Website changes
Ìý
Every few monthsÌýwe run a surveyÌýrequesting feedback on what youÌýlike on the site and where you think we can improve.ÌýFollowing on from someÌýof your comments we'veÌýgiven the homepage a bit of a makeover and made it easier to find the best content on the site.ÌýÌý
Here's a rundown ofÌýÌýthe changes...
Catch upÌýand preview clips
Catch up and preview clips are key reasons why you told us you come to the site, so we wanted to make it easier to access them. All of the video clipsÌýnow play on the homepage, and fromÌýthere you can click through to watch full episodes and read text descriptions.ÌýÌý
Ìý
We've alsoÌýmoved the script peeks to the homepage and you can nowÌýclick through to see more than oneÌýscript peek for a sneak preview of what's currently being filmed at Elstree.

EpisodesÌý
This section replaces the Catch Up and Preview pages as the place to access full episodes for seven days following broadcast. Plus, there's links to an archive of catch up clips and text descriptions of episodes.
Ìý
No changes here this week, but we've recently added in links to archive video content for the key dates of current characters. Want to watch Phil stricken by a heart attack again? OrÌýgo further back and watch him set the Vic ablaze? Just follow the links...
Ìý
The old news section has now been incorporated into the blog so that you can comment on and discuss all the stories.
The blog is now linked to in the main navigationÌýbarÌýas News & Spoilers. We'll continue toÌýpost picture and video previews, cast news, video exclusives and regular hot topic discussions.ÌýÌý
We hope you like the changes and do let us know if you have any feedback.
If you're after new games on the site - we're working on it :)

msloveit and Carole - unfortunately we're not able to offer the video outside of the UK but you can see the text summary by clicking on the link to 'Watch full episode' from the homepage or going to the main Episode page and clicking on the episode you want.
Unfortunately, because of the system we use, we have to add the text summary to the page the day after the episode is on TV but we'll get it there as soon as we can.
For example, here's the text summary for Tuesday's episode... /programmes/b00y9336
EastEndersfanever - the preview clips are still there and you can access them from the main area at the top of the homepage.

She always made to look like a clown and she's always being taken advantage of, first she gets conned out of money by Max then Alfie. I love Alfie he and Heather are my fave characters! Please can we see Heather on the up instead of being being walked over by everyone! Heather is a sweety, i wanna see her happy, healthy and being loved by someone who she deserves and by someone who really does love her! Heather rocks,and i hope that she stays on this show! Please can Heather stop being made to look fat, ugly and not worthy of someone loving and caring about her!
