I thought I must have deleted it by mistake. So yes I think so. That used to happen a lot because of lost episodes

[iamtheoneandonlyyy]

Love Sanjay and Gita, I don't remember them being in it for as long as this.
I used to think gita was moany and moody but she was actually married to Sanjay and very patient lol

Yeah I’m surprised how much I like them on the 2nd watching I thought they just shouted at each other constantly

They work well together and both have their —massive— faults but they want to do the right thing

Might also have a slight crush on Sanjay this time round

Another missed episode? Suddenly Mary has appeared from nowhere (but people are saying she's from Ireland)?

I'm not liking all the journalism stuff, or the corrupt councillor, but I'm glad to see Diane back! Nicely contrived storyline to reintroduce her, dovetailing in with the holiday to Paris!

I guess Phil & Kathy are out for a while now, it'll be interesting to see how & when they come back.

I'm also strangely fascinated by how the George & Peggy situation will develop, given that he's turning out to be a top-class criminal mastermind and she's a sweet innocent landlady.

[Limer]

And didn't Tony resign from his journalism job, how come he's back working at the Walford Gazette?

Poor Barry, I think Vanessa's a wrong 'un. Hope he doesn't get his heart broken too much (and hope that Roy doesn't lose too much money).

[Limer]

Oh dear, Vanessa's scarpered with all the cash.

Clare Grogan as Ian's private detective! Does this mean Cindy's coming back? I hope so, I love her bitchy one-liners

Glad to see the back of Lorraine.

[iamtheoneandonlyyy]

My god Sarah's a miserable whiner.
So is Simon
Bianca and Tiffany have very annoying whispers

[iamtheoneandonlyyy]

And I don't remember Mary at all. I remember almost everything but I don't remember her character.

[iamtheoneandonlyyy]

I feel really bad for cindy, I realise it's not real and very old lol

[Idontwantyourfreedom]

Jessie’s social worker is Lofty’s love child.

[BrennieGirl]

I was thinking about some of the characters (I know I have no life 🙄). I have absolutely no recollection of Annie or her Dad. I kind of recognise Mary and Conor but I don't actually remember them. But if you'd told me Nadia Sawalha was in EE, I'd have told you you were wrong.

Now I did get married around that time (early 1998) so maybe I was too busy with wedding plans/being a bridezilla to watch EE every night.

Is it just me? Or do other people have no recollection of some characters and storylines? Even big ones. Although I can sometimes recall really silly little things.

[iamtheoneandonlyyy]

Mary is totally gone from my memory but I remember there were complaints about the violence Annie and Phil get up to or something.

[catsoup]

The Di Marco's have arrived! I loved Beppe first time round so it's very nice to see him again.

[iamtheoneandonlyyy]

Dot being supportive over marks HIV was lovely

[Limer]

I loved the play! I'm so impressed that the cast can act their own characters acting.

Why is Sanjay just carrying on as normal now? Has he forgotten about his missing wife & daughter? Do Gita & Sharmilla ever return?

But Nigel's leaving Really sad to see him go, he's my favourite.

[iamtheoneandonlyyy]

Still watching!
Tiffany and biancas whispering voices are annoying
Louise is very pouty and dramatic
I don't remember grant being so awful!

[Tunnocksmallow]

I’m watching too! I’d forgotten just how fantastic the eastenders two handed episodes can be!

[iamtheoneandonlyyy]

The pat and Roy stuff with Peggy and frank was brilliant. I always liked pat.

[Tunnocksmallow]

The Pat and Peggy episode was brilliant. Even my 18 year old DD was invested!

[Limer]

I loved Pat & Peggy, then Roy & Frank during the same evening.

I hope Roy & Frank manage to succeed in their business venture!

And I hope Pat & Peggy continue to secretly hate each other

[Limer]

Just got up-to-date again!

Very pleased that Steve Owen has been caught, but Matthew was too - interested as to how that will pan out! I loved the episode that had Steve chasing Matthew across Nottingham, while simultaneously Bianca, Ricky, Carol, Robbie, Sonia and Dan were in Southend. WIll we ever see Billy again?

Janine's back!!!

I can't keep up with who's living where, the whole cast seems to be playing a game of musical houses.

The gym is obviously going to be in some important storylines soon, but it looks ridiculous that a studio is about the size of a broom cupboard!

[thewooster]

I'm still a bit behind and just watched the Nottm episode, but really enjoyed watching Steve and Gianni chase after Matt and Theresa.

Then the Jacksons in Sarfend and Dan calling poor old B a slapper, bit of fun, meant nuffin...and she was 15 at the time. How times change, what a rat.

Also don't like Gianni's attitude. He thinks he is god's gift.

And I'm struggling to see Ian and Mel as a couple.

[Tunnocksmallow]

How the hell did I forget how much of an arse Billy was at the beginning??? Wtf??

[OnTheBoardwalk]

Trying to play catch up on this. Was going to give up but Steve has appeared.

Surely with the video evidence and Saskia it was absolutely self defence.

I’ve got 83 episodes to catch up on. Think I’m going to be using the fast forward button a lot

[GattinaGattona]

Anyone else watching classic, 2009 and current? I’m getting a bit confused 🥴
