What’s the worst killer reveal in UK Soap?

Besides Bobby killing Lucy, and not just Eastenders in general; I wanna hear everyone’s opinions because I’ve noticed the soap whodunnits have been very lacklustre the past decade or so.

For me, off the top of my head, Freddie being Fraser’s killer. That was so disappointing considering he was the number one suspect in the first place

Does anybody else hate Halloween episodes where the characters costumes are so generic?

It’s awkward because in real life that’s just not the case. You go to a Halloween in real life and see someone dressed as a witch, vampire, devil etc you immediately know they’re a boring person 😭. In real life people dress as cartoon characters, memes, pop culture references and so on and I think we should see more of that. Whitney and Zack’s stag and hen do was a good example of seeing these types of costumes. Hope we get that this Halloween

Well Josh and Oscar are officially the worst characters on the show right now

No matter how any of you feel about Jasmine, she doesn’t deserve what they’re doing to her after everything she’s been through

So we’re all in agreement or consensus that Josh is the “evil” twin right?

I’ve seen people outside of the fandom even say it. And the way he’s been with pursuing Oscar knowing he’s his sister boyfriend was bad enough, and they horribly throwing her abandonment issues in her face in today’s cringey scene? He’s actually awful and he deserves what Jasmine does to him when she finds out about the affair

What are the recasts that you think destroyed a character and improved a character?

Destroyed - Max Bowden’s Ben. Harry Reid was in my opinion the PERFECT Ben Mitchell, right blend of damaged psycho still trying to live up to his father’s expectations. Harry Reid portrayed that brilliantly, but with Max Bowden they tried so hard make him a tough mini Phil and that just wasn’t Ben’s essence at all

Improved - Jac Jossa’s Lauren. She brought life and personality to the character as the other actress was rather plain and quite a drip. She wasn’t even convincing enough to have people believe she ran over Max but I could definitely see Jac’s Lauren doing so

Characters you think the show was right to kill off, even though it’s controversial within the fandom?

For me, it’s Lola. Sorry, I know she’s a beloved character and I loved her too when she arrived but besides giving birth live and her custody battle over Lexi, she had no huge or impactful storylines during her stint and she was never really treated as a Mitchell either. Giving her the terminal cancer storyline gave her more impact, otherwise she would’ve been another forgotten character if they hadn’t

Say something bad about an EP/EP’s you love. GO!

Dierdrick Santer - Making being skint some of the characters only storylines. Like it gets to a point where you no longer care

DTC - (not from his EP stint) killing off Danielle. 17 years later and I’m still p*ssed

This Josh/Oscar business is incredibly forced and especially biphobic and really shouldn’t be cheered on

As much as I love Oscar, as a bisexual, it really grates me they’re perpetuating harmful biphobic stereotypes through him for the sake of “drama” and yet another unnecessary MLM ship that’s just going to cause viewers to hate him and Josh
