There is an unpopular opinion thread on Walford web forums so I thought I would get one started on here.

I liked Kareena and Adi Ferreia and want them to return one day.

I liked Eastenders jazzy theme tune.

I prefer Kat without Alfie. She's a much better character on her own. The first two years Kat was in the show, she was popular and well established as a standalone character. She proved to be this yet again when she split from Alfie in late 2011 which continued through most of 2012. These days, she is heavily associated as a double act with Alfie. The writers and producers like to split them up, but it sadly remains temporary.

Grunt and the Banshee should never return and the Philth should do us all a favour and finally shuffle off this mortal coil.

That last event will never happen of course because TPTB regard the Mitchells as totally untouchable - unlike all of the other legends that were treated so very badly over the years.

I agree with you completely.

Also: The Carters suck; especially Nancy. Shirley should have been the only one on the show.

The who killed Lucy plot has completely destroyed the Beales, especially Ian. I doubt I will ever be on his side again which is sad because Adam is great and had the ability to make me hate Ian at the start of the episode with his actions and then be completely on his side come the end but this feels too far.

Agreed. I cannot stand Alfie! He drags Kat down and I hope Alfie as a character will die.

Agreed. I HATE PEGGY! If Grant returns I bet there will be a return to the Grant/Sharon/Phil affair borefest. My unpopular opinion is that I wish Sharon Mitchell will be killed off by Gavin! Maybe accidentally as EE won't go down the road of him murdering his daughter deliberately but yes I'd love for both Phil and Sharon to be killed off in a story where Gavin cuts the brakes on Phil's car resulting in a fatal crash. I can't stand the Mitchells!

I can't stand Peggy either.

Out of all the actors who played Ben, Joshua Pascoe was my fav. Harry Reid is awful and one of the worst actors on the soap. He makes Danny Dyer look like Laurence Olivier.

I hate Kathy and hate she has been brought back. Hated her first time around too. Think Gillian Taylforth is rubbish too. The hype about Kathy and the way some people are acting like she is the great saviour of the show is ridiculous.

I like the Carters even though the trend is to slag them off on here.

I haven't missed Max at all.

I like the new dark Abi.

Whitney is so much better now she is with the Carters, but I hate how they are trying to model her appearance on Kat Slater

I like Kat AND Alfie.

I don't think losing Pat harmed the show at all. She was a spare part.

Gavin is a ridiculous villain. A fit young man like Ben should be able to tackle a frail looking 70 year old pretty easily, actually so should Phil even though he's not at the peak of fitness. Not only that but Gavin has been out of the country for years pretending to be dead and yet he can supposedly get a bunch of heavies to do his bidding. What's he paying them with? Oh yes, he's supposed to be broke. So a 70 year old can get some minions to work for him and not pay them. ha ha

I don't think the Carters have been the saviour of EE but rather the opposite.

I don't think Shirley Carter is some flawed tragic heroine.

I think 2015 has been one of the dullest years in EE history.

I think it was wrong to kill off Lucy Beale.

I think Jay is a useless and very irritating character, that should be axed ASAP.

Even duller than 2012 and 2013?

I agree that Kat works better without Alfie now. I liked them together and their happy ending during the original stint but I think now could be a good time for them to split and have Kat standalone again.

Grunt and the Banshee should never return and the Philth should do us all a favour and finally shuffle off this mortal coil.

That last event will never happen of course because TPTB regard the Mitchells as totally untouchable - unlike all of the other legends that were treated so very badly over the years.
Couldnt agree more Keyser, a Babs Windsor return is totally unnecessary and if Philth left tomorrow I would be happy.

I liked Zoe Slater.
Me too

I find Abi unbelievably irritating.

I don't buy Sharon as 'Queen' of Walford.

I wanted a challenger for Phil but I didn't want him to go soft.

I would like Minty to return.

I completely agree, and would go one step forward and say that Alfie without Kat is also a much, much better character. I much prefer him when he's not being written as a doormat for her 'dirty girl'. Apart they're great characters but together they just drag each other down.

Max and Stacey should get back together. They have great chemistry together.

I think the Carters are the best thing to happen to the show for years...especially Mick and the lovely Stan.

Kathy should never have been brought back from the dead. It would have been more interesting if just Gavin had survived.

I dread Grant coming back and having him ruined. I'd rather remember him with fondness and as a young bloke. One ageing Mitchell brother is one too many.

They need to get shot of Babe and Elaine. I'd rather see Buster and Shirley back in the Vic.

I want to see Masood himself back as the central character in his family...Shabs just doesn't do it for me. She's no Zainab, that's for sure.

Not sure how unpopular an opinion that is these days. I'm sure most would agree that Alfie's horrific.

I don't think Shirley is "Queen" of Walford

I don't like Mick and Linda as a couple.

I really don't like Ronnie and I wish she would leave.
