Ronnie swaps the babies

History has been made on Eastenders as the controversal "cot death baby swap" story line has recieved almost 9000 complaints. More than any other story line in the soaps history.

As of Saturday, the BBC is reported to have received around 8,400 complaints about the storyline, in which Ronnie Branning, played by actress Samantha Womack, swaps her cot-death son for Kat Moon's baby.

A further 400 are reported to have complained to media watchdog "Ofcom", bringing the total number to nearly 9,000.

Personally when I was watching this the first thing that I thought of was, "WTF is wrong with these writers? This is too far"

Eastenders executive producer Bryan Kirkwood has noticed these complaints and Is aranging for the story line to end as soon as possible, at the start of spring time and more complaints are predicted.

He said:
