Yesterday's EastEnders

Innit though. it's like how everyone in Corrie is no more than one degree of separation from Steve, Gary, Leanne or Maria.

I read an interview with the Maria actress in one of the soap mags lying around my grandparents' house a few weeks ago and she was saying the character has had 31 partners in her 20-odd years at Corrie.

I'm sure I said it earlier in this thread, but it is always funny when anyone in a soap lays out the history of any house or character on the street/square/close. It always sounds just crazy.

Who with?

Keep watching … Duff Duff duff duff du du du duff

[wipes away a tear]

Good to see Colin, Mary, Lofty and Ian.

I was expecting it to be cheesy and full of pomp, but I thought it was really good considering how it could have been otherwise... until they started comparing her to the Queen. It took me right out of it. Also, everybody standing up in the church felt like a Harry Hill TV Burp moment.

Yes that was a real clanger

Toe-curling, because it was nicely done until that point. Ian lurking in a bush was unexpected. They brought it back at the cemetery though, Jack throwing her cigarettes onto her coffin, Abide With Me seguing into the theme tune...

Rip Mick… a full Vera Lynn farewell complete with White Cliffs of Dover.

he'll be back, Harold Bishop/Dee Bliss style

We absolutely reckoned he's up for the full Harold Bishop reveal. Janine husbands should really stay away from cliffs.

The actress playing Lola is doing an incredible job.

Cindy reportedly returning from the grave in a few months, with Ian. How many of Ian's wives have tried to murder him? He doesn't bear a grudge.
