I know. I was having a bit of a giggle with you. I couldn't resist.

I have to say, I haven't tuned in at all, A) because I knew what was going to happen and B) I have been let down too many times in recent years by EastEnders. I have been promised so much, yet things haven't been delivered...in my opinion. I suspect the majority of viewers have cottoned on to. Watch when they know it is going to be 'exciting' (if you can be bothered)...and post the 'excitement', duck out again. Production needs to change that perception.
Excellent point. I didn't watch ANY of the horrible Heather plot because I want a show that's consistently good, not just for the odd plot.

Blimey, would you take a look at how high EastEnders' ratings were in 2006!

27/3/2006: 9.8m (43%)
28/3/2006: 10m (46%)
30/3/2006: 9.7m (46%)
31/3/2006: 10.2m (48%)

Get Johnny Week, this. And they were considered extremely low at the time! Those figures would be beyond brilliant today.

I LOVED Get Johnny Week. Great fun, the Mitchell brothers back together and that ghastly pink shirt Johnny Allen wore!

As most people will say, 2006 was not great, really...but it did have some really good bits to it. Get Johnny Week was a personal favourite of mine, too.

Mine too. Can you jog my memory a bit about 2006, Doc? I don't recall much about it!

Didn't seem as if there was much going, tbh, but here we go!

Sonia/Naomi
Ruby/Juley
Grant/Jane
Grant's exit
Ben hurting Freddie
Little Mo's exit
Rosie and Demi's exit, with Keith throwing a plate at the door!
Sharon's exit
Ruby's overdose
Ruby's mugging
Juley's exit
Billy/Honey/Janet Down's syndrome
Arrival of Brannings/Foxes/Wicks
Pauline's exit
Get Johnmy Week
Ian and Dawn's fake wedding
Sean's arrival
Pat/Patrick
Audrey/Aubrey
Johnny's heart attack and death
Jake's exit
Ruby and Stacey lying to Jean about Sean
Ruby's (emotional) exit
Ian and Jane's wedding

Top of my head. So A LOT happened this year and although most of it wasn't very appealing, you did genuinelly get some really interesting storylines to hold your interest. I'd much rather sit down and watch any of 2006 than the crap we have now...although I've really enjoyed the past week.

Yeah I seem to remember most of that - a pretty good year I reckon! I remember what an absolute breath of fresh air the Brannings were back then; hard to imagine now!

I didn't really like quite a lot if 2006, but quite a bit of it was really nice. As bad as it got at times, still beats this era by a country mile (IMO).

For sure. And I know it's a myth that 2006 rated badly, but that was only really for Emmerdale clashes. Athough they were down a lot on 2005. Still, though, a lot of people were still watching...

Will post some more stats tomorrow, if anyone's interested...

That is an appalling figure for Emmerdale. Still, maybe that's what it will take to get Blackburn out.

The Hot Weather/Lighternights have affected the soaps this week (Naturally) It's clear looking at the share compared to the ratings.

Everything is down Except the BBC3 EastEnders repeat which is up on what it normally is but given it's 10:00pm that's no surprise.

The Heat wave is over and Temps are supose to return to normal from now

Fair City peaked at 524000 with their Tuesday episode for week ending March 10th. 521000 and 516000 for the Sunday and Wednesday episodes. Fell on the Thursday, to under 430000 probably due to clashing with Emmerdale

With respect, Dr. B, I don't see what you're trying to prove? It's just a load of statistics without a context.

They're just figures on old viewing figures. I was bored.

Although a little more respect would be appreciated. Those figures were extremely difficult to get, and it took me about two hours to find them...

Well, nothing in particular. I just thought It'd be interesting to see ratings from such a long time ago. Nothing wrong with that.

correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that really bad for ED considering a major character was leaving?
