Obsessed with the idea of Clare being a weird substitute mother for Lexie and encouraging her bad behavior. #EastEnders

Karen Henthorn will leave a hole in the cast. She does understated kitchen sink drama at pro level. 👏👏👏#EastEnders

Come on with this. These men are on blood pressure medication and in bed by 9pm. #EastEnders

Linda's doing Nanny and the Professor drag for Nigel's wake and I think Elaine walked in with an open bottle. #EastEnders

Sam walking into Nigel's wake. #EastEnders

Anthony Skordi as gangster-of-the-moment Russell Delaney is saving this Mark plot from being completely unwatchable. 👏👏👏 #EastEnders

Of course Julie is leaving. Wadey has no interest in what viewers want to see on his show. #EastEnders metro.co.uk/2026/05/20/e...

I'm actually surprised Oscar is now boning brother and sister at the same time. I didn't think Wadey would make his most popular new character this reprehensible for plot. #EastEnders

The role of Mark needs angsty emotion and conflict to show on his face. All we're getting is a gassy grimace. #EastEnders

Yeah, Priya's definitely with child. #EastEnders

Laura Doddington and Angela Wynter making timely soap opera magic today. 👏👏👏#EastEnders

I don't believe that Lauren's gone from fretting over money for Jimmy to planning a life of crime that could land her in prison and unable to care for her sons. #EastEnders

Could we have just one love triangle with some romance and not a choice between shite and shite? Vicky looks like she's facing a firing squad on her wedding day. #EastEnders

Max, to Lauren: "Sike! I was gonna give you half the business anyway but I decided to treat you like crap and add to all the other misery in your life just for shits and giggles." #EastEnders

As if the gruesome threesome scenes aren't bad enough they want to teach us a game? #EastEnders

Cheers to Sam for actually doing something to help Mark but you know she'll screw him over and dash at some point. #EastEnders

An angel gets its wings every time Elaine pulls something out of her bra. #EastEnders

How would Max have valid insurance on a stolen car? #EastEnders

Wait wait wait. The grand plan is to steal Lauren's cars and burn them so she'll be desperate enough to sell cars for Mark? Bit OTT. #EastEnders

I could do without Josh's sexy voice to Oscar. #EastEnders

Lauren's life is so grim and miserable. I hope she rides Frankenmark like a stallion. #EastEnders

Admits he used AI images and exhibit closes, but it's because of the critics? Hmm. #EastEnders metro.co.uk/2026/05/18/e...

Just got to series 20 of Midsomer Murders and the debut of the fabulous Annette Badland in her Judi Dench drag. #EastEnders

Wild theory: Patrick saying Oscar is a Trueman on NYD is about Jasmine, not Josh. Oscar and Jasmine are maybe engaged or even married and she's been forgiven by Patrick. But she finds out about Josh (Christmas Day?) and begins her not-so-secret psycho revenge plan. #EastEnders

Why does ar Nicola look like a character in a murder mystery DVD game? Don't use AI to do photo retouching. #EastEnders

If Russell Delaney is Nicola's father, I know who should be his next love interest. #EastEnders

"The night that changes everything" sounds a bit OTT but we'll see. #EastEnders metro.co.uk/2026/05/15/e...

Beyond The Gates Spoilers May 18 – 22: Someone Dies and a McBride Has a Stunning Reunion soapsspoilers.com/beyond-the-g... #BTG #BeyondTheGates #Gatekeepers

Wild theory: new gangster Russell Delaney is Nicola's not-actually-dead father. #EastEnders

Did someone spike my drink? WTF is this Traitors AI car fire nonsense? #EastEnders

Feckin' hale these Oscar and the twins scenes are painful. #EastEnders

Sam's taken a sinister turn with her ill-timed plot to make Lauren a criminal. #EastEnders

I'd care about Mark if we got little glimpses of the guy he used to be before he went full-time hulk. #EastEnders

Nothing Eddie's saying matches up with George's memories during the first story. #EastEnders

Why is Nicola keeping baby Ivy in the same room with Eddie? Hasn't she ever watched a horror movie? #EastEnders

Are these Lauren and Mark scenes meant to be sexual heat? It's all weird and clumsy. #EastEnders

Hoping that a fictional character who's in the way of your ship gets murked is still bananas. You know that, right? #EastEnders

Cheers to everyone who said that granny Emma was going to return to Walford with Phil's child. #EastEnders

Reaction shots shouldn't look like you forgot your line. #EastEnders

What's with the butch gangster slap fighting? #EastEnders

Christopher Fairbank is just brilliant. I can practically smell Eddie and you know that POS stinks. 👏👏👏 #EastEnders

Prawns on toast? English cuisine never ceases to amaze me. #EastEnders

Why is this story so boring? Is it a Gen Z thing? #EastEnders

I stand by my theory that Eddie is setting George up for a murder charge. #EastEnders

I stand by my gross theory that Bea's going to seduce Will. #EastEnders

Still weird to me to see a soap character get drunk just because, without it being the obvious start of a very special plot in which everyone learns something about themselves. #EastEnders

Kathy's drunk again.😍 #EastEnders

Eddie, Gray and Joel potentially all being on this 30 minute show at the same time is just too much. #EastEnders

Constantly bringing back characters from previous eras might be the biggest self-own a soap show runner could do. There's no creativity in this kind of nostalgia. #EastEnders www.radiotimes.com/tv/soaps/eas...

This Eddie returns plot is not off to a good start when it requires George to be so dumb. #EastEnders
