Awwwwww yesss Peter and Lauren got Julia's theme 
that ending was perfect for them and for their exit. I guess thats both Ben and Jac gone from Eastenders for good as I dont see either of them returning in the future since Ben wants to do other acting work and Jac has her new baby to look after

Characters have been there a long time. The actors only a couple of years.
It's not a long service medal! Simply for use when drum beats don't suit the mood of the ending!
Its not a mockery both actors have been in the show a long time and deserve that send off
If Syed's wife got one then I see no problem in 2 of the shows brightest young talents getting one.
Wrong of Peter to leave after he has just found out his little brother is a murderer you would stick around to help out
This Peter has only been there about 2 years
Best part of EastEnders in the last 7 days.
Peter's one of EastEnders first families and the Brannings have been around quite a few years now so it's fitting. Anyway, it was nice to see a young couple leaving together under somewhat happy circumstances considering what's gone on in the last year. I was glad they got the 'Julia's Theme' ending.
By this logic it was a mockery to use it with Lou and Ian in episode 16.
It's used for scenes where the duff-duff doesn't fit. When will people get this drummed into their head?
The Beale's are the shows first family. They were based on Tony Holland's family. Julia's Theme wasn't just about Peter and Lauren. It was about the future also, a new Beale generation now beginning with the shows longest serving character, Ian, having his first grandchild.
Besides all that Lauren and Peter have been childhood sweethearts for just shy of 10 whole years. It doesn't matter that the actors changed heads. Their storyline remained the same.
I beg to differ, lauren has been a major character since jossa as been in the role
And lauren will no doubt become a future icon for the show.
Peter while ben may not have been there long, he has don't some pretty emotional scenes like the funeral, aftermath and reveal. Peter as a character has been there on/off since 93 and is a part of the shows original family and will keep the family going and he has been a wreck since lucy does and it's only right he and lauren got this happy ending.
Alternatively lauren should have still thought it was Peter and they leave on bad terms which is the usual soaps do.
Julia's Themes are for characters, and stories, not for actors. It was perfectly fitting for their characters. Duff-duffs wouldn't have fit, which is the point.
