20 euro say Eric Mitchell is still alive

Did he die in prison?

Imagine if he was still alive and came to see Phil and romance old flame killer Claudette again :P

I thought Vincent was to be Eric's son

very little from what i could see, it was a bra under a jacket :eek: but i think they are making her out to be a bit of a slapper and not a good mother, i'd say Ronnie and Jack will end up with the young lad when the actress who plays Sam leaves as she's not meant to be in it for too long. I thought the actor who plays Phil (Steve McFadden) played a blinder tonight,I was delighted he didn't open the bottle of whiskey and I was in tears at the end when he went back to the grave and said bye mum

There's a streak of Peggy in her heyday in Sam, she shouldn't be dismissed too early.
Loved the ending of the show tonight also.

He was absolutely brilliant. He plays the part so convincingly, I had to remind myself it's a soap. Him almost collapsing carrying the coffin, leaving the church, unable to say what he had wanted to say, just everything he does, he is amazing.
And I loved the scene at the end.

Obviously that's wasn't Kathy and it was the Gavin's sister

I never watch this show but happened to stumble across it tonight. Was it a Benny Hill sketch at the end? Mother of Jesus. A fooking 6 year could have fought off that antique!

FFS, why couldn't Claudette have finished him off

JP Liz V1

Why didn't Kathy or Margaret break the door window downstairs to get out

Ian telling Jay stand up for himself as he did nothing wrong, are the writers trying to redeem Ian

casio4

I couldn't believe it when the two ladies went upstairs and Gavin wasn't there how many times have Eastenders done this? it happened with us thinking Claudette was dead in Vincents basement and the body disappeared and the same thing happened a while ago with Gavin again I think in the same basement he disappeard too

Gavin is such a not scary villian. Plus he cheated, you cannot move while counting down.

Peggy didn't raise Phil and Grant so they hide away at her funeral.

Gavin is an old fart no idea why the birds are scared of him
Why didn't the just throw a table through the front door and jog on
Sharon and buster just staring at the body was ridiculous

I think the poster means, you'd imagine Peggy raised Phil and Grant better than to expect them to be hiding away from her funeral. As in, you'd expect more from them.

I think they are trying to show they are struggling to deal with it except Sam who couldn't give a toss

screamer

I thpught grants ugly cry face as he stood in the bushes at the graveyard was so funny. Talking about faces poor old Sam looks haggered. I know that actress had huge drug problems and it's really showing now..she looks older than aunt Sal.

I dunno, I get a creepy Jimmy Saville vibe from Gavin.

JP Liz V1

Why is Kathy so worried about Denny, he isn't her son or relative and she isn't even Sharon's friend

January

Because she knows how dangerous Gavin can be maybe?

Buster the third mitchell brother :-)

Where did Gavin think he was going over the edge.

firestarter51

Why did Sharon leave all that cash there
Her shoulder pad things are so annoying it's like going back to Dallas/dynasty

The Talking Bread

That Gavin character was one of the worst characters in the show ever. They hadnt a clue what to do with him. He was like a villain out of Austin Powers, cheesy as fk. I genuinely cant remember what his motives are at all since he came. He seemed to be shoehorned into everyones life.
And then at the end, like all pantomine villains, he tries to run off with a big bag of cash and gets caught on the roof of a big building. The one f'kin place he surely knew he couldnt escape from.

fussyonion

It looks like bloody Batman's cape that Sharon was wearing.
I knew Gavin wouldn't hand himself in willingly.

firestarter51

No interview at the police station for the witnesses to the events either (man on the run - murder - random 30k in a bag)
Dead body - check
Who did it ?
It was him -> Gavin
Okay we got this you go back to the square for a chip supper

The worst episode i've seen in all my years watching Eastenders, I can't even begin to explain as there was so much wrong.

It wasn't that bad if you black out the scenes with Sharon (Mrs piggy) pouting and batting her eyelashes and Gavin who is a terrible actor and Gillian isn't much better
As for Westbrook f me she looks terrible

So the scene with Ben and his fellas granny is about all that's left

Make you right
Terrible episode on reflection

JP Liz V1

I thought Gavin was to be a villain in the same league as Archie, really he was an awfully written character, Pete Beale should have been Sharon's real dad
