Tonight EastEnders fans don their party hats as the soap marks its 15th birthday with a special episode. As this is Walford, celebrations aren't of the straightforward type, and most of the residents are confined to the Queen Vic in fear for their lives as an explosion threatens to decimate the square. Well, there's nothing like celebrating with a bang. Earlier in the evening, fans can see the winning episode in a poll of all-time greats in The Viewers' Favourite. For real die-hards, BBC Choice is devoting a whole night's viewing to EastEnders, including memorable moments in EastEnders Family Album, silly slip-ups in Auntie's EastEnders Birthday Bloomers, and interviews with the stars in EastEnders Revealed.
Happy Birthday EastEnders, live from the Albert Square set, is on weekdays at 11.00am on BBC1. (AG)
