Eastenders is getting more boring with each episode!!!

*homosexuality - sorry to any homophobes, but it is much more accepted than it used to be, they can get civil parnerships. Having 'the token gay character' like Derek is not good enough, not when you can explore other issues such as coming to terms with sexuality, homophobia, relationships etc.

That was already tackled with Sonia and Naomi. Very badly, I'll admit, but nevertheless, still done.

It was tackled years ago very succesfull with Michael Cashman. Then EE WAS hard hitting drama not the tosh it is now

Colin and Barry - excellently handled. Never been a better gay storyline in any soap that was as well portrayed as these two.

This week's stuff was so predictable, even though most stuff has now been well hidden from press/mags. It's one good thing hiding spoilers to build up excitement, but when the storylines are still rubbish, the tension flows straight down the drain.

Praise indeed Richie. That was EE in its heydey not only were they not afraid to tackle controversial issues (as Homosexuality was back then) but they had writers who were capable of making the stories brilliant unlike the twits that appear to be writing todays nonsense. Dare I say the actors were much better then, brought in because of their acting abilities rather than their teen-appeal. (No offence intended to anyone between 13 and 19)

If you were writing such trash would you want it publicised in advance
