this is the first time ive come online or seen any "normal" tv since the whole christmas thing kicked off as ive been here (& abroad) visiting family & friends.
i turn on the tv to check the listings on teletext & spot a load of people in ambulances all battered & bruised, & some girl (janine i think she's called) fighting with a guy about whether or not she'd killed someone.. is anyone out there a big enough fan of this dirge to have watched it over the holidays - i just wondered what misfortunes the show had inflicted on its characters this christmas (as they seem to make the suffer more & more tragedy every year)?

indeed.. clearly both of us were struggling for new thread themes & looked straight to tv for a quick & easy answer..
great minds, or something..

i know - hardly worth paying a license fee for most of it. im not a particularly sensitive person - but i do find it saddenning the sheer volume of programs which set to belittle people. if the people on the shows doing the bitching & backstabbing had actually proven themselves, they might be justified in putting other people down.

promo - true.. i wouldnt begrudge the actors for doing a job. if theyre not good enough to make it to serious dramas, stage or film - then why not do soaps if you can make a living at it. the people who write the shows must have some fun too.
earthleakage - good point, theres always something other to do than watch shit on tv. but sometimes youre in the mood to watch, & its pretty shameful when theres nothing of any quality on.
anus - nevermind.. it was a passing intrigue which lasted only seconds.. i reckon i'll live without knowing/caring!

Janine & Paul were trying to pull a fast one on Barry... Barry thought he had a heart condition &'s gonna die soon... Janine wants to marry him so she gets the money & property...
They get married - Barry finds out he's not gonna die any time soon... janine is gutted - They end up argueing and she sort of pushes him off a hill... and he dead...
Later they find Barry, Janine says she don't know what's going on and acts upset...
Meanwhile all the Eastenders kids were on their way to Scotland for a New Years party... Got lost, run off the road by accident, and have been stuck in the middle of nowhere for a few days...
Zoe & Kelly got it on!
Zoe almost died of hypothermia but they got help in the end...
I am such a lame ass

acrid milk hall,
I think the tone is way too serious in soaps. They need to lighten up most conversation between blokes is light and jokey. There is no grit in Eastenders its just basically a whole bunch of people with seriously short fuses - nobody lives like that. The whole supposed gritty realism thing is just bullshit really people ain't like that. The whole show is a pharse.

The Zoe & Kelly bit was awesome... I hope they pick up where they left off as soon as she's got over her hypothermia and everything...
I might have a look around on Google - Maybe there's an Eastenders forum that'd know where the clip was! haha

Yeah that happens a lot...
In Neighbours the dodgiest thing is whenever anyone exits out the front door there's always someone else standing there just about to knock and come in... They always act suprised but it happens about 15 times a day...

not at all, I don't car... i never watch it. However I do think its on to early, it is definately not suitable for kids, if the things happened like this in a movie it would be on after 9pm.
