    Would seriously doubt he's transgender. I think it's a major faux pas these days to cast non trans actors to play trans characters.

    Did Stacey have a half sibling who was trans?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,934 ✭✭✭✭fin12


    I’m sorry but is it mental health that’s issacs secret?

    Why? It’s called acting. I suppose next you will be staying a heterosexual shouldn’t play a gay character....

    I think it sounds like it’s something along that line. Especially the way his mother is trying to keep Lola away. He has mentioned a bad break up that upset him for a long time already. Maybe he couldn’t handle the break up and stalked the ex girlfriend or something. Although when Patrick was in hospital he mentioned that he has an illness too so maybe he’s HIV positive or something.

    Russell T Davies refused to cast straight actors to play gay characters.

    Unrelated to EE, I was reading an article about Sickle Cell Disease the other day & Isaac came to mind.
    Didn’t really think too much more about it until his & Sheree’s conversation last night so I’m wondering if that’s what his illness might be.

    Is that what Oliver in Corrie died from?

    And has this Russell t guy, refused to cast gay actors playing straight characters? Ya I’m pretty sure not!!!

    Not sure as I don’t watch Corrie but Google says it was a mitochondrial disease. Don’t think they’re the same thing as SCD seems to be about blood more than all the bodys cells being involved which is how I think mitochondrial disease affects people.

    Yes & was played by a trans actor.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,568 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Isaac mentioned being 16 when he had sex so maybe he caught HIV or Aids through unprotected sex and was in hospital for treatment

    I don't know, I'm not actually Russell T Davies.
    Being trans and gay are not the same though. It has become a faux pas to cast non trans actors as trans characters, no need to shoot the messenger.

    Sorry ur post has to be a wind up. I don’t care if it’s become a faux pas doesn’t mean everyone has to agree with it. Acting is playing a role and character u are not in real life. Ur sexual orientation or whatever gender u identify in real life should not determine whether u get a role or not.

    I'm saying EastEnders aren't gonna go there as it is viewed these days as a faux pas.
    I don't actually work in casting.

    I do like the idea of Issac becoming a stalker aka bad break up

    gotta be true if they're saying it on Twitter :pac:

    We had that recently enough with the guy (can't even remember his name) in the attic that Whitney killed.

    I think it is HIV which is no longer a big deal and can easily be controlled by medication. With everyone watching Its a sin it would be timely.

    She has a miscarriage

    The whole storyline is ridiculous and has been done to death by Eastenders (Dennis and Zoe anyone?) and the other soaps and if I understand correctly, the next part of the story (dunno how to do spoiler tags on my phone) has already been done on Corrie a few years back

    Why did Ruby have to turn on Stacey like that? What’s the point? Stacey was trying to give her an olive branch.

    I think she knows she could lose Martin back to her

    I assume Stacey will be leaving soon (Lacey maternity) hopefully before outing the truth of all Ruby did


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,441 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    Ruby seems unhinged now. She just seems to be descending further into madness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,568 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Sean used and disliked Ruby


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,150 ✭✭✭Immortal Starlight


    Aw it’s a pity Tiffany didn’t tell the fella that asked if she was a natural redhead that he was a natural dickhead

    I am surprised Ruby said yes to Dotty's job for Tiffany after her rape ordeal

    I am glad Jack saw through Chelsea, I really do not remember them together

    I think it’s kind of funny how awkward Phil is when trying to talk about his dating life... not such a hard man after...

    Him and kat are probably a good enough match.

    I thought that was so horrible. Imagine trying to bang her mothers fella:eek: It was so obvious why she suggested it too. I don’t really remember them together either. I think it was back when Chelsea had a different head

    I remember the old Chelsea with Grant and Dean, did she and Dean rob and attack Patrick?

    I didn’t know Chelsea was with Grant and Dean or robbing Patrick. I do remember her telling her mother she was seeing Jack alright though. I think Denise was mad because she thought Jack was too old to be with Chelsea.

    I think Grant dumped Chelsea for David Wick's ex wife, schizophrenic Joe Wick's mother

    Dean fancied Chelsea and she used him

    Yeah I think Chelsea’s character leaves a lot to be desired alright. I don’t like her or her attitude that she is more clever than everyone else.

    Is Stacey going to go to prison for assault (to coincide with actress's maternity leave), and the kids come live with Martin and Ruby?
    It would be great if it was Lily to discover that the scan is not Ruby's!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,158 ✭✭✭✭iamwhoiam


    Did Ruby know it was a girl ? I thought the technician said it was too soon to tell ?

    I often drift in and out of Eastenders every few months so could someone explain to me how Lucas is back? Didn't he murder a couple of people?

    He's out now, and came back to the square with Chelsea in tow.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 165 ✭✭FHFM50

    Right but he deliberately murdered like 2 or 3 people. It wasn't manslaughter.

    Shouldn't it be a life sentence?

    You'd have to ask the BBC.

    Finding this Lucas, Chelsea and the drug dealer story very tiresome. None of them have a single redeeming quality and I just couldn't care less what happens to them.

    I think he is out on licence. Drug story is dragging on too long.
