Is Eastenders the best soap out there?

In my humble opinion Eastenders is one of the best soaps out there. The story lines are always gritty and interesting. The acting is a lot more geniune and more realistic than most other soaps. They have courage to make story lines that are a bit out there but they carry it off. At the moment I am loving it. The return of Ronnie and many of the other story lines are compelling and dramatic. The only character I dont particularly like is "Fat Boy". He just doesn't seem to fit in but Eastenders far surpasses any other soap. Since I got Sky Planner I haven't missed an episode. Definitely deserved to win the soap awards because 2010 was one of there best years. What do you think?
