EASTENDERS

The return of the fabulous Kim Medcalf as Sam is a great injection of life into the female cast. When she, Kat and Sharon are together, it’s like watching the three witches in Macbeth, albeit on less friendly terms.

After hijacking Kat’s prison visit to Phil, Sam reveals Jonah is planning to buy Ruby’s and they should jump in first. Alas, she misses the meeting with Ruby’s lawyers when her ex dumps all her belongings in the street (Sam with them, right). Have you ever seen so much stuff?

#And where’s it all going to go?

By the look of it, the allotment would be the best place for it — six feet under the cabbage patch.

By the time she gets to Ruby’s, it’s too late: Jonah has bought it. Why? Does he not know there are never more than a dozen people in there? What will the new name be? Maybe Jonah’s Whale of a Time (geddit?)

Ben’s still wandering the streets doing his mob boss imitation, but why hasn’t he been caught? Corrie’s Craig would have nailed his crimes in two minutes flat.
