Chanel Kennedy just like you I got (EXACTLY) the same goosebumps today as I did way back then when I recorded it for the first time it was broadcast that evening on my Hitachi VHS recorder way back in October 2005 as it originally aired!! 🥰 (MY BROTHERS WERE BACK!!!!!!!!) 😍 First time I saw Grant in exactly six years since previously seeing him way back in October 1999 when he was by the Thames with Phil when they were both escaping the gangsters which episode I also recorded on video tape in my VHS too which (I ABSOLUTELY LOVED!!!!!!!!) To hear Grant say, “Allo mum!” to his matriarch mum Peggy Mitchell played by the (LEGENDARY) (Barbara Windsor) was (ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!……..) ♥️ Iconic!!…. 👏🏽
Giuseppe Lombardi I had the same goosebumps as you and Chanel did seeing Phil and Grant again which was (EXACTLY) the same goosebumps you and I got when seeing Dirty Den return to the Square for the first time way back in September 2003 since I last saw him by the river way, way back in February 1989!! I recorded Den’s return to EastEnders at the time it was aired on video in my VHS recorder as well to record this historic soap moment too!! 😍 To see and hear him say “Allo Princess!” to Sharon again after fourteen years of not seeing him or hearing him on Albert Square at all again in between that time was incredible…. 🥰 Iconic!…. 👏🏽
Will never ever forget this episode my favourite episode always!! Can just remember sitting with my family and watching this happen wow seems like it was only yesterday
Me too Ian!! “Allo Mum” with that smile is the reason why I’m here 17 years later after recording that iconic scene on VHS tape way back in October 2005!!
Cameron, I agree with you. I’ve not watched Eastenders since Christmas 2012 and whenever I read that Phil and Grant returned, I just watch it on RU-vid.
@@jaykaria4776 your right my friend i totally agree with you i stopped watching after the end of 2015 and perhaps jan 2016 they bring in new characters to replace legends, it just dosent make sense.
Gary, yeah. There’s no consistency anymore in my opinion. They literally bring in new people for about 6 months for example, leave and then new people come in. Whereas back in the good old days, it was epic to watch.
Best Eastenders scene ever I went nuts when grant stepped out I just thought your dead pal 😂 "hello mum" 😀 "now this might sting a bit" 👊 classic Grant
Always gives me goosebumps. They 2 lines were the most iconic lines in eastenders history. Hello mum. X the sigh from Peggy she knew then all would be okay. X and the way grant (ross kemp) always looked at her, could see the real love between them both. She was always begging him to come back. Eventually he gave in to her. Phil and grant were the true eastenders x
Haha legendary moment at the end. I had a hug gin on my face when grant said 'Hello mum' Bring Grant back! Its not the same with only half of the Mitchell Bro duo x
Grant should have smashed those 4 boys heads in that kidnapped Ben and there was no villain on the square at the time, however it would have been nice to see a feud between him and mick or Vincent
Could have been brill. But instead of focusing on the unfinished business with Phil, and Sharon, they instead decided to focus on a hastily written reunion with secret son storyline. Which all ended up being poorly acted, and ultimately pointless. Shame.
Couldn't agree more, In 99 Grant and Phil take on Kim brooks and his mob armed with a shotgun 30 grand in cash and get chased through London by half the met, In 2016 The writers get Grant to chase 4 16 year olds armed with a phone each and a bottle of Fanta shouting come on then, How times have changed, The writers no longer exist and the show is an absolute joke
These were golden moments in eastenders history...i stopped watching it 10 years ago but love the classic ones like this...enders lost it's touch as time passed by.
@Issac C it was an English pub that showed all the soaps. It was along the strip. I think it was called the Gary Linekar bar but it's a while now and afraid old age is catching up on me. Back then I was fit and felt great. Now when I look in the mirror I see Rab C Nesbitt staring back at me.😀😀
When I saw this for the first time I thought to myself when only Billy got out of the vehicle oh yeah right, he's going to be a big help! The we see Phil then Grant great clip.
When I first saw this, i said it was a very bad idea to be picking on this mother. The Mitchell where the tv versions of the Krays twins and there mother.
Beyond epic scene ever. Just love how Billy (runt of the Mitchell's) starts of, then the two legends come to rescue mum. Anyone know if there is a higher quality version of this? HD if poss.
Billy: HEY LET HER GO OR IL RIP YOUR BLEEDING HEAD OFF Johnny Allen's mate: yeah you and whose army Car doors Slam Phil: his evil stare Grant: hello mum
