I think you're the only one. Can't stand them myself. I see them similar to the Ferreria's myself which were dull and lifeless.

Although i do like the woman who was also in that crap Jasper Carrott comedy on Friday nights.

Why? It's iconic, most people would recognise EE by that opener and music.


I agree, though perhaps they could remake the visual using better quality pictures.

The opening is OK as it is, if they remade it with better pictures from today it would show how dingy the East End really is. The Masoods (as someone has mentioned) are just a remake of the previous asian/indian family who started up the Argy Bargy (sp?). I don't really like them that much as they are acting as they think everyone else acts like, which makes them look stupid. The other family never fitted in niether and were written out within a year.

It's EastEnders, of course it is! Laughing

What ever happened to the di Marco's Italian on Bridge Street? Seems to have dissappeared as it's not been mentioned/visited for a while!

Eh? That closed years ago and became the Argee Bahjeee (possibly the WORST restaurant name/play on words ever).

The Masoods are carbon copies of every other nasty/spiteful/agressive family to have come through the square in the last decade.

No wonder they "fit right in", according to a poster here.

I watched EE for the first time in ages last night. Why is Peggy suddenly penniless. I thought the Mitchells were well off, after all they've managed to buy the same pub 3 or 4 times in the past.

Why can't Grunt or Phul help her out?

I've noticed that EastEnders always appear to portray Asian men as being a bit slow and stupid Rolling Eyes The 'dad' in the Masood family is no exception.

why is the dad in this family called Masood when it is the family sirname

the di'marcos left in 1998, keep up Rolling Eyes

Haha, typical EE then, not even remembering their new characters names now? jee.

I don't watch EE anymore but I saw a bit the other night and I must congratulate the scriptwriting team on remembering that Jim Branning was not appearing at the dinner table with Dot.

Unless of course John Bardon was written out when he had his stroke anyway, in which case comment invalid.
