Chelmsford Weekly News:

Bosses of Adventure Island are very pleased to see and host the TV stars, crews and producers.

Philip Miller MBE, owner of the seafront attraction, said: "An exciting day at the park with filming of EastEnders continuing on."

The show has been coming to Southend ever since it first aired, and councillors and traders alike are pleased to see it return.

The show’s character have ventured to Southend for various storylines, beginning with a trip by the Fowler family in 1985. Pauline, Arthur and Michelle headed to the coast to find son Mark, who they discovered with a new girlfriend and her sons who called him ‘Dad’.

Even more memorably, in 2013 Alfie Moon and Roxy Mitchell were supposed to be getting married, only for him to jilt her at the altar.
