Haven't I Seen Them Before?

Hiya guys, thought I'd start a thread that can be used for ever, dont you hate it when you see a bit part character or a new charcter that used to be in another soap or drama but you cant recall which one?

Well this thread can be for us to place our queries and other posters can help us that are stuck.

Joel Beckett's done an episode of Holby City which was recently repeated on UK Gold too *has the pictures somewhere*. He played Joel.

the idea of the forum is that when we see someone we recognise, we say who they were in rather than at the mo we are just saying waht the whole cast has been if ya know what i mean

Katy

Sorry BB! I'll shut up now! :lol:

Treacle

It's not really general though this is just for EastEnders because it's stuck in here but I understand if we do see anyone we recognise we can ask in here what they were in.

I think people just wanted to get a few basics outlined so people can come and check if it's there already.

Jade
10-07-2005, 15:55
Although the idea is for when people crop up we mention but it's good to know what the actors have been in as well.

Also its better than random thread cropping up everywhere to say "I didnt know Jake was in the office" etc.

Yes Rosie Miller was in the episode of Only Fools and Horses when Del Boy went hangliding. Del and Rodney were both interested in her, and they were both playing jokes trying to make each other look stupid. Del put Rodney under the sunbed and he burnt, and then Rodney convinced her that Delboy always wanted to hanglide, so they organised it as a 'treat' for his birthday. It turned out in the end that she was already engaged. It was a funny episode, and she played a much less serious character in that.

I think she was mean't to be Trigger's niece.

baileya
13-08-2005, 20:57
wow that was rosey :eek: can not believe that. I will be watching that episode now about 10 times aswell as taping the omnibus tomorrow. I remember Jim playing the security guard in the shop hold up that time.

I've just been watching the episode with Den's funeral again. When the episode was first shown, I recognised the chap who came up to Dennis, as he stood by the grave and told him they were closing the gates in ten minutes. He then asked if it was someone close. After he'd walked away Dennis broke down and said "I hardly knew him"
On watching it again today I found it really irritating that I still didn't know who the chap was. Can anyone tell me who he was and what else I might have seen him in?

How funny is this? I think I saw Perry Fenwick in a Chemical Brothers video. Block Rocking Beat. Can anyone verify this?

Yes, he was in the video.

Melvyn Hayes (played Dot's driving instructor in 2005) appeared in an episode of Dangerous Drivers' School on Channel 5 a while back. Just found it on Demand 5. The irony.
