Hey Im back everyone. I went to Elstree for a third time on Tuesday 14th October so if anyone would like to see my photos just PM me or if you haven't seen any of my Elstree photos just PM me and I will show you all of them. when I have been there have been a couple of woman in their 50s and some in 20s and 30s and people in 40s as well so its just not young people who go older fans go as well.
Would you like to see my Elstree photos. The cast get asked not to stop especially in their cars but its their choice at the end of the day like Danny Dyer stops a lot in his car and Harry Reid and Ricky Norwood walked out after they finished filming so they stopped and some of the cast if they are not in a rush stop if they come out during there lunch break. From other photos I have seen Jake Wood stops sometimes and Shona stops quite a lot and Maddy stops quite a bit and Kellie Bright stops quite a bit and even Adam Woodyatt, Steve McFadden and June Brown have all stopped before. Im going back to Elstree next year in the summer hopefully on my Birthday which will be Monday 27th July but Im going to plan it probably in March and book a hotel in April. One day I would love to live in the house near where cast come in and out and then I make let a few fans sit in my front garden and make lunch for them and do hot chocolates for them. A woman who lives next door to where the cast come in and out was speaking to a few of the fans. A few of the younger fans love Sam Strike and Harry Reid and James Forde and there are some pictures of a couple of girls who have pictures hugging harry Reid and James Forde and two fans giving James Forde a kiss on each cheek. There is a sign about loitering and not taking photos that have been there for a long time but lots of the cast stop. There was a gate up but now the gate has been took down now so fans can sit or stand round the corner instead of right outside one house so its more better and when I went recently we were all quiet. |

Also one the people who I met and Im now friends with on Facebook has met Danny Dyer so many times at Elstree .. A couple of fans are really good friends with Shona now and some fans are good friends with Jacqueline and when its Jacqueline's birthday or Shona's birthday they get them gifts. Jacqueline thanked some fans on twitter and she knows quite a bit now for the gifts she received. Some fans have met DTC before.

Even if they are well behaved, just having a lot of strangers on the syreet for hours on end would prove a nuisance or even intimidating to many people. And they shouldn't really have to move to get away from it, and the house prices could even be affected if they did want to move. I'm glad you're back on here and that you had a nice time. |

If I ever move to Borehamwood/Elstree you have to promise to come then and then you can sit in my garden and I will do you a hot chocolate then.
That would actually be the solution, get fans to buy the houses closest to the set then they won't mind! |

Oh that is a lovely offer. I hope it extends to me as well!

I agree with that it would be better if Eastenders fans live in the houses near the set and then when fans come to Elstree then maybe some of the fans could bring out hot chocolates ect and let them use their toilets ect. |

Would you provide hand soap in your generously extended offer of toilets? If so how many varieties and what scent will they be? |

Absolutely. Hot drinks and snacks in the cold months and then cold drinks and ice cream in the summer.

It is a normal street with home owners and maybe some people renting and the houses go for sale every now and again - http://www.news.com.au/finance/real-...-1226589073857
The owners are paid a fee for use of their houses on filming days. They agree to not modify the exterior without consultation - not too unusual as plenty of areas in Melbourne have heritage overlays and therefore exterior changes in those areas need planning approval first. Pin Oak Court in Vermont South is a long way from the centre of Melbourne which probably discourages random visitors. |

There was a coffee shop (either Starbucks or Costa, can't remember) really close so that's not actually a problem.

I'd much prefer it if you catered directly in your house near the gates. If it's not too much trouble a couple of decent courses to choose from would be just excellent for dinner. No need to provide anything more than a light lunch, and perhaps a continental breakfast or bacon baps.

I'd need to know exactly which beforehand. Also please ensure that there is both a downstairs lav and an upstairs bathroom available. I would like the option of each depending on my mood and the ambience.
