Not sure if this has been mentioned, and I'm probably sadder than a Spanish fisherman for bringing it up (well there is the Cod crisis!)...but just how many bedrooms are there in the Slater household in Eastenders? Albert Square is to Upper Class, what Steak and Kidney Pie is to Fish and Chips...i.e Not in the equation. Yet it seems like the houses there are massive. The Slaters house inparticular would appear to have 6 bedrooms:

1 - Charlie
2 - Mo (the gorilla one)
3 - Lynn and Gary
4 - Zoe
5 - Kat
6 - Zoes blonde mate (who must have taken Little Mo's room)

Since when would a local council give out a six bedroom house to a family where only 1 person (Zoe) could really be considered a child when they were given it? Therefore they must have purchased the property. Now it seems that Walford is on the outskirts of London, therefore the price of a six bedroom property would be in the region of about £500,000+ ...the average mortgage lender would lend you 3.5 times your annual income, which means that to be able to afford the property the slaters would need a combined income of £142,857. Now Mo couldn't declare her dodgy dealings to the mortgage lender as these are not legal and it depends on supply and demand. Therefore the only jobs currently bringing money into the household are:

1 - Gary - Mechanic
2 - Kat - Barmaid (Part-Time)
3 - Lynn - Coffee Shop Waitress
4 - Mo+Zoe - Running a clothes stall (where do the clothes come from?...thats another matter)
5 - Whatever Taxi driving Charlie does...if any!

So if we take that theres 5 jobs, on average they need to be earning £28,571 each....If we then take into account the money needed for other items such as the new clothes they seem to have every week, TV licence, Food, Council Tax, Water Bill, Gas, Electricity, Beer Money (my god there needs to be alot of that), Petrol, Charlies Taxi Licence Fee - then they all need to be earning about £35-40K Per Annum

All I can say is I'm off to work in a coffee shop!

Nice one.

I am always complaining about how the Doctor never seems to be doing his job. Instead he's getting into bed with Mothers and their Daughters.

My Doctor works everyday, even Sunday she is on call to houses etc.

Stupid soap.

Fair point, also how comes Sonja and Jamie couldn't afford to get a ring back for £250 yet they seemed to be able to afford to drink in the Vic whenever they wanted, and they both had mobile phones, and Sonja had a laptop....connected to the internet...not as poor as they first look!

These Slaters make me sick: no wonder the country is in a rut.
