The scene with Ange and Pat was pure brilliance. You’ll never get quality soap television like that anymore.

[@Kibouo]

The scene with Pat and Peggy in the ice cream van was close though!

She's dead now!

[@lance694]

@@emkay1365 I normally find it kind of cringe when people come to KZbin comments sections the second news breaks that a celebrity has died and acts like they're bestowing some well hidden factoid in an effort to be able to claim "oMg! FiRsT!!!!!111!111," but being an American, I probably would have seen the news otherwise, so, like, thanks for being thirsty! ❤️

Characters like Pat are my memories of soaps. My parents watched a lot of eastenders and coronation Street when I was growing up. So many memories of iconic moments with Pat, Dot, Peggy, Phil and others. Pat was definitely my favourite though

Eastenders in them days you could relate to things as it seemed normal everyday life. Nowadays is as if they need to make it like a movie, murders around every corner all to far fetched, that why I gave up watching it. 80s was great time for TV.

[@ultraviolettigerlily1517]

Mowersandstuff i couldnt agree more, the 2000s were quite good as that was the time I was watching it but since the 10s it’s gone downhill and stopped watching it around 2010 time. It’s kind of like “how many characters can we kill off within X months” etc now..
