There's alot of divided opinion on these forums about things so why not, in one statement, say something controversial about soap land!

"I don't think Emmerdale deserved the broadcast award last night, Corrie should've gotten it!"

Don't think its overrated - underrated in fact! I just think Corrie has been the strongest soap this year

Corrie's anniversary week was disappointing.

Now that Lacey Turner has left, maybe another female actress will have a chance to win some awards now?

I agree! Lacey is superb but what about the others? Lindsey Coulson, Gillian Wright, Diane Parish...

I think peoples favourite characters/families on soaps and how they think the originals were the best is often based on stubborn nostalgia, not interesting dynamics/talent

I think Reg set the standard of acting and storylines and nothing has matched since.

EastEnders is just one shouty slanging match after another and doesn't appeal to anyone but the Jeremy Kyle audience

The Chryed story was good to begin with but the minute they put them together officially, the writers have turned them into two cardboard cut outs and written dialogue for them that is thin and basically just to satisfy all the die-hard fans of the couple. It comes across as weak and fake. The story would be better off had one of them died before they got to be happy together or if Syed had left with Amira, and decided he could be with her after all.

I agree, I know he's an original character but I can't stand him, he's just as bad as Phil, but somehow he gets sympathy. He would so bad if he tried to change, but no, despite so many lessons over the years he has yet to learn a single thing. They could axed and bring in another original character like Sharon .
