"No...I didn't want to" 😭😭😭😭 It takes alot of strength to say those words. He's taken the first step in healing. No doubt Kathy will give him the love and support he needs as his mother and as a survivor.
@@theresabruebaker1030 this is a story I never hoped would happen but, my God, I'm ready for these powerful actors to portray this. This whole scene felt raw
That was brilliant acting! Well done. I know for good how it feels like to be under pressure if something happened and everyone points their fingers on you. To see people who are your family and friends clearly won't see what's really going on. If it's rape or other bad things, it always feels like your head explode can't connect with people's who surrounds you everyday. Yes I know how Ben feels like that how all the loved ones don't understand you...
Tears, tears and more tears. I love the outburst telling her to shut up... he has finally reached the breaking point. The hell that is gonna break loose when Callum finds out. Lewis better start running to the hills.
🥺🥺🥺👏👏👏again max Bowden nailed it!!! It’s incredible but difficult scene to watch, at the end, it took Kathy’s judgmental comments that finally provoked Ben to come forward with the truth, I hope Kathy feel bad and regret for her quick judgmental response the minute before, you don’t make a conclusion before you hear the whole story, always let others finish their stories!
I promised I wouldn't watch until the storyline had run it's course, the main one, I know he won't be getting over what happened. I wanted to watch all together cause I get a little obsessed sometimes. But I was only able to hold out 2 weeks. Ben is breaking my heart.
Oh man. Every time. I’ve watched this scene a few times now and it gets me every time. Thank you Zebra for posting. It’s always a wait for me because im in the states so every time you post, I get thrilled.
Great acting very delicate yet powerful. On the other hand about the character this is very very disturbing rape is rape regardless of gender hope he gets help in the show
Amazing acting and now all the real #2's is gong to hit the fan. Be interesting to see how the other characters deal with their actions. Heaps of guilt. This is going to be a very messy and long road, thing defiantly wont be the same. Max really need an award of some kind for this, cant have been easy for the poor guy and he really had handled the subject with a lot of respect.
My heart finally eases just a tiny little bit, at least one person knows now, but tomorrow it shows Lewis getting close to Callum in the profile picture of the episode, it says Lewis “seeking advice” from Callum?!?! Ok, nope!! This better not going towards what I’m thinking of… Or else I’m gonna… no, please no, if Callum wants to move on, I’m ok, it’s fair for him, but not Lewis!! Certainly not Lewis trying to trick and add another assault on his list!!!
@@michaelrichardi6047 that’s what I’m worrying as well, we know Callum is strong, but what if Lewis gets him drunk or worse drugs him? Then what? Callum won’t be able to defend himself, and Lewis will be fully crossing into evil criminal and abuser territory, there would be no, not even a tiny little bit of goodness left in him anymore!
@@michaelrichardi6047 but also on the other hand, there’s another possibility in which Callum does fight Lewis off but during the struggle, he accidentally killed Lewis or put him in a serious coma or something.. then it would be bigger problem setting up for future, but anyway one way or the other, Callum will believe Ben, I just hope the 2 of them can get through this together, with no more big troubles adding up! I wish!
@@michaelrichardi6047 I heard Aidan had already finished all his scenes with EE already, so yeah, it could be a who killed Lewis story, Ben will get blamed, but Kathy, jay, Callum, Lola even… kheerat?? Because he helped Ben punch that guy before right? There’s many people could potentially wanting revenge on Lewis, but it just won’t be ben, because soap logic, that’s way too obvious 😳😳😳
This is too much I felt so sad for Ben after the he'll He is going through. I wish I could give him Hug and let him know it's will be better. No men should ever go through something so vicious as rape. The rape of John Paul and David from coronation street was down right vicious and cruel. I don't know how I am going to stick with the storyline. I love All British Soap Óperas but rape storylines it unnerves me
@@angelaholmes8888 I totally agree with you. It helps me to see someone who told and was immediately believed. Maybe one day I’ll find the strength to share my experience with the people in my life
@@angelaholmes8888 I am so sorry that you went through that. My thoughts and prayers. I hate that kind of violence towards women and men. I feel so sad that you had to endure that

No matter what man or woman. It's always going to be harder on a man to come forward because of how people act or treat them. No one deserves to be hurt No one.
@@samanthab1923 as bad as it sounds Ben is surrounded by survivors of sexual assault and whilst it's a shocking number of characters there is still something to be said about the strength in numbers of these survivors and only they know what they went through albeit different circumstances of each person but the same crime
@@samanthab1923No. There art far worser things than normal Rape. Uncool radical lbtq persons/advocates art far worse and more off-putting than naturally Dominant Manly Male Rapists. ! * Rather.
That’s what I’m concerned!! Lewis twisted the truth, but worse is that I’m afraid Lewis is taking advantage of the situation and trying to get Callum in bed as well!! Hell no!!
@@angelaholmes8888 I really hope the writers won’t actually let that happen, at least if Callum fight Lewis off, probably accidentally killed him or put him in hospital, but still that’s way better than Callum fell for Lewis’ trap and end up getting assaulted by Lewis as well, that’s too much!! Or worse, drunk and hurt Callum willingly have sex with Lewis, which I highly doubt it would happen, Callum’s personality is different than Ben, he just doesn’t seem to be that kind of guy that would do that, he’s only being nice to Lewis despite he doesn’t even want to talk to him in the first place so.. I doubt he would do that even if he’s really hurt, so fingers crossed!!
Let me guess....One of them cheats on the other. The other finds out. They break up. The one that's mad finds out a secret that makes them feel bad for their ex. They become friends again but move on. The one that was previously mad gets jealous and wants him back. They find each other on their anniversary. They kiss while an Adele song plays...oh wait.
life is so funny. one single action can change everything. If not for a text w a pic of Cal and his daughter, Ben would have had great consensual sex w Lewis and enjoyed it. Then the entire storyline would be how guilty Ben feels. What a cad he is, blah blah blah. He still would have had the STI and probably given it to Cal. Kathy was not being judgmental just stating the facts as she understood them since Ben wasn't talking. Cause it was cheating up to the point when the text came in.
He finally couldn’t hold it in anymore🥺
"No...I didn't want to" 😭😭😭😭

Kathy, that last sentence was filled with sadness and incredible rage. Ben is no longer alone

He stole this scene. I am just gone. What a performance. I hope he and Callum can bring lewis to justice

Give 👏 Max 👏 an 👏 award 👏 already!
Tears, tears and more tears. I love the outburst telling her to shut up... he has finally reached the breaking point.

Yeah lord knows what callum will do once he finds out
Or Phil

I just fucking cried. What an amazing fucking actor. I'm glad Ben has taken the first step towards recovery.
True that...
Yeah max is a great actor
I agree
Finally !!!That was phenomenal acting . I felt his pain 😢
Wow. Amazing acting indeed.
Thanks Zebra for posting!
You’re very welcome 😊
It was amazing though how almost everyone was coming down on Ben and not seeing the underlying pain.
Incredible acting .
I promised I wouldn't watch until the storyline had run it's course, the main one, I know he won't be getting over what happened. I wanted to watch all together cause I get a little obsessed sometimes. But I was only able to hold out 2 weeks. Ben is breaking my heart.
lol, I tried to do the same thing...didn't work
I've watched it but not the actual rape scene, Max is just a little too good of an actor for me to handle it. Prob won't ever watch it.
I love the acting he's amazing 💞🥺🥺
And so it begins
Danmit Ben did it again
This performance was amazing
Oh man. Every time. I’ve watched this scene a few times now and it gets me every time. Thank you Zebra for posting. It’s always a wait for me because im in the states so every time you post, I get thrilled.
You’re very welcome 😊
Max Bowden better get an award for this! Proper good acting here well done ❤❤ as for Kathy I I she would just shut up
Amazing acting
When a person goes through this much trauma.
This hurts 💔
His acting skills wooow so good
Wow. Max nailed this
MAX BOWDEN = AMAZING 👏 👏👏👏
He's really brilliant 👍👏
@@angelaholmes8888 absolute rockstar
this was ben finally standing up and saying it's not my fault i don't want to keep being blamed for my own rape
credits to max bowden, an amazing actor, and the best ben mitchell!
I've never cried watching Eastenders but when Ben said no ... he had sex with me, my tears were flowing
He couldn’t hold it in any longer he had to tell someone
Yeah this scene is hard to watch
**heartfelt and genuinely sad scene**
The music at the end: 💃💃🕺🕺🕺💃💃🕺💃💃💃🕺🕺
It makes me so sad to see him cry and be this sad, it breaks my heart to see him like that 💔
Amazing actor Ben is.
That was hard to watch. Such an important scene
" SHUT UP" Ben 😭😭😭
Me: Arr Ben just say it!
Ben tells Kathy
Me: oh thank heavens for that 🙏
Great acting very delicate yet powerful. On the other hand about the character this is very very disturbing rape is rape regardless of gender hope he gets help in the show
wtf get help
Max's acting is really amazing!
What an actor tho
im sitting here bawling my eyes out
A well-acted scene!!! Now get all the EastEnders crew together and bring Lewis down!!!
I know how he feels I was rapid too .
0:06 The tear 👏🏾👏🏾
Ben😭
Até que enfim ele está contando para alguém que foi molestado sexualmente pelo Louis. Grade atuação de Max.
Omg he needs his Callum. He needs daddy 😭😭😭
No man is afraid to cry in front of his mom or tell her anything.

sobbing so hard right now..... such a horrible thing heart breaking
With this Lilly storyline I realized all the people who have been sexually assaulted on the Square. Kathy, Ben, Stacey, Kat, Linda.
Whitney, and at one point we would've included Linda's husband Mick
there are so many people who would have been a great confidante for Ben

This cracked me up honestly, spot on
Max bowden is a amazing but play this may me so sad story line with what he did and Kathy's is a amazing actor 2 help her son ben
🤯🤯🤯
Hmmm.
life is so funny. one single action can change everything. If not for a text w a pic of Cal and his daughter, Ben would have had great consensual sex w Lewis and enjoyed it. Then the entire storyline would be how guilty Ben feels. What a cad he is, blah blah blah. He still would have had the STI and probably given it to Cal.
Kathy was not being judgmental just stating the facts as she understood them since Ben wasn't talking.
Cause it was cheating up to the point when the text came in.
No matter what happened leading up to the assault, Ben said no and Lewis should have listened.
That kathy were indeed being judgemental. Rather. I myself am rightly Anti lbtq. *
Ben Mitchell. Connor birthday happy 😃 day spa sweet Doritos
His acting is not good.
Oh shut up
Go check your ear,brain and eyes thats all related...trust me you've got medicine help 🤣
😅
I'm angry with Kathy for this how did she not recognize how bad Ben was broken given that she was also a victim of rape
