Celebrating 25 Years of EastEnders

From the instant the now recognizable theme tune initially rang out in the nation's living rooms in 1985, EastEnders has turned into a national treasure.

During the last two-and-a-half decades, the soap's enthralling story lines have gripped the nation. From Dirty Den serving wife Angie with divorce papers in the Queen Vic on Christmas Day to Phil Mitchell's spectacular shooting. From the numerous scrapes of the Slater sisters to the second wedding of Ricky and Bianca, there has been no shortage of drama.

There has been equally as many stories off the screen and The Mirror has followed the stars during the entire journey. Covering the scandals involving stars like Gillian Taylforth, Danniella Westbrook and Leslie Grantham to the stories involving several of the soap's forgotten faces, this is a must-have magazine for all fans of Albert Square.

Including wonderful archive interviews, it looks back at the headlines made by the families that have kept tv audiences tuning in every week.

Additionally, it captures several favourites' forays into the worlds of music and reality tv, as well as offering an insight into the show from Mirror readers and columnists.
