Most ridiculous storyline in a soap this year: Max getting found guilty when the whole square knows that Bobby did it and especially Lauren, Liam and Cindy letting it go.
most missed poster would be alan45
Abbie, Abigail , Chloe O´brien and Trinity for me
I was wondering whether we were allowed to nominate the same person in more than one category but I'll presume so? I'll try to get most of mine in over the weekend :)
No, because the vote I've got earmarked for you would then be wasted. However, I do think you should spend some time on the naughty step! http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...vil-763381.gif http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...ing-176278.gif

Most ridiculous storyline in a soap this year ... The aftermath of the Lucy Beale murder following the Bobby reveal.
I think a quiet word from Siobhan in their shell should be enough ... http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...ink-367638.gif
It's interesting that so far that all the entries for most ridiculous storyline have come from Eastenders and yet it's the Coronation Street producer who's getting the boot!
The reason the producer is getting the boot
may be more connected to money.
If ITV get a lot of complaints about storylines
they may be concerned about falling ratimgs
and loss of advertising revenue.And do
something.
Whereas the BBC cushioned by the licence fee
to.some extent is prepared to ride out any
minor storms.
Also most people I know either watch Corrie or
EE or if both have a very definite favourite.
A minority wouldnt watch the other programme
if paid to do so!
The EE viewers do seem to have higher
/ different expectations
and are therefore more critical when things
dont suit. Corrie viewers just shrug and mainly
ignore "daft stories" and do something
else.
Its a bit different on a forum because most will
watch more soaps than the average viewer!
And this is a generally tolerant one!
DTC was given "golden handcuffs" by the BBC after live week, which means he isn't on a time-limited contract and can stay as long as he wants (the first time this has been done on EE). To be fair, I thought it was well deserved after the enormous success of the 30th anniversary, but maybe it went to his head and he now thinks he can do no wrong?
Presumably he can still be fired if necessary, but I think that's unlikely to happen. There's still some good things about EE at the moment in my opinion and I haven't been driven to stop watching (as I did about three years ago). Saying that, I'll also be voting for half of Albert Square covering for Bobby as the most ridiculous storyline of the year... :wall:
At least he appears to have listened to the complaints about Dean being portrayed as some kind of tragic anti-hero... :angry:
I agree, Dazzle. I think DTC did a good job up to and including the live episode, but it all seems to have gone to pot since then with some seriously ridiculous stories. There have been a few good bits still, like Les's cross dressing, but they are now few and far between I'm afraid.
My dog´s walkies routine seems to mainly be when EE is on and I have not watched a lot since Lucy´s murder. Have kept upt to date with spoilers here but going by the storylines and comments here I don´t seem to miss much and I sure don´t really miss it .. watch one or two episodes a week when I get the chance but absolutely not bothered watching missed episodes online ...and I used to be a fanatic but from what I have read, I am not eager to become a regular watcher again soon :(
Just one week left for those who haven't voted yet. Get your vote in now!
Eeek will get my votes in later today.
Thanks for the nudge. There's just one category I can't decide on at the moment.
Perdita - do you think it's a good idea to add a thread linking to this one in some of the other sub-forums? For example, the Neighbours forum is very busy but none of the regulars there (apart from us usual suspects) appear to have noticed this thread. It's a shame if they miss out.

Dear Perdita
Im sorry Ive not voted so far.Two reasons
Away from hope due to family illness.
So only time to have quick look at new posts
but not post myself. Decided about most
nominations but still thinking about a few!
Also practical problem of being unable to
cut and paste voting paper.
Trying to think how best to vote without
breaking rules .Hope to do so by 27/11!
Thanks v much to those who have voted for
me. Much appreciated MM
Sorry to hear about your family illness, mm. Hope everything goes ok.
