The exterior shots of the early series were filmed primarily in and around East Lancashire, mainly in the village of Downham, but some scenes were shot in Helmshore and others in Settle, North Yorkshire. Two railway scenes were filmed on the East Lancashire Railway, but the main railway scenes were shot on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway.

Upbeat” might not be the first adjective one would use to describe a series that has regularly featured murder, rape, drug addiction, prostitution, paedophilia, gang warfare and domestic violence. On the other hand, for many millions of viewers, this garish mix has made EastEnders the compelling delinquent of British drama for the past 30 years. On 19 February, the series will mark its anniversary with a week of live episodes focusing on the mystery of who killed Ian Beale’s daughter Lucy.

The saga of England’s so-called Jew Law of 1753, made law and then repealed within six months, is a little known episode in Anglo-Jewish history that nonetheless has considerable resonance today. There are also about twenty mid Victorian terraced house on either side of Jubilee Street, the top end, as well the tenements in Lindley St and Grove dwellings off Adelina Grove.

Missing the buzz around the ground before a game; down Green Street, round Castle Street, Priory Road. And that part of the move is something that I am not looking forward to. It has nothing to do with moving into a state of the art new stadium. It goes beyond a new stadium. There is still a hospital building a short distance away from here, the Freeman’s Hospital at the southernmost end of James Williams Street. Senior BBC executives had some suggestions for serials that “mass audiences” (i.e. working-class people) might enjoy: how about a series set in a shopping centre, or caravan park? By 1984, new head of drama Jonathan Powell put in his own idea: a series set in gritty London.

A lifespan of 30 years would be a remarkable enough milestone for any television drama, but even more remarkable is the way that the series originated. The interior of Pheonic Lodge is usually closed to visitors, but the public are welcomed in during annual Heritage Open Days. This reveals the original main hall, with features such as the chair in the east end of the hall which came to Phoenix Lodge in 1785 from an older Lodge in Newcastle. This link can still be seen today in the Newcastle city logo surmounting the chair. In putting the Bill forward the Government argued that it was innocuous as it simply provided a method whereby any rich foreign Jew who had resided in England for three years, could apply for naturalisation through an expensive process that also ensured the worthiness of the applicant to become a British citizen. Applicants had also to prove that they were of the Jewish faith. The general consensus has mostly been: it will take the club to the next level. Mourning pre-match rituals Most importantly, we shall be suggesting ways that you can get involved and proposing how we can become organised to make an effective response to the current crisis. If the future of the East End is important to you, you need to be there.I hope Clyde Gateway will provide training and help these kids get the skills they need and get employment." Thus I write today to conjure into existence The East End Preservation Society as a means to bring together everyone that cares about the East End and is concerned about the future of its built environment. If we can work collectively in large numbers, we can have a stronger influence upon the culture of development that threatens old buildings and be more powerful in our individual campaigns to save them. Julia Smith and Tony Holland created this amazing cast of characters – either East End born and bred, or Asian immigrants running the local corner shop,” adds Lamb. “Now, we are trying to relate it to East London as it is now – the hipster effect, nicer restaurants – but it is still very much Julia and Tony's heritage.” That first episode drew in 17 million viewers. After a few weeks, the figures dropped to seven million, but shot up again thanks to a storyline about Pauline’s 16-year-old daughter Michelle (Susan Tully) becoming pregnant. Spital Sq – Within living memory, this was one of London’s most beautiful squares but it was sacrificed to road widening and commercial developments at the end of the last century, and only one eighteenth century house survives today.

Further towards the City are the wonderfully preserved Fieldgate Mansion on Fieldgate Street with the street running south from them to Commercial Road. The so-called Jew Law was designed to enable people to become English by naturalisation without having to swear that they were taking their oath of allegiance “on the true faith of a Christian”.There are so many memories of the place, even though the ground has gone through many changes. The North Bank, until the early 60s, was an open terrace and the West Stand wasn’t extended until the middle of the same decade. Trafalgar Square, Donnison School and Holy Trinity Church all form one side of the lane with the workhouse on the other. This photograph from the 1880s shows the workhouse building to the left with the Donnison School at the side of the lane to the right. West Ham Reserves lost 0-3, but I just loved sitting in the West Stand Upper and studying the ground; there was nothing on the pitch to hold my attention! I’m from a working-class family in East London, Poplar, Tower Hamlets and I am PROUD. Proud of the young girl who overcame obstacles, and proud of my accent! It’s me, it’s my journey, my grit.

As a result, York Square and the streets off it, much of Salmon Lane, Whitehorse Road, Bromley Street, Aston Street, Belgrave St and Chudleigh St still exist as do the Alms Houses on Stepney High Street. Over the centuries, the East End has always been a bit of a crime hot spot. Its position on the outskirts of the city, its often overcrowded population and its poor and relatively deprived conditions compared to the rest of London often made this one of the least safe areas to visit and live in the capital East End Gangsters Born and Bred first aired on 21 April 2002.

Prospect Row on the northern edge of the Town Moor is also the location of the building that once held the Prospect Row Mission, which had been set up in 1885 as a children’s mission. Now a gym and community centre, this building is the first in the world to be purposely fitted with outward-opening doors as a direct response to the Victoria Hall disaster.
