Derek Harkinson (Ian Lavender)

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

This can be closed now?

[Bad Wolf]

will do

[Crimson Tears:(]

Where was he? Shouldn't he have been around the square, or at least at Pauline's funeral, they were really close ages ago. I thought he'd be around to comfort Martin and stuff.

whos Derek?, i cant remember that character shows how much attention ive been paying over the years/

[Crimson Tears:(]

Derek was the man who moved in with Pauline. He was middle aged and gay. There was some humour scenes because Pauline tried to romance him.....only to find he was gay. He used to work on the stall sometimes as well.

#oh yeah i rememeber. I thought they fell out though, maybe not. He wasnt really a family member though. At least this time the had an explanation from Michelle.

Im supprised they didnt get ant messages from sharon tho. she always reapears for funerals

[Katy]

oh yeah, maybe Letitia was on the sunbed and couldnt possible get away.

[Crimson Tears:(]

Did they have an explanation from Sharon? I can't quite remember if the two fell out, I thought he just moved in with his family instead and never appeared again. Probably got on the tube and disappeared into the black hole, which sucks in characters who are no longer needed by EE.

didn't they part on really bad terms and never keep contact? I also think he went off to live by his family and they weren't near the square so it would explain why he never knew...though I'm not 100% sure since all that is a bit vague.
