And Phil Mitchell has been shot twice, driven in a lake, been in several fires, been an alcoholic and crack addict, hit over the head by Stacey, endured countless fights, and still alive!
In just 2 years we have lost so many brilliant characters.Sometimes i think the writers get a little carried away and should think more carefully when killing off characters.
Somebody dies every week in this, if it’s not a murder then it’s a plane crash or a tsunami, my question is why would anyone want to live in a small town where you’re almost guaranteed to suffer, in reality this place would be derelict
Shakil didn't deserve to suffer for what Keegan did which makes his death even more poignant and pointless but Im glad they used his death to highlight the knife crime craze that we re experiencing
Me too. Abi with all her family sat round as the machine was switched off, and then Shaki with first a pair of legs running, then you gradually saw it was Carmel, but she didn't get there in time😪😪😪
Abi’s death gives me the lump in my throat every time - that was the worst one for me!😭 Shakhil’s death was the worst too. I miss both of these characters!!
YourSlytherinPrincess'xo Shaki's death was particularly sad with Carmel running to the hospital as fast as she could, but getting there seconds too late.😪😪
From Reg Cox ( in 1985) to Shakil Kazemi, there have been -wait for it-84 deaths! And Dot's still going strong! Is that when you know you're REALLY old??!
FIFA tv Yes, and Marge (Abi's Guinea pig) Roly and Tramp (Abi's dog). Not sure about Craig Revel Horwood ( Carmel's cat) tho. We never see or hear about him-is he still alive??
Still, what about Ken Barlow who's been in Coronation Street for over 50 years and seen at least 100 deaths (but probably more) and is still going strong?
It was to make a point surrounding knife crime- the writers of the show probably thought that if they killed off one of the main younger characters it would give more of an impact to younger audiences as they might have connected with Shakil, potentially making the viewer think twice about engaging with knife crime.
Bobgaming123 Gaming A theory I read was that the new producer is planning to gradually kill ALL the remaining characters off, then say " Stuff it" and leave. 😂😂So new characters, like Hayley, need to be VERY, VERY careful!!
All of these were absolutely heartbreaking, but I think the one that effected the EastEnder’s community most was Peggy Mitchell. She’s been in EastEnders for years, so many people know her and her famous catchphrase “get out of my pub!!”. Rest in peace to all these wonderful characters, and thankyou to all the wonderful actors and actresses that brought the characters to life. Gone, but have left a massive impact on the series. They’ll all be missed.
HINA EMPIRE I think the saddest one ( but not by much, as they're all sad) is when you first see a pair of legs running, then it goes to the doctors trying to revive Shaki, and then you gradually realise it's Carmel running to the hospital-but she gets there seconds too late! 😪😪😪
They should not had killed off roxy Ronnie or abi so like lauren there's a chance they would come back but they decided to just kill them off so no good return
Abi was a vindictive little bitch who let that monster Stephen continue with his sick lie that he was dying from a non existent brain tumour simply because of some pathetic sibling jealousy. And don't forget that it was Abis sworn statement that falsely imprisoned Max.
In my eyes they should have made Ronnie and rocky leave so they could go and do their tours. Sam left to play Morticia in the U.K and Ireland tour of the Addams family and Rita went and did the legally blonde uk tour. Their deaths hit me the hardest as they were my favourite characters
Watching shakil die was one of the toughest things I've watched in a while. With knife crime here in Britain sadly rising this storyline felt extra real......plus I'm the same age as kush and have a brother the same age as shakil so I really felt the devastation.
IIOmqitz HAUNT3DII idc about Hayley they can kill her off if they want but if they even try and kill Kat off then I’ll go all the way down to the production office and rip up the scripts 😂
TheEastEndBoy I kinda agree that Hayley should also be killed off because of what she's been doing like robbing and especially with a kid on the way she really shouldn't be drinking whiskey and all of that alcohol, even though for the money, she just doesn't want to have a kid whilst she's homeless.
IIOmqitz HAUNT3DII NOO, I like Hayley! I'll rip up the scripts if they kill HER off!!! Hunter, on the other hand, he can go (the sooner the better...!)
TheEastEndBoy PAHAHAHAHA! Had someone knifed her then that portmanteau you came up with would’ve been, oh god a little bit of wee wee just came out, don’t worry though, it’s only a little pee pee.
of course when i gave up on eastenders for being boring and repetitive people start dying left right center and theres alittle excitement in the show . Last people who died when i stopped watching was my girl Ronnie
Shakil was gorgeous and my favourite why did they kill him off that was a stupid thing to do as he was one of the main favourite characters he didn't deserve it he wasn't even the one who stole the bike in the first place 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
It's been a while since I've watched this show and I just went back and watched Abis sisters alcohol storyline and seeing that Abi dies broke my heart 😭
Some of these characters they’ve killed off they were gone to soon, I can understand Peggy’s cause she’s got Alzheimer’s in real life and she was forgetting her lines but Ronnie and Roxy shakil Steven and abi they killed em off too soon now Eastenders it’s not even the same without any these characters r.i.p
This is amazing I have been looking for a ytber that has done deaths in 2018!!! One last thing "Apparently" Roxy had a heart attack in the water?? I love all of these people!!!
