Includes Alan punching David! More stuff of this storyline coming soon :) Originally aired between 06/03/95 and 23/03/95. I do not own the contents of this video and am not making any profit.
BBC need to create an "EastEnders" Channel showing earlier episodes from beginning to present. All the earlier storylines created by scriptwriters, the actors and scenes were true art form of realism drama. And that's the reason why this soap opera has won so many awards. Current scriptwriters need to look back on these past episodes and more become inspired and empowered again, how "EastEnders" had that "special" ingredient. No pressure guys. 😗😗😗
This is exactly how I feel need to be time capsules as a record of real London during that period. So bloody realistic didn’t appreciate it then but certainly do now! Would never tune in today ridiculous unrealistic story lines
The scene where Carol describes how she felt and what happened after she found out she was pregnant is such a powerful scene. It paints such a clear picture of what she was describing and was so real. The acting and writing throughout this Storyline is phenomenal x
Sonia was a lovely kid who grew up to be a smashing adult 🙂 It was sad that she got treated like shit as a teenager just because she didn’t look like a Barbie doll 💔 Carol and Bianca may have had tongues like razorblades but they had good hearts deep down, and Alan was a good guy, and Blossom the grandma from heaven ❤
You forget she killed Pauline, gave her baby away, and stole £30,000 off Dot by hacking her bank account !??? that never came up again when Dot died. She was a control freak and made her own daughter Bex try and killer herself… even now shes an ugly, scheming liar !!! still lying Nd scheming.. smh
She seemed old to you? She was early 30s… Prob just the perception because she had four kids and the eldest almost an adult but most women are only just getting going at that age
@@flight101 Lindsey Coulson was born 1960 I was in 1969 she must have been 35, although Carol might have been a 29 year old in the show. Man I miss those 90s.
Yeah, I always thought Lindsey Coulson and Michael French had fantastic chemistry. You could tell that they played the dynamic from the very beginning as two people who always deeply loved each other but there were so many obstacles constantly in their way throughout the years.
@@gurdeepbenning748 who is waiting for a story called incest who told you i like incest i dont think anthing wrong with it i dont get people with your mentally your way of thinking if your in love your in love and if both feel same i dont see people that like you pc
Carol was wrong to keep the fathers of her three children from them, David would have been supportive of Bianca and Carol, but Derek, Carol's nasty brother bullied him and his family out of the square.
Same to me as a naive 10 year old from zone 6 he was a big scary black fella with a deep voice like frank bruno. Always thought he could have had a tear up with grant and given a good account of himself. Now rewatching these hes a genuinely good family oriented guy who has shit luck with jobs etc. i never noticed how awful david was despite the affair with cindy and messing around with sam mitchell and winding ricky up.
I like Carol but she may have driven those men away. She didn't let them in. Alan's different from the other men because he stayed at least for billy although he loved the other kids
Bianca became like her mother, multiple kids with different men, one mixed race. Sonia became as moody as Carol too. In the backstory, Alan met Carol when he came to fix up something in her house. So why couldn't he get a job doing that? He struggled to get jobs. It was nice he loved her for her with multiple kids. Pity they couldn't last. She tried with David and that didn't work. Did Pat not want Bianca as her granddaughter? She never tried to foster a relationship with her at first and discouraged David. Did she think he'd be a bad dad?
They retconned everything about Robbie’s Dad having relationships with underage girls in 2001 when the character appeared in a few episodes. Now they look to be doing the exact same with Sonia’s Dad Terry.
Because the writers on the show now are clueless idiots, they probably never watched the show years ago and wouldn’t know good writing if it slapped them in the face.
Its ruined every show on the bbc. I mean doctor who has had it far worse than eastenders. They completely fucked around with the cannon just to pander to the sjws
Totally disagree, 'love thy neighbour' wasnt politically correct , but was still rubbish. What destroyed eastenders was the inferior writers and producers they bought in. Any drama is only as good as its characters and storylines and that is down to the writers and producers.
@@tankdrives2 LTN was hilarious!!!! loads of insults but all banter, how it used to be !!!! steptoe always saying wogs and that, nobody minded.. it wasnt nasty any of it.
Alicante Spain, I didn’t say love thy neighbour was nasty, I said it was rubbish and not because it was politically incorrect, in sickness and in health was a great show and was not in the least bit pc. What I am saying is eastenders turned crap for the same reason love thy neighbour was crap and that is down to bad writing. Hope you understood this time?
She loved to put it about. I mean most 16/17 year old boys would run a mile they get a gf knocked up. He just panicked and did what was natural. He was a slimeball as a grown man mind you. The business with cindy and sam mitchell.
Yea proper tacky period time stamp the way 10 years or so later those family wall album picture frames saying family or the word love or peace or home in dimante effect stones or something just randomly placed on a shelf .
>Because my brothers beat the living daylights out of him. This is actually quite a come back if you had watched when Derek Branning returned and suddenly all of the branning brothers had him back again. Considering Derek then, Carol was RIGHT to get away from him.
@@bethanylloyd2849 are they out of stranger things i heard of stranger things but never watched it are the actress actor out of stranger things what other celebrities you like and what ya favourite ones
10:30 Carol is so selfish, he might not have meant anything to Carol but it’s Bianca’s dad, how can she blame him for “strolling in” when he didn’t know all this time
It was actually confirmed many times that Carol spoke so bitterly about David because he was the true love of her life and she never got over him leaving when she was pregnant. She knew he was forced to leave by her brothers who were violent towards him, but she convinced herself that David never cared. Also, she's worried that Alan will be hurt if she speaks well of David.
@@flight101 have a right to my opinion by the way not that many h in the word Shhh and im talking about her face and how sweet she looked nothing to do with her character only drama fiction program ain't real
I wish they bring david and bianca and ricky back love them and keegan in it now and whitney and max and hope they all have story lines like these ones
PS they did drag this out a bit.. it wasnt that big a deal when it was out in the open and bianca wasnt a child, she was a spoilt, manipulative little sod anyway, always getting her own way. They should just walk away and leave her to it.
Proper wrongun but jokes character. Dean gaffney had a bit of an image problem in later life and i feel its due to his stint in this. Fun fact in 07 i worked for a top law firm who repped various celebs. He called and was laughed around the office nobody took him on cos of said image. They had wossy boris becker arry redknapp ryan giggs and more “on the books” they do big reputation management/libel for companies now as well as the celeb stuff. Wont name drop them. No bs i was just an office admin and covered reception. The dean gaffney call was most amusing mind you. Not sure what shenanigans he needed protecting from around september october 2007. I found it a little snobbish as they had danielle lloyd and the lesser ferdinand brother too after his faces rumble. Those are hardly the upper echelons of celebdom. Life is funny later on ironically in another law firm my facilities manager sean was and still is good mates with michael french. He is or was a regular in epping. Bent as a 9 bob note to use an old fashioned term. Showed me pics of them both in hotpants at some late 80s or 90s festival. Maybe a car thing like donnington as there was a big tyre in the pic.
Robbie i dont want Arthur Fowler knocking on the door saying his my Dad. Don't worry Robbie Well Ards your Dad mate with that long boat, i think Carol has got more Kids Dads in her life then the phonebook lol 3 kids 3 diffarant Dads says alot about a Woman i think. Eastenders smashed it back in the 90s its dog shit now
Yup its basically this in a roundabout way. You aint my muvva….. yes i am. People remember that as a bigger storyline when it was nowhere near as well acted.
@@bensmithkent22 Kathy beale had one in the 80s too. A girl turned up and she was the long lost daughter that Kathy had and gave up for adoption when she was a schoolgirl. It was something like that. People must have miserable lives to watch this rubbish.
DAVID SHOULD'VE HIT ALAN BACK RATHER THAN LET HIM GET AWAY WITH ATTACKING HIM. HE IS HER DAD AT THE END OF THE DAY, HE HAS HIS RIGHTS. BESIDES, IT WASN'T HIS FAULT THEY KEPT THAT AS A SECRET!
The Jacksons were one of the best EastEnders families. It's a shame that newer audiences only really know the Slaters as a long-serving family, who are just noisy and nasty people. Carol Jackson >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Kat Slater.
@@sonicandnaruto5893 same! I don't understand why everyone loves her so much! Shes a vile tramp who I just want to punch everytime she appears on screen!
@@sonicandnaruto5893 It makes me cringe that Stacey has become a long-serving character. Plus, I never thought Stacey and Bradley's relationship was believable and yet the writers talked about it like it was some great love story. Ha ha yes, so great that she jumped into bed with his disgusting father every chance she got
@@sonicandnaruto5893 Plus, don't get me started on Stacey and Martin getting together. The only real Martin Fowler was played by James Alexandrou, in the days where Martin and Sonia were married and Eastenders was still watchable.
I find it difficult to believe that Bianca, Robbie, and Sonia would never have asked about their fathers up until this point, and that even Alan didn't know about some of the fathers. Or even why Carol was so miserably desperate never to tell her children who their dads were.
Max and especially Jack are both younger than Carol, but they didn't debut on the show until like 2005? 2006? so they were probably meant to be her older brothers back then.
@@davidmernick7360 they changed their story. Lol happens all the time. The same way they decided to pretend the mitchels always lived in walford when they decided that sharons dad was.friends with dirty den and her real dad 😕
