As BBC got FTA on satellite and BBC1 and 2 are being transmitted by cable in The Netherlands, there are quite some people who watch the episodes of Eastenders.

It's a pity we can't watch Coronation Street abroad, would love that too.

Nice to see that there is a forum like this, with lots about Eastenders.

Keep up the high quality of the British soap, it's far more better then the American crap.

Love from The Netherlands!

The American ones are brilliant, i just wish we got more of them over here other than Sunset Beach (rerun) even though this is my favourite soap ever, and then General Hospital which is currently only available to people with freeview!!

I know Emmerdale is screened in Canada and the Scandinavian countries. Quite popular in Finland I think

Nice to see we are not the only country to love it, oh and the die hard American's who protested.

But EastEnders really isn't that great at the minute, just wait until it is! (which by the way, won't be long )

Actually i do enjoy & love some of the UK soaps (Corrie & FA), and just wish more US ones were shown as well. Especially The Bold and the Beautiful! How great would it be for five to buy B&B and do what they did years ago having B&B on then SB to follow. It would be like being back in 1998/99 again
