@jasonmohammad @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer A rare example of putting the team's season ahead of pure money. Financially it was a terrible decision not to sell Guehi. But Palace are 4th, in the QF of League Cup and every chance of going deep in Europe. What price the chance of another memorable campaign?

@bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer Elaine is right about Jasmine and she’s got her well and truly sussed. Cindy really should listen to Elaine and take her advice as should be really worried - Jasmine has been in her home and whoever Jasmine is working for, Cindy is in big trouble. #Eastenders
