No sooner do I start whining about Tommy and Tina and Izzy and Gary and the baby disappearing into thin air, and hey presto, they all reappear.
Now, if we can do the reverse with the Paul-isn't-actually-a-racist-but-we'll-say-he-is storyline, that'd be magic. Jenna's going on like he's organising National Front rallies, and Sophie's trying to get him fired from his job.
There's some lovely touches these days. Rita and Emily reminiscing about the Hewitts' house blowing up, Fiz being upset to hear of former foster-mum Hayley's illness, Roy remembering how much hurt Tracy caused them over the whole Amy/Patience storyline - even Tina referencing her terrible sun-tan addiction, it's not all terrible out-of-character stuff, which is why this racism storyline is clanking around so badly. That, and David's skulking skulkiness. These people KNOW David. They KNOW they have a secret that would destroy him and make him hate them if he discovered it. WHY has no-one considered the possibility that the stupid campaign against Nick may be related to this?
Also, a minor grumble: Michelle going nuts at Peter going to work in the factory. "What experience does he have of the rag trade?" she muttered between walking around with a clipboard and twirling her hair, presumably while waiting for a comedy overweight sweaty sexless boor to require her tits in full view to close a deal. Obviously her years of singing on cruise ships turned her into Deborah Meaden, and her job there has nothing whatsoever to do with her being the owner's sister-in-law.
