EastEnders prompts differing views from Conservatives‏

It's certainly not realistic. If everyone behaved like they do in Eastenders we'd all be killing each other.
I'm not a fan because of the way the characters act towards each other, but it's probably truer to many people's lives than the things I like. Which is fine.
Lots of people like it, so fair enough.
I think the bit about it competing 'too well' with alternatives could indeed be part of the justification for tearing apart the BBC as the Tories, apparently, will do once they get their grubby hands on power

Obviously each their their own.
If you don't like it you don't like it.

And of course it's unrealistic, but at least EastEnders is based on real life and it's a totally different thing from the plasticky hyperactive bullying-based crap that current TV has become.

Here I explain why Eastenders is something the country should be (mildly) proud of.
