EastEnders fans confused after messy error on BBC soap

It comes as the BBC soap showed Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) discussing a 'sweet 16' party for his daughter Avani Nandra-Hart (Aaliyah James), who is set to celebrate her birthday soon. In the scene, Avani was also joined by her older brother Davinder 'Nugget' Gulati (Juhaim Rasul Choudhury), and he recommended the siblings start inviting friends ahead of the celebrations. Avani then told Ravi: "Dad, I'm only 16 once y'know?" 8 Most Iconic British Soap Characters of All Time But her brother then implied he will be turning 18 soon, as he said: "And my 18th ain't far away. I've got to celebrate that too." EastEnders fans 'confused' after 'messy' error on BBC soap However, Nugget's comment has left many viewers puzzled by his real age, as they thought he was only due to turn 17 soon. Someone wrote on X, formerly Twitter: 'So confused about the age gap between Nugget & Avani? He's meant to be born in Sept 2008 & her in July 2009 (making them Irish twins, born 10 months apart). But he reckons he's 18 soon & yet is in the same class as Denzel who said he was 17 soon (October)? Help! #EastEnders' One responded: 'He would be 17 in September 18 next year, my son was born Jan 09 and he is now 16 1/2. I hate when tv programs and films don't follow through with continuity, it's just messy and lazy!' Here is our schedule for this week's #EastEnders. See you on Wednesday for double trouble! Psst.... if you can't wait that long, remember that EastEnders also drops on @iPlayer at 6am, Monday to Thursday. 🙌 — BBC EastEnders (@bbceastenders) July 7, 2025 This viewer commented: 'Apparently nugget is 16 and is going to be 17 in September but he's saying that he's turning 18 so I'm confused about that too.' Another posted: 'Nugget is nearly 18? Why is he still in school ? #eastenders' Meanwhile, this X account chimed in: 'I think they've given up on continuity with the ages of these 2.' But others argued: 'It's probably just a mistake however he could be saying that because 18 is the bigger birthday because 16, 18 and 21 are seen as bigger milestone birthdays than those in between so those birthdays are more likely to have the big party that they are talking about.' Recommended reading: Additionally, some noted it's not the first time characters' ages have suddenly changed, as a fan put: 'It's just tradition. Sharon was 13 in 1985 and 17 in 1986.' A social media profile replied: 'Fondly remembering when Ian's birth year quietly got shifted from 1970 to 1969…' Did you notice this EastEnders blunder earlier this week or did you think Nugget's comments about his 18th birthday made sense? Let us know in the comments.

EastEnders fans spot major Nugget 'blunder' and tell soap to 'sort out' issue

EastEnders viewers reacted to a scene that aired this week which saw characters Nugget Gulati and Avani Nandra-Hart approach their dad Ravi Gulati about a birthday party Fans of EastEnders have shared confusion over a scene that aired this week, suggesting that it included a blunder. It featured some of the Panesar family and comes ahead of a special occasion set to take place this month. The scene in tonight's episode of the BBC show saw Ravi Gulati (played by Aaron Thiara) approached about organising a 'sweet sixteen' party for his daughter Avani Nandra-Hart (Aaliyah James). She's set to celebrate her 16th birthday later this month with some of her friends on Albert Square. ‌ ‌ She was joined by her older brother Davinder 'Nugget' Gulati (Juhaim Rasul Choudhury) whilst asking their father about planning a party. Nugget suggested in the scene that the siblings start inviting friends ahead of the event. Encouraging Ravi to let them go ahead with their plans, Avani told him: "Dad, I'm only 16 once y'know?" Nugget then suggested that he will instead be turning 18 soon, saying: "And my 18th ain't far away. I've got to celebrate that too." Following the episode's early release on BBC iPlayer on Monday, some fans on X have raised questions about the ages referenced in the scene. It's been suggested by viewers that Nugget is thought to be 16 at the moment. ‌ It would mean that he turns 17 on his next birthday, with his 18th then not until next year. His pal Denzel Danes (Jaden Ladega), who is thought to be in the same school year, is himself turning 17 "soon", as mentioned just last month. One viewer wrote: "So confused about the age gap between Nugget & Avani? He's meant to be born in Sept 2008 & her in July 2009 (making them Irish twins, born 10 months apart). But he reckons he's 18 soon & yet is in the same class as Denzel who said he was 17 soon (October)? Help!" They added in a second post: "Also why are they in uniform if they've both just finished their GCSE exams last month? They'd be off school for the summer by now. Sort out your continuity fails #EastEnders, pedants are watching!" ‌ The post prompted reaction following the release of the episode earlier this week. Some other viewers shared their thoughts in replies. Someone responded: "I think they've given up on continuity with the ages of these 2." Another said: "Apparently Nugget is 16 and is going to be 17 in September but he's saying that he's turning 18 so I'm confused about that too." One person wrote on the platform this week: "He would be 17 in September 18 next year, my son was born Jan 09 and he is now 16 1/2. I hate when tv programs and films don't follow through with continuity, it's just messy and lazy!" ‌ Others suggested that it wouldn't be the first time that a character's age has been altered. One fan said: "It's just tradition. Sharon was 13 in 1985 and 17 in 1986." Whilst another wrote: "They also upped Ian's age too I believe." EastEnders continues tomorrow from 7pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer. The next episode is already available through the streaming platform.

Nuggets' 2026 NBA title odds soar after big offseason moves

Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Oddsmakers are taking notice of the Nuggets. After falling to the eventual NBA champion Thunder in seven games during the semifinal round, Denver has positioned itself as one of the top contenders for the 2026 title. After a bevy of shrewd moves, the Nuggets jumped from +1600 odds before free agency to +700 to win it all next season, which is the second-best mark at BetMGM Sportsbook. 'We love what the Nuggets did,' BetMGM trading manager Hal Egeland said in a statement. 'Every move they've made has been smart. The Nuggets are our most-bet team since free agency started.' Cam Johnson will play for the Nuggets this upcoming season. JASON SZENES/ NY POST The Nuggets biggest move thus far this summer was a trade that sent Michael Porter Jr. and a 2032 first-round pick to the Nets in exchange for Cam Johnson, improving the team defensively without giving up much offensively. That deal cleared enough cap space to allow Denver to sign former Nugget Bruce Brown and sharpshooter Tim Hardaway Jr. to free agent deals. The franchise also traded for big man Jonas Valanciunas, although he may leave the NBA to play in Greece. Oklahoma City, which is a +275 favorite to repeat as champions, is still the class of the league, but Denver is arguably better suited to compete with them next season than it was with its thin rotation during this past playoff run. The Nuggets have an older roster, so it's probably wise to stay away from their regular season win total. Betting on the NBA? But once playoff time comes, the suddenly-deep Nikola Jokic and Co. are as sure of a playoff team as any. Take a flier on Denver to win the second title of the Jokic era.

Nuggets lead at every break until Airs finally take control

Jonathan Janssen. PHOTO: GREGOR RICHARDSON The Otago Nuggets lost 93-83 to the Taranaki Airs in New Plymouth last night. The Nuggets led at every break — by as much as 11 — until the Airs took a 65-64 lead early in the fourth quarter. A scuffle erupted between Jack Exeter and Josh Aitcheson, leading to both players being ejected. Craig Moller came up with some big shots for the Airs late to lead 87-82 and they powered home from there. It was another frustrating end for the Nuggets, who kept the third-placed Airs quiet through the opening half. Jonathan Janssen stepped up for the Nuggets without import Don Carey jun. The centre finished with a double of 19 points and 11 rebounds and Jaylen Seebree scored 24 points. Carlin Davison finished with 25 points and 10 rebounds for the Airs. The Nuggets had a strong start. But Davison found his way through to finish off and the Airs trailed 16-15. He then fired in back-to-back balls that former Nugget Jack Andrew finished off at the hoop. Christian Martin then banged down consecutive triples to keep the Nuggets in front 26-21 at the break. The Nuggets cleaned up the Airs' turnovers and suddenly held a 32-23 lead. Davison still managed to weave through and was aggressive to the hoop. Dominique Kelman-Polo came into the game for the Airs. He used his size in the paint. Janssen finished off from down low to reinstate a nine-point lead for the Nuggets. Missed free throws hurt the Airs, but Deng Dut nailed a triple for the Airs trailed 48-44 at halftime. Janssen attacked the bucket to help the Nuggets to an 11-point lead. The big man was prolific for the Nuggets in the paint. Scott Telfer held his ground as Caleb Smiler came steaming into the hoop and was called for the charging foul. Janssen then coughed up a charging foul and Sebree was called for travelling as the momentum began to change. They closed it to 61-58 when Mac Stodart shrugged off his defender to drain a triple for the Nuggets to lead 64-62 at the break. The Nuggets won the Rapid League game 51-49. They meet the Manawatu Jets tomorrow. NBL The scores Taranaki Airs 93 Carlin Davison 25, Craig Moller 24, Otago Nuggets 83 Jaylen Seebree 24, Jonathan Janssen 19 Quarter scores: Nuggets 26-21, 48-44, 64-62.
