Jesus give me strength........What drives you mad about Albert Square..?

[Bluejuice]

The other thing that annoys be about it is the very unrealistic "a pint of non descript please Peggy" cans of beer.

Surely a graphic designer could come up with a few that don't look as bad as SKONE or whatever it is that they drink.

Even the supermarkets come up with them, M&S having a premium lager that looks a little bit like Stella.

Actually I believe the generic Eastenders beer is called SKOE and it looks just like SKOL

It's Eastenders. Someone died in the pub three weeks ago.

Well, I do rather hate the fact that NO wedding at any point in the 25 years of enders has ever continued happily. I'm pretty sure that every single wedding has ended in divorce or tragic death. Except perhaps for the really really old characters to who we go aaaaaaaahhhhh.

Enders comes and goes in waves. Sometimes theres months when its really good, and sometimes its shite. But it will ALWAYS be better than that comedy northern crap that is Corrie.

 

[Gully]

But that is the very point about Coronation Street, it has plausible story lines covering serious subjects but at the same time carries a healthy level of humour, thus making it an entertaining programme. Can you think of anyone on Eastenders who has anything humorous about them at all, it may be closer to reality than Corrie but it is just plain depressing, for that reason it is unwatchable for me...I want escapism in a soap, easier to achieve with comic northerners than sad and depressive southerners.

Plausible story lines !!

The worst i remember was

When Mavis had the chimney dismantled because there was a lost budgie stuck up there... and then she kept the bird, and tried to incubate the bird's eventual egg, hoping for little fluffy chicks. She was then covered with revulsion when Rita(?) told her there had to be a male budgie involved before the egg would produce any babies...!

And how many times have Kevin and Sally cheated on each other ?
In real life one of them would have been off along time ago.

That is simply not true. And even if it was true, the fact is that in Corrie, they did actually separate for a year or two and then got back together again!

I can't believe I'm hearing this.

Strange, you have some sort of voice recognition device that translates text ?

The other thing that pisses me off after someone has been raped / murdered / abused / molested / burnt / shot / stabbed / drowned / run over / scalded / kidnapped / locked up / mugged / burgled / found out they're adopted / found out they're gay / found out they're related to Ian Beale / gone mad / discovered a lump / commited arson / gone bankrupt / committed suicide / fallen into a threshing machine outside the Vic *delete as applicable*

is that oh-so-EARNEST voice at the end of the titles that says "if you have ben affected by any of the issues raised in tnoghts programme, then call this number....."

Yes I HAVE been affected. DEEPLY affected by this SHITE you pump into my living room practically every night of the f***ing WEEK.

Well after tonight's shower of shit I have another problem with the Square that irritates me.

Despite the fact that only the nutjobs generally tend to be god botherers (Dot and that murderous born again Christian daddio) it seems that every time there's a funeral or a wedding it's always a full scale religious ceremony, irrespective of the fact that none of the characters are actually Christian.

I've been to four funerals in my life, not one was in a church and not one was a burial HOWEVER in soapland they are always buried in a church graveyard. WHY?

What's more is the fact that they always round up all the characters to attend these ceremonies even when more often than not the characters in question hate the deceased/bereaved/newlyweds.

Being a burglar in Albert Square would be a piece of piss as you only need wait for someone to die or get married and the place is entirely deserted.

3 pages on what irritates you about eastenders?? you sad b*stards

 

[jevs]

When i turned on Eastenders once about 20 years ago, everyone was shouting at each other.

Well i happened to be in the room the other day when my mrs was watching it and they're still shouting at each other

 

[Playing On The Grit]

Last night's was another shocking episode and only worth watching for Roxy's fantastic norkage. She had a lovely cleave going on at the funeral.

 

[vegster]

I am amazed with the current storyline about The Queen Vic losing money. It seems to be the ONLY venue for weddings,funerals,christenings,birthdays etc etc. and is populated by every ethnic type in the area so how come its in hock ?
In six months this storyline will be forgotten but there will still be the same level of patronage in the Vic

Amazing how everyone happens to be in the room when their Mrs is watching it

 

[glasfryn]

the constant SHOUTING gets right up my hooter

 

[Shropshire Seagull]

Have to say, I thought Roxie looked damned hot in her funeral outfit the other night. Massive cleavage and a trilby - all in black - luberly-juberly

 

[Horsham Gull]

just the music drives me mad

Looks nothing like Skol, the cans are Green and Yellow !

They also drink Churchills Bitter but I haven't seen that in a while.

 

[Mr Smggles]

What annoys me about 'albert square'?


The kind of morons who watch it in the first place.

Too f***ing right mate
