You know you’re a villain when Den Watts calls you a nasty piece of work lol

[@mikeykm1993]

Laura’s story was tragic. Felt really sorry for her just before she died.

[@ghogg69]

janine did play her part well, made me report myself to get a buzz lol

[@lauren9004]

😂

[@scottiegirl2041]

Funny how when a scuffle breaks out in the Vic all the punters eavesdrop and do nothing to help nor stop it.

[@shanefolan]

i thought janine was 1 of the best bits of the 03-04 era

[@shanefolan]

2003 was actually a good year, it was 2004 that was terrible.

[@kelechiasika9429]

How?

[@soniaclarkstewart]

too bad they didn't come for Baby Bobby then.

[@lauren9004]

Facts

[@kerryannbradley6292]

It was after 2002, that some of the other characters, changed. They just weren't the same

[@brendanjessie6466]

It was 2004 the year Charlie Brook left for the first time as Janine then came back in 2008 to 2014 and is now returning this year cant wait

[@jaredporikos2197]

Den was even like I know im an evil bastard but Janine is worse !

Exactly! I was thinking that.

@@jaredporikos2197 It's really hypocritical considering all of the despicable things he did. Janine is nowhere near as bad imo

[@berrybunny9139]

Wait so bobby is bobby Beale as in the bobby who killed Lucy?

[@monalisasmile6629]

Berry Bunny Yes. Laura was Bobby's mother. She died, after tripping on a toy and fell down the stairs, broke her neck. When did you start watching?

[@janaygallagher1920]

Janine reporting Laura for calming benefits

[@lauren9004]

Damn

[@katemissfilanpurrmcdevitt]

I think she cheated the system as she had a full time job Xx

[@gemma1874]

You only claim benefits if your on maternity leave. When you are ready to go back to work you have to let the benefits know. You can't work and claim maternity benefit s because is cheating the benefits system

[@anishagreeneing3676]

0:57 "look at you! Scrounging round, buying food no body in here would eat!" Janine should have mentioned the obvious, if Laura was so desperate and eating scraps how come she was able to suddenly afford a skirt suit and new pair of knee high boots we've never seen her wear before this episode? maybe Janine had a point after all.

[@lauren9004]

EXACTLY

[@jojotellingithowitis88]

❤️ Charlie Brooks (Janine)

[@hughoconnell4556]

can anyone upload the scene where paul confesses his part in Barrys death to pat and nataile and the send of for him

[@chloehoughton2106]

Oh my god

[@alexjones1985]

I'm on benefits myself and, whilst I'm not saying what Laura did was right, Janine was one nasty so and so to report her!☹️

[@victormilligan7546]

alex jones get a job

[@clairelally5236]

alex jones Janine was simply taking revenge on Laura for scarring her by throwing hot milk into her face and attempting to frame her for the poison pen letters.

[@thedominantone2494]

Victor Milligan why don't u fuck Off and stop judging people I think because u got a job it's easy to get one which it's not pathetic little freak

[@jaredporikos2197]

@Kris Ford fuck you

[@lauren9004]

I completely disagree with you

[@jamiedevlin6253]

Go janine

[@Scotti_o7]

How old was the Actress when this aired

[@kwesiidun8512]

Charlie Brooks (Janine) was 22 here and Hannah Waterman (Laura) was 28 or something.

[@kevinprior3549]

Y didn't Ian step in and help?

[@monalisasmile6629]

Kevin Prior they were estranged then. He basically didn't give a toss.

[@soniaclarkstewart]

Laura did a lot to help support Ian, but when he thought Bobby wasn't his, he conned her into signing all the business over to him and left her penniless. He didn't care.

[@dictionpun1549]

(0:44) Laura was furious at Janine in the Vic after she shopped her for benefit fraud like scams that ruined her job. 😡😡😡😡

[@dontwa]

This is a perfect example of how a good actor/actress can be a victim of bad writing. Charlie has been amazing since she came back in the 2008 Dietrcik Santer - era. But this entire 2003-2004 period was pure HAM-tastic.

Laura got what she deserved yes Janine isn’t a nice lady but Laura ruined Lynn and Gary’s marriage with her wicked lies and she hated others who were very more successful than her Xx

[@shanefolan9175]

what lies? Gary had a 1 night stand with her and to be honest she believed Gary was the dad. Lynne had multiple affairs herself so her and Gary were as bad as each other. Ian cheated on Laura too multiples times so it annoyed me he took a moral high ground.
