Hey guys - Warehouse Week is upon us, as well as potentially the last week of boxsets.

9th August, she?
Just a little bit of Ben in the first episode of the week, still in hospital as he finds out that Suki isn't the one who saved him. Before we get to that, we have Sam seeking out Zack in the cafe to check whether he's doing what she asked, finding Lewis. Zack resists the… Continue reading 9th August, she?
4th August, listening
Thursday's double episode saw Ben coming round and a focus on Phil learning lessons and attempting to do right by Ben. Pretty significant to have Phil not just acknowledging recent mistakes, but recognising that it's a pattern. The first thing that happens in Part One is Kheerat asking after Ben to Kathy. Their friendship is… Continue reading 4th August, listening
2nd August, breathe
Poor Ben spends all of this episode unconscious, and in fact most of it not even breathing. And I have lots to say about Callum... As Ben lies in the same position we left him in the previous ep, the Beale house are still at dinner, and Lexi is refusing to come downstairs, upset that… Continue reading 2nd August, breathe
1st August, late
It all came to a head for Ben in Monday's episode - reminders everywhere of what he's lost and how he's changed, and he wound up at rock bottom. Ben appears in the kitchen at the start of the episode, looking for breakfast as Kathy informs him it's nearly lunchtime. I don't think Ben's got… Continue reading 1st August, late
The week ahead (week 31)
The week ahead is finally here! I know how much it drags for those watching the boxsets. But only a few more weeks of those and we're back to normal, hopefully! Mon 1st August - Yasmeen KhanKathy is unimpressed to see James has stayed the night with Ben and as they discuss plans for later,… Continue reading The week ahead (week 31)
28th July, limits
It's a Thursday double bill to round off the week! Featuring Ben continuing his provocative behaviour and Callum dealing with his Stuart-shaped bouncer. Read on... This week we've been seeing Zack try to buy back the car that he sold earlier in the year from Rocky - and in part one of Thursday, he gets… Continue reading 28th July, limits
26th July, forward
Sam does some damage control in this episode, not realising the damage she's facilitating as a result, and Ben is still leaning into his antagonistic, promiscuous persona. While Kathy frets about Ben not coming home the night before and shares her concerns to Rocky about whether Ben is able to look after himself, we see… Continue reading 26th July, forward
25th July, hard time
It's a new week of angst for Ben, and his opinion of himself has never been lower - and it's pretty low at the best of times. Monday's episode opens with Ben on the sofa, in the shirt he was wearing when Kathy tucked him in last week but, funnily enough, lying the opposite way.… Continue reading 25th July, hard time
The week ahead (week 30)
We're already at another week ahead! This week is mostly drug-related where Ben's concerned, and we've got a bit of Callum as well related to Stuart's post-natal depression. Mon 25th July - Kevin RundleBen is surprised to spot dealer Tez giving Sam a packet of drugs at the club. Later, Phil starts to question Ben… Continue reading The week ahead (week 30)
