EastEnders Unknown Facts (2023): EastEnders is a British soap opera on TV that has been on BBC One since February 1985. It was made by Julia Smith and Tony Holland. The show takes place in the East End of London in the made-up borough of Walford. It follows the lives of the people who live there and their families as they go about their daily lives. Within eight months of the show’s first airing, it had reached the top spot in BARB’s TV ratings, and it has always been one of Britain’s most popular shows. Four EastEnders episodes are in the all-time top 10 most-watched shows in the UK. The Christmas Day episode of 1986 was the most-watched show of all time, with over 30 million people watching it.

EastEnders Unknown Facts (2023)

1. During the affair storyline between Stacey Slater and Max Branning, Jo Joyner, who plays Max’s wife Tanya, didn’t read any of the EastEnders scripts other than her own. She thought her acting would be better if she didn’t know what Max did behind Tanya’s back, and she thought she could better explain to herself why Tanya wouldn’t suspect Max of cheating if she didn’t know what he was doing.
2. The number of calls to the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) went up by 60% because of the story about Kat Slater and her uncle Harry. The head of the NSPCC liked how the story dealt with the topic in a direct and sensitive way. He came to the conclusion that people were more likely to report any problems with child safety because of it.
3. The Queen Vic’s drinks aren’t as real as they look. People use water to look like vodka, water with burned sugar to look like whisky, and watered-down apple juice to look like white wine.
4. Dot Cotton gets most of her clothes from thrift stores, and every Christmas Day she wears the same dress. It is the oldest in the clothing department and almost as old as the soap.
5. Before she joined the Spice Girls, Emma Bunton tried out for the part of Bianca Jackson.
6. Danniella Westbrook has said that she was so affected by cocaine in 1995 that she kept messing up her lines, had to do take after take, was always late and needed prompts, fell asleep on the spot, and even passed out while standing at the top of the Queen Vic stairs while filming. Ross Kemp caught her and kept her from hurting herself.
7. There were 51 people from the EastEnders cast on the live episode of February 19, 2010.
8. In August 2007, when actor John Bardon had a stroke, the character of Jim Branning was written out of the show. Bardon came back to film four episodes in the second half of 2008 and returned for good in August 2009.
9. The character of Stacey Slater was created especially for Lacey Turner after she auditioned to play Demi Miller.
10. Originally it had been planned for Chrissie Watts’ trial for the murder of her husband Den to be screened. However the idea was scrapped because the actresses Tracy-Ann Oberman (Chrissie Watts), Kim Medcalf (Sam Mitchell) and Michelle Ryan (Zoe Slater) had all moved on to other projects.
11. To mark the soap’s 25th anniversary, the episode from Friday, February 19, 2010 was performed live on BBC1 and showed who killed Archie Mitchell during Walford’s New Year’s celebrations.
12. In a 2009 radio interview with Dale Winton, Barbara Windsor said that Violet Kray, the mother of the notorious East End gangsters the Kray twins, her own mother, and the wife of Mike Reid, who played her on-screen husband in Eastenders, have all influenced how she plays Peggy Mitchell.
13. Jean Fennell was going to play Angie Watts at first. Publicity photos of her, Leslie Grantham (Den Watts), and Letitia Dean were taken for the Radio Times magazine (Sharon Watts). But she was fired before the first episode was shot because the producers thought she was too classy for the part and because she tried to change Angie’s character instead of playing her as she was supposed to. After Jean Fennell was fired at the last minute, the part of Angie was offered to Anita Dobson.
14. Even though the railings around Albert Square look real, they are made of plastic. In fact, they are so weak that a grown man can’t even stand on them.
15. Barbara Windsor didn’t like the storyline in which her character, Peggy, turned Mark Fowler, played by Todd Carty, into a hate figure because he had HIV. Later, she said, “I got the worst hate mail because of it. I had a very close friend who was dying from AIDS, so it hit me very close to home. The last scene I did I went straight out and got terribly drunk.”
16. The show’s theme song was changed to a jazzy version in 1993. This version was first heard on May 11, 1993. But viewers didn’t like it much, so it was changed to a remix of the original theme song on April 11, 1994, only 11 months after it was first played.
17. As part of the 30th anniversary of the first episode airing, on February 19, 2015, Danny Dyer (who plays Mick Carter) made the public-address station announcements at Bromley-by-Bow underground station, which is the real-life station that is shown on Tube maps instead of the fictional Walford East station.
18. The (original) outdoor set for Albert Square was built on the land where the building site from “Goodbye, Pet” was (1983). Which was the last series shot on the backlot when this Studio complex was known as ATV and Central Independent Television’s Elstree/Borehamwood (“London”) base, before the studio complex became BBC Elstree? In the late 2020s, “real brick” was used to rebuild Albert Square. It was built on what had been the ATV, Central, and BBC Elstree staff parking lot.
19. William Hill said that during the “Who Shot Phil?” storyline, about 50,000 bets were made on who did it. On April 5, 2001, about 22 million people watched EastEnders to find out that Phil’s ex-girlfriend, Lisa Shaw, was the one who did it. The episode caused the third-largest power surge ever recorded, behind only the 1990 FIFA World Cup finals and the end of The Thorn Birds in 1984. The start of the UEFA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Barcelona had to be moved back 15 minutes so that it wouldn’t air at the same time as the episode.
20. “Wal” comes from Walthamstow, and “Ford” comes from Stratford. These are the two real places that inspired the made-up town of Walford.
21. Maggie O’Neill was fired from the show after only a few months because she had a lot of problems with her co-stars, especially Samantha Womack, who played Ronnie Mitchell, and Robert Kazinsky, who played Sean Slater. Some of the stories that were supposed to include her character, Suzy Branning, had to be changed. For example, when Ronnie Mitchell finally finds out that her daughter Danielle Jones is still alive, Danielle is killed in a car accident. Originally, Suzy was supposed to drive the car, but Janine Butcher took over.
22. In 2007, there were rumours that Tamwar Masood was going to struggle with his sexual identity and be the first gay Muslim character on a British soap opera. The BBC, however, said this was not true. But his older brother, Syed Masood, has taken over this job.
23. Pete Beale was meant to be a short-term character at first. It was decided a long time ago that the big New Year’s Eve cliffhanger of 1986 would be the death of a character, and that person had to have the biggest effect on the other characters. Pete Beale was the obvious choice, since his death would leave Kathy a widow and his son Ian would have to take over as head of the house. Lou was his mother, Pauline was his sister, Den Watts was his best friend, and everyone knew him from the fruit and vegetable stall, so it was planned that Pete would have a heart attack as a shock to get people interested in the show again after the excitement of Christmas. Julia Smith had “cold feet” at the last minute and decided that Pete was too important a character to get rid of so early in the show’s history.
24. After Natalie Cassidy decided to leave the role of Sonia Fowler in 2007, her on-screen ex-husband Martin Fowler, played by James Alexandrou, was supposed to kill her because he couldn’t deal with the fact that she was now with a woman. In the end, the writers decided that the couple should get back together and leave together.
25. Before 2011, there was no postal district E20 for Walford. The highest “E” code that had been given was E18 for South Woodford. But in March 2011, the Royal Mail said that the Olympic Stadium and the area around it would be given E20 postcodes.
26. In January 2008, Dot Cotton was the first soap opera character to have a “single-hander,” or a one-person episode. In this episode, written by Tony Jordan, Dot records a message for her husband Jim, who is in the hospital after having a stroke. June Brown was nominated for Best Actress at the 2009 British Academy Television Awards for her role in the episode. She was the first soap actress to be nominated in the category since 1988, when Jean Alexander was shortlisted for her role as Hilda Ogden on Coronation Street (1960).
27. The story was originally written so that the whole Ferreira family killed their pushy father Dan. However, actor Dalip Tahil could not get a visa to work in the UK, so the story was changed and Ronny Ferreira was stabbed instead.
28. In May 2007, a storyline about the kidnapping of Dawn Swann’s (Kara Tointon) newborn baby was cut because it was too similar to the kidnapping of Madeleine McCann, 4, in the Algarve, Portugal, on May 3, 2007.
29. Anita Dobson, who played Angie Watts on EastEnders, recorded the song “Anyone Can Fall in Love,” which was the show’s theme song. In 1986, it was the fourth most popular single in the UK. Don Black wrote the song’s lyrics, and Queen guitarist Brian May, who she later married, made the music for it. BBC Records put out the record. The original theme song for the show was on the B-side of the 7″ single.
30. Peggy Mitchell has the most expensive wardrobe so far, and Barbara Windsor had a lot of say in what her character wore each day. One of the most prized things on set is also Peggy’s huge collection of hats.
31. As of February 2010, only Adam Woodyatt, who has played Ian Beale without a break since 1985, is still in the show. Wendy Richard, who played Pauline Fowler from 1985 to 2006, was the second longest-serving actress.
32. Before playing Cindy Beale, Michelle Collins tried out for the part of Mary Smith.
33. When the series started, Derek Martin, who played Charlie Slater, was down to the last five for Den Watts, but Julia Smith told him he wasn’t “a ladies’ man.” He was also in the running to play Frank Butcher, but he was already working on King & Castle (1986), so he had to pass on that role.
34. Peggy Mitchell dies in this episode. As the credits roll, the camera pulls up and we see a shot from above of Albert Square instead of the usual closing credits. We then go back to Peggy’s room and zoom in on her ticking clock. When the big hand hits 10, the clock stops and the screen goes black.
35. People thought that Grant and Phil Mitchell were based on the gangsters Ronnie and Reggie Kray. In the movie The Krays, Martin Kemp played Reggie Kray (1990).
36. Steve McFadden and Ross Kemp tried to get EastEnders writer Tony Jordan to create a spin-off for their characters, Phil and Grant Mitchell, in which Barbara Windsor would play their mother, Peggy. The idea never went further than casual talks, but McFadden and Kemp suggested that Windsor play her when the show’s producers decided to bring Peggy back.
37. People say that Fasset Square in Hackney, London E8, was the model for Albert Square (just off Graham Road).
38. At the start of the show, Leslie Grantham was only hired for twelve episodes. Grantham says that BBC executives Michael Grade and Jonathan Powell watched the first episode and were so impressed with his character that they thought he should be the main character.
39. David Yallop, who used to write for EastEnders, says that it was agreed in September 1989 that Steven Beale would die in the show. This was part of producer Mike Gibbon’s plan to get more people to watch by getting rid of a lot of the long-time cast members. Yallop said, “We had to make a choice about the illegitimate child who was about to be born because of a storyline from before. We were trying to figure out what to do with it. Either they would let the child live, or it would die. They decided to make the child “seriously sick,” but it was only a short break. In episode 606, I found a solution.” He said that on his rough draught of the plot, he had written “Baby die.” The plan never happened because Gibbon was suddenly replaced as the boss of the soap and Yallop’s plans were thrown out.
40. When Sid Owen left his role as Ricky Butcher in April 2000, the scripts had to be rewritten because Mike Reid, who played Ricky’s father Frank, wasn’t there. Frank and Ricky were supposed to be in one of EastEnders’ famous two-hander episodes, but Reid’s off-screen health problems meant that Steve McFadden, who plays Phil Mitchell, had to step in. In the episode, Ricky left Walford.
41. In an interview from 2003, Nigel Harman said that he auditioned for a character named “Tim,” but he didn’t know that he would be joining the Watts family as Dennis Rickman, the unknown son of Den Watts, the most “iconic” character on the soap.
42. “One of EastEnders’ most annoying characters” was how Kim Fox was voted.
43. Pam St. Clement has more than 125 pairs of earrings that she can use for her character Pat Evans, and fans were welcome to send them to the BBC wardrobe department so that she could wear them on screen.
44. On the day of the 2010 live episode, it was said that the actress who played Stacey Slater, Lacey Turner, had the flu and couldn’t talk, so EastEnders producers might have had to rewrite the episode or run a rehearsal tape instead of the live broadcast. Turner was finally well enough to go on, but she was told she could whisper her lines if she had to. In the episode, she was able to say her lines as planned, though.
45. Janet Dibley turned down the BBC’s offer of £130,000 because her character, Lorna Cartwright, was going to be turned into a prostitute who would be gang raped. It would have been the first time the soap had shown an attack like that, and Dibley was worried that her 6-year-old son would be teased because of the “harrowing scenes.” Rumors on set say that Dibley heard about Lorna’s planned storyline and went to co-executive producer Mike Hudson to talk about it. After a few meetings, Dibley told Hudson that she wasn’t happy with the plot and wouldn’t sign a new contract. The producers were reportedly upset by her choice, “because they thought Janet would become one of the show’s biggest stars.” After that, the scripts were changed, and Lorna made her last appearance in April 1998.
46. Walford East is a made-up tube station for Walford. A map that was first shown on TV in 1996 shows that Walford East is between Bow Road and West Ham, which is where Bromley-by-Bow on the District and Hammersmith & City lines would be if it were real.
47. In reality, there are at least two Albert Squares in the East End of London. One is in Stratford, and the other is in Ratcliff, E1. The show’s creators, on the other hand, based the Square on the real Fassett Square in Dalston.

72. In an interview, former executive producer Matthew Robinson said that Martine McCutcheon, who played Tiffany from 1995 to 1999, “didn’t ‘decide to leave the show. She asked the BBC to let her come and go from the show whenever she wanted. This made it impossible for the writers to make her character’s storyline make sense. So there wasn’t much else we could do but kill Tiffany. Yes, the character was liked, and yes, Martine was good at what she did. But no one, not even the executive producers, is bigger than the show.”
73. Creators For the role of Kathy Beale, Julia Smith and Tony Holland tried out more actresses than for any other role. Both of them liked Gillian Taylforth a lot, but they knew that she was too young at 29. But Smith and Holland hadn’t seen anyone else they liked enough to hire, so they “talked themselves into it.” They changed Kathy’s backstory so that she had her son Ian when she was 18, which made her four years older than Taylforth.

    In the soap, Ian Beale tried to kill himself twice. In 1990, Cindy Beale told Ian the terrible truth that Steven Wicks was not his son and that she had an affair with Steven’s real father, Simon Wicks. He tried to kill himself by driving his van into a ship, and Jane stopped him from jumping off a bridge in 2015 after Lucy was killed.
76. In 2020, for the first time in the soap’s 35-year history, it stopped making new episodes because the coronavirus pandemic forced the government to put the country on lockdown.
77. While the “Front Lot” (real brick) version of Albert Square and other places was still being built in November 2020, aerial photos seemed to show that the main buildings now had real floors and walls inside, whereas the original exterior set was just facades. Some people have said that the E21 Project is so expensive that “they might as well have built the sets for real.” This leads to the interesting idea that the “exterior” set will also be used for the interiors, so that the whole series will be shot on location, in real buildings, on the lot, like the old series “Brookside,” which used real houses. This would also free up space in a studio at BBC Elstree, where all of the EastEnders interior sets are currently kept in all but one studio. These sets could now be used in the practical exteriors sets.
78. In October 2021, it was announced that the first UK soap opera crossover would involve Coronation Street (1960), EastEnders, Emmerdale (1972), and Hollyoaks (1995), as well as the medical dramas Casualty (1986) and Doctors (2000), to bring attention to climate change. It will be the biggest crossover ever and the first of its kind.
79. Well’ald, Robbe Jackson’s dog, acted as Russell Crowe’s dog in the movie Gladiators.
80. Nick Cotton didn’t join the original cast until the very last second. Creators Julia Smith and Tony Holland had not intended for Reg Cox’s murder to be solved – it was merely meant to emphasise the toughness of life in Walford – but their writing team all wanted to know who the killer was. Because of this, Nick was made to play the role of the murderer. Nick was added late, so Smith and Holland were not able to cast him. Instead, John Altman was chosen by the directors. Altman would play Nick off and on for a total of 30 years.
81. Diane Parish was the first and, as of 2022, only actor to play two different regular characters on the show. In 1998, she played Lola Christie for six months, and in 2006, she came back to play Denise Fox.
82. All but one of the original members of the Jackson family, who were first shown in 1993, have come back as regular characters.

83. “Stinks in ‘ere, don’t it?” was the first line of the show. It was said by Den Watts, who, along with Pete Beale and Ali Osman, found a dying Reg Cox. In the 30th anniversary episode of the show, which aired in 2015, Martin Fowler, Pete’s nephew, says the same line when he, Stacey Fowler, and Kush Kamezi find Reg’s killer, Nick Cotton, dead in the same spot.
84. Leslie Grantham (Den Watts), who had worked with June Brown on an episode of Minder, suggested her for the role of Dot Cotton (1979).
85. Kathy Beale and Pat Butcher were at first enemies because they were both married to Pete Beale, but they became best friends because their experiences brought them together. The same plot device was used again with Pat, who became best friends with Peggy Mitchell, who had married Pat’s third husband, Frank Butcher, after their divorce. Shirley Carter and Denise Fox, who were Kevin Wicks’s ex-wife and widow, respectively, would later also become close friends.
86. In the show’s maps of the London Underground, Bromley-by-Bow is replaced by the fictional Tube station Walford East on the District and Hammersmith and City Lines.
87. David Scarboro, who played Mark Fowler at first, had trouble dealing with all the press attention around the show. Because of this, the character had to be written out of the show quickly. Simon “Wicksy” Wicks, who was supposed to be in the show for a long time, was brought in much earlier than planned to fill the gap.
88. On February 16, 2016, a YouTube video dedicated to Stacey Slater was posted. The video talks about how Stacey goes crazy when she gets her mother Jean’s Bipolar disorder. The main theme from The Fly II (1989), which was written by Christopher Young, was in the video. The movie is the sequel to The Fly, which came out in 1986. In that movie, Eric Stoltz played the son of scientist Seth Brundle (Jeff Goldblum), who turned into a mutant insectoid creature after a failed teleportation experiment. Stoltz also turns into a mutant insectoid creature because he inherited his father’s mutant genes.
89. On the Internet, Jean Slater was chosen as “EastEnders’ craziest character.”
90. Some of the facts below could give away important parts of the story.

91. In 2010, EastEnders had their first-ever live broadcast to celebrate their 25th anniversary. It was all about who killed Archie, and it turned out to be Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner), but Bradley Branning died trying to take the blame. Then, in 2015, EastEnders celebrated its 30th anniversary again with a killer reveal called Who Killed Lucy Beale, which was shown live on TV. But instead of being a clear character, it turned out to be Bobby Beale, Lucy’s younger brother. But Max Branning has been accused of killing her.
92. Two times, Steven Wicks has tried to kill Jane Beale. In the episode from October 12, 2007, Steven shot Jane when Ian and Jane tried to punish him for the death of his mother Cindy.

93. In the live 30th anniversary broadcast, it was revealed that Bobby Beale killed his half-sister Lucy. Bobby’s parents, Ian and Jane, decided to hide the truth about Lucy’s murder to protect Bobby and keep him from going to prison. Later, Max Branning was wrongly arrested and jailed for the crime. By doing this, Ian and Jane have messed with the way justice works, and if it was found out, Ian and Bobby hid the truth about the crime.

99. The storyline about Stacey, Kush, and baby Arthur, in which Kush Kazemi is revealed to be Arthur’s biological father after he slept with Stacey Slater, and Stacey and her fiance Martin Fowler deny that Kush is Arthur’s father, could set up a future storyline in which Arthur finds out that Martin is not his biological father.
100. In the show from February 2, 1993, Ricky Butcher offers Phil Mitchell a shot of whisky, but Phil turns him down. This was a sign that Phil Mitchell was going to become an alcoholic.
