I just make comments here and there, I have a fascination with ratings data but sadly I'm not in the position to access the data without paying, so I follow the thread closely.

I've noticed EastEnders is really suffering up against Emmerdale on Tuesdays, seems more people are choosing to watch Emmerdale which could be seen to suggest it is better quality atm. EE into the 4 millions on Tuesdays.

When are the seven episodes a week going to end? How are the cast coping?
Yesterday was the last hour long Tuesday, It's back to 30 minutes next week. I read somewhere that It was just introduced for the summer, don't know why though, six was enough.

A lot of dispute on here this evening, you know how Mrs Fanshaw can get a teeny bit stressed and occasionally reach for the crossbow in situations like this.

The whole of EastEnders will breathe a sigh of relief no doubt!

I don't watch Emmerdale, has it seemed like too much, has the quality dipped? Corrie's struggling with 5 atm, never mind 7!

I'm still enjoying the show. Of course like all soaps, there are brilliant episodes and then weaker ones, but considering that they've been churning out seven episodes a week for 6 weeks, It's been very watchable and enjoyable for the most part.

Not that many posts here anymore!

I'll ask a question: what other forum sections do you go on on digital spy?
just soaps, sometimes advice but it is mostly people trolling. if nothing is happening much In soaps I will have a look at Gd. occasionally venture elsewhere but not often

Me & KK decided to part as friends because he doesn't like that I watch X Factor and I was shocked to learn that he watches Geordie Shore and couldn't forgive him for that!

Oh, and Mrs Fanshaw went to extreme lengths to keep her silky secret under wraps

I don't know how anyone can sit through X factor

I used to watch geordie shore but it is so clearly fake I am not gonna bother anymore.

If anyone watches big brother don't even tell me, just pack your things and leave the thread

Evening

Been feeling really rough all day, and a sore throat hasn't helped matters at all.

How's everyone doing?

Otto, as I call him, is in the dungeon flexing his cane. He'll be freaking out if he hears me calling him by name, he says it's too informal and I must address him as Herr Flick.

No I don't know any Lipps but Herr Flick has a lovely soft kiss!

Aw!

Hope you're feeling better soon!

Have some honey and lemon with a dash of brandy or whisky, it will warm you and the honey will soothe your sore throat.

Thank you hope you do too. How is it possible to get a cold in August? It's mad, but then again the weather changes all the time so that doesn't help.

Hello RMF, thank you!

You've missed loads on EE. The Carters have had another knees up, Kim's done another salsa class and in the background the deposed McBeale is plotting a new evil plan.

They really do, and it doesn't matter whether you buy lemon or blackcurrant they all have that vile taste.

Exactly Got to go for a jab tomorrow as well which sounds fun.
