It does sound very Corrie doesn't it! Richard Hillman anyone?

Didn't Marlon have a chat with Tricia after she died in Emmerdale?

I don't see what you hope to accomplish by dragging other soaps into this. I'm not too keen on this upcoming storyline myself, but there's no need to use it for ammunition in another Soap vs. Soap war.

This might be nothing to do with Cindy; but a more a consequence of the new Lucy storyline.

I am too keen on this upcoming storyline but I am interested to see how Eastenders tackle this storyline and how it is used.

I wouldn't say Eastenders is the best soap but it is still good at the moment- it has been getting better for a while now.

We havn't seen the storyline so how can we comment. Obviously Cindy isn't comining back from the dead it's someone playing a sick joke.

If this storyline means EE isn't best soap, then neither is corrie because they done near enough exactly the same thing.

2. Who said Eastenders is the best soap?

3. Yes, it is the best soap

This is a stupid thread just designed to cause trouble. I can only imagine the op must be jealous otherwise she wouldn't have bothered.

Jealousy is a terrible thing.

Yes, I totally agree.

You know, I'll have to get a date with ZOMBIE CINDY! and I'll let you know how it goes, alright?

Its a very traditional soap style plot, and it'll no doubt have a twist if true.

Corrie V EE, not interested, they're both different and neither are better than each other as they're both different formats. One is more 'down to earth' in style the other is 'sitcom laced with drama'

It just annoys me that the storyline is so similar to the Hillman Hoax cards in Corrie. If the culprit turns out to be Peter or Lucy I'd honestly be apalled. I just hope EE has more sense than that.

I don't think EE would be that stupid, I'm sure they've seen how unimpressed people were with that predictable story.

Maybe its the return of Steven....
If not my other suspects are Jay, or the two Mitchell sisters or Cindy staged her death which is impossible vecasue she had a funeral!
It does sound David Platt-Esque but this sounds more sinister with the writing on the wall. It doesn;t have anything about it being the best soap loads of stories get recycled from soap to soap like the Tom King out the window...Joe form EE out the window, potential baby plot in EE and Corrie.

In Hollyoaks and Emmerdale when people spoke to dead people it was to show a mental detiroation and was well done!

This is rediculous how can you get txts/emails from a dead person???????? and if they are going done the fake death and she was in witness protection how lame bringing back another dead character to boost ratings.

he gains enemies by the look of things !

I agree with you. The OP is obviously craving attention and has felt he can achieve it by starting this thread.

Also, in relation to the issue, as far as i can remember, EastEnders ISNT the only soap do do something along the lines of "Ghosts":

HOLLYOAKS:

Mr. C in appeared as a Ghost.

EMMERDALE:

Trisha Dingle appeared to her husband Marlon after she had died.

HOME AND AWAY:

When Alf Stewart was suffering from a brain tumour, he kept sseing his late wife Ailsa (although she was not a ghost exactly she did return to the show as as a type of apperition after the character had died).

So u see OP, its not unusual at all.
