Photo spoilers: The pain of parenthood
Week commencing 1 January 2010:
It's Ronnie and Kat's darkest hour, as the horror of the New Year's Eve tragedy hits them both hard. Elsewhere, the party continues...
In shock
Ronnie's reeling over the loss of her baby, and her actions devastate Kat and Alfie's world.
The Moons mourn
Alfie tries to comfort Kat, as she holds onto clothes for her lost baby. Little does she know what terrible thing has really happened.

Hands off!
Masood and Jane really don't know how to flirt in secret, do they? Zainab looks ready to send them both into 2011 with the back of her hand.
You're barred!
Looks like Kim has entered a little too fully into the party spirit. "Does anyboy know what happened to the floor?"

Caught out?
We're sure that Glenda loves a man in unifiorm as much as any other lady, but this one appears to be on official business. Is the game up for Glenda?

Perfect parents?
Christian and Syed seem to have got what it takes when it comes to looking after baby Amy, but could they ever cope with proper fatherhood?

At 30th Dec 2010, smiley wrote:I totally understand the mothers of children who have died of cot death and the rest of the viewers who are upset about this. The baby swap is such a huge mistake. Portraying a sensitive issue like cot death is great and EE should not shy away from it. But EE are taking the most tragic and upsetting thing that can ever happen in a person鈥檚 life (their child dying) and sensationalising it by taking it to such an over the top level that it actually becomes ridiculous. They should stop the hypocrisy of pretending and justifying this as EE portraying real life issues and supposedly raising awareness about cot death.
If they wanted to do that, than they should have just done a plain cot death, like Sue Osman鈥檚 storyline in the very early days. It was such a powerful storyline, without any ludicrous subplots like the baby swap. Julia Smith created EE to portray real life issues not make up things that don鈥檛 even happen. If that is the way they are going than they should be honest about it not go out of the way to explain why something like this happens.
EE want to come up with something outrages, something to top off whatever storyline they have done in the past and that is why they have gone with a baby swap. That has got nothing to do with reality. No mother will leave her dead child behind, not even someone who has lost three children in 20 months, which in itself is ridiculous.

At 30th Dec 2010, Madonna5 wrote:What a wonderful opportunity completely missed by Eastenders.
Babyloss, including stillbirth and neonatal death, affects 17 familes every. single. day. That's Christmas Day, New Year's, Valentines Day and all of the other 'normal' days in between. In fact cot death alone doesn't reach these figures. It's a taboo subject and one that must be brought out into the light, so those, like me, who grieve the children who have died can speak openly in a society that still prefers to believe these things just don't happen and shouldn't be discussed.
Those who lose children at whatever age know the true depths of grief, and yes, grief can make you think, do and say terrible things, but in my experience and in the experience of those too many others who have lost their babies, we would never 'swap' our child; we just want our babies, not anyone else's. To add this ridiculous slant can only add to the despair we feel that society views us all as mad grieving women rather than those who are sad, and feel deeply while our arms remain empty.
It's just too far.
If anyone has been affected by loss or neonatal death, I would encourage you to seek out SANDS, the stillbirth and neonatal death charity. For those seeking advice on risks of cot death, the FSID site is invaluable. For those of us who are grieving and are hurt by the storyline planned, no matter how well acted, our recourse is the OFF button for the duration of this storyline.

Had EE covered a cot death story with the tact and dignity it deserves then it would have provided hundreds of bereaved parents out there something to identify with whilst providing the rest of us with an insight into what these parents are going through. It could have been an excellent opportunity to educate people on cot death but instead its turned into a farce.
I am blessed to be a mum to 3 and have not experienced this kind of bereavement first hand but I have seen a friend go through the loss of a child and stories like this could not be further from the truth.
I have decided not to watch for the duration of this ridiculous story and hope that EE realise the harm they are doing by giving it air time.

Isn't it bad enough the writers drag up old characters, which must be far easier to write for (lazy and unimaginative) rather than creating new and more interesting characters every once and a while. The current cast of actors and actresses seem lost, they wonder around aimlessly from bit roles to pointless plots. Occasionally, you see glimpses of a potential great storyline, but it fizzles away.
I hope the Eastender writers realise that entertainment doesn鈥檛 have to be a great long list of cringing story lines, just so the 主播大秀 can add the 鈥淚f you have been effected by this 鈥︹.
Multiple Killings, attempted murders, aiding killers to escape the law, law breaking of all kinds including paedophilia, incest, rape, theft by young and old alike, selling knock off and stolen goods, assault, husband and wife affairs, scheming and dishonesty. Please offset your storylines by at least demonstrating that Eastenders are also proud, honest and above all friendly and caring people who do have fun and love life?

Take for instance the whole, Phil Mitchell on crack burning down the Vic scenario, that was unrealistic, but everyone loved it.

At 31st Dec 2010, CazEM wrote:Julie - yes they did consult the right organisations but even they are saying they had no part in the planning of how this storyline will pan out. Their stand is this "FSID had no involvement in the planning or adoption of the 'baby-swap' plotline.The behaviour and actions of Ronnie Mitchell are in no way 'endorsed' by FSID as a typical, or even likely, reaction of a bereaved parent"
Anne we are complaining because bereaved parents are being portrayed as nutters, and no attempt is being given to show how a mother really reacts and how life really is when a baby dies in real life. And no, I won't be watching it - or for a long long while. My husband has taken it off series link. Our own daughter's death is still to raw to watch even a fictional baby die, especially when its being sensationalised like this.

It's a crying shame what happens to Ronnie's baby, i really feel for her ... after losing Danielle and having a miscarriage and then having another baby die of cot death ... you just really feel for her!
I reckon this story with Kat & Ronnie is going to be really gripping! Will be good when Kat finds out!

They`ve ruined characters who I liked such as Shirley by turning her into a thief & Pat by making suddenly her looking stupid by letting her fall for Janine`s lies, in the past she`s always sussed Janine out.
Then we have fake Lauren & fake Ben. If only we could get rid of Bryan Kirkwood. Diederick Santer was bad enough bringing back Bianca, Ricky & Janine. Pointless characters.

Why did it have to happen this way with poor Ronnie getting the bad situation again since she has already lost Danielle and her other child. We think neither babies should of been killed off!!!

At 31st Dec 2010, Emilie Fenton wrote:I'm not very happy with Eastenders recently. Ronnie should be a happy character not a unhappy one with a loss of 2 children. Ronnie should have another baby in February 2011 and it should live. But I think Ronnie should give Kat's baby back as its horrible. It's Kat and Alfie's first baby together but Ronnie takes tommy away. Give him back you bitch! EastEnders quality has gone down alot now!

, as a grandparent I have to say Charlie has let the side down really badly. Just awful and depressing, thank goodness 2010 is over.

I am 19, i have no children and yet the thought of this is such a fear as i have had a friend who lost her baby to cot death and to portray it to show people what can happen is an amazing advantage that this programme has, but to continuously destroy this character, and to create a barbaric story line such as her stealing Kats baby is disgusting. I love eastenders and would much prefer to watch it rather than other soaps and for once i am totally unhappy and completely unsatisfied with this story. I can bet your bottom dollar that women who have been through this have turnt over in the fear of remembering this horrible, heart destroying time.

At 31st Dec 2010, Dan wrote:Todays eastenders was quite good, but I had a few problems I found abit of it unrealistic because
1) Why would they leave the backdoor / the indoor to a pub open when everyones out?
2) someone would of seen ronnie go upstairs
3) All of ronnies children died? like thats going to happen in real life...
Why couldn't they both just keep their own babies instead of killing one of them. Abit stupid to me - but thats just my opinion
It was a great show though but abit unrealistic.
