who is phil?

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 21:43 (twenty-one years ago)

phil mitchell, been locked up for some months now. billy mitchells brother.

big fat hard man

― Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 07:17 (twenty-one years ago)

he's the one with a beetroot for a head

― g-kit (g-kit), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 07:19 (twenty-one years ago)

oh, I thought phil was well out of it.

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 07:39 (twenty-one years ago)

Classic 'enders.

Phil (pointing to toilet): "Remember that?"
Ian: "No Phil! NOT THE TOILET OF DEATH!!!11!!1"

Copper: "You're soaking wet sir."
Ian: "Well I'm just out the bath (WITH ALL MY CLOTHES ON!)."

I liked the coppers surrounding Phil then deciding to take him on one at a time a la every Bruce Lee film ever. Two sore faces later they decide mob-handed might be a better strategy.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 07:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Question, is Den's body in the Cellar of the Vic? And do you think Phil discovered it when he (apparently) hid down there?

― Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 08:05 (twenty-one years ago)

And is Phil still doing that infernal sighing after every sentence?

― Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 08:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, in yesterday's episode he didn't once utter his catchphrase, viz. "I've changed."

As we never saw the ladies physically disposing of/burying Den's body, one assumes that the door is open for him to crawl back in another 14 years' time.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 08:11 (twenty-one years ago)

So what happened with Phil and Ian? Ack, I'm starting to take an interest again...

― $V£N! (blueski), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Phil ran into every house on the square in an attempt to hide, then ended up at Ian's where he socked his ex-son-in-law on the nose, then flushed him down the bog. Then he got sentimental over a picture of his Ben on the fridge. Ian convinced him to go hide in the arches while he ~~got some cash~~ dobbed him in. Phil runs round the square, in Pauline's front door, out her back door (or vice versa?), bangs on the door of the Vic, punches a couple of coppers and gets nicked.

What I don't know, yet, is if he came back for two episodes or if we're going to have to go through six weeks of courtroom tedium now.

― Madchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:25 (twenty-one years ago)

What was Phil hiding from and why?

― $V£N! (blueski), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:28 (twenty-one years ago)

(xpost)

Perhaps he could appear in that ghastly-sounding People's Court thing that's just started on daytime ITV.

(nb: Phil did not literally flush Ian down the bog - we were denied that pleasing spectacle)

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:29 (twenty-one years ago)

What was Phil hiding from and why?

The Ol' Bill. He's still to be tried after Dirty Den stitched him up in a robbery.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:32 (twenty-one years ago)

does anyone else think that pauline has had some dodgy plastic surgery? not recently, but at some point? this is a big topic of discussion in my house.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Also, Billy is in trouble for denying he's seen Phil, then bursting into a room full of coppers with a wad of cash intended for his cuz. Phil's DNA/fingerprints will be on a vodka glass in the front room (he is off the wagon again).

(x-post) You never see Pauline with hair tucked behind her ears any more - is she hiding the join?

― Madchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Wendy Richards lives near Ed's dad and appears to be suffering from cancer and bad wigs.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:37 (twenty-one years ago)

now i feel bad!

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:42 (twenty-one years ago)

still, i do think she's had a bad lift.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:43 (twenty-one years ago)

What would happen if wendy richards pickup up one of moira stewarts wigs in the morning instead of one of her own?

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:44 (twenty-one years ago)

she'd end up in a tryst with Pat, you sick, sick man

― $V£N! (blueski), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Ewwww! Bad Stevem!

Ed, it's P@m $t Cl3m3ns who is *supposed to be* the muff diva with the newsreader girlfriend (and is a posh old luvvy to boot). Furthermore, she doesn't even live in Marylebone.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:49 (twenty-one years ago)

i love watching inteviews with pam. i was shocked the first time i saw her out of character - she has such an amazing, stately presence.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:52 (twenty-one years ago)

What, like the Trellick Tower?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:53 (twenty-one years ago)

no.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:55 (twenty-one years ago)

A threesome with Pauline, Pat and Dot - I think that would act as a major criminal deterrent.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Television suddenly becomes a major prison torture device.

― Plus-Tech Whiz Kid (Disco) (Barima), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 09:59 (twenty-one years ago)

suddenly becomes?

― $V£N! (blueski), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 10:02 (twenty-one years ago)

That's not a wig. She's definitely had a lift, she looks 'wide awake'.

― Rumpie, Wednesday, 20 April 2005 10:04 (twenty-one years ago)

For a horrible minute, i thought Billy was going to get it on with Pat last night. I was like, 'Noooooooo, get up those stairs quickly you old slapper!'

― Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 11:33 (twenty-one years ago)

It was so obvious something major was going to happen to Billy, especially after he won all that money on the fruit machine. so corny.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 20 April 2005 11:38 (twenty-one years ago)

six months pass...

'ello Mum

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Monday, 24 October 2005 18:32 (twenty years ago)

It's Grant Force! He's back!

Jesus though, Enders is unwatchable these days, and this thread reminds me that it has been that way for at least a year. Why can't I give up watching it, why?

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Monday, 24 October 2005 20:13 (twenty years ago)

grasping at straws. what makes them think anyone wants the mitchell brothers back? they never wanted Den or sharon or anyone else they are so convinced are viewer draws.

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 24 October 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

Never mind, you'll be getting some Sonia Jackson/Fowler lezzing-up action soon. Erm...

The Don.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Monday, 24 October 2005 21:06 (twenty years ago)

I’d fight him for a tenner.

― Kodanshi, Monday, 24 October 2005 22:13 (twenty years ago)

Never mind, you'll be getting some Sonia Jackson/Fowler lezzing-up action soon. Erm...

come again?

crap how they started with jonny allen being OMG THE BIGGEST MOST RESPECTABLE CRIME LORD IN THE WORLD OMG, and now he's just going to turn into yet another play thing for the script writers to abuse for the mitchell brothers (who are basically just two bouncers).

― Ste (Fuzzy), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 09:11 (twenty years ago)

Johnny Allen + Moon Brothers >>>>>>>>> Mitchells. Except Billy.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 09:23 (twenty years ago)

All Ruby seems to do is flounce. About three times per episode Johnny says something along the lines of "Ruby - you've got to believe me!" and she turns with hair-whipping speed and marches away.

And Peggy "I'm a MITCHELL" Mitchell will hopefully stop spouting that line now her boys are back.

As for "He/She's not worth it" uttered by Billy umpteen times a night - God! Get a new line!

― Rumpie, Tuesday, 25 October 2005 09:25 (twenty years ago)

I like the Mitchells being back, whether it's straw grasping or not. 10 seconds of Grant's trademark hard stare is better than 6 months of Johnny "I was shite in the Bill as well" Allen (who was also shite in a Minder repeat the other night).

I await with pleasure Phil's unintelligible explanation of how he isn't banged up.

Is Grant the undisclosed 3rd party who is buying The Vic? Will he get back with Sharon? Who will be killed during the Proper Family Christmas?

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 09:36 (twenty years ago)

Has Sharon slept with Phil again yet? When does Vicky return to the Square to sleep with Grant?

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 09:48 (twenty years ago)

what's with sharon's new bouffant and heavy false eyelashes? she gets bigger and oranger with each episode, but throwing more and more fake hair at the problem will not make it go away.

― lauren (laurenp), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 12:26 (twenty years ago)

<digitalspy>at least she's got her black jacket back</digitalspy>

― Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 12:29 (twenty years ago)

***SPOILERS***

Never mind, you'll be getting some Sonia Jackson/Fowler lezzing-up action soon.

Sonia's new "cultured" best mate, inspired by the fact that Martin's a thicko wingnut who doesn't want to go to Tate Modern or read Animal Farm (and good on him, I say), decides Sonia needs a bit of girlie love.

come again?

Oh, steady on, Finbarr Saunders.

Is Grant the undisclosed 3rd party who is buying The Vic?

Nah, that would be Beale the Squeal, apparently.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 16:15 (twenty years ago)

The other night's Johnny-Allan-tough-guy act (shutting Peggy's fingers in a door) was the most roffle-tastic bit of EastEnderness since, erm, something else.

Tonight's episode was just Phil'n'Grant by numbers, and rubbish it was too. Still, anything that deflects attention from the lame attempt at an injection of humour that is the Garry'n'Minty show is OK by me.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 19:14 (twenty years ago)

Sonia's new "cultured" best mate, inspired by the fact that Martin's a thicko wingnut who doesn't want to go to Tate Modern or read Animal Farm (and good on him, I say)

it was 1984 actually

― Sonia, Tuesday, 25 October 2005 20:54 (twenty years ago)

Same difference, s'all the same to me, yer too bleedin' clever for me with your fancy books and that, I'm gaahing back to me stall to forget that I killed the love of your life who wouldn't be putting up with this either.

― martin fowler (ailsa), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 21:01 (twenty years ago)

Madness.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 06:54 (twenty years ago)

did sharon say dennis was her husband? have i missed another wedding.

and i can't believe that johnny allen is some god-like status crime lord and phil hasn't even heard of him since he was a baby. and the fact that he had to ask Dot (?!) for information on the mitchell brothers, surely he has contacts elsewhere.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 07:48 (twenty years ago)

Dot understands the WORD on the STREET rather than the criminal underworld though, innit?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 07:55 (twenty years ago)
