Any EastEnders fans out there??
I don't know if this is all re-runs or still being filmed...

I just started watching this show and fell in love with the story-line about Frank and Pat's affair.

But tonight they showed the one where 15 year old Sonia has her baby and didn't even know she was pregnant. SO heavy. One of the heaviest one's I have seen.

Does anyone know if this is a re-run or not?

1. Oh GOD no!
Save us! That shit is so depressing!

They are certainly still filming them; it's on three times a week (or is it four?) on BBC1. It sounds like what you're watching is several years old though. Frank has been gone for some time. They even brought Dirty Den back. That really smacks of desperation. Me, I even got rid of my TV so I don't have to see that shit any more....

3. It's 4 days a week now
But the station that runs it in Seattle only runs it twice a week. We used to be 10 months behind-now its more than 4 years, and the rhythm of the story is fucked up. I watch Corrie and Emmerdale too. I miss Old Blighty.

2. Yes I have been watching since 1990. There are no reruns in soaps

the episode you are talking about ran in late (November) 2000. It is not a rerun. I don't know where you are located, but I am at about the same spot-a couple of weeks ahead.

EastEnders started in 1985 and Pauline and Ian were original actors left. Frank and Pat Have been on the show since the mid 80s.

4. Hi, I been watching Eastenders for years
the show you talking about is old, Sonia gave her baby away.

BBC America used carry the show and for some reason stopped, made me very mad, but my local pbs station shows episodes from a few years ago.

www.bbc.co.uk/eastenders/

This a great website to get started with, and there are more, just search the internet. :hi:
