Eastenders 1990

[SirWillig]

is it me or is the river awfully plasticky looking?

[rikkisfcwooldridge]

u can tell eastenders was pure grit just by these opening titles. its nothin like it was back in the day

[unrealharry]

good wasn't eastenders better back then!

[Ch34t3rs1]

Never thought it would go this far back..

[tuzathedarknight]

Why aren't there any duff duffs at the start. Or was that before duff duffs meant something tragic or socking just happened?

[Jammers22]

@tuzathedarknight There never used to be - this is the original theme

[adzii1]

why is it a weird blue colour?

[fanclub1990]

Why ??????

[unrealharry]

Britain was so much better then...

[Guineapigbabe]

It looks like some parts of london have been burnt down!

[MA21L]

@Guineapigbabe no thats just the pollution in them days!

[barbarash]

No Millenium Dom... I mean O2... and the river was surely bluer in those days.

[PhilipAlecBoardman]

Oh look, its the old opening titles!

What's different from the new, is that this one isn't in widescreen

And there isn't that logo under the title

Looks better, I know

But at least they didn't change the theme tune!

(to the tune of the EastEnders theme song)

[WorldRecords]

Good old UK Gold, that's when they used to repeat decent episodes of Eastenders.

[drstoo]

WoW Google Earth must of got the idea from Eastenders.

i mean , come on? Yeah , now thats funky, surley.

ps i,ve written a poem for bbc radio 4 about eastenders google east earth end. (meaning the view)

[CharlieChelseaComo]

whats the difference between the 1985 credits and the 1990 credits????

[BCJ1985]

The 1985 ones are played out on film and so look all fuzzy and horrible. 1990 ones are on tape and appear much cleaner/less grainy.

[bobbyjic]

AGHHHH THE MELLENIUM DOME IS DISIntergrated!!!!!

[tomjune1983]

this was 1990 there was no dome you fucking dumb twat!

[BobbyProFilms]

[megzi8002]

[CAFC2K8]

megzi:

[teyhar]

wow I didn't know they used to put Chlorine in the thames! God, those Thatcher years eh!

[keepbritaintidy]

the river looks so blue compared to now!

[nickdababe]

a little bit the same as the now 1!!

[angelicMisha]

goodness me, not as dramatic as it is now (the theme tune). Sounds like a lacluster ice-cream van

[yoohoo81]

ahh the good ol days when Enders was good!

[pugilistofpower]

they've changed!

[videonut33]

The model of London used for EastEnders were created by Alan Jeapes.

[pluto1111777]
