I reckon Lauren might survive but ‘go away’ for a bit as the actress was clearly pregnant earlier in the year. New top brass wants to cut the dead wood apparently and Abi is the definition of dead wood.

Apparently they have both been sacked so are properly leaving. But I feel like Lauren will survive and go to Glasgow and never be seen again.

Billy Mitchell is going to be busy.

Even if the Brannings leave the Square completely, Lauren still has a Beale baby so they have an easy way to bring her back if they need it.

in 2007 Phil's lawyer girlfriend is manipulating Ben and engaged to Phil now

Losing her virginity to the son of his arch enemy Steve Owen who set it up to ensure it was on CCTV that Phil would see and pulling knowing faces at the camera throughout, no less.

Ein cooler Typ, I share in your pain and have been checking in on the decade old PBS reruns whenever my Sunday nights allow me (Finally in HD! Or 16:9 at the very least.) It is super frustrating because my local station's programming guide just says "Share in the latest episode of BBC's premiere dramatic series" for every single episode so I have no idea where the hell I am in regards to time unless there's some holiday occurring in the background. It also means searching for any character or plot to figure out where I am results in me finding out literally everything that has happened in the ensuing decade (i.e., I wanted to know "Why is Phil's terrible son pissing his pants" and just Googling "Ben Mitchell Eastenders" laid bare to me all the details of his coming out and murdering and that he had apparently just left the show, again.)

The episodes that aired last week on PBS here (in North Carolina, I think a lot of states don't even run it anymore) were from 18/19 May 2007 http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/tv/soaps/eastenders/eastenders-34698.html

We finally got the Big Story and it lasted all of one episode.

I have a lot of problems with the whole Rob/Dawn/May arc...most of which boils down to Rob being a barmy geezer possessing sex appeal of biscuit with two shits inside, who shouldn't be able to pull either of these birds from very different ends of the class spectrum.

The origin story of EastEnders is coming back to telly this summer.

UKTV has shared some big news for soap fans by confirming to Digital Spy that the Albert Square soap will re-air from the beginning on the Drama channel throughout August.



sounds like they're just showing 1985 episodes for a limited time only not re-airing all 30 years?

That’s a shame. I’d torrent them all but that seems a big effort.

The 1986 episodes are now on TV in the UK and are unrelentingly grim. Even by EE standards. Since most of London has been heavily gentrified now, I forgot how crappy many areas used to be. Plus it’s back when massive numbers of people were unemployed.

I’m jealous you get to watch the Stella episodes. She was great.
