Today's EastEnders was not great and was co written by Emer Kenny, I am sorry but I don't rate her as a writer..

To be fair the episode writer can only do so much with the instructions they are given by the idiotic and clueless storyliners.

I don't think even Shakespeare could have made an episode involving Bianca's money issues and Terry bouncing around like a tit interesting.

The episode of Holby she wrote was, I thought, pretty good.

Agreed.

Roxy is still going around in circles, nobody cares about Terry & Nikki- they are leaving soon. Alfie seems redundant now too and It was pretty flat. Miss Kenny is a weak writer and should not be let loose on EE until she can prove herself as a decent writer.

You clearly know nothing about writing. Emer is one of the best they've got right now, as is Sharon Marshall. Both Emer and Sharon understand each characters individual voices.

It was ok
But then like someone said above, she only did as good as what she has been given to be told to write.

^ Sorcha.

Emer's written 3 episodes. I liked her last one. The main problem with the half she wrote tonight was that it was complete filler and Bianca's money problems don't add up. Why didn't she just go to David for money, he's only been gone a month.

Well I'll be jiggered if I'd trust a writer who couldn't even spell Emma correctly.

Emer must have irish roots as that's a pure irish name. There are plenty of emers over in this neck of the woods uncle q and quite a few emmas aswell which gets confusing after a pint or 10!

I agree.

They should just cut their losses and admit they have no place for Sharon as well, even with the hyped up story line she's had no screentime. It's sad that Johnny got more screen time than her in her own story.

er how do you know she wrote that half?.

I thought tonights episode was good, really enjoyed it. i happen to think Emer is a talented writer and I think it's really harsh and distasteful to start a thread like this when she only written three EE eps not counting the spin off ones

Problem is Vaslav it's not the that she is a weak writer as such but the plot outline was naff, it was filler and totally rubbish, she didn't have much to work with to make a salvageable or watchable episode.

it involved Bianca with a repetive and lazy s/l that they're using running up to her exit, I'm actually disappointed they are turning Carol's cancer storyline it too such a farce, they done quite well with it so far and it just turning it to a joke with the weed crap.

I did happened to like her Lucy and Lauren episode way back last year.

I'm not sure what she was meant to do with some poor material tonight. The dreadful Nikki, Terry trying on Alfie's shirts, a conversation about flowers, Carol counting pennies, a fat buster club *yawn* Thank goodness for the Carters and Aleks/Roxy/Lola.
