So the focus was on Callum in last night's episode, and while his feelings on Ben's confession are still a bit of a mystery, his feelings on Ben despite that have never been clearer. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. In the cafe, Rainie's trying to get Callum interested in going on a… Continue reading 17th January, something like that

Hey guys! It's certainly a rollercoaster of a week we and Ballum are having, and it's not over yet. We first see Ben with Phil and Denny as they walk through the Square. It's not really Ben's scene, but he's there standing behind the other two as they talk about Denny's visit to the dentist.… Continue reading 16th January, I wouldn’t

Well, no one said it would be easy. And my goodness, have things just gotten really difficult. What a painful episode! But some stunning performances. We start off with a little bit of cuteness as Ben tends to baby Peggy while Lisa reveals to Phil that Louise is saying all sorts of crazy things, including… Continue reading 14th January, you know

Well well well. That was an episode for the ages, wasn't it? Out of all the predictions for what would happen in the car lot, none of us expected that. But also - it made total sense. Before we get to that scene though, we got a few scenes with Ben, and he's not in… Continue reading 13th January, Callum’s back (with a bang)

Hey all! Our double dose of episodes on Friday were a much needed insight into how Ben's dealing with everything at the moment, with some key scenes with Louise in particular. I think it's apparent that Ben's not even allowing himself to crumble in private (as I know some of us were hoping he would)… Continue reading 10th January, wham bam thank you Sam

Hey guys! The little insights into Ben's mind continues, with what he says to others - and once again, no scenes of him on his own. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. The two scenes we got of Ben, he was ranting about Ian letting Sharon live in the Beale house - even… Continue reading 7th January, lost someone

So, the wait to see Ben a) on his own and b) sober continues, as Friday's ep saw him harrass Martin a bit more, and being confronted by a frantic Karen, who now knows her son is alive thanks to Martin. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. Ben spots Martin in the markets,… Continue reading 3rd January, a bit more Ben

Hey guys! I hope everyone's feeling a bit better today - I am. The worst has happened - the flashback is over and characters are now showing feelings and emotions again. So now we get a better sense of how Ben's reacted to what he thinks he's done. And I feel this is only the… Continue reading 2nd January, there is no forgiveness

Well. That was an episode. I know so many are disappointed right now. Ben/Ballum aside, the episode didn't live up to anyone's expectations, I don't think. Is that our fault for thinking they'd be cleverer than that? Maybe. But they'd done so well up until now, in general. Maybe the press pictures of Keanu at… Continue reading 1st January – Happy new year (not)

I waited this post out in case we got any Ben in tonight's ep (31st Dec) that I could combine with this post, but he never appeared. So here's what happened in the tiny scene we got on Monday! Screencaps for this episode can be found here. Bit of a strange scene, but because we're… Continue reading 30th December, Mitchell charm
