EE nil points
Maybe winning nothing (I dont count Adam's lifetime achiement award) was the kick up the arse EE needed. It shows that they need to buck their ideas up and that they cannot get away with what they are currently producing. Brannings need to go, and a whole revamp in writers would be good.

If we took this attitude every time Corrie hit a lull in it's 53 year history then that show would be long gone. Go away.
The quality of the other scenes, really showed the 'lack of' from EastEnders.
It was a poor selection from EastEnders but then it's been a poor year.
I don't know if this will help them buck up thier ideas. They did win a bafta a few days ago after all ?(god knows how? :sleep:)
I think alot will be resting on this new family. They NEED to be success. Alot is relying on them. Something needs to be done to refresh the show and take it to it's next era. This new family should do that. If it doesn't, then the downward spiral will continue.
I'll second that;)! LN can't bury her head in the sand any longer after this. She either needs to go or get some decent writers in. Cut down on the Grange Hill-esque stories with the teens nobody gives a shit about:yawn:.
And isn't it telling that The Brannings seemingly aren't the big draw that LN thinks they are:o. No awards in the year that the family dominated the show! Methinks there may be less Branning stories in future, especially after Tanya leaves:eek:
A spectacular scene doesn't have to be a stunt,.
Like Perry Fenwick said the live olympic torch run was a once in a lifetime thing - car crashes and fires can be done over and over again.
And people would have complained had they nominated the car crash with Lauren and Joey so whatever they do they can't win.
Corrie was poor for years before Collinson came along with a succession of poor producers since Tony Wood, in the mid 2000s it looked like EE was on its last legs until Santer came along, and Emmerdale was hardly fantastic under Anita Turner and Stuart Blackburn, they have all been there at one point.
Corrie got lucky and escaped it's lull period but EE is beyond irreconcilable.
Don't know about that. All soaps are a rollercoaster. Nobody stays up, or down forever.
I hope so - EE is dire atm - so much so that I am not watching - I used to tune in without fail for every episode but I find myself missing it nowadays and it doesnt bother me, lacklustre storylines, boring characters, nothing happening at all
hahah that is funniest thing ever you should be a stand-up
The results on last night's awards show demonstrate that you are I'm afraid.
I disagree.
Look at the latest ratings on www.barb.co.uk three episodes are above 7m with one above 8m. The only episode to fall below 7m was one that clashed with Emmerdale. No way are the BBC going to axe a show that is getting those ratings four nights a week.
Ratings of 7-8m are not uncommon for Corrie either and anything above 7m is rare for Emmerdale nowadays. The X Factor getting 8m in its last series was considered a triumph and yet ITV aren't talking about axing any of these shows.
Quality wise EE will pick up it always does.
It must be plain as the nose on LN's face that the over kill of these few along with actors being picked for their looks rather than acting ability (Joey, Tyler), and the poor writing and pacing of stories has brought the show to rock bottom.
I for one would be glad to see the end of all the Brannings and the yoof.
Time has come to get a totally fresh EP, with new ideas but also a proven record in the industry.
This.
Yet people expect it to always be amazing :rolleyes:
Good point
