More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
"EastEnders", the hugely popular soap that regularly draws in 17,000,000 viewers and now runs thrice-weekly, is a community drama where people argue, gossip, laugh, fight and feud, have romances, secrets, parties and weddings and babies, but never lose sight of the fact that they are a community and that they'll always stick by one another. The stories are numerous and include tales of murder, runaway lovers, teenage pregnancies, gambling debts and kidnapped children, as well as special Christmas, and other seasonal stories. "EastEnders: The First Ten Years" is the official celebrationary book of the series with photos and interviews with the actors, and speculations on future tensions and dramas. It contains a collection of background information, character and plot development and trivia, packed into a fully illustrated excursion of Albert Square. Do you know: Who was Reg Cox and who killed him? Who fathered Cindy's boy, Stephen? Why did Arthur Fowler go to prison in 1987? What was the real reason Den Watts went to prison? Discover the answers to these and other questions in this behind-the-scenes re-telling of the programme's history and also how Julia Smith and Tony Holland created the programme. The book offers a year-by-year guide of the main story events, with a closer look at the "special" episodes, and includes a detailed feature which traces the making of one week's episodes, from the first story conference and script-commissioning meeting, right up to transmission. To round off the book, a fun piece has been included - a short story set in the year 2015 (the 25th anniversary) with computerized, grown-up versions of Vicki Fowler, Martin Fowler and Stephen Beale. A detailed appendix lists episodes, transmission dates, writers and directors.

Format:Paperback
I started watching EastEnders in 1987 when it first hit the Public Television stations in the United States and I have been an addict ever since. I have never seen a show with such variety and depth of storylines in my life. This book fills in alot of the gaps of missing months at a time - not only comprehensive, it's fun!

Therapy for EastEnders Fans
26 Oct 2003
Format:Hardcover
This book was a great way to get acquainted with the characters and storyline if you are an EE fan and did not watch the show from the beginning. Since BBCA does not air the show anymore, it helped bring me closer to our friends in Albert Square. EE fans, please go to www.saveeastenders.com to help get our favorite show back on the air.
