It features a new alleyway with garages — which all the gardens back onto.

Production Manager Rona McKendrick, who has been working on the BBC1 soap for 30 years, said: “We’ve got a new back alley as it were — the back gardens.

“Even the foxes like it because they’re actually pooing on the grass.

"It’s real fox poo. It’s not stunt poo.

“It’s a lovely new area — a road with garages.

"We can expand storylines and show different areas of Walford.”

EastEnders airs on BBC1 at the new time of 7.30pm, Monday to Thursday.
