    Watching The Vampire Lestat and the quality for the latest episodes recorded are terrible - tried iPlayer version and the same. Had to turn sound right up (I have checked other shows so not my hearing!) @BBCiPlayer

    @BBCiPlayer I run my bedroom computer off my living room computer with a Sky TV box. I'm constantly being asked to renew my login to BBC iPlayer. Please do somethins about this. It's really toublesome and annoying.

    @bbceastenders @BBCTwo @BBCiPlayer Please please please come up with better storylines than this. It had potential but these last few weeks have been so rushed to a conclusion that wasn't even satisfying just for the meme potential. EastEnders really is going down the toilet. Fix it please!

    @sinton_alison @BBCiPlayer I did. It was like watching a car crash in slow motion

    @bbclaurak @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer Right.. I don’t recall, I can’t remember, I wasn’t aware, I didn’t spend much time in my kitchen, I never visited my mother in law, I never checked the funds despite warnings of issues, I never suspected Peter blah blah.. I know nothing!

    @thelizcarr @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer We just need it regulated and the awful status quo rectified.

    @bbceastenders @BBCiPlayer @bbceastenders made some errors. Why was Jack wearing a surgical mask and apron in one scene with Denise, and the following day he, Chelsea and Libby wore no mask? Surely, with Jordan in the hospital as well, they can transfer germs to each other.

    @k_heyrab @bbceastenders @BBCiPlayer Would you rather he be boring and soft like he was a while ago? Also therapy doesnt always work, sometimes you end up worse

    @bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer Hope they bump Mark off. He's a terrible character.

    @bbcquestiontime @BBCiPlayer @BBCNews You chickened out a bit there - no Hitler or Mussolini. Normally, you put on the worst right-wingers.

    Bernadette Shaw (@bernadette67_a) reported

    @shellthestig @bbceastenders @BBCiPlayer So is Oscar….definitely signs with him. Jean has behavioural issues in addition to bipolar. And Bert & Ernie act strangely but they might just be terribly bad actors! Not sure this is necessarily miles off for a Square of people.

    @bbcquestiontime @BBCiPlayer @BBCNews So, in using the license fee for this ****, you’ve just opened yourself up to legal action from people who do not wish to have this drivel forcefed to us. Great work

    @bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer What was that poor attempt fire effect at the end of tonight’s episode? That CGI fire was absolutely terrible.

    @bbceastenders @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer Awful.

    @Janekelly25 @BBCiPlayer At least it is not a picture of a gazelle. Hopefully the adaptation was done by someone more willing to familiarise themselves with the work.
