Ok lemme ask ya this,, does the price of a flat cost less in East London ?? Since Walford is not exactly the most elegant neighborhood.But again the same applies for certain areas of Holland, if you pick Amsterdam, you can expect an incredibly compact living space for about 250,000 euros,, or any where between 1,500- 3,000 euros a month if u rent,,, it isn't unusual for it to be higher than the prices i quoted.. its all in the LOCATION .. so that is why i was wondering if the prices in London depended on the Location..

Parts of East London are run-down, parts are ok. The whole area however is becoming a very "in" area to move to, partly because it is so near to the City of London which is pushing prices up. Walford, particularly Albert Square, seems a reasonable area to move to. There are some nice houses there and it is fairly quiet and near a tube station. I would imagine the price of property there would be very high and well out of the reach of someone like Bradley.

Also Jodi, it is the deposit that kills people.. last night Bradley said they were looking for 3 months.. imagine if the price was in top range (£2000) that is a lot of month to shell out up front

rent is very expensive in london isnt it where i live its around £70-£100 a month! maybe they should move up north

They could move to Weatherfield...er...

EE still using monopoly money then?

Everyone apart from Bradley apparently. That's what comes of being the only inhabitant of Albert Square who works for a real bank I suppose.

What bank does he work for?

UpWest??

Richie remember there is a black hole and theres and endless amount of dosh in it that the Mitchells and others seem to be getting at LOL

I thought the scenes with the Downs Syndrome support group was great, and yes Billy is a big kid himself, no wonder those kids loved him. Does any one want to SLAP Honey ?? She needs some serious counseling to get over this after birth blues.....or is she truly not equipped to handle the baby ???:searchme:

another place of residency is also empty, the place where CJ lived, its a tiny place, but good enuff for Bradley and Stacey to start out,, just a thought.:searchme:

With Honey, the bubble burst.. she wanted this perfect life with husband and baby to match.. you saw her in the first scenes with Petal, would not let her down and when she found that Petal had DS, she just wouldn't touch her.. Where did the inital love go? you can't just switch it on and off like that.. Honey needs a wake up call but so doesn't Peggy the way she behaves too...
