Don't usually watch this but what the hell has happened to this show....? Yesterday they had for the first couple of mins just music whilst the cast did various things... it was like an older version of Hollyoaks... the show has declined or what?!

The thing that gets me is that, when walking through the newsagents all the womens and tv mags constantly have the Ginger/Slapper "Will they won't they" on the cover and have done continuously for years.

How can people watch literally the same story happen over and over again?

it's right. it's the same old shit. somebody dies, everybody rules themself in as a suspect. elsewhere somebody yells at somebody else, who then breaks down in a corner and cries. meanwhile, nobody in the entire square has still managed to buy a washing machine yet and max continues to swan around on his phone, even though nobody has ever seen him do a day's work.

They should send out subliminal messages throughout Eastenders/Corrie/Hollyoaks/Emmerdale that makes everybody watching it go out into their kitchen, open the draw, pull out the sharpest knife they can find and slice their own throats open.

Apparently we find out who the killer is in a special 25th Anniversary Live episode, where the actor is told only ten minutes before it airs.

And apparently Bradley is going to kill himself as well.

Used to watch it years ago, now I look back and think what the hell? Stupid story lines, repeated over and over. Must have the highest murder rate, rape and assault figures this side of Europe. It's kept many a "Z list celebrity" employed over the years. Time to do away with that Corrie and the rest. Shite!

I can't stand this show, everytime I see it it's just cockneys shouting at each other, its very very annoying. And they're all gangsters or criminals but it's ok cos they laaaave their old ma...utter bollocks.

Sorry to buck the trend, but I love it. Did my head in until about a year ago and since then I've been hooked. Coronation Street is better at forming rounded characters from the bits I've seen, but EE is better at building storylines and the actual dialogue of important scenes....imo. All soaps rehash storylines, it's a 4/5 episodes a week, 52 weeks a year output!! Sometimes it gets boring, but other times includes good twists.

You're likely to find it much more boring if you just flick on having not actually followed the build up!!

The one thing I actually respect about the programme is the fact it is brave enough to take on controversial and challenging storylines. Contrary to popular belief, it's not just done for ratings. Charities get involved and actually ask soaps to cover certain things. Thankfully EE tend to research properly. Since the paedophilia storyline there has been a spike in Childline calls, as people recognised the situation of the character and came forward to say that the same thing was happening to them. Since the Bi Polar storyline, the amount of Bi Polar diagnoses has doubled in this country. The domestic abuse storyine years ago had a massive impact as well.

They do shout way too much though and thankfully someoone saw sense and stopped the gangster crap.

I better hope for my sake that your subliminal messages never happen Garstonite! Will put on a tin hat and wait for abuse over my support for EE!! :)
Above all else comes truth & justice.

The Eastend , a world where The Vic's landlord knows you have raped and shagged his 'pwincess' daughter up the arse , is certain you tied up and gagged his wife then proceeded to bludgeon her about the head with a Morphy Richards iron before picking his safe and stealing the takings from the arches , is aware you groomed and bummed his son , is conviced you planted a gun and 'dwugs' in The Vic just before the 'ole bill' arrived , is satisfied it was you who pierced his new coffee jar lid with your cock , is in no doubt you left the immersion on all fuckin day ..... yet you can still get served a pint in his ale house ?

The landlord slamming your change on the bar is the only hostility you'll recieve never mind being barred , maybe a few daggers from the regulars perhaps ? In fact you can taunt the landlord who's life you've ruined by leaning against the bar sniggering at him while cuddling your pint only for a few locals to grunt at the landlord ' leave it .. he's not worf it '  Then when you leave it's mandatory for someone in the pub to utter ' The nerve ..he's gottit cammin he has , make no mistake '

Once Peggy hears you've been in for a bevie you're fucked. It's obligatory she clears everyone out the pub early and locks up ' Go on ..haven't yer got homes to go to ' Then screws her face up and states menacingly ' Wait twill Gwarnt n Phil ear abar dis '  She's then staight on the 'dog n bone ' to Phil .... then the door opens .... and out of the blue in wanders Gwarnt wearing the only facial expresion he's capable of wearing , confused / angry. Doubtless confused as to why he still wears leather bomber jackets several sizes too small the portly dense fuckin twat. The telepathic gobshite always turning up when his mum is in ' a spot a bover'  whodda fought!

' Everyfins ok mum ..I'm here now. Gerron the blower , get Phil darn ere '

Why what's he going to do Gwarnt ? Fuckin pummel me with his inhaler the fat wheezing c*nt.

' Gwarnt son , werve yer bin , last we herd you were racing ostritches in Mozambique and had shacked up wiv the gwandaughter of the inventa of the clockwork wadio , wasis name..Twevor Bayliss, an he wanted you to invest all yer savings in a bloomin injector seat or sumink , you tell im that I'm not lettin you go near no ejector bleedin seat , jetisoned fwom a cockpit a twenny farzand feet , well it aint right is it lav , for goodness sake.  Anyway , how ave yer bin son ? '

Ohh fuck off.

Enter random stranger / down-and-out / drifter / tramp. Most normal people if approached by a weird outsider would fuck em right off. Not the good old Eastend though. It is binding that the constant arrival of complete strangers are immediately given a room upstairs in The Vic and offered a job in The Arches ( start in the morning ) Fortunate for Phil the strangers are often ex F1 Maclaren mechanics before they decided to wander the streets of Walford stinking of piss. Consequently the new mechanic / car-lot owner will punch above his weight by goosing a more attractive cast member and later realise and feel compelled to confess in a Christmas episode to being her father , or accidentaly running her over , or accidentaly shooting her.

Oddly all denizens of Walford appear to be able to phone their solicitor ( bweef ) any time of fuckin day for the most innocuous events without even considering the chiseling bastards probably demanding the going rate of £170.00 p/h. Very bizzare bearing in mind the cockney c*nts are always skint and living in dingy shitholes.

Least memorable for me was Sonia's girl-on-girl escapade , put me off lezzers for life. I was content throwing meself around the bedroom after leering over 46 year old women dressed as cheerleaders shoving their twirling batons up each others fannies until I witnessed that special faced lisping boss eyed goon kissing another woman. I emailed my objection to the BBC. Weighing up the cost of the TV licence and that filming an episode that featured a woman who drinks from both taps could they not have splurged more money on a more attractive / slimmer non lisping actress in Eastenders instead of that bowl headed, corpulent, fried egg titted, fat arsed rasberry blowing unbearable fuckin gorp.  Still waiting for a reply ?

They all seem to have a compulsion to air their dirty laundry in the middle of a fuckin packed pub. I bet when the bastards are about to have a blazing row at home they say ' Right get yer coat , we're gunna sort dis out once an forall in the lounge of da Vic ' the gormless fuckin nob-eads. Likely a resident won't last a month without being set-up , shot , blackmailed , burgled , house torched , mugged or raped but all seem content to reside in the fuckin cursed dump despite the fact most normal people would get the hint and fuckin move. Mind you , being shot or mugged is an improvement from having to circulate for any length of time among that throng of cockney fuckin dick heads. A week in intensive care recovering from being shot must feel like a Spa break away from Walford. No witnessing emaciated Billy trying to flog a few bananas from his stall or clocking the skeletal c*nt throwing a free apple to a young scamp , then winking at him and saying ' go on yer little bleeder '  No more having your retinas engrained with the sight of the worst clobber in the world on Stacy's stall. In my world I imagine that guys step out of there old prams and go-karts then come to life for one day on November the 5th. Stacy shouts at a few alive fuckin ragged one armed blind teddy bear guys who happen to walk past her stall that day.

' Ere you go lads , latest jumpers six quid , com'on gerrum while you can '

Guy - ' Fuck off yer slut , wouldn't be seen fuckin dead init '

DAH DAH DAH DAH DAH DAH DAH ... DAH DAH DAH DAH DAH DAH....DAH DAH DAH DA

What makes me laugh about these soaps is that no-one has a normal job. No-one works in a warehouse 10 miles away or comes home from a 12 hour shift in a call-centre.
 They all own the local pub/club/garage/corner shop or appear to do fuck all.

They should send out subliminal messages throughout Eastenders/Corrie/Hollyoaks/Emmerdale that makes everybody watching it go out into their kitchen, open the draw, pull out the sharpest knife they can find and slice their own throats open.

To be fair to Eastenders, it is a soap opera, so its going to be a bit silly, cheap and ridiculous plenty of times. But overall we are in a way lucky because the soap opera's in this country are better than almost anywhere. Just watch a number of American soap opera's and you will see what I mean.

I also think soap opera's in general in the UK have done brilliantly in highlighting some really key issues and storylines. Eastenders may seem a bit silly but I am glad that we have it.
