How do you pronounce Luftwaffe"? Is it a good sign if you can't pronounce it correctly? Comedians Kathryn Mather @beforenowafterthen and Spring "Kathryn" Day @springkathryndaycomedian are Watching EastEnders From the Very Beginning on @LAFSUK YouTube channel to marvel at how much fictional London has changed since 1985 and how much it hasn't. Episode 6, AKA 'One Man's Trash' picks up where episode 5 left off. A swishy cop on the beat is investigating teenage trouble maker Mark Fowler for stealing a Nazi Luftwaffe that is possibly connected to a local murder...Also local corner shop is confronted for selling teens cigarettes by Arthur Fowler because if you're not employed you might as well get involved in a good cause We find out more about the couple that own the corner shop Naima and Saeed Jeffery whose marriage was arranged and are struggling. to be accepted by the residents of Walford. Meanwhile, Lofty Holloway, the local coward, exhibits a moment of remarkable bravery. We witness a doctor making a house call to deliver some sage newborn baby care advice "don't slap 'em" . Watch us give you the highlights and dish on the lowlifes of Walford London with daytime telly swear words. #eastenders #bbceastenders #eastendersspoilers #eastendersfans #eastendersedit #walford #eastendersfollowers #eastenderscharacters #classic80sTV #80sTV #80sNostalgia #ClassicTV #dirtyden #nickcotton

One of the reasons comedians Kathryn Mather (@beforenowafterthen) and Spring "Kathryn" Day( @springkathryndaycomedian) are Watching EastEnders From the Very Beginning is for Spring to get filled in on a lot of British culture she missed out on that's imbedded in the average British psyche… like the fact that the EastEnders theme song's name is "Anyone Can Fall in Love" and has such ominous lyrics about love, Spring's surprised it's not a country song. In this episode 5 of EastEnders we meet the new character single teenage mum to a premature newborn aka the punk Mary who has moved into Reg Cox's old flat which she accidentally locks herself and her baby out of...We also discover Lofty has either bought nazi memorabilia off of Mark Fowler or he has gone all in on questionable Indiana Jones and the Raider's of the Lost Arc movie merch... Is having a pint of beer at a work lunch a good idea if you're a builder or anyone with adult responsibilities? Also, is having never been somewhere before a legitimate reason for Lou Beale to reject an all-expenses-paid holiday to Clacton-on-Sea?! We're watching EastEnders from the very beginning to see if there ever was truly a "simpler time" and to feel morally superior to fictional soap opera characters life choices written 40 years ago. It's a lot of fun. Thanks for watching! We'd love to hear from you

Record unemployment; get rich quick schemes; and lying to keep your job; fictional London in 1985 doesn't sound all that different from real London in 2026. Comedians Kathryn Mather@watchingeastenders and Spring Kathryn Day @springkathryndaycomedian are watching EastEnders from the very beginning because they both have OCD and can't start near the end! It's loads of fun as there is a murder investigation underway as well as a MLM scam that traveled the world via chain letter, power harassment and a house party. Join us as we judge the life choices of fictional characters from 40 years ago. You'll feel better about yourself because you are better than kissing your boss's wife in front of him, or at least we think you are.
