Aibu to ask who really annoys you on East enders and why?
Mine are Mick and Linda. Mick always mumbles and looks unwashed and hungover and Linda looks like she sleeps in her make up.
Disclaimer: lighthearted. I know its only a tv show Grin

I love ben and want him and highway to be happily ever after

TheDarkPassenger · 13/08/2019 20:51

Ah sorry who annoys me? Stacey started to even though I always had a soft spot cause we’re both bipolar but she’s been a right twat with kush and treats her husband like shit (who I also hate but no one deserves that shit)

Twinkletoenails · 13/08/2019 20:52

Sharon irritates me a bit. Have grown to love The Slaters

bouncingraindrops · 13/08/2019 20:53

I don't like Ruby or Sonia, they don't really have any depth. Even with the rape storyline Ruby had I think it would have been far better received with a more established character. She literally came back and had this huge story before anyone got the chance to get to know her.

I Love Ben; this is the first Ben I have ever liked! And Stuart, Ricky Champ is a fabulous actor and can make me love, hate and love Stuart again, all in the same episode!

Sharon, even when Phil was on his 'death bed', she still had a full face of make up. Plus huge false eye lashes that she can barely open her eyes with.

Cheeserton · 13/08/2019 20:59

It's all such a complete load of shite these days. Used to love it up until a few years ago. Now it's utter bollocks.

recklessruby · 13/08/2019 21:02

Definitely Sharon! She doesn't look like a real person anymore.
She s orange and yellow and has spiders for eyelashes Grin

Bloody Habiba - why would any actress take that part? And Adam is weird, as well as that bloke who is with Karen's daughter, Chantelle? He's an absolute nut job.

Duchessgummybuns · 13/08/2019 21:19

Eastenders always looks dingy... would it kill someone to turn a light on?

BronzeGoddess · 13/08/2019 21:20

Bobby Beale. Pointless character. He should’ve got longer in prison for killing his sister so we didn’t have to be subjected to this boring character again!

Sonia and Robbie. Haven’t had a decent storyline between them since the 90s.

Halfway. Not ANOTHER in the closet storyline....

BronzeGoddess · 13/08/2019 21:23

Sharon’s weave should have its own storyline. It’s more believable than her acting (just).

Mrsjayy · 13/08/2019 21:32

Max Branning he is a creepy fecker and rubs his head all the time it is starting to get a shine on it Grin

recklessruby · 13/08/2019 21:34

@mrsjayy how come Max the shiny headed creepy fucker gets all the pretty young women? Very unbelievable!!

Max also shuffled everywhere. I want to scream 'pick your feet up!' At the telly every time he is on!

TheDarkPassenger · 13/08/2019 21:39

I personally like the dinge!!

And yes, omg Sonia, just looking at her makes me uncontrollably angry. Nosey horrible bitch

YoTheGinPussyOfThigh · 13/08/2019 21:41

New Ben is lovely, perfect for the part.

Not keen on Habiba or Adam. Honey deserves much better, maybe she will meet her prince on Strictly!

I say we need more pets in EastEnders, Lady Di is all very well but we need a new Well'ard and some East End cats.

LymeyPie · 13/08/2019 21:44

Agree Cheese it really is dire now. Its now one long yawning continuum of PC public service announcements, its hard to be light-hearted! Tonight was a first though - such thin gruel - I fast-forwarded all of it! All the characters looked half dead and most of the storylines too.

youarenotkiddingme · 13/08/2019 21:48

I'm a Stuart fan.

Ian is starting to annoy me.

Courtney555 · 13/08/2019 21:49

The one that's having the affair with Adam.

Karen with her over styled slobbery, "let's make the woman on benefits always have her bra falling down and unwashed hair."

Ruby. Get in the bin.

recklessruby · 13/08/2019 21:50

I missed it tonight but dm told me roughly what happened.
Only tend to see it in school hols due to my work hours so i ve had to get a crash course on the new ones.

Tis 1 of lifes mysteries Confused

Crunchymum · 13/08/2019 21:58

I dip in and out. Currently have about 10 unwatched episodes (will delete most of them)

Its easier to say who I do like.

Stuart [although he was an utter cunt a few months back?] and urm..... that's it really.

Don't mind Mitch, although again he is another one who has been completely rewritten? As he was an arseshat too.

Also Karen and Keegan. Keanu would have made the cut pre his Sharon shagging days Grin

I quite like Martin, the character portrays his love of "Stace" very well. Seems like a decent bloke.

dayswithaY · 13/08/2019 22:02

I used to love EE, never missed an episode. Still remember Den and Angie, Pauline and Arthur and Lou Beale. I was watching it when Michelle and Sharon were teenagers - the Michelle teen pregnancy storyline was amazing. Then Ricky and Bianca, Tiffany and the Mitchell brothers, all brilliant. But I stopped watching when Den came back from the dead, I feel like that was taking the audience for mugs, we all watched him get shot and fall in the canal. Now if I ever watch it the acting and scripts all seen so juvenile. And every storyline you can think of has been done again and again. Isn't it just the very old and the very young that watch soaps now?

nildesparandum · 13/08/2019 22:03

Am I the only one who can't stand Honey. She gives me the creeps with her fixed google eyed stare.

Beelee · 13/08/2019 22:04

Habiba and her family. Boring
