Bust-ups and bankruptcy, marriages and murder – EastEnders is Britain’s favourite soap, with storylines that consistently draw in audiences and guarantee water cooler discussions the following day.
Set in the close knit, multi-racial community of London’s Albert Square, human interest stories intertwining relationships, social issues, triumphs and tragedies, loves and losses keep fans glued to the screen.
Winner of countless awards, including a Banff World Television Award in 2007 and a BAFTA for Best Continuing Drama in 2008, EastEnders celebrated its 35th anniversary on the air in 2020.
