We're at the week before Christmas, and things are getting intense... Monday 16th Dec - Dana Fainaru Phil remains convinced that Sharon and Jack are having an affair. Although Ben tries to convince him that he's wrong, Phil is determined to get his revenge. Ben tries to issue some home truths to Phil to make… Continue reading The week ahead (week 51)
13th December, no point without you
How good was that episode? So many interesting interactions and conversations, and it felt like Ben and Callum both got a ton of screentime, each with their own stories going on. Let's discuss! Screencaps for this episode can be found here. Immediately following an early morning scene with Phil and Sharon (Phil up early and… Continue reading 13th December, no point without you
12th December, absolutely not
So, turns out Callum (and Tiff) didn't have a big role to play in this ep. But the ep was about Whitney, and I didn't mind the lack of screentime, because she was just amazing, and needed to be the one to rescue herself. But here's what we did get: While Leo traps Whitney in… Continue reading 12th December, absolutely not
10th December, house to ourselves
You don't need me to tell you how good of an ep that was. Even without our adorable Ballum scenes - that cliffhanger was heartstopping! But this is a Ballum blog so I'm going in with the Ballum stuff. In a move designed to kill us off, Ben and Callum walk down the street holding… Continue reading 10th December, house to ourselves
9th December, seen the light
Week 50 is underway! Tonight we had a few small Ben scenes, plus a very disturbing Leo scene that does not bode well for Whitney, or Callum... Screencaps for this episode can be found here. We first see Ben and Lola coming into the cafe, with Lola trying to convince Ben that entering Lexi into… Continue reading 9th December, seen the light
The week ahead (week 50)
Hey guys! It's getting more difficult to keep up with spoilers, so it's possible I've missed a few bits out. I'm keeping the rest of the weeks in my drafts though, so I can add to them when I see a new spoiler floating about! This is the week of Callum and Tiff coming to… Continue reading The week ahead (week 50)
6th December, bent copper in the family
Well, that was a turn up for the books! I don't think anyone was expecting Phil to be supportive, but suddenly it made sense, as it ended up giving Ben an increased sense of loyalty to his dad, not wanting his businesses to suffer (a far cry from April when he'd have jumped at the… Continue reading 6th December, bent copper in the family
5th December, I found something
It was a case of short but sweet tonight - our two Ballum scenes were adorable, plus a bit of angst. We start off with Tubbs tracking Ben down in the car lot office (where you can usually find Ben these days.) Tubbs jokes that he's found the ghost of Ben Mitchell - presumably since… Continue reading 5th December, I found something
2nd December, mind how you go
So we're halfway through week 49 - a slow start, with no Ballum at all tonight, but it picks up on Thursday and Friday with Jonny O'Neill's episodes. Firstly though, here's what's happened so far this week. Screencaps for this episode can be found here. On Monday, Mel had her funeral - organised partly by… Continue reading 2nd December, mind how you go
The week ahead (week 49)

Monday 2nd Dec - Madeleine CliffordBilly is worried about Karen's money woes, but has an idea when he learns that Ben is the source of the trouble.Tuesday… Continue reading The week ahead (week 49)
