I think we might see a bit of a Vanessa break down now. She's been on the verge of it for weeks and judging by the spoiler picture that monkeyblair posted (yes, I'm not letting that slide ), she'll be around a bit longer yet.
I was near shouting at the telly during tonight's episode. There was so much going on though that I don't really know where to start. Obviously I've covered the fact that I don't like Lauren and that I thought her actions were fecking stupid. On to Max and Tanya though, I think Max truly does love Tanya and she'll always be the for him, cancer or not. I so wanted her to tell him what was happening and now I'm annoyed that Lauren's made him go, the spineless and witless Abi has let her older sister dictate what happens again and he doesn't know what's going on. I really fucking hate Lauren, I'm not sure if I made this clear. I also thought Vanessa had a fecking cheek telling Max he could say his bit and go - it's not her house and she was going to the Vic for a large vodka anyway, so technically, she should have buggered off if she didn't want to talk to him.
I hope they'll bring Greg back for a showdown. Max would likely make mince out of him, but it'd be worth a watch, particularly with Jack standing there with his "told you so" look on his face and I can imagine him now rolling his eyes and diving in anyway because "faaamly's faaaaamly an' all 'at".
No one seems too bothered that Lauren blurted it out the way she did. Someone should have told Tanya that, because the last she knew, Max was going to tell Vanessa himself even though she said not to. Then, Tanya should have slapped Lauren for opening her oddly-shaped pie hole. Tanya could really do with making it known that she was as up for it as Max too. I don't like that he gets all the blame. Poor Max.
Cora needs hoofed out as well. All this "that boy needs looking after". Would that be the same boy that she was ignoring and who fell down the stairs because she was too busy getting tanked up and trying for a Trueman Booty Call? Old slapper.
