And where would that leave Dot?

By Jim's bedside, where she's not been for several weeks, months even? :heehee:

OK Jark, you got me.

 

As an aside, looking back over our bottom 10 characters, it's interesting to note that already exactly half of them have now been carted off the show by the writers (Vinnie, Callum, Danielle, Archie and Suzy). And of those remaining, one has only been sighted about once in the past year (Jordan).

So there is hope for those who are still longing for the on-screen deaths of Ben Mitchell and Abi Branning!

The Curse Of Buzzjack!

26. Tiffany Dean (5.35)

 

Now really people. Yes Tiffany is very cute and all, and yes she's one of the better kiddies on the show at the moment. But do we REALLY rate her as being more valuable to the show than the likes of Phil Mitchell and Max Branning?

On the other hand I may change my tune if we ever do get the eagerly awaited scene where she rises up and murders Dotty Cotton.

I'm quite sure that's what they're building up to. I envisage a scene whereby Dotty is standing tall (metaphorically) in the doorway of Dot's burning lounge, Dot unable to move out of the flames because Dotty slipped Pat's earrings into her pocket, and Tiffany bursts in with a flourpot of water, uses the water to save the day and uses the pot to give Dotty a fatal blow to the head. Dot says something along the lines of 'yes, well, Jesus forgave those who sinned with good intent'. Perfect no?

It's too perfect. You have ruined the Dotty plot for me. The reality is now inevitably going to be a crushing disappointment.

 

Where does Nick feature in all this? Perhaps he is Brenda's other woman?

I'm so sorry, I'm just too creative for my own good. EE would literally kill to have me on board.

 

Brenda is a prostitute; she's going to come clean to Charlie about her scheme to give Gilly's a grand re-opening on June 1st, just in time for Summer. Nick is her pimp.

Tiffany Dean is EPIC. One of the best child actresses they've ever had. She has such a lol-character.

 

As for ABI, she's been up to her OLD TRICKS again this week. Srsly frustrating watching, isn't she like 13 now? :wacko:

I hope Dot isn't going to win this, shes so overrated imo.

tiffany is brilliant and i totally agree she is one of the best kids actors eastenders has ever had or any soap for that matter

Woo Tiffany :cheer: Should be top ten :kink:

Tiff - definatly one of their better child actors, not that it's hard considering she's on the same show as Abi & Ben.

I really don't think the actress of Abi is really that bad, nowhere near as bad as Ben anyway. She's just been given a brat of a character to play.

tiffany i think will win best young actor at the upcoming soap awards thats my hope anyhow,,abi isnt a bad actress at all its just she ha sthat annoying brat role,ben is terrible and bobby is even worse

Has Bobby actually done anything yet? I thought we were still in the non-speaking phase with him?

25. Patrick Trueman (5.59)

 

As we discussed Max as being the perfect EE character (full of misery and spreading gloom everwhere he goes), so Patrick Trueman is the complete antithesis. For the most part, Patrick is actually a pretty HAPPY guy. Yes, HAPPY. Happiness in Eastenders. BIZARRE.

Of course this is largely due to the obligatory bottle of spirit that magically appears in Patrick's hand in every scene he features in. Scenes involving the man only come in three formats.

1.) Patrick Trueman drunk on rum

2.) Patrick Trueman well on his way to being drunk on rum

3.) Patrick Trueman very drunk on rum, and performing some dodgy grandad-dancing moves in the B&B living area. Generic Caribbean music playing at full blast and Patrick shouting "oh yeah mon!" in a stereotypically heavy accent.

 

The only dark cloud in Patrick's life is the absence of the GODDESS Yolande. He may not be showing it but he must be TEARING UP on the inside. Obviously. Because I REFUSE to believe that after years of relatively happy marriage and rum-fuelled dancing on the spot, Yolande can just leave and a week later Patrick shrugs his shoulders and gets on with life as before. NONSENSE. Yolande for #1!!!

 

 

TELL ME Yolande isn't still to come? She stopped being fun long before she left. :( Somehow she turned from free spirit to queen of the sours...

 

Loving the 'yeah mon' observation. It's always accompanied by a very hood click of fingers too. It's a shame in a way that they stereotype him like that because he has moments where he's really interesting, and they let those moments down. I also find that Rupert has a very old-school approach to acting in some ways; it comes off more forced than natural...

bobby was in a scene the other day and i think it was yes he said,im sure they will re cast him in a year or 2 as usually thats the age they start getting storylines,,,i agree about yolande she used to be funny but then they turned her into a sour bitter nag

I can't believe I only just found this thread, it's hilarious!

 

Shoat you're an absolute genius for both your choice in photos and your comments! You need to do one of these for Hollyoaks after this has finished - I'll come back in November to see how we're getting on :P

 

I REALLY hope people didn't vote for Stacey to win because that would make me want to p*** on my own foot. She is SO miserable, her mouth is just the most ugly thing on TV (even more so than Garry for crying out loud!) I wanted Tiffany to win but seeing as that's out then it has to be Jean for me :D

FTF, I think Bobby is good! For such a young actor anyway. :o Better than Dotty at least :heehee:

 

Also urinating on your own foot is a bit extreme Perry. At least urinate on somebody else's feet. An enemy, a rival or similar.

Nothing with Bobby if you ask me, if anything he's quite good.

 

4 male charcters to go then. I like Patrick but i dont like that he's now part of the Fox family and the axing of Yolande alone was strange and un-needed, they might as well have axed the pair of them.

ya i think patrick and yolande should have been kept tpgether or both gone but that aint gonna happen now...
