    I've been watching it from day 1 … all the way back to 1985.

    That's the only soap I watch 😀

    I used to watch it - but weaned myself off Eastenders about 5 years ago - not watched it since !

    Same here but the Christmas episodes were always super dramatic. Was it good @WhatThe?

    It was starting 35 mins early. I'd only just noticed so it was in case anyone else didn't know.

    I sta

    I started watching it from the first episode too. I remember the trailers for the first episode on TV and my mum and sister being excited about it. Unfortunately I've not been able to watch it for a few years now because of all of the BBC channels changing to HD and my Sky box isn't HD. I could watch it online but I never feel in the mood for watching any TV shows while I'm online, I'd rather just watch Youtube videos.

    Oh I see @Ross1975

    Do you remember when Grant & Phil used to flush Ian's head down the toilet !!!!😂😂😂

    I also remember the days when Ian was still in school.

    There is something very familiar about imaging Ian's head being stuck into the toilet by someone like Phil.

    Yes, I remember when Ian was at school too. I always remember how when Ian was young he was a likeable and fairly popular character, but then as he got older he changed and became snivelling, kind of mean, and unlikeable.

    I wish Nick Cotton never got killed off, he was a funny pantomime villain, kind of like an adult Dennis The Menace, I enjoyed how he'd always wind up Phil, I've got no idea why Nick did this since he was scared of Phil and would always back down when Phil got aggressive, lol.
