Eastenders

Re: Eastenders

wot a waste....!

I agree with you - the programme is a waste of licence fee payer's money. I never watch it because I just cannot relate to the sour cockney flavour of the series.

I always blame the series for the main dumbing down British television since the mid 1980s - perhaps Coronation Street and Emmerdale would still be only on twice a week if the BBC and ITV never had that "how many episodes can we show a week" auction in 1990s and 2000s. Keep it in London, that's what I say!

Re: Eastenders

Never mind it kicking off, I cannot wait for the final whistle.

[silverbirch]

when did it kick off.... 1985 ?
still going in 2020 but with a fraction of the viewers back in the 80s

Lots of Eastender babes over the years....

Daniella Westbrook
Nicola Stapleton
Shirley Cheriton
Patsy Palmer
Michelle Collins
but no attempt to make them look glam on screen... instead everything had to
be grubby and street cred.... everyone walking about in anoracs and jeans

wot a waste....!
