Gillian Wright was incredible with this bipolar storyline👏👏👏👏
Having her on the rollercoaster was such a good metaphor.
This episode broke my GD heart! So well played.
Comedy gold more like
Jean happily laughing on the Southend Rollercoaster was a very clever but subtle meaning from the writers. At a first glace you automatically think its Jean being completely innocent and getting in touch with her childish side by enjoying herself in the rollercoaster. If you look at the rollercoaster scene again you soon realise it was pointing towards a much deeper meaning about her bipolar condition and the way it makes her. The rollercoaster is all about her uncontrollable and unstable emotions left untreated or without professional help from a doctor or a psychiatrist.
Great to learn about this
Huge fan of Gillian wright who plays Jean and love the character of Jean on Eastenders x
Down at Southend on the pier - nearly the exact same spot the Fowlers went searching for Mark all those years ago.
I have bipolar
Believe me it's difficult.
What about Tripolar that’s an adventure I tell ya
The pier at Southend - the exact spot where the Fowlers west searching for Mark all them years ago.
Love you Eastenders ❤
Love you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Ronan sweet heart xxxxxxxx
I love Jean and I love Gillian Wright Amazing Actress she breaks my heart whatever she does 😢
What about when she makes a sausage surprise 😂
Lily is so good with Jean
Love you guys!
I have someone close to me who has bipolar and Gillian and Lacey are botn amazing. I go quite manic if im very nervous. I was concerned about it but the Doctors say its more of a shyness/antisocial thing
Love you ❤❤❤❤❤ Ronan sweet heart xxxxxxxx
Very painful to watch bipolar seems like hell for the poor sufferers my heart breaks for Jean 💔💔😞😞hospital care is vital as it can get so out of control as she put herself in very harmful situations as her illness progressed poor lady 😞😞
This might look funny but it’s deep
Where ever I watch this there's always that part of me that wishes people left jean alone because even though her bipolar is out of control at the same time she just looks so happy but I always have to remind myself that even though she look and maybe even is truly happy that dosent mean she still dosent need help from her friends and family
I have someone close to me like this
She comes across like she's so happy but I know it's mania. And eventually she comes crashing down and you learn to see the signs. She seems like Tigger then turns into Eeyore. The only way I can describe it. I hate her upset afterwards when she realises how ill she has been. Gillian is a brilliant actor. The way she turns on Stacey is normal too
@@christinebrett4825 thank you for sharing that even though I cannot relate to what you've experienced it sounds like your friend has people who really care for her and that they are clearly in good hands
@@clamantstone she is family to me. Thank you x
i cant watch any episodes in Canada BC. My channel Vision stopped showing them. and then i couldnt find the ones i have missed.
This was ages ago.
Hi
Jean has been a nutter since she came on the show. Back when her hair was brown & Bianca & Pat were still on the show. How are we still dealing with her not seeing a doctor on the reg or upping her meds in 2022?
Mentally ill you mean nutter is more off an insult mate that's not fair is it grow up Samantha darling
I've come here today, to rewatch this. EE has been so boring recently for me, i'm not too interested in the other storylines. as commenting, we haven't seen stacey, much of jean, theo, denise, eve, jack for like 5 weeks - i assume stacey's storyline is paused while bobby (freddie) is on strictly? I'd actually love to see if EE's viewing stats have declined both on iplayer + TV .
Bye-bye!
This was a while ago’
My beautiful launderette.
I don’t see how giving your mums partner advice not to marry her is helping her - I understand that Jean is not well with her bipolar but mentally sick people still deserve to have relationships and not be single for the rest of their lives- that’s part of their human rights & their disability rights
It was more about not marrying her while she was spiralling
it would be classed as harvey taking advantage due to jean’s mental state , therefore, stacey was protecting harvey and jean from scrutiny.
Sausage surprise 😂
Me on the vodka 😂😂
It’s not funny.
Stacey got better looking with age
😅😅
Stacey is so mouthy.
I can't help but find Stacey even more annoying
Sick and tired of them losing their marbles every minute
Well, that’s how bipolar works. Till you or someone you know experiences it, keep your trap shut.
@@tokublwhovian well said. It’s sad how people are so uneducated on these things.
@@tokublwhovian Except this is a Tv show mate, not everybody wants to have mental illnesses shoved down their throat every other minute.. life is depressing enough!! Eastenders survived without it in the 90s and 80s
@@Ltforlife22 Soap operas are meant to be realistic at times, so if you don’t like it - watch something else, “mate”.
@@tokublwhovianhe’s entitled to his opinion
Lola was the only one not over reacting like the snowflakes of today . When Arthur said Aunty Jean did it, she just brushed it off how it should be. Kids now are so wishy washy
