Incredible! That's the only word for it Incredible. I don't mean the programme, nor the absurd and meaningless story lines. I mean the fact that the BBC has the 60th anniversary of this tripe mentioned on every programme the BBC produces! I am just amazed it wasn't mentioned on 'Match of the Day!' Especially as they have, for no good reason, a woman doing some of those programmes now. The news mentions the anniversary, and worse, is going into detail over the latest 'shocking' storyline and debating why it is not 'shocking' at all.
This overload is another sign of the desperation these 'soaps' and their makers for an audience. The 'Coronation Street' anniversary was likewise stupidly put into the ITV news broadcasts I'm told, so the Beeb feels free to copy this and I cannot imagine how bad it will be at the next 'Eastenders' anniversary! 'Eastenders' is of course the programme that above all other events in the last thirty years has done more to destroy the moral fabric of the nation than any thing else. The idea of loud confrontation, so common at all levels today, was allowed free reign with the introduction of this vile programme. Their next anniversary will probably lead to a war of some sort!
Bah! Humbug!
