Best it can do now is just keep the remaining viewers and see to it that the people who’ve got back into it because of how much things have improved like what they see enough to stick around.

I'm glad to hear that the Show has improved for you.
Tbh I'm not much of a Soap person, but I do want to see EastEnders get back to more healthy ratings as it is an institution in the UK, just like Doctor Who.
And I understand that TV ratings are lower nowadays, I do wonder if EastEnders could've slowed down it's ratings losses if they'd have avoided certain controversial storylines that I know that a lot of EastEnders fans couldn't stand?
