1986 : Arthurs breakdown - Den/Angie divorce papers

1987 : Christmas in Pete Beales flat, with the Fowlers, Beales, Lofty, Den, Simon Wicks etc - Annie Smith in hospital

1989 : Boxing Day treasure hunt organised by Arthur - Cindy goes into labour (this was not an xmas day episode but was a good one!)

1992 : Mandy goes home to try & find her mother on Xmas day - Arthur is in the middle of his affair - A happy ending (for a change!) of most of the square residents including Phil Mitchell, celebrating Xmas in Pauline's house

1993 - Beales first christmas without Pete, celebrations at Kathy's flat.

Theres a few for you.

It seems that back in the day the whole show used to revolve around the Fowler/Beales and The Watts, then The Mitchells, Slaters and Now Shane Richie , Jessie Wallace and Nigel Harman :yawn: .

I quite like the 1 where all the mitchells are in the Vic and theres a big argument, between Kathy, Phil, Tiffiany, Grant, Peggy, Joe and Lorraine. think it was 1996.
Quite like the 1986 with Den and Angie, The 1 where Sharon left the 1st time was good too

I thought that Jamie's death was awful....eugh

EastEnders' best Christmas/New Year was Little Mo and Trevor when she thwacked him with the iron.

The twacking with the iron was indeed grand, but it's 1986 for me. I remember sitting there watching that epsiode in complete awe.

Hear hear, that was a brilliant episode - you; me and 31m others were very happy that day . 2001 was really good too.

Aye they did this last year the weekend before Xmas. There are some brilliant storylines and Xmas episodes from the past 19 years.

Yeh that was quite hard to watch, but a brilliant year for Enders. We had that, also that year Phil found out on Xmas Eve that baby Louise was his. Sharon blurted it out because he'd been hassling her to have a kid and once she found out Louise was his, she lost all interest in Phil. She also left the Square on Xmas Day that year too! lol Phil confronted Lisa in the Square, after a phone call to the Fowlers in which he just said "I want to see my baby"

New Years Eve was just as good, in one action packed episode we had Phil, Lisa and Mark rowing over Phil being allowed see Louise. We had Pauline and Peggy's classic over the bar slanging match, meanwhile over at the Fowlers Trevor broke in and terrorised Little Mo before she whacked him with the iron. Little Mo then flees to the Slaters in which she cries "Its Trevor! I've killed him!"

Minutes later, walking past the Fowlers after a row in the Vic with Mark and Lisa, Phil hears his baby crying. He kicks in the door and takes Louise back to the Vic, causing uproar once again.

I was on the edge of my seat for that episode.

Yes it was John Yorke who was Exec Producer at the time wasn't it, great. It would be cool to see his name at the end of Enders credits again, Executive Producers Kathleen Huthcison and John Yorke

Yeh I think he was, theres been one or two Albert Square been banged up for Xmas. Grant Mitchell was locked up when Tiffany said he pushed her down the stairs, an then Beppe the local bobby at the time backed her claim and tried to frame Grant for attempted murder. We all know the swine got out and eventually drove Tiffany to her death courtesy of Frank and the bonnet of his car.

Was Arthur also in jail one Xmas for scamming the Hamper club money? And Dirty Den yes was in jail for Xmas 88. Although I forget what for.
