Agreed, and he had 10 times the integrity that cowardly Frank ever had. Frank's lame idea of loving Pat was dumping his teenage children on her every time he escaped a car lot scam.
@@wresting9899 I would take Roy being a boring good man any day over Frank being a coward who takes off and leaves his wife to look after the kids and business debts, then turns up years later acting like he owns the place.
Cheers for this, had this on video that I taped off the Sunday omnibus where I ended up accidentally taping over it at the vital moment! (2:00) It was where I taped the comic relief sketch on the cast taking off Singing In The Rain where in a rush I wanted to catch the moment when they repeated it on the same Sunday afternoon.
My Uncle Laurie had a heart attack before and when we to a funeral home to see him and say our final goodbyes, he is now in heaven, we used to visit him on Christmas Eve at a tower block called Richmond heights to get present for Christmas, before or after having our Christmas fry up KFC,
An example of hateful EastEnders writing. After the beautiful reunion Pat and Roy had in 2001 following the garbage affair plot with sleazy Frank Butcher, THIS is their final scene. It's not right. They loved each other & deserved better than this. Having Roy drop dead in front of Pat and Barry take his anger out on her... A series of bad writing decisions. No wonder Barry's actor Shaun Williamson hated the soap for its "dark" content. They destroyed Barry after this.
@@elgee6202 Your opinion. Roy was a solid character that should of never been killed off as it ended up ruining Barry as well. Characters like Roy and Barry are being missed badly in the EastEnders of today.
@@SayberV1, I didn't dislike Roy, but his character is hardly missed. His death took Pat in a new direction - with her character and history it wouldn't have been right for her to get a happy ever after with a decent man, especially one who was second best for her. It was also necessary to kill off Roy to kick-start the Janine and Barry plot. I don't think Barry is "badly needed". There are plenty of characters to fill his buffoonish, hapless, luckless sort of persona.
@@TomuCow thats true, if he had eaten better and been more active he would have probably lasted a gew more decades and not be in and out of hospital with heart attacks
Agreed. I had hope for improvement when they brought back Dirty Den, but even that was destroyed by the writers who sacked Leslie Grantham the following year.
@@iluvlafferty wasn't he fired over a sex scandal? That wouldn't be the writer's fault. Leslie Grantham was a convicted murderer in real life so I'm surprised he was allowed on TV in the first place. Then again, we're talking about the BBC and we all know what they let fly back then. 🧐
@@arianaajbeaverhausen8175 They fired Leslie just months after promoting the 'Big Return of Dirty Den' after 15 years. They used him to get all the viewer ratings back and then dumped him to protect themselves. Just more proof of how BBC use and abuse people.
I remember him playing Peter Duncan 's dad ' or rather PD characters dad in a kids drama called King Cinder way back when he was much younger ' just wish they would put it out on dvd ' I already have the book ' think it beats EE hands down.
The old bird had plenty of breaks, Roy had taken her back many times already. She was a brazen hussy imo... but that's why I loved watching her to be fair 😁😂 Loved the episode when Roy punched Frank, that was so satisfying to watch! 😂❤
Roy was right to be angry with Pat and he’s right, he shouldn’t have taken her back. Pat still hadn’t learn her lesson after her affair with Frank so Roy had the right to be angry
Roy was being a tiny bit hypocritical talking about trust. After forgiving Pat for her affair with Frank and giving their marriage another try, didn't he go behind her back and secretly changed his last will and testament, passing all his money and properties solely onto Barry upon his death? I'm sure he did.
Sometimes you can forgive but you just can't forget. I guess Roy couldn't forget that Pat fucked her ex husband. And Franks son fucking his sons wife brought it all back like a hail of bullets.
I completely understand why he did that. Roy spent years proving himself to Pat - as a businessman, a father and her husband. He went to extreme lengths to make her happy after Frank abandoned her. And how did she repay him? A sleazy affair with Frank in spite of the terrible way he treated her. Overall, Roy was the one who deserved better.
