I have watched probably around 15-20 minutes of EastEnders in about 25 years. That was plenty (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I had to endure an episode once when I was staying with a friend's family; courtesy won the day I'm afraid. In exchange for a lift home once, a colleague requested that I watch Emmerdale and report back the following day. Pre-iplayer days, she hadn't set the video and wouldn't have got home in time to watch it. I had never watched an episode (and haven't since) but it was a trial to recall unfamiliar names and relationships that were otherwise unknown to me. I've never remembered any of it! Next time I think I'd consider walking instead! |

QUOTE(Bobilleg74 @ Feb 17 2010, 03:52 PM) The live episode this Friday will reveal who killed Archie Mitchell on Christmas Day. Personally, I couldn't care less, but am aware of it because my wife watches! One thing that I can't work out is this: The cast don't know who did it, and won't know until Friday. However, they film Eastenders months in advance so, surely, the story line of one character will have given it away to the cast already? Apparently they've rehearsed every possible ending and on Friday only the murderer will be told that they killed Archie before the live show. It will be a surprise for the rest of the cast.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Car Expert It is a live transmission, i.e. we're seeing it as it happens. There's no editing process and things can (and probably will) go wrong. I remember a live Bill episode a few years ago where part of the set fell down and you could see the actors trying not to laugh! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Quite a few shows have done this. I think it at the turn of the millennium that Coronation Street did a live episode to 'Save our Street' when they wanted to tarmac over the cobbles. Also, Will and Grace did two live episodes one in season 6 and the other in season 8...You could tell that the cast just wanted to laugh at each other and the jokes, which in turn made it even funnier for the viewer. |

Don't know who Archie Mitchell was either and doubt that I ever will. What amazes me is how well some of the minor soaps do at National TV awards. I have never watched Hollyoaks either. |

I really can't be bothered with soaps (or TV for that matter). I get all the entertainment I want from music (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I'm from Walthamstow, which is North East London and my parents are from Hackney, born and bred. Although I haven't lived there for about 15 years and things may have changed, I don't remember people being as nasty as they all seem to be on Eastenders.
I do watch it occasionally as I now live in Turkey and it's shown here on BBC Entertainment. |
