@bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer Stacey is old enough to make her own choices. After everything she's been through she needs a break. I get Jean is missing her but taking it out on other people isn't gonna help #EastEnders

@bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer This episode was very poorly done. Was it a first draft? The pacing was glacial on all scenes related to getting harry out and so many scenes of Teddy and George in teddys place saying they needed to find harry, it took them 5363 hours to actually GO look for him. TERRIBLE.

@bbcquestiontime @BBCSounds @BBCiPlayer To say hundreds let out over 4 years I'd say it's really hard But not to fear unlike Tories if there's a problem to fix Labour will sort it Having ID Cards would solve it overnight by the way

@KeyworkerMan @BBCiPlayer Sunderland? Lots of flags from lamposts up there, no doubt. The very areas that were affected worst by Forage and Breaks It, ie the shitholes, are falling for it again

@DavidOlusoga @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Empire was the worst mistake we ever made. Attempting to bring civilisation to savages was a fool’s errand. We need mass deportations.

@newswatchbbc @BBCBreakfast @BBCiPlayer You have got to be joking! It's a massive issue! They shouldn't be judging! Attempting to play it down. Just report it! Tell it how it is. How dare they try to surpress that kind of news!

@DavidOlusoga @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Fck me getting a biased historian who only tells one side sums up the BBC. Of course, his take is Britain is awful or the BBC wouldn't have gone with it. And all the clowns on here saying how great it was - all "progressives" I assume. Thickos.

@DavidOlusoga @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Mughal India was a fractured mess in serious economic decline before the EIC and then the British RAJ rescued it; heck, the EIC won control with considerable help from natives.

@bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer Can't think of many times over the years where I've thought the acting was this poor and it doesn't help that her storylines are trash too. (Anthony's weird obsession, Sharon scouring the earth to find the love child) If it's an Xmas who done, it can't come soon enough.

@DavidOlusoga @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Will it be about how terrible British people are and therefore we need infinity migrants?

@bbcquestiontime @BBCSounds @BBCiPlayer No we haven’t forgotten the debacle of the previous governments Prime Ministers (5) the worst including Chancellors who used taxpayers money like it was there own personal bank accounts except their forgotten Income tax and had to pay a 30% penalty to the HMRC £4.8 million

@newswatchbbc @BBCBreakfast @BBCiPlayer Yes. Should be more on child poverty and other major issues facing the country. 37k immigrants get far too much air time.

@BBCiPlayer Why is the quality not that great on shows that are in UHD? Very apparent pixelation and noise using the app on my TV while Netflix/Prime are a lot better.

@BBCBargainHunt @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer Get rid of the expert Lesley. She ruins the whole show. She makes it hard work to watch.

@Sidewayssince @bbceastenders @BBCiPlayer I’m just thinking all might not be as it seems with him maybe 🤔 I wonder if he’s got a vendetta against Zoe! Maybe not, who knows. Oh definitely about the video, that’s awful to see for them isn’t it 🥺

@bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer What I don’t get is okie had time to order a van, bundle Harry into it… in the time it took Teddy to walk across the road. Rediculous. It’s like Eastenders is trying to be the worst soap on TV.

@bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer I had a feeling that Kat was going to suggest some form of therapy or professional help for Zoe. I hope that if Zoe does go ahead with therapy that Tommy also has this as well following the Joel ordeal. Joint family therapy for Kat's family right now could be good #EastEnders
