Is Eastenders on the BBC a soap opera, or have they put this together as a cure for happiness?

That program is garbage

Haven't watched it for years, think the applications for shotguns go up after each episode. Didn't they have an episode on Christmas day a few years ago with a child being born stillborn ?, now that's sick

Was forced to watch it today...@ mums :-(

I always thought it was a soap, but I enjoyed it when episodes were aired over here.
