EastEnders fans distracted by outrageous detail in background of Albert Square scene - but can you spot it?
EastEnders viewers were distracted by an outrageous detail in the background of an Albert Square scene. An old episode of the BBC soap featured a particularly notable headline on a newspaper stand. According to a fan on Reddit, the headline for the fictional Walford Gazette seemed to be about chicken yoga. The viewer penned: 'I love finding these 'made up headlines'.' 'I couldn't help but notice the headline on Walford Gazette probably says 'Chicken Yoga Takes City By Storm',' they added, followed by three chicken emojis. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The fan went on, 'Seriously, Chickens do Yogas?' and ended with a laughing emoji. It's not the first time eagle-eyed viewers found themselves distracted by background details in the show. During an episode in April, Jean (Gillian Wright) entered her home and pushed a pram through the doorway. She left a voicemail for her granddaughter Lily and was trying to find out where she was. Jean was looking after Lily's daughter and her great-granddaughter, Charli. Though the pram appeared to be empty when she entered the house, the camera then panned to show Charli sat inside it. Some viewers noticed the blunder and took to social media to point it out. One posted on X: 'EastEnders are really getting lazy when it comes to checking their scenes before adding them into the episode cause tell me why Jean's pushing an empty f****** pushchair then suddenly a child's in it #EastEnders.' Someone commented: 'Omg I did not notice this lol!' Another said: 'I was laughing so much when I seen this big L from the camera man.' While a fourth wrote: 'I noticed this too.' Someone else said: 'Oh dear lol.' While another added: 'I was watching an old episode of Brookside and the same thing happened there too.' Elsewhere, fans all made the same joke after a glaring Sonia Fowler blunder during a live episode in February. The nurse (Natalie Cassidy) welcomed her baby girl into the world after she was trapped in the Queen Vic during the fire. Viewers were worried that the youngster wouldn't survive after staying quiet after being born. Some viewers noticed the blunder and took to social media to point it out Sonia, Bianca Jackson (Patsy Palmer) and Lauren Branning (Jaqueline Jossa) were over the moon when she finally started crying amongst the drama. By the instalment many fans pointed out the same thing about Sonia's daughter - that she had some how managed to dramatically grow in size throughout the live ep. One wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter: 'Sonia's baby has tripled in size within 5 mins… #EastEnders.'

EastEnders fans distracted by hilarious detail in the background – did you spot it?
EASTENDERS fans were left distracted by a hilarious detail in the background of the action - did you spot it? Eagle-eyed fans usually spot slightly more subtle details in the BBC soap. 4 4 4 Taking to Reddit, a fan shared a screenshot they took of the BBC soap's local paper, Walford Gazette. On display in the background of a scene, the headline read: "Chicken Yoga Takes City By Storm". The viewer penned: "I love finding these 'made up headlines'. No spoiler. "I couldn't help but notice the headline on Walford Gazette probably says "Chicken Yoga Takes City By Storm." "Seriously, Chickens do Yogas?", adding a laughing face emoji. It's not the first time EastEnders fans have noticed funny details. Fans highlighted a gaffe in a recent scene featuring Kathy Beale. After spending the night with Harvey, Kathy sent him a text message saying: "Miss you already." However, viewers spotted a major blunder when Kathy held her phone upside down. Taking to X - formerly Twitter - one fan wrote: "at least try holding it the right way round #EastEnders". Shock EastEnders death rocks Walford as major secret is revealed Another replied: "Awe leave her she's old and trying to figure out how a phone works." A third joked: "Well she could see enough to be smiling about Harvey so it did the job." Viewers also previously spotted an editing blunder - with a character seemingly appearing out of nowhere. Jean Slater had been looking after her great-granddaughter Charli but was determined to find out where Charli's mum, and her own granddaughter, Lily, had got to. As she walked through the door, Jean was clearly pushing an empty pram as she could be heard leaving a voicemail to Lily. Jean Slater's biggest EastEnders storylines Gillian Wright has played Jean Slater on EastEnders since December 2005. The star was only supposed to be a guest-character in a storyline with her on-screen daughter Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner), who would struggle to look after her. However she soon became a regular on Albert Square and has since been involved in some major storylines. Jean is known among the square for having bipolar disorder and issues with her mental health. The first storyline involved Stacey getting help as she was forced to check her into a psychiatric hospital for her own safety. After her first departure in 2010, she made a dramatic comeback where she was put in the centre of a major storyline. She embarked on an unlikely relationship with Michael Moon (Steve John Shepherd), however he tricks her to give him a large sum of money. As a result, she becomes the prime suspect of the murder of Heather Trott (Cheryl Fergison) before he scams her again to pay for his wedding to Janine Butcher (Charlie Brooks). The actress decides to leave the soap again in 2013, so bosses decided to introduce actor Tony O'Callaghan as love interest Ollie Walters. After he confesses his love for her, she then moves down to Brighton with him. After several guest returns, she made a full-time comeback in 2018 alongside Kat (Jessie Wallace) and Mo (Laila Morse). She was later put at the centre of a major storyline when she was diagnosed with Ovarian cancer. Having got through the door pushing the empty pram, a close-up shot then zoomed in to reveal Charli sat in the pram. One fan raged at show bosses: " EastEnders are really getting lazy when it comes to checking their scenes before adding them into the episode cause tell me why Jean's pushing an empty f***ing pushchair then suddenly a childs in it." Another added: "I was laughing so much when I seen this big L from the camera man." EastEnders airs on BBC One and iPlayer. 4
