Often see the actor at the darts

The actor being Derek Martin - didn't know he played darts

In the audience at the Lakeside I mean lol

Ahhhh I see - in the audience - watching the darts at the Lakeside lol - oops

From lake to

River Thames

Which can be seen on the EE opening credits.

River Thames which was also seen from above when Stacey departed by plane, in 2010.

Anna Wing played Lou Beale, and a wing is part of a plane obviously

Great character Lou Beale - the Beale matriarch played by (the now late, I think??!) Anna Wing.

Yes died only last year

Plus Wendy Richard died about 3 or 4 years before that

Sad, like when the original Mark died

Oh yes - of course another actor who died - original Mark F actor David Scarboro was later to be replaced by Todd Carty - who's Mark incarnation was later to be killed off in 2003 - that was sad

Peggy - another character played by more than one peeson

Martin Fowler (I think, could be wrong??!) - another character who has been played by more than one actor / person.

Yep, think so....wee laddie was different

Ok yes - true, wee laddie lol

Derek Branning (lol) was another - Jamie Foreman was a re-cast from when Derek last appeared alongside David Wicks, in 1996.

Reenie Branning

Before my time, tbh. Don't remember her - have heard of the name though, Jim's ex-wife if I'm not wrong

-----

Lucy Beale - was recast 3 or 4 times??

The last time was under Kirkwood in 2010 with Hetti Bywater taking up the role before Treadwell-Collins killed Lucy off, in 2014.

Tragic way to go

Terribly tragic way to go - a sad way to exit IMO - has led to a good SL tho, or will do.

Can't beat a whodunnit

The good old soap classic - can't beat a whodunit, no less.

Or someone finding out about their partners affair

Or a "who's the daddy" / dramatic pregnancy revelation

Soap staples
