Does anyone feel that Eastenders has improved significantly since 2004 when the shows viewing figures were at their lowest and fans were bemoaning the repetitive use of gangster storylines?

I feel watching it last night, that the show has a strong cast and that going forward if Bryan Kirkwood carries on the good work Diederick Santer has done, Eastenders can go on from strength to strength.

Yep. EastEnders is a fantastic show and IMO is the best soap in my eyes.

Oh God, yes! 2004 was the worst year in the history of the show and IIRC there was even talk about cancelling it, although that may have been just talk. It's amazing how much the show has turned around since then

Well obviously if the viewing figures were at their lowest and fans were moaning about it, then of course it has improved

Although going by the whingers on here you'd think EE hasn't improved at times.

Well it's all down to personal opinion after all. I don't have a problem with people not liking EE

What storylines took place in 2004, I can't even remember that far back.

It was the year where the funfair collapsed and Sonia uttered that cringeworthy line: "Get Den Watts - he'll know what to do" , then there was the tedious Sharon/Dennis/Zoe and Alfie/Kat/Andy love triangles, the Ferreiras' neverending kidney saga :yawn: and loads more tripe. It was horrendous

Thankfully a distsant memory now though!

I dont remember much of the Ferrieras luckly, the only thing i remember from that year was Pauline and Dot stuck together with the fun-fair collapse and i think Zoe thinking that she was pregnant with one of the Watts or something along those lines i dont know, its strange i remember alot from 00-02 but from 03-05 i dont remember alot and 06-07 i didnt watch.
