Overview

  • The Sun, citing an anonymous 'telly insider,' reports a BBC Three and iPlayer documentary would feature cast members and air alongside connected episodes later this year.
  • GB News and the Daily Mail repeated the claim and said they had asked the BBC for comment, which has not been publicly provided.
  • Coverage describes the proposed programme as examining how misogynistic ideologies spread through social media in greater depth than regular episodes allow.
  • EastEnders is currently exploring these themes through the character Joel Marshall, portrayed by Max Murray.
  • Recent storylines have included non-consensual sharing of intimate footage, an assault on public transport, and recorded encounters involving Avani Nandra-Hart.
