Het Oude Noorden

Het Oude Noorden was a Dutch remake of EastEnders set in the Netherlands which ran from March 1993 to July 1993 on IDTV. The first EastEnders scripts were edited by Barbara Jurgens. The majority of the performers were Rotterdammers. The plot for the first episode had similarities to the first episode of EastEnders as a resident is found dead in his room which reflects the Reg Cox storyline.

All episodes were given a unique title which was also the case for EastEnders in which the co-creator and script editor Tony Holland ordered that every script should have a title rather than just an episode number however this policy soon just transpired as the show gradually grew. There were only nine cast members, and director Eddy Habbema was responsible for directing all twenty episodes.
