A new thing in doing called 'Soap of the Week'
Just vote for the soap that impresses you the most this week

Was it CS with Tyrone's fall, Peter's alcoholism and Liz visiting Jim?
ED with Debbie and Ross kissing?
EE with Denise finding out about Ian and Rainie?
Or HO with Finn attacking Nancy and finally beig exposed?

As much as I hate to say it I think HO wins this one
As awful as it has been recently, this weeks episodes have been the best since Esther's bullying IMO

Poll up soon

What's the point though Matt? DS is full of HO viewers, they always win polls!

Emmerdale for me, by a country mile. All the stuff with Donna's funeral, Bob's grief, Brenda trying to comfort April, and mostly Ross - Ross and April especially - has been absolutely cracking, and genuinely moving.

A proper storyline, built over months, with a great climax and a really deeply felt aftermath. Rock solid.

QUICK! Take a screenshot Cyril. ED currently has 100% of the vote!

ETA Damn, you weren't quick enough.

I have to say Coronation Street stood out for me this week. Autumn looks good too

Hollyoaks for me because they have had some of the best episodes of the year.

for me it has to be eastenders. the scenes with cindy, ian, denise, rainie and cora have been very good. diane parish has been outstanding. across the week i say eastenders deserved 8/10.

That was me.

Got to say, I heard EE had a very good week as well. It's not my soap, but fair play to them for coming back from the brink.

I only watch Eastenders and Corrie, but gosh, Eastenders wins by a country mile. Corrie is diabolical these days (although it has improved very slightly). Maddie is becoming more bearable.

I voted for Coronation Street, which is very good at present, with one exception; the producer continues to push his 2 favourites, the pointless, talentless Sophie and Muddie, in front of us. Hollyoaks would come a close 2nd , and Emmerdale would not even be on the list.

Matt, if this becomes a regular thing, can you include Neighbours in the poll, too?

EastEnders started on a low but ended on a real high note.

Emmerdale has been stunning for the last three weeks as well.

Hollyoaks for me, especially after the JP/Finn storyline came to a head. I think Friday's E4 episode alone would win it for me. It was one of Hollyoaks' best episodes ever!

If I could base it on one episode it would be Eastenders for Thursday, Mimi and Adam played an absolute blinder.

For the whole week, Emmerdale. I think it's really strong at the moment apart from James (obviously), and that new Asian family, I have very little clue who they are nor do I care.

Ross Barton single-handedly swung it for Emmerdale this week. He has been phenomenal.

No Aussie soaps included? In that case its as follows...

1. Hollyoaks
2. Coronation Street
3. Emmerdale
4. Eastenders (however, I haven't seen any EE this week so its bias when I place ED above ED )

I don't think any of the soaps I watch (EE, Corrie, Hollyoaks) have been on top form this week, but if I had to pick one, I'd choose EE.

if we are including ramsey street i think we should also include the residents of ambridge. it is the oldest soap opera in the world.

Hollyoaks by a mile for me, especially with the John Paul/Finn rape reveal this week.
Eastenders 2nd as been a few good things happening.
Corrie not interested anymore, stopped watching
