Can't believe this doesn't have a thread!

I'm still reeling from this, what a phenomenal episode for both soaps

If my mum was well enough, she ABSOLUTELY would've watched this. Emmerdale is her favourite soap, but she hasn't watched Corrie in ages.

Wow that was such a fantastix ep and a ahowcase of both soap's talent pool!

I thought the whole thing was kinda dull. The explosions looked nice, the biggest revelations were all ED related with Cain's diagnosis, Graham returning from the dead (like Clare Devine) and John suddenly being dead.

Steve looking at Jai and tells Cassie that he looks like one of his old work colleagues as a nod to Chris Bisson’s Corrie character Vikram. I wish James Barton wasn’t killed off in Emmerdale so they could bring him into this and have him talking to Tracy for her to tell him that he looks like her ex Charlie

I wss waiting for this thread!!! Watchin iy noe!!!!

I agree what a phenomenal episode. Well to cast and crew.

Even the crap actors, like the one who proposed, did a decent job, as the director directed them well.

Eastenders needs to watch and learn

It was a good enough but it tried to conclude 2 many storylines from each soap and it felt a bit rushed and not doing justice to either.

Billys death seemed totally pointless and I'm not sure what benefit it will bring to corrie.

I’m surprised so many thought this was successful/ good. I can’t see it do anything for either soap to gain new viewers.

I wish they’d brought back Adam Barton and Jason Grimshaw and have them come face to face to have the real life brothers on screen together

Hardly anyone died true ans I did disagree with them killin off Billie. They should use these to cull dead wood.

Steve "recognising" Jai was a brilliant call back to the actor's time in Corrie as Vikram

Sad to see Billy die. I liked him. He took Theo's bullying to the grave then...

It would have been funny if Dev was the one who recognised Jai and shouted Vikram only for Jai to say to him that you got the wrong guy

I've just started watching both again from New Year and I thought this was a perfect crossover. Plenty drama (with LOTS of questions raised ) and the recap at the beginning of their own respective episodes was very welcome (saves Joseph having to explain what's going on and who's who to me every night )
