- Eastenders Cracking Crew — United Kingdom, founded January 1986
The second numbered intro from Eastenders Cracking Crew, a British group founded in January 1986 — taking their name from the BBC television soap opera. No coder or graphician credits are listed on CSDb, which was not uncommon for smaller British groups of the era. Disassembly confirms the binary contains no SID register writes — the intro runs as a silent visual presentation. Released on 28 October 1987, this intro dates from the height of UK cracking activity, when British groups had first access to locally published software before it reached continental Europe. ECC was founded at the start of 1986, giving them nearly two years of activity by this release. The group left minimal archival traces — no entries on Doc Snyder's page, Demozoo, or other consulted sources beyond CSDb. Without identified credits for code, graphics, or other contributions, this remains one of the more anonymous productions in the British crack intro archive.
