Magnum Milano Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Fingerpoke of Doom-hah! It was akin to Nash and Hogan on Nitro actually! EastEnders is pissing all over Corrie at the moment. However, I think there's some good stuff due on CS in the coming months, whereas the new Easties showrunner is resorting to bringing back the abysmal Daniella Westbrook and recasting Lucy Beale. WHY??!! The actress who plays Lucy now is perfectly fine.  Don't be surprised if EE enters a rough patch later this year. Some of the casting decisions being made right now are crazy. Though it was obvious Ben Mitchell needed recasting sooner or later. By all accounts the axing of Melissa Suffield was do to constant disciplinary issues. Shame, as she is a cracking little actress. As awful as Ben Mitchell is, I will miss his camp, hokey acting and delivery on the Square (the funniest thing I have seen on the show for years was the immortal 'You need slappin' dahn' line). They are also recasting Lauren Branning.  Not looking forward to the return of Westbrook, and the returns of Kat & Alfie Moon, although there are a bunch of departures to come that should clear out some dead wood. I hope that Glynis Barber is here to stay, and the same with Tameka Empson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steveo2007 Posted July 31, 2010 Author Share Posted July 31, 2010 Did someone just mention realism in a post about Eastenders? Fair point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillkid Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Does anyone know if there is any truth to Alife Moon and Kat (Slater) Moon coming back in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pegasus Kid Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) Â God I loved Neighbours a few years back, one of the few shows I'm truly nostalgic for. Pepper leaving as well as the move to Five was the end for me, maybe it'll return to the glory days at some point.

NorthSeaTiger Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) Emmerdale for me. Maisie is just awesome...when they had her drunk and stumbling about she was hot but now she is a sex-obsessed minx makes her even better!! :thumbsup: Although i think that Nathan is the least convincing tv hardman ever...For a start he is too clean-cut and his voice is too posh to sound threatening. Also has Natalie Robb who is well tidy, and some decent storylines too. Eastenders is way too dark sometimes, i know that happens in real life but very rarely could all that misery happen in such a small community. Corrie has the comedy timing down perfect. Norris especially. His line at the birthday party cracked me up.."Why do people congratulate you when you have a birthday at our age? Is it cause you haven't died yet?" Perfect delivery!!

DeanoTheGame Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Drunk Roy Cropper is almost as funny as drunk Phil Mitchell. And I'm enjoying them remaking The Kipper and The Corpse.  Drunk Roy Cropper was absolutely hilarious. Some great lines.  'Would you like a punch Mary?'  'Don't tell me the Archbishop of Canterbury has just found a gap in his diary?! HA HA!'  Top quality!

Magnum Milano Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Does anyone know if there is any truth to Alife Moon and Kat (Slater) Moon coming back in it? Yes they are coming back, and they have already cast for Alfie's cousin Michael Moon (played by Steve John Shepard, last I saw of him was in the BBC3 comedy Lunch Monkeys, and years back he was in This Life) who will be joining the show. Â Fortunately, there appears to be no plans for the atrocious Chris 'Spencer Moon' Parker to be rejoining the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the only time a character in a soap has ever died and I have not high five someone afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
