I'm quite liberal about what my kids watch on tv but I make an exception when it comes to Eastenders.
I haven't seen it for years but I catch the odd glimpse which is enough to tell me what a thoroughly nasty programme this is. There's just nothing in it to make you feel good about being part of the human race, no joy, nothing.
The ludicrous pc-ness of their storylines makes me think there's something political behind it too. I'm not having my kids brainwashed.
Of course, what really makes me laugh is how the Trendy Wendies who make this programme think they're being inclusive by reflecting the rainbow nation of which they dream when, in fact , there wouldn't be a white working class face on the show if it truly reflected reality in the east end.
