It's good to see more dumbing down of the cast. Stage school brats galore. They might as well take our licence fee down to the nearest petrol station and burn it.

    I'm not a massive fan of the teens but why does another teen being in the show means is it dumbing down? The two aren't interlinked...in my world.

    Despite only about £1.00 a year going from One Licence fee to EastEnders is a bit dramatic.

    Many people spend more than that an hour smoking which is just blowing smoke into the air and killing yourself at the same time.

    This :)
    I mean she hasn't even stared in the show yet for all we know she might be an amazing actor. Still if people gave things a Chance this won't be DS any longer.

    Dumbing down being the silly naming of character & fast food outlets on the soap.

    A gay character who danced in a laundrette to Gaga songs whist wearing a hearing aid then turned into a nutjob turned murderer. Yep all is good

    Whoses got a silly name?
    Besides Fatboy and maybe Poppy none of the characters have silly names.

    Must admit, my heart sank when I discovered there was to be yet another teen joining EE, but Cindy Junior is a member of the Beale clan and has an obvious connection with the Square.

    I'm willing to give her a chance.

    I honestly didn't know cindy had another daughter. Me and my mum were just talking about this the other day and she was telling me that she remembers cindy having another daughter but I was no mum I think you're making stuff up :D

    To be fair I doubt I even watched it back then, I was probably a kid myself

    Give her a chance, remember when nobody liked Lola either? Now I hear nothing but praise for her.

    I've sat through (whilst forced) a handful of episodes in three years. Abeit I watched Pat's death purposely.

    I complained prior to arrival of Dirkwood that he would sink the ship, likewise views weren't heard and now we're here clambering onboard a dingy.

    As an older viewer who has watched EE since the first episode, at one time I thought it unmissable, but now I have lost interest, mainly because I think it's aimed at youngsters nowadays, and the teen storylines bore me. The only thing keeping me watching lately is Ava and Sam, whom I like as a couple.

    Really how can some force you to watch it, unless they had a gun to your head.

    It'll only be a matter of days until this couple you speak off will be split apart ;)

    I'd like to see them make a go of it, but not looking forward to the screaming rows when that Dexter character finds out, I would normally use subtitles when somebody like him is on, however not really intererested in his babbling:yawn:
