I agree, tonight's episode kicked every attempt at drama Corrie has tried for the last year out of the picture.

Only Tracy/Charlie death is near it. It wasn't just the stunts tonight but the acting from Honey/Billy and the general feel - it was exceptional.

I thought that tonight's show was utterly AMAZING and i think that this is Eastenders at its best. No matter what it's criticisms have been this really is pure gold and the story is action packed yet sensitive. WELL DONE EASTENDERS!!!! Very Happy

Fantastic episode last night,The main reason i'm a EastEnders fan all comes down to the way no other soap can touch them when it coming to doing Drama.

There's a nice thread on Emma Burton over at Ds who makes a very good point.

"Just over a year ago a producer on a rival soap said this actress could never move an audience.

Well last night she proved she was far better than most of the current female actresses in his own show.

Talk about sweet karma."

I forgot about that too.

had the children in my class worried and they're only 6

one thing confused me. when terry was asking micky where Jase was he said he couldn't send them round to their house because summer was in there and Terry says 'do you think we go around beating up babies, or words to that effect.

how did terry know summer is a baby?

If you're going to quote posts from nobodys on Digital Spy, at least pick ones that make sense. "Karma" is the force produced by a person's actions in one of their lives which influences what happens to them in their future lives.

What this has to do with an actress who may or may not be getting better is anyone's guess.

EastEnders is to pioneer soap's first single-hander episode featuring only Walford legend June Brown.

The special script sees June's character Dot Branning reflecting on her life as she records an audio tape of memories for her beloved husband, Jim (John Bardon).

In the moving 30-minute script written by Tony Jordan, the character speaks about life through the war, those she has lost, those she's loved and how much Jim means to her.

An EastEnders source told Digital Spy: "June is a much-loved actress and a brilliant performer.

"It'll be a treat for EastEnders viewers to watch one of Albert Square's longest-serving and most cared about characters reminisce about her past. It's a sure bet that the names of her husband Charlie and son Nick will crop up!"

They added: "The script is fantastic and we have no doubt June will make it one of the soap's best ever episodes."

EastEnders' first ever double-hander came in October 1986 when Den (Leslie Grantham) revealed to his stunned wife Angie (Anita Dobson) that he was filing for divorce.

Since then, there have been various other uses of the concept, the most notable over the years occurring in July 1987 between Dot and Ethel (played by the late Gretchen Franklin) and in October 2001 when Kat Slater revealed that she was, in fact, Zoe's (Michelle Ryan) mother, and not her sister. This episode drew a massive audience of 16.9 million.

The special Dot single-hander is due to be filmed and broadcast early next year.

Last month, EastEnders won the National Television Award for 'Best Serial Drama'.

has anybody noticed that the kitchen in Pats's house is the wrong way round, with the stairs on the right the window should be on the left looking out into the yard, like the slaters.

Does something like that really matter? I don't mean to sound picky but gosh.

Also, why don't you ever start your sentences with capital letters, you and Hyma do that.
