I Agree. That’s Why Despite Every Bad Thing That Robert Did, Like Victoria & Diane, I Understood The “why”.

Robert not only loves you, he absolutely ADORES you!

“i’m not used to people giving a damn about me, and i don’t know how to give one back, let alone love someone … and i don’t know if i ever will. and that’s the truth, and that’s why it’s hard, because who’s ever gonna want to be with somebody like me?”

That really is true. Poor Robert. I do feel very badly for him. Aaron’s treading water with Liv, but they need to do it TOGETHER. Robert HAS to be first with Aaron.

I just feel like we all need a scene where Robert is all quiet, sitting on his own in a darkened room.

Then Aaron finds him and they have a heart to heart about Roberts feelings.

I agree.

Sorry to spew more negativity but... Vic gets less meaningful screentime than a casual market trader in Eastenders! I also think part of KO's failure today is an ageist thing. She really doesn't seem to respect some of the older, legendary characters. I remember reading about the Alan Turner actor feeling really let down when KO's came onboard. It's sad cos older ones make the community a real community and tie families together. Just look at Peggy's treatment in EE. KO's is rubbish at respect.

HELLOOOOOO ANON!!!

Noooo, it’s completely okay! You can come and talk to me about this all as much as you want!

OH GOD. That Vic comparison to an EE market guy, though. Where is the lie tbh??

I don’t know … I mean, I wish she realised that the older generation and the younger generation CAN mix? Instead of having the older generation in one group and the younger in another. Bc when they mix, they have some SUCH GOOD scenes!

I can’t wait for her stuff to end, man. Literally. I’m so done with it.

Jenny, you are so great! I love all your stuff!

This feels a little irrelevant right now based on what I’m reading of the live blogging (haven’t watched the ep yet) but I made it anyway and I’m sure it will be applicable again in the future so… @stulot @memorieswarm

Agreed.

the ugly fact that this pregnancy is overtaking such important topics for and about AARON. all he went through, basically tortured with, and we even got the promise of some possible much-needed therapy (shocking), but the focus is planted on this unnecessary baby drama now instead. i’m just so disappointed

If you’ve known Robert since he was a kid, especially teenaged Robert, you know the losses in his life. You know the nasty things Andy did. You understand why he valued money in place of real love. You understand the closeted Robert. Then you know how far he has come to this time. You get why he loves, adores Aaron. I’ve always liked Robert, rather unstood him, even though he’s done awful things. I always knew the good that was in him. Aaron brings that out in Robert-the good. 

“I hope that there are people who like Robert, empathise with him and see that he isn’t just a monster. Maybe he divides opinion - some people absolutely hate him, some people love to hate him and maybe some people even feel sorry for him. He’s a troubled character with problems and they manifest themselves with the horrible things he does.”
