Ahhhh the good old days of EE when literally everyone watched it. Stopped watching Eastenders in 2010. Soon after the who killed Archie story and haven’t been back since.
1998-2003 when I was a kid watching it were the peak years. 04-06 were terrible. Then when the Brannings came in and the whole Max & Stacey affair started it was pretty good again. Then the Mitchell sisters I liked too. But after the who killed Archie storyline it became tedious. And apparently it’s at its worst now by all accounts. Still it’s nice to revisit the good old days when they had a bunch of great characters. Should never of killed off Steve owen. And Matthew rose should of been bought back for sure.

I agree but start of 2004 was good with barrys murder and janine and 2005 was amazing the dens murder storyline

[@VictoryRRR]

It's absolutely dreful now. One of he worst eras it's ever had.

[@seank135]

@@VictoryRRR So I hear. To be honest I hardly know anyone who watches it anymore.

[@denzel9086]

@@seank135 The show was at its best when the Mitchell's and Branning's were at the absolute core of the show.

I first saw Eastenders in 2007 when Stacey,Tanya and other girls were partying.
To me Best Era was 1999-2011

This would not be justice in any sense of the word ??? If it was an accidental death and both are not guilty of murder and the man who accidentally killed is not guilty of manslaughter: then: it is not possible to convict the man who just helped him hide the body of manslaughter. You could not even charge the second man with anything but accessory after the fact: and to be guilty of that: the man who caused the death would have to be guilty of manslaughter.

Well obviously. The jury didn't know that's what happened because the actual killer lied, so the jury made a mistake.

[@circle2867]

wait how did they come to this decision? i wasn't watching it much back then. surely steve's prints would've been on that ashtray? also how can they make such a huge call with no witnesses.

[@laidbakboy88]

[@vinnydurham8964]

This was dumb really. It was self defence by Steve.
