, but now the amount of times Jay claims to be Lexi's dad is getting jarring. Lola chose that because Ben was spiralling but it's turned into a disaster with Jay.

Retail workers aren't paid enough to put up with the verbal abuse they could face by implementing the rules. Some places allow their employees to 'remind' customers to wear masks if they are comfortable to do so.
