Well most of us only had 4 channels and no internet! I do kinda miss it sometimes, everyone would watch the same TV, same movies etc. Now there is so much available we all watch different stuff. Then again without the internet I wouldn't be watching this clip and sharing my opinion with you all right now! I'm aware of the irony.

Dot calling Jim a “Stupid Old Man” is everything about this clip!! 😂😂😂

I remember seeing this at the age of 10, not fully understanding the story line at the time but there are a few priceless moments in this episode with the other characters!

[@Jayleigh2796]

I am so confused How did Martin get served when he weren’t 18 Even though it weren’t alcohol they won’t serve u usually if you aren’t 18 It’s not legal Though I was only 5 in 2000 14:31

Martin took Jamie’s true love, has a kid with her and even went on to take his life and ended up marrying her¡ Martin made a total mockery of Jamie Mitchell¡

[@iluvlafferty]

Don't act like Jamie was the perfect boyfriend. He cheated on Sonia with Zoe. Also, Martin didn't run over Jamie on purpose. It was an accident. Martin and Sonia didn't rush into a relationship/marriage, it blossoms over a long time and only happens once Sonia is sure of her feelings. She takes a long time to move on after Jamie's death.

[@Scallion_D]

How could she not know she was pregnant?

[@missolesoul]

She didn't have a regular period, and people are really good at denying that they are indeed pregnant.

[@sarahkorver2439]

In regular periods and some ladies don't have a bump .. they carry the babies into the back area.. so they don't know there pregnant.. happens a lot more than you realise.. got nothing to do with being in denial

[@laneylydon9029]

Martin was better then one who plays him now

[@hidebarnes8188]

I'm sorry to point out the facts but Sonia doesn't look like she's about to burst no bump

But she doesn't realize that she is in labor, so she only has those to reference. Plus, she realized something wasn't right, that's why she called the doctor.

How could she not know she was pregnant

[@gemmam5703]

It's not very common but some expectant mothers get some bleeding when they're pregnant which maybe mistaken for periods by those with an irregular cycle (which isn't unusual in teenagers). Also how noticeable the bump is can vary due to factors such as the mother's body shape and/or the position the baby is carried in the uterus (e.g. if the baby is carried towards the mother's back the bump will usually be smaller).

[@TheSealOfTheRose]

Did she not question why she hadn’t several months worth of periods?

[@32446]

Some people still have periods. Some people don’t have them every month. I only had one period in a whole year before I had my son.
