This is random but I was looking at the history of TV ratings and I found this..

List of most watched TV episodes of all time:

1. Eastenders - Den serves Angie divorce papers - 1986 - 30.15million

7. Eastenders - ?? - Jan 7th - 1988 - 24.15 million
10. Eastenders - Dec 26th - 1985 - 23.55 million

The absolute domination, 5 of the 10 most watched episodes OF ALL TIME were Eastenders episodes.

This doesn't include movies and special events, but if we add those in...

2. Princess Diana Funeral - 1997 - 32.10 million
3. Royal Family (Documentary) - 1969 - 30.69 million

Queen of the 80's, Madonna and Janet who?

[Cupid]

Daniella (from CBB) will reprise her role as Sam later in the year, but only as a guest appearance.
I guess this confirms she won't be coming back for Peggy's death, since she said later in the year?

Apparently she's been offered a role on a rival soap which she's considering taking (Hollyoaks).

Also I wonder who that new girl is, who Jay was flirting with... hmm..

[J a y]

I'm wondering who this girl talking to Jay is.

[Cupid]

Max has been confirmed to return in September

The guy who plays him is so annoying, there's a video of him doing an interview and he's like "oh you still watch that? I haven't watched a single episode since I left." And then talking about his last episode he said "I thought it was stupid but oh well it's Eastenders ain't it". And then the interviewer said he could fill him in on what's been happening and he laughed and said no.

He needs to be more grateful, what an ass.

Babe and Abi's sudden friendship

[aayAlex]

Abi is a damn mess!

[Daydream]

Inb4 Denise and Jordan start ****ing.

[RihRihRoman]

Pam and Les' storyline still makes me giggle a bit. Pam not wanting to give up where she gets her clothes from

[Cupid]

Johnny Carter is coming back near the end of the year!

New actor though (I'll miss you Sam my bae)

The new guy is hot though



Apparently will have some big storylines.

[B'Day]

What's the big deal about Angie and Den's divorce papers?
And yeah, Jay's mysterious girl seems interesting af

[Buyonce1814]

I can't stand Les. I hate Babe too.

Jays new girl was in Tracy Beaker returns/The Dumping Ground wasn't she?

Yep. I can't see her as anything other than that whiny little girl she played

[aayAlex]

Can't wait for that Ben/Paul/Johnny love triangle

Abi and Babe are both awful together. Gosh I want them to die. Pathetic bitches.

Jay's new girlfriend is obviously underage.

It was a huge twist, and they were both hugely iconic characters.

Angie was an alcoholic, Den had a mistress, Angie started having an affair to get revenge, but her affair ended when Den said he didn't care. Then Den had a daughter with the mistress, Angie was so mad she started having another affair, but Den caught her in bed with the guy, and told Angie the marriage was over.

She tells him he can't leave because she's dying and only has 6 months to live. He feels so guilty so he decided to stay with her, they spend a few months living happily, until Den overhears her confessing her lie about dying. Then boom, on Xmas day he clapbacks her and serves her divorce papers.

Iconic.

If the huge storyline they've been teasing for Jay is that he's dating a minor i will riot

Well Paul and Ben aren't going to last long if Jonny is coming back.. The new actor isn't as cute but I hope they can at least act.

[aayAlex]

DTC definitely had his highs (Lucy's death, Shabnam's stillbirth, Linda's rape, Stacey's psychosis) but lord! His lows were atrocious.

At least he's about to add another iconic storyline to his belt; Peggy's death.

And like I said, the Ben/Paul/Johnny love triangle is inevitable at this point.

[RihRihRoman]

i find it repulsive that literally every gay person on the show gets together
