Picture gallery: w/c 1 August 2010
It's Peggy, Peggy, Peggy, as family matters for the the Mitchell matriarch dominates our preview gallery.
Making a splash!
Pat and Peggy uncork some anarchy. But why do they appear to be seeing red (or is it rosé?) and trashing the Vic?

Get out of my...
You know the rest. Peggy makes a point, but Roxy's mind is made up. What has she decided about the future of the Vic?

Military matters
Looks like Carol's giving some their marching orders down at the recruitement office - but will end up sleeping with the enemy in her bid to find out what's happened to Billy?

Aunt we related?
Abi and Lorraine are reunited, messing with Max in the process. But will Lorraine find an ally in her niece?

Tug of love
Another family reunion, as Lisa and Louise get together under the watchful eye of Peggy. But will this gran gesture backfire on the Mitchells?

Punch line?
Well, clearly this isn't the happiest of reunions, as Peggy wipes the smile off Lisa's face with an impressive right hook. But will Phil's ex have the last laugh?

Blame and bouquets
Peggy tries to reason with Phil, but he's clearly bottling up his anger. We don't think those flowers are helping the situation, even if Shirley's clearly got her eye on them.

Sobering thoughts
Looks like Phil has had his fill. As we all know, when that happens, thing tend to end badly. Let's hope that Peggy's got his measure - and that it isn't a measure of whiskey...

Week in, week out we are subjected to miserable old Phil Mitchell and the rest of the depressive Mitchell clan (bore, snore). Now they've resurrected Lisa who for me was one of the most boring characters ever to grace the show!!! And i can't imagine anything more unpleasant to watch than Phil on crack! Oh my Lord, surely we deserve something nicer on the eye!
The Lucas thing has been quite compelling but enough already! It's just been dragged out too long and the whole family need to move on.
PLEASE PLEASE EE give us more Chryed, romantic, funny, sad, entertaining, angsty, sexy, hot, brilliant and totally watchable SYED AND CHRISTIAN!
Also love the Masoods, especially Tamwar.

I'm interested in Ronnie's storyline but apart from that, the huge amount of blowouts that family has just mean the audience won't take them seriously anymore.
That said, Lucas' storyline is brilliant - I can't wait to see what happens next. Glad to see Chyred back on our screens aswell; just another one of Eastenders' many fantastic plots!

I can remember that, a couple of years ago, there was a soccermatch and that match started half an hour later than originally was planned because everyone in the UK didn't want to miss the Eastenders-episode wherein was revealed who shot Phill Mitchell.wonderfull!
They even showed a few scenes from Eastenders on Dutch television in Studio Sport, a sportprogramm.
Who knows what Lisa's return holds in store!

No offence to anyone but Christian and Syed are just two characters with one storyline that seems to have ended with the finally getting together. The Mitchell's on the other hand are a major family with numerous storylines and a twenty year history on the show.

Eastenders - everythings going fine but you know it will all end in tears and it will probably be grey and raining.
Neighbours - everythings in a mess but you know it will turn out all right and there'll be plenty of sun!!!

She should be way more grateful to Roxy for letting her live there. And WHAT is going on with Abbey?! One minute she's all lovey-dovey with Jordan and one-sandwhich-giving minute later she's stalking Darren in an effort to make him fall in love with her (soz abs, its nahgunnahappen)..isn't he just a tad bit too old for her..and doesn't he have a girlfriend? Those Brannings always want what they cant have..
I'm really not bothered with the whole Louise situation. PLEASE don't let it be one of those storylines that drags on...and on...and on. Speaking of which, thank goodness Lucas was arrested. Now everyone can go back to playing happy families (as if!)
As for Chryed, their a nice, funny change from all the doom and gloom in EE...but do you really think that they will have a happy ending........?

The more she sees Darren, the more irratating she gets. And as for Peggy, she takes a lot of risks. Louise is better with Phil and Shirley. Even Zsa Zsa is better a person than Lisa Fowler. EastEnders being the first time, have leaked all their storylines meaning we know what will happen and when we watch it, it isn't interesting anymore. I'm finding EastEnders a bit boring than before. The characters are fine, it's the crew that leak the storylines that make it boring.
