I was terribly disappointed at Andy Hunters death, I was expecting him to be torn apart by Alfie or Patrick, but hey ho, can't have all the square murderers.
Gosh, I'm sad.

how did Den fake his dead pulse?
― Ste (Fuzzy), Monday, 21 February 2005 16:06 (nineteen years ago) link
Andy's death was cool, especially the ruthless economy of it. Actually the Andy story was much more compelling than the Den storyline, I thought.

I was saying to my wife the other night that with the two new rent-a-thugs, the return of Den and the bloke of The Bill that 'enders now had way too many tough/bad guys in it. Good plan to get rid of two at once.
Rumour azzit Grant Mitchell may return later in the year.
um, xpost, some wrestling stuff, folding table gtting smashed or something

I thought the bit in the Vic with Ian playing the air guitar was quite sweet because it involved all the characters who've been there from the beginning. I can't believe I've been watching that programme for 20 years now.
I also can't believe that the best plotline they could come up with for their 20th anniversary was to kill Den again. I agree, Andy's death was much better.
And hey! The Ferreras aren't gone at all! There they were at the bar with no-one saying "where the bloody hell did you lot slope off to?"

I was quite stupidly impressed with them keeping Sharon's brief return quiet - I read quite a lot of trashy papers and magazines and didn't know about it. I should get out more.
I said that thing about Ian being like his twattish 20-years-ago self with Pauline and Dot and Den and that to my husband when it was on on Friday, like what accentmonkey said, and my husband said I was really sad. :(
Are there any gays in Eastenders at the moment? I like a good gay character.
The guy who plays the Moon brother that isn't Lee from the Office is gay in real life, but that's not what you meant, was it? Corrie has the best soap gay in Sean.
― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 21 February 2005 21:32 (nineteen years ago) link
I can't help myself, my head is full of old soap plots - I'm therefore frequently baffled at the company some people keep in the soaps ("Why are you buying him a pint? He shagged your wife in 1992!"). It seems the characters have shorter memories (or are more forgiving) than me.
Tony and Simon were a top gay couple. Simon was totally over the top bad acting camp guy and Tony spent the whole time going "I'm not gay, give us a kiss Si."

According to teh beeb "The Banned was a pop group consisting of Ian Beale, Sharon Watts, Kelvin Carpenter and Eddie Henderson. In the show they performed a track called Something Outta Nothing. It was then released as a single."

Me too. When Den was bludgeoned I thought, wow, it's just like when Steve and Matthew did Saskia in. And cementing over the body. How Brookside!

The 'Lords of the Bling' lads had a scrap (can't remember the names) over the Ferraro girl.
That blonde girl who hangs around with the Ferraro's shouted at them a bit and then did one.

In tonight's EastEnders update, the Ferreiras have gone! FOR GOOD!
Johnny Allen's daughter is clearly some sort of nervous wreck and keeps running away. She freaked out at the sight of a picture of her sister on his wall. I think the sister in question was murdered by gangsters.
Nope, it was a fire apparently. Though that fire may have been gangster-related as I wasn't really paying attention. She was called Scarlet. Like as in Scarlets. DO YOU SEE?
Isn't Stacey Slater annoying? Note to scriptwriters - we all remember Janine, we don't need another one just yet thanks.

My prediction stands: He will take back the Queen Vic, get Vicky or Sonia or both up the duff whilst seeing Den's old bit of stuff, then die somehow in another hopelessly ill-conceived scenario.

Toe-curling, because it was nicely done until that point. Ian lurking in a bush was unexpected. They brought it back at the cemetery though, Jack throwing her cigarettes onto her coffin, Abide With Me seguing into the theme tune...
