Topic: Storylines of EastEnders


In the News (Wed 3 Dec 08)

  
  EastEnders
EastEnders is typical of the soap opera in this respect, maintaining at any one time two or more major and several minor intertwining narratives, with cliffhangers at the ends of episodes and (temporary) resolutions within the body of some episodes.
Eastenders strives to be realistic and relevant rather than issue-led, with the educational element professed as an incidental outcome of its commitment to realism.
This potentially depressing mix is lightened by a dose of British humour and wit, by the dramatic intensity of the emotions and issues portrayed, and by the nostalgic gloss given to the portrayal of solidarity and warmth in a supposedly authentic community.

With storylines being constructed around central characters, with high-profile media tabloids displaying every angle, with the vicious rumours and gossip circulating into the lives of the actors/actresses who portray the characters, Eastenders is certainly reaching the end.
With huge actors/actresses leaving to gain from their own star profile, ratings hitting an all-time low and writers reinforcing storylines for the benefit of the media, audiences are turning their heads to old episodes or leaving their beloved soap altogether.
Eastenders is ‘old hat’, we understand what a conventional episode is. When standards are not delivered, we complain about the state of the soap, it is merry-go round from phase one to phase thousand-and-one, but still it delivers throughout the adversity, only this time, Eastenders is about to reach another phase - the end?.
