The Siddiqis are fast becoming my favourite family: it'll be a bit difficult finding matching outfits for the baby and the placenta.
Her IQ does seem to drop every show, her and Joey Essex could have such riveting conversations. Agree on the Siddiqis, some fantastic comments from them but to be fair that loony woman and her scented placenta was an easy target.

Even when they tried to identify and explain Nelson by his statue in Trafalgar Square, she seemed completely baffled. I fear many of our great leaders and legends will slowly sink into the mists of time, after our own generation is gone.

But on the subject of the "wood from HMS Victory" - what was that guy on FFS? "It must be from the Victory because the date is written on it." And as far as I could ascertain, that was the total sum of the provenance. OK mate, come round my house and I'll flog you Hitler's teeth. Honest guv. Must be so - they date from that era.......

(If he could prove it , then I reckon £50k is about right. But how the hell DO you prove it?)

Hopefully the gay couple will be gone now that they have given their pants to Kevin Bacon

Have you EVER seen someone eating cereal with a fork? WTF ? What happens to the milk?

Having seen the reactions of the families to the Eastenders denouement, I despair for the future of this country. It was poorly acted and directed, quite frankly I couldn't give a toss who did it. They all sat there enthralled. IT'S A SOAP!!!

PS When the Tapper family were watching and shouting out, I'm sure Dad Tapper yelled "Rolly". Wasn't that Dirty Den's dog?

PPS I was amused by Steph and Dom suggesting that Anne Boleyn's head would bounce into the spectator area, and they'd hold on to it like fans at a football match. biggrin

You could smell Trafalgar on it apparentlylaugh

Used to love Four Rooms but gone right off it past couple of seasons.

Someone asked earlier, but nobody answered - why does one of the gay lads have the London 2012 logo on his arm?

I've just had a quick look at the Victory's history - she was in action long before Trafalgar so it could have been a piece of the structure which had been damaged in battle and replaced, but when was the "1792" carved? Was it before it was fitted, or after it had been taken out? If it's the latter, then it only smells of the Medway. Too many questions, too few answers.

I noticed that when "Tubby" Moffat was showing her ignorance, her parents fudged around when answering her questions. They knew vaguely who Nelson was, but lacked any other information - probably didn't know the date of the battle, or indeed much else about the great man. It's all a bit sad.

Is the gay guy on the left going through a mid life crisis? Elton Jon hair and now terrible orange tan. I guess that's what happens after meeting Kevin Bacon.

I'm the only person I know who thinks it looks pale blue and gold. I must have weird eyes.

Me too! I didn't understand the debate at all black & blue vs white & gold, it always looked blue and gold to me.

Watching the Stephen Hawking sketch from Comic Relief where he transforms into a giant robot, the Malone mum pipes up with 'yeah but I bet he didn't stay in that robot'. Genius.

And anyone else wish the thick Geordie bird would just SHUT YOUR BLOODY GOB FOR FIVE SODDING MINUTES!!!!!
