Was there an episode where the camera pulled up from a bird's eye view of Albert Square and kept going further and further up until it morphed into the usual map of london? I can't find it anywhere on youtube but I'm sure this happened around the time of the 25th anniversary.

Could it have been one of the 25th anniversary trailers?

Yes, it did happen. It was the two-hander episode between Max and Stacey in March 2010.

Yes, it was a two hander between Stacey and Max, in March 2010! More AMAZING work from Santer! It was a very good episode, I remember it! I hope they do an episode like this again, in the future.

Thanks!! Glad to know I'm not crazy hahaha.

It's very impressive. I wonder why they used it for this episode? Would have made sense to use it for more of a landmark episode but I guess a two-hander is still a good choice.

It was Stacey's first episode since confessing to being Archie's killer so I think they used it as a way of marking that.

It did happen. Some posters are getting it wrong saying it was Stacey's exit and the 25th birthday episode. It was a two hander episode between Max and Stacey when she explained all about killing Archie.

I think he got very complacent and got a bit obsessed with the Brannings. He had overstayed his welcome imo, which is a shame as I think the last couple of years in the show tarnishes his reputation as a great writer.

Yep, Scrabbler's right.

He was one of the show best writers, but most of his episodes over the last few years was just big coveted ones mostly involving the Brannings, he was series consultant through both BK and Newman's era as well, I think DTC made the right decision he current team are good and his got a nice selection of decent writers new and old.

Nice little exit shot there though, I do not remember it.

Another two-hander is long overdue. Maybe we can get one between Ian and Lucy's killer.

I think it was the end of the 2 hander episode with Max and Stacey when he tracked her down and confronted her about killing Archie then decided to keep quiet as it was what Bradley wanted. It'"l be March or early April 2010.

I thought the idea behind it was that panning up to Heaven where Bradley was looking down on them.

They did some nice stuff with the credits in 2010. They should do some more now we're leading up to the anniversary.

This was when Stacey left: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oXICmcosN3Q

I loved the credits during the two handed episode, I certainly wasn't expecting it! I thought it must have been made using google earth or something similar.
