“Terrible Beyond Belief”

★★★★★

written by Harperae58 on 26/05/2023

Can't believe this is the same programme that started in 1985. Back then it at least tried to reflect some sort of reality and was full of warm, relatable characters going about their everyday lives. It's now 2023 and what do we get? We get characters that are pregnant at 12 years old and everyone just carries on like it's normal. People making money flashing their bits online and everyone carries on like it's normal and nothing to be that bothered about. It's full of unlawful who are walking about and the programme expecting us to forget this because the characters have "issues". Oh, and characters reappearing years after their supposed deaths. It's a laughable, tragic fantasy and about as realistic as a Disney cartoon. Utter trash. Would give it 0 stars if that was possible. The actors are third rate as well.

“Needs more extras”

★★★★☆

written by Megan333 on 24/05/2023

I am writing to complain about seeing the same 'extra' over and over in the market scenes. The lady is Chinese and appears so many times, we now point her out in nearly every scene. Is Eastenders short of extras as this is not realistic Not a major complaint but it is annoying and spoiling the show. From a long time Eastenders fan.

“Absolutely fantastic. Best thing aired ever. 1000%...”

★★★★★

written by Courtney4 on 18/02/2023

Eastenders has helped me through my own issues. It is so relatable and realistic. It was like looking at myself from the outside. To react to the same situation from a different perspective on multiple occasions. Eastenders helped me overcome open up and understand so much, I couldn't believe but am forever greatful for. I 1000% recommend this show because of how amazing each episode is and of course for the amazing talent of acting from the entire cast especially Stacey slater. Outstanding. Eastenders is the only reason I turn on the TV. This is something I make sure to not miss one second of ever. I make sure never to have distractions and if I do I always pause. I'm fully invested since I was a kid. Love it so much and greatful to watch it. Definitely recommend for so many reasons. Without a doubt the best thing ever aired. Brilliant acting, show, realism and whoever runs it congratulations. 1000% a lifetime investor thank you

I'm a bit confused,am I reading about Eastenders or Songs of Prase,if I were to follow the example of Enders I'd be breaking up rocks during day light hours and living on bread and water by now!

“Absolutely diabolical”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 436Kirkland on 09/02/2023

Totally gone downhill. Have watched since it started but oh my.. what a load of rubbish it is now. Drugs, fighting, bullying, hiv, miss piggy (sharon-yawn), guns, death ....enough is enough. Come on and wake up to reality. Lol boring, Whitney yawn, Sharon's brother geek. Come on, shake it up or stop. It has become so tedious

“Absolutely ridiculous episodes ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Soap82 on 10/11/2022

Weds 9th Nov episode was pathetic , the story line with Sam was like some thing out of a comedy sketch . Tired of Alfie character being returned again the quality of acting the story lines etc are getting sillier and sillier . Have watched from the very beginning but now just end up turning over as I pay my tv licence to be entertained and as. Eastender my self this programme is now degrading and does not represent life it is stupid beyond words . Disappointed with the bbc constantly reinventing old characters. Again Weds 9th Nov made me cringe and turn over channels another great soap ruined .

“Rubbish”

★★☆☆☆

written by bqMcCoy236 on 04/10/2022

What has happened to EastEnders? They go from one storyline to another without an ending for any of them. One commits a murder or two and manages to get away with it but yet Billy Mitchell is getting put away for being involved with a murder years ago. Stop this nonsense and make EastEnders exciting and gripping, how it used to be. Yawn, yawn.

“Weak plots and characters.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by HunterBryant5 on 23/09/2022

I have watched Eastenders since it first aired. It used to have gripping storylines, well written scripts and fine acting. Sadly, it is now rubbish and it is one of those programmes I sometimes watch in order to be exasperated by the dreadfully weak, hammy and poor script writing, the boring story lines that mostly go nowhere and the awful, over the top acting and directing. I feel sorry for the actors who are not given opportunities to show what they are capable of and not surprised that many have left. I now watch old episodes from 2010 which reminds how good it used to be. Such a shame. I wonder if it has become a training ground for aspiring but not very talented writers and directors!

I decided to give Eastenders another go,i had given up on it ages ago,i needn,t have bothered,it,s still complete rubbish! Unfortunately it gives the wrong impression of the area and it,s people,i'm sure there are folk,s in other parts of the country that believe all Londoner's are the same as shown in 'ender,s,we're not I'm glad to say,it doesn,t do working class people like me any favour,s,i think a bit of "location" training would help the writers.

“When will they realise when they have gone to far?”

★☆☆☆☆

written by cdMcManus230 on 29/08/2022

It’s always the same old depressing story lines. That continues for months! When will the writers learn to wrap it up instead of letting these terrible story lines draw out as they have nothing else to write about. I really think this unfortunately will be the first soap to be axed. They need new characters why keep bringing back the old ones that left for periods of time as the writers didn’t have anymore story lines for them. Sooooo boring!

“Rubbish writing ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Destineyb20 on 21/08/2022

What’s happened to Easties? Used to be great, ow really stupid and silly episodes. Not vaguely realistic scenes and too much violence. Never thought we’d see gun violence in this once good programme.

“Was good, what happened? ”

★★☆☆☆

written by Townsend363 on 12/08/2022

I used to like the show, but I can't watch it ever since Nick Cotton and Dot Cotton left. The Christmas 2021 episode was awful. I can't believe Dotty's Mum went from a quiet person to a nasty drug addictive woman. People blame Nick for that but come on he died in 2015. I hate Stacey for trying to convince her Mum Jean to go back to Walford especially when Jean has got back on her feet ever since staying at this caravan park. I hate that Nick isn't Dotty's Dad. Linda is a hypocrite. She is selfish and only thinks of herself. There are so much more but let's leave it at that.

“not suitable for children”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 25/05/2022

For the past few weeks it's been all about Ben and Callum, it is just so boring and have had enough of it. Last night with a 10 year old watching Ben was sexually assualted, this is unacceptable, as at 7.30pm children are watching. Get a new writer, this one is so woke, everyone has had enough. I have to turn off until story lines change.

I think a mass boycott of all soaps by the fans might get the message to the tv companies,that people are fed up with the rubbish unreal plots and having woke,p.c snowflake,gay and other minority issues inflicted on them night after night. It,s time for a major re-think and clear up/out,let,s face reality,Eastenders is nothing like the Eastend,Emmerdale is nothing like the Dales and as for Corrie,well,i give up,would you want to live there? as from tonight I will not watch any soaps until I see some positive improvement,i won,t hold my breath.

“Get rid of your script writer!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Francescar19 on 22/05/2022

From the eastend gangsters and family affairs to boredom! Ben went from being the next gangster to a sissy. All about gay pride and sickness. What else ... Jean sick Stacey next! Ian sick... Linda sick, an alcoholic.... Mick sick, who was meant to be the new gangster on the block, then turned to a frail boy who can't get it up. No gangsters, no drama, no turf war, no fights, no bats, no guns, no affairs. Eastenders was like the Krays. It had us on the edge of our seats! Now, it's a good one to put you to sleep! Seriously, get rid of your writers and bring in a team who know about the heart of the eastend and its culture! Stop trying to create awareness, it's a soap not a documentary on mental health!

“Terrible ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Mosheo164 on 06/05/2022

EastEnders a truly terrible Idea on what east end life is like. They are a bunch of unlikeable characters , no where near like the proper east end community, full of families that hate each other and no body seems to do hard day's graft of work. How any of the characters can afford to buy or a house in London if this was real life they would be out on the streets. Once a great program that had a strong sense of closeness has gone straight down the pan

“Poor Acting Poor Storylines Poor Management”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Freshfacts2022 on 31/03/2022

I actually do not know where to start! This programme is beyond a joke. I have read most of the reviews and wholeheartedly agree on all of them. The script writers need firing as well as a need to hire half a brand new cast. Either scrap the programme completely or pleeeeeeaaaasse sort it out. It would be a shame to lose as it has been aired for some decades now, it needs revival not politics.

“Too Busy”

★★☆☆☆

written by Hen72 on 21/03/2022

Not enambered with the new sets on Eastenders it is far too busy too many people milling around it distracts from the main characters. You are so busy watching the extras u loose the essence of the storylines.

“Changed beyond recognition ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Makhio446 on 15/02/2022

I have not watched Eastenders for some time & could not believe what a load of rubbish it has become. Has it been hijacked ? Or are the writers trying to be politically correct. It is absolutely awful, the storylines seems to have been written by someone with no brains. No wonder this program as become a joke.This program needs to be not broadcast anymore or sack the writers & get new ones that live in the real world.

The writers do have brains of a kind,they're brain washed, if they don,t conform,comply and do as they're told then they can easily join the ranks of the cancelled. I wish they would grow a pair and stand up and be counted,they have the power,it just needs the first one to fight back.

“Fire the writers”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Napierjo229 on 06/02/2022

What used to be a good soap opera to watch, has become intolerable due to awful story lines, second rate actors and bad casting. The writers and producers of this show should be fired for allowing what used to be a good soap to have become unwatchable. I find myself shouting at the TV with disbelief that some so bad can manage to become even worse. What are they thinking? The characters are so badly casted that it is not even funny and they should all be taking acting classes for a pass time!!!

“Incing racial division”

★☆☆☆☆

written by ww22233 on 28/12/2021

Recent storylines appear to be casting one racial demographic in an excessively aggresive and negative light, creating fictitious storylines that will maliciously appear to be reflections of reality to the viewer. In perpetuating this mythology of white anti-Islamic and anti-black hate as commonplace in the generally tolerant east end of London further exacerbates already fractious race relations and disseminates the myth that there is reason for fear, suyspicion and intolerance between different racial groups. This is wholly irresponsible behaviour from the publicly funded BBC.
