We had our last ep of #CallumWeek last night, and it was a further continuation of his story, and in the talk with Bobby, although seemingly random, it led to the next stage of Bobby's own story. We also got a little insight into Callum's mind as we head into his stag planning stuff next… Continue reading 16th August, facing the past
15th August, written all over your face
I feel like after Tuesday's episode, with Callum making baby steps in confronting his feelings, a lot of us felt like we were finally on the verge of some Ballum content. It didn't happen tonight, but Callum took another step forward, and it was cleverly paralleled with the storyline of Bex receiving her A-Level results.… Continue reading 15th August, written all over your face
13th August, never forget him
Hey guys! How heartbreaking was last night? I feel so sad for Callum, the weight of all that stress, guilt and pain must be crushing. But there were some hopeful moments too. And seeing Callum get so much screentime was a delight. So here we go! Screencaps for this episode can be found here. Real… Continue reading 13th August, never forget him
12th August, H
Have we recovered? Good, me neither. I can't quite believe that so much of what was speculated about Chris and Callum came to pass tonight - from a story we've known about since before I Smell Queer even aired! Let's discuss... Screencaps for this episode can be found here. Vicky turns up at the Vic… Continue reading 12th August, H
9th August, duty calls
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
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
The week ahead
Happy Monday guys. This week we’ll be seeing both Ben and Callum in the same episode! The bar has sunk quite low over the last few weeks. Here’s what we have ahead of us: Monday 5th August - Daran Little:The aftermath of Phil's attack continues, as some of Albert Square's residents continue with a cover-up… Continue reading The week ahead
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
