MediaGuardian is reporting that EastEnders executive producer Louise Berridge is stepping down.

Not before time I say, and after comments over recent months I think Mal Young and Lorraine Heggesey also need to consider their position.

UPDATE (MediaGuardian): The new executive producer of EastEnders will be Kathleen Hutchison, currently the executive producer of BBC1's highly successful Holby City.

Louise Berridge will remain with the BBC heading a major new drama, while the official word from the BBC is that Louise has done a great job with EastEnders!

Mmmm.

I'm sure it was all because of the threads on here which invofmred us she was responsible for the upserge in global terrorism.

YES! That is the best storyline in EastEnders for a long while! Razz

I think they/she should sit down and listen to a big group of REAL people not TV People and ask what they want, not death, sadness, bed burning, that's currently going on.

I't be nice for a change, to see something go right for an eastender, with NO complications just normal.

The new producer should announce the axing of Den - a good (permanent) departure storyline for him should start to bring in viewers.

Seconded - although for entirely different reasons...

Well, they killed him off last time.

I, for one, was fairly happy that was a permanent departure!

So was I. It was the "Bobby Ewing" moment for EastEnders. Next time viewers will need to see him in a body bag!

This will be the perfect chance for EastEnders to rectify where it has gone wrong of late:

Arrow Getting rid of the Ferreiras, too little has been done to redeem them to the audience too late.

Arrow Getting RID of Spencer Moon, send him off to America with Vicki Fowler or something

Arrow Cut back on the Kat/Alfie and Sharon/Dennis storylines

I see Tuesday's episode only got 6.2 million viewers and 30% share, against Emmerdale's 8.1 and 41.5%.
