How the hell is this dog-end of a show still running?  And how the HELL does it keep winning 'best soap?'  It's SHYTE!  The storylines are ridiculous and absurd, and they are dragging back characters that were a waste of space to begin with!

Bringing back KAT SLATER has finished it off for me.  I can't STAND the stupid mahogany faced slapper.  Jessie Wallace is a massive over-actor, and the programme just gets worse by the minute. All I have heard since KAT came back is shouting and screaming!  It's doing my head in!!!   I had been watching it sometimes, when there is nothing else on, in the hope it will improve, but I am finished now!  And now Alfie has bought the VIC, KAT is here to STAY! 

This programme is SHYTE!  After 25 years, I am officially done with it.

I stopped watching  Eastenders regularly years ago, although I will dip in to it every now and then, I watched the other week just to see the Queen Vic go up in flames.

As for Jessie Wallace, I agree with what you are saying with regards to her in Eastenders, but I thought she was great as Pat Pheonix in 'The Road to Coronation Street'.

Love Eastenders, it rightly wins the awards IMO and i'm glad Kat is back, as for Alfie meh sometimes I like him then I don't.. going to miss Stacey, Jean and Charlie when they go though.


The character of Ronnie was designed by the  storyliners, scriptwriters and producers to be miserable and have lots of bad fortune just like how Roxy was created to be the supposed fun one to bail out of trouble.

Her acting is dire, though. I've heard barely any emotion in her voice all the time she's been in it and considering the stuff that's been thrown at her character you'd think she'd be a bit more expressive. It's like watching driftwood when she's on the screen.

Ronnie has always been cold and controlling, Suzy Branning got it spot on when she called Ronnie vinegar lips. Kat made me LOL yesterday also with the Bananarama line to Roxy.

I think Ronnie is a fab character and I think Samantha Womak plays her fantastically. The whole point of her is that she's numbed to everything around her. Her abuse by her dad, getting pregnant, having to give the baby up and still live with her abuser, constantly having to look out for her younger sister. She's numbed to the world. It's not uncommon

I didn't know who she was and still don't really According to IMDB she's had a lot of bit parts here and there and was in Easties previously. I know her face but I can't remember her on the tele IYKWIM

Cathy Murphy (born 7 August 1967) is a British actress. She played recurring role of Trisha Taylor,the mother of Leo, who fathered Demi Miller's baby.  in soap opera EastEnders. She had earlier played the ongoing role of Cheryl Barker in serial Family Affairs for one year.

Cathy first showed her professionalism while performing in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie at the Kenneth Moore Theatre in circa 1980/1981. Cathy, her sister Elaine, Sue Patten, Gill Patten, Lois Prior & Sarah Thompson were appearing as 'school girls'. Due to noisy high spirits in the green room the girls missed one of their most important cues. Cathy was the only one to keep her head and stay in role as they rushed on to the stage.

I never watch that shit, I gave up right when Dirty Den got killed for the second time. When a cast-iron scottie dog steals the scene, you know it's time to quit.
I've caught snatches of it on previews or when I'm waiting for something else on BBC1 and it's still the same - knuckle-headed blokes and hatchet-faced women, all bawling at each other and all looking like they could do with a good wash. And none of them - even the 'posh' ones - own a washing machine, so it's down to the laundrette...
If the BBC seriously want to save money (as the Con-Dems are telling them they have to), they should scrap this rubbish, and stop paying third rate actors premier league wages.

I gave up watching EE many moons ago however, I can't imagine it being half as bad as the two progs that have stickies ^^^^^^^^ They are absolute dross IMO.
I don't watch those either. Strictly I gave up on when they axed a trained dance instructor and choreographer (Arlene) in favour of a gifted amateur (Alesha). Although the John Segeant fiasco had pretty much finished it off for me anyway and I'm glad it did, because apparently a similarly untalented (but popular) BBC presenter won it last year.
I thought it was about who was BEST?
