I want the soaps to have a vacation this summer.
Like I want eastenders to have a week in blackpool, Southend or that coastal place where they film Broadchurch.
Corrie can have a week in France. Emmerdale can have a week in Scotland. I like when they do those little getaway weeks

Me too, sadly, I think the BBC budget cuts make that difficult now, plus those weeks away from the Square are often horrific (teen camping trip anyone?)
Not sure why ITV might not look at it, probably cost too Would be good for soaps to utilise the cities they are in/near some times |

I can just imagine Eileen and Gail stranded at a french vinyard, knocking back the wine and throwing some classic shade at eachother.

Gail could surprisingly be at one with nature, which riles Eileen up. So Eileen goes to pet a bull and it drop kicks her

Corrie already did this last summer with Beth, Kirk and the gang going camping and it fell flat.
Though on the other hand, it is nice to see some location shooting for a change |

Not bring in new characters that can't act, but focus on main characters like the platts and grimshaws on holiday or something like that. It can be done well with actual effort put in. |

It must surely at least be less expensive to have a bit of a getaway in the UK if they were strapped for cash?
![]() They should cut the absurd pay check they have everyone under if they are needing to better manage their money. ![]() Also, it's pay cheque, not check. There probablt isn't one budget for EE, they'll be a wage budget and a filming budget (and otehr budgets), it's likely to be setup like that |

The Websters holiday in France years ago was brilliant
Definitely need more holidays, even if it isn't abroad. |

EastEnders visiting Spain was fantastic. I also remember the trip to France. I swear for that one they changed the titles to be a spinning map of France?!
Another one would be good! But who would go on holiday as a group that would be able to hold a hole week of episodes? I guess all of the Carters? Or even the Mitchells and Beales together? |

EastEnders should have one last jaunt to Portugal for Peggy with all the family including a 3 hander episode between Peggy, Sharon and Phill
