Am I alone in thinking this was brilliant? Even the Ben and Lisa bit wasn't completely tedious. Although I knew that black woman was dead.
And I'm glad Steph came back to life, she's one of my favourite characters. I bet her epilepsy will have gone now.
So was that girl in the water, another of Toby's victims? That was all very "What Lies Beneath".
It was the best supernatural soap event since Ivy's ghost.
EDIT: And how could I forget the bit Lee was naked and bent over and Bomhead was humping his arse?

I was really freaked out by the ventriloquist dummy so spent the rest of the programme hoping I wouldn't see it again.
Does anyone actually care about Ben and slag-bint Lisa?

It was crap, but also quite good. It failed to fulfill the Hollyoaks late night special tradition of having comedy sexual couplings, for in the old days Bombhead would have knobed both those girls that Lee nearly had and then Lee (accidentally when the lights went out) for good measure, never to speak of it again. Instead we got Lisa and Ben, the most unpleasant characters in the show pairing up and going at it on the advice of a dead woman. This was comic, but also rather unpleasant.
I do wonder whether drawing attention to poor acting among the cast might be a case of skating on too thin ice.
It did contain the best line of soap ever though:
Joe (Referring to Steph's sudden ability to act): Where did that come from?
Lee: My brother-in-law's spanner.

It was perfect, as soon as it started I started counting out the 'late-night' gratuitousness: saying fuck, tits, arse, lezzing up, nothing as good as that time Ben said to Izzy 'he was ogling your tits' though.
Bring on a Neighbours late night! You can fill in the rest in your dirty, perverted minds I suppose.

It was awful. Made even worse by the fact that my brother thought it was reeeally scary.

yeah but nothing is more scary than Hollyoaks, late-night or not.

I remember in one late night episode of Coronation St, a robber in the supermarket (the one Emma Watts shot dead - he was Linda Sykes/Baldwin's brother) called Curly a "gobshite".
Am I imagining this?

I've still not recovered from the trauma of: TONY: Ruth, are you coming? RUTH: No, it's just the way I'm standing. Oh God, now I'm reliving it.
