Fans Tell BBC - Get your camera work sorted!...


EastEnders viewers have complained of motion sickness following a particular scene in the soap that featured shaky camera-work.


The episode in question first aired on July 14, and featured Christian Clarke (John Partridge) and Zainab Masood (Nina Wadia), in a discussion about Christian's relationship with Zainab's son Syed (Marc Elliott).


During the short scene, the camera appeared to wobble, with strange camera angles in comparison to normal EastEnders scenes.


Several fans took to BBC's Points of View online forums to comment about the odd scene, with one viewer writing: "Oh, what was with the wobbly camera? Surely, BBC isn't so bad off that it can't afford to buy EastEnders a tripod."


Another viewer added: "Am I the only one who thought the camera angles were bad during the Christian and Zainab scene? The camera was shaking and the angles were just all over the place."


Viewer Marie Marshall, 41, said: "It was really weird. At first I thought my own telly was playing up but then I went to another telly in a different room and it was doing the same thing.


"The picture was shaking so much it made me feel like I was sea-sick. Whoever was holding the camera must have been shaking a lot."


A spokesperson for the soap said that they were aware of complaints made about the scene, but have yet to offer an explanation for what happened, according to The Daily Telegraph.

We have also noticed that another episode that aired the same week also had wobbly camera's during a Billy and Julie seance.

I totally agree! I thought it was going to imply that Christian was going to kill/attack Zainab!
