Couldn't find a thread for this. I looked. Honest!
How far behind are we Eastender fans in Virginia compared to everybody else...
Right now, Mel was just informed that her dead husband laundered drug money through fake businesses with her name on the paperwork. Mmm, Tamzin.
Thanks, everso. "Everso" copyright TC

I love this show!!! In NC we are in 2002 world, at about the same place you are. Janine is a prostitute and Mark and Lisa are getting ready to get married.

Thanks...I can't go to the BBC website because it spoils too much.
Apparently, Dot Cotton is immortal. Cheers to England where overweight, balding, middle aged men (The Mitchell brothers) are sex symbols. |

This is one of my favorite shows! I believe people in the US are generally 4-5 years behind, and to different extents depending on where you are. I live in The
SF Bay Area and until recently we were somewhere around 2001 - the last episode I saw was right when Steve and Mel are planning to leave Albert Square, and
Mark told Pauline he and Lisa plan to go with them. I know something big is coming up but......
it seems to have been taken off the schedule... I'm devastated and can't figure out what happened. Until a month or so ago they were running two episodes a week on Monday nights on KTEH, but then they just stopped. Does anyone else in the area know what happened? EastEnders has been a staple of my life for close to 15 years and it sucks to lose it. I know there is a torrent site where one can download the current EE episodes but I forget what it is. Dot Cotton is my favorite. SPOILERS: Bianca and Rickaaaay are returning to the show in 2008!! |

I already have an idea of the general plotlines.... a few years ago they were showing EastEnders on BBC America (almost real time, just behind by a couple
weeks) so I was toggling between the two - watching old episodes on public TV and the newer ones on BBC, and I spent time reading up on stuff on the BBC
website. It sucks knowing what I'm missing out on seeing. The current plotlines that I'm reading about seem really dull. I hate that so many of the
original characters are gone for good.
(Spoilerish) I think the only original cast member still on the show is Ian. |

Looks like Eastenders is going to acknowledge the death of Mike Reid by having a funeral for Frank Butcher. |

Is anybody watching this? I download it and watch it real time now. I'm desperate for someone to gossip with about it. I don't think Tanya really ran
over Max but I can't figure out who she would be protecting, unless it was Abi or Lauren.
ETA: Petrition to change the thread title to "Mitchells and Brannings and Slaters, oh my!" |

Done & done. Thanks for bumping. Virgina/DC fans just found out about Tom's brain tumor and Phil is chasing his baby in Portugal.

you rule SWM!
I missed a good 5 years so have no idea what you're talking about. they stopped broadcasting EE locally (SF Bay Area) a couple eyars ago, and at the time it was right after Dan kidnapped Mel and Steve Owen had to pay ransom to get her back. I think Steve Owen ended up getting killed shortly thereafter but we never got to see it. Boohooooooo.... Then by the time I found a place to start downloading current episodes, a few months ago, I'd missed a whole slew of storylines. I missed all of the Moons coming/leaving, the return of Den, Vicky and Sharon, most of the Sonia/Martin stuff and the Slater girls all leaving. It sucks. But the site i download from has been reposting blocks of past EE episodes so eventually I hope to catch up on it. If anyone's interested just PM me, and i'll tell you where I'm going. The current stuff is pretty good. I get sick of the Brannings and Stacey but Bianca is back and better than ever!!! |

Sorry you missed Steve's death. He went out with a bang :^) Walford.net has episode recaps going back a decade or so. Get this...our PBS station is showing
shows more than 6 years old :^0
