Oh, the angst! There was a bucketload tonight. Frantic Ben and scared Callum. And absolutely no doubt about how much Ben loves Callum and how precious he is to him. We pick up where we left off, with Ben and Keanu in Callum's flat. Ben's barely keeping a lid on his rage and panic, asking… Continue reading 11th February, the most precious thing
10th February, red tie
Kidnap week's officially kicked off! It was nice seeing so much of Callum in the episode, even though he's now at the mercy of Keanu Taylor. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. The ep starts with Callum closing the door to Cokers just before realising he forgot to bring his suit with him.… Continue reading 10th February, red tie
The week ahead (week 6)
Hey guys - kidnap week is upon us! We've had some more info released over the weekend, and as far as I'm aware this is what the week looks like: Mon 10th February -Â Jeff PoveyCallum is preparing for his assessment, but he's unaware that he's being watched by someone. Following some prompting from Stuart, Ben… Continue reading The week ahead (week 6)
7th February, hunker down
We had a little bit of Callum tonight! Not much, but definitely better than nothing. And it's setting up for a big week for him, and for Ballum. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. We first see a glimpse of him in the pub, at the bar talking to Jack as the camera… Continue reading 7th February, hunker down
The week ahead (week 5)
Long time no write! It's been a few days now without Ballum - a definite record for Max's Ben. There's no sign of them in this week's spoilers either, but I thought I'd give this week a write up anyway on the off chance they'll appear in someone else's story. Mon 3rd February - Rebecca WojciechowskiNo… Continue reading The week ahead (week 5)
27th January, hang onto this one
Our boys are back - like, properly back! And in just two short scenes we get to see that there's a shift in dynamic; essentially, instead of Ben trying to protect Callum, he's seeking out Callum's protection; his comfort, as he knows he'll get it now with no conditions. Screencaps for this episode can be… Continue reading 27th January, hang onto this one
The week ahead (week 4)
After a big Ballum week for us (well, half a week!), it stands to reason, really, that we'd have a bit of a quiet spell before it kicks off again in a few weeks. Mon 27th January - Daran LittleShirley interrupts Ian Beale's election celebration to reveal that Phil has taken Dennis away from the… Continue reading The week ahead (week 4)
24th January, stay for me
Well, how are we after that episode? One thing's for sure - there's a lot to discuss; good and bad. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. We learn at the beginning of the episode that Ben and Phil have been released under investigation - the phone footage not being enough to charge them.… Continue reading 24th January, stay for me
23rd January, just look at me
Happy Friday everyone! Let's talk about last night and all those unexpected developments! Our first scene sees Martin bursting into the Mitchell house and grabbing Ben by the lapels, accusing him of taking the burner phone that's gone missing from where he had it hidden... in the shed at the allotments. I suppose Ben is… Continue reading 23rd January, just look at me
21st January, innocent bystander
Hey all! We're halfway through the week - and yes, it's been Ballumless so far - well, Callumless. But Ben's not being given much either other than a presence as part of the Mitchells and Phil's imminent downfall - and to roll his eyes at Ian's council campaign. Screencaps for this episode can be found… Continue reading 21st January, innocent bystander
