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.

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>

***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)

Yes, they got married the day Den's body was dug up (yes, you missed another murder :-P ).

Grant and Phil weren't quite "by numbers" last night. The "I'm too old for this caper, can't we just stand around looking hard?" bit was good, though Grant didn't take long to revert to type afterwards.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 08:09 (twenty years ago)

Just what we need, more comedy. This isn't Corrie, people. Bring back the gloom..

― Chewshabadoo (Chewshabadoo), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 10:02 (twenty years ago)

soaps are the new sitcoms. apparently. if corrie is to be believed

― Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 10:05 (twenty years ago)

the comedy was short lived. a bit of banter back at the house, the oh so cringy "even Grants not that stupid" etc scene. then it was back to basics with the usual about-to-really-hurt-someone-but-gets-interupted moment.

destroy corrie, forever

― Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 10:07 (twenty years ago)

oh crikey. do i only exist to complain? oh no..

― Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 10:07 (twenty years ago)

one year passes...

The Fresh Prince's butler's in Eastenders!

― ONIMO's pet donkey jacket potato (GerryNemo), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 14:46 (nineteen years ago)

He was actually in an Eastenders years before as a plumber fixing the Vic's pipes (iirc).

― ;_; (blueski), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 14:52 (nineteen years ago)

I remember reading once, ages ago, that the original casting choice for Geoffrey was going to be Stephen Fry, until (whatever network Fresh Prince showed on) decided that they wanted an all-black cast. Is this horrid lies, or is it truth?

― Sadly, he will be the next Alexis Petridish. (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 14:54 (nineteen years ago)

go geoffrey, go geoffrey.

he's a right CAD as well.

slightly disappointing that eastenders uses "the bloke off of desmonds", "another bloke off of desmonds" and "bloke off of fresh prince" as seemingly the only three black actors over 50...

...also, surely when patrick arrived he was portrayed as a right devil, but now is meant to have been the rubbish one. see also jim branning's r4cialism being swept under the carpet...

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 14:56 (nineteen years ago)

Patrick = Manchester United of loving
Geoffery = Chelsea

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 14:58 (nineteen years ago)

Not as bad as British TV/film's "Om Puri is the only Indian actor over 50" steez though.

Last week's Eastenders WTF?

Phil Daniels wandering around Dungeness with a bleeding limping dude who said he was dumped there after a stag night, prompting Daniels to GIVE HIM A BANANA. Stag Night Man steals a piece of wood from Derek Jarman's garden to use as a crutch and Daniels goes ape and forces him to put it back ("He made films! I like films!"). Then they flirt with a barmaid and play pool and discuss Derek Jarman's death then SNM steals Daniels' ferry ticket and jumps on a bus which crashes and EXPLODES and SNM dies so Phil has to go back to Teh Square!

WAHT?

― onimo, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 15:26 (nineteen years ago)

You missed the last five minutes where Phil Daniels staggers back to his house on foot, only to find a huge dome in its place. Inside his estranged missus arises from the ground in a spherical chair wearing a badge which bears the number "2" and tells him that he needs to talk about why he resigned since there are more painful ways in which they can extract information from him but they don't wish to hurt him.

― Marcello Carlin, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 15:47 (nineteen years ago)

"a bleeding limping dude"

last seen chasing aliens around wales

― Alan, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 15:50 (nineteen years ago)

that would have made more sense!

xpost

― onimo, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 16:20 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I know. If it wasn't for the fantastic understated sleaziness of Max Branning, I'd have stopped watching again quite some time ago.
