We only had a little Callum on Friday, but got to see him interacting with someone new, in the form of Chantelle, which was nice. She came round with hair magazines for Whitney but Callum didn't want to even touch them. "It's like seeing the dress before the wedding" - um, no Callum. On the… Continue reading 9th August, duty calls

Episode recaps and thoughts.
8th August, just dive right in
Happy Friday guys! Last night we were treated to both Ben and Callum - not in the same scene unfortunately. But we did get one small Ballum moment, perhaps to prepare us for when they actually interact again. Ben spends pretty much his whole time in this episode annoying Louise and Sharon. The literal second… Continue reading 8th August, just dive right in
6th August, you’ll find someone else
I don't think I'm going to do this episode justice talking about it, honestly. I'm pretty sure it just became my favourite Ben episode, and certainly my favourite performance from Max - just fantastic. Ben and Jay (who's often sidelined) getting that space to breathe, to talk and for Jay to show what an outstanding… Continue reading 6th August, you’ll find someone else
5th August, chip off the old block
Ben and Callum in the same episode? Pinch me! Unfortunately they didn't interact, though it felt like they came so close several times. I don't know if it was just my wishful thinking or that they're doing it on purpose, slowly integrating their paths so they'll eventually run into each other again. Screencaps for this… Continue reading 5th August, chip off the old block
2nd August, nice little payout
While the previous ep saw Ben pretty much everywhere as he hid evidence and set up Keanu, this episode kept Ben in the hospital waiting room as he did more secret scheming under the guise of concern for his dad. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. That's not to say I think Ben… Continue reading 2nd August, nice little payout
1st August, I’ll sort this
It's officially Callum and Whitney's wedding month! I think, after a relatively quiet July, we're in for a big month. It's certainly kicking off for Ben already, but not from a Ballum perspective. Indeed, we were hoping for a surprise Callum appearance tonight (as we knew nothing about how Phil's attack aftermath was going to… Continue reading 1st August, I’ll sort this
30th July, pipe-cleaners and a shotgun
So, someone got slapped dahn last night, and it wasn't Ben doing the slapping! I think most of us were pretty certain Ben wouldn't be the one to attack Phil, purely because they'd made him seem too likely in the run up to it. As we will discuss... Screencaps for this episode can be found… Continue reading 30th July, pipe-cleaners and a shotgun
29th July, the new Sharon
Hello! We had a bit of Ben last night, clearly being set up as the main suspect for Phil's attack, which I believe is happening tonight. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. Phil finds Ben in the cafe and asks (no, tells) him to look after E20 for the day to ease Sharon's… Continue reading 29th July, the new Sharon
26th July, cross my heart
Hello guys - it's Monday, and EastEnders is tonight! We know we have Ben to look forward to this week, but whether Callum shows his face remains to be seen. But as always, fingers crossed! But let's touch quickly on Friday's episode (and it will be quick, lol.) Screencaps for this episode can be found… Continue reading 26th July, cross my heart
25th July, the Callum crumbs continue
Hello, let's talk about Callum's 30 second scene last night! He had a total of one line, but it was still a sweet little moment. Tiffany's plan to leave Walford has been playing out all week, and her leaving party are making their way to the Vic for a send-off. But Callum senses that something's… Continue reading 25th July, the Callum crumbs continue
