Think I know why a lot of these characters were written out, they were caught laughing and enjoying themselves. This was when Eastenders was mint

[@JayJay-nc7pr]

Angie was pure class, she was kind to Donna, dont get me wrong Peggy had longetivty but it was Angie who had the heart and class to run the queen vic

[@markdavies5933]

Sadly tge following year during 1988 we lost a lot of these wonderful characters Angie being one of them. Unfortunately this was the last Christmas that some of them were all in the show before there departures in 1988 and for me after this Eastenders was never the same and I stopped watching it

[@DuncanMcA]

When the whole of Albert Square seemed like one big family

Watching Eastenders on TV was one of my homeworks when learning English in London. Feel nostalgia now. Those wonderful years 💕💕🇪🇸💂Greetings from Madrid,Spain.

[@prochoicenotantivax119]

I'm not sure EastEnders is the best to learn English from I struggle with the cockney accent there are so many different dialects in the UK and they use cockney rhyming slang it obviously helped though you type excellent english

[@taffy9966]

I'm a welsh man so was my gramps but he spent a lot of his time as young man in east end London with friends he made on national service he absolutely loved the old cockneys he found them to be very friendly welcoming people 👌

[@teleaddict23]

Ethel was brilliant, much missed. All the nice girls love a sailor. Why do people not gather round a piano anymore and sing songs?

[@helenamcauley3135]

[@lorrainedavidson8227]

This is when it was at the top

[@doctorwhoproductions834]

When den got shot in 1989 thats when it started going down hill

[@markdavies5933]

[@helenamcauley3135]

[@zanducktv2398]

Angie, discreetly - “Thanks for everything you did for me Ethel, but not a word...” Ethel, loud as you like, within earshot of most of the regulars, fuelling speculation - “My lips are sealed!” Then - go Gretchen! 👏

[@84sblack]

Great stuff.

[@Ms1buzzkill]

I love it!

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

[@5516724]

[@JayJay-nc7pr]

Back when it was authentic and not forced

[@user-kl4bh4lq6r]

So true the soaps 70s 80s 90s seemed like watching real life the Actor's white black asian

[@gultenerdogan28]

Haluk Bilginer ❤️❤️❤️

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

Ang is lovely to Donna. Really caring.

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

Imagine if Michelle was worried about Vicky and Lofty called her a party pooper.

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

Look at Michelle geeting in there haha

[@PeterShieldsukcatstripey]

Whoever believes the codswallop that poms are colonialist racists just need to watch this. All lies. They have as much right to the ethnic culture and pearl kings and queens as anyone else.
