Noooo...yes yes i'm one of the sad people Alan, but I really AM sooo upset, luckily though my cousins were watching it with me and would have thought me weird for crying so I held it in! It will come out after though :(

Couldn't Eastenders give them a happy sending off? i was WILLING them to get in that cab, the amount of times they were nearly gone, but something came up! :crying:

i kept shouting that when all the shannis mush was going on i was like hes got a massize stab wound! he passed loadsa people and fell to the floor! shareon was sobbing and even after she screamed it took every 10 seconds to gather around! this was just a laugh and a half! and it spoilt the moment for me!

finally dennis is dead! his character and Nigel Harman really were starting to ruin the show and Sharon/Leititia! Now hes gone the show can move on onwards and upwardss! :cheer:

I don't get it (so, call me thick, am I bothered?). Johnny is lying in his office, covered in blood from the beating that Dennis gave him, so how did Dennis get stabbed or shot and by whom?

Also, did anyone else have that cartoon flashback with the little red devil (Phil) on the hero's shoulder telling him to do the bad thing? Then there was the angel on the other shoulder (Sharon) telling him to leave it? I almost expected the Coyote to come up with his Acme 'save the day' device!

the shot of dennis/johnnys phone in johnnys hand suggests that johnny made the call before he passed out...

the person who commited the murder is a nodbody, like that Sean that was sent to frighten Peggy back in October.

If we're blaming anyone folks dont blame Johnny, blame Dennis for handing him the phone that was used to call the hit!

littlemo
30-12-2005, 21:12
It was sad, but I didn't cry. I did think the death scene was a bit stupid, if I'm honest. You see him standing there all happy and fine, and all of a sudden he's been stabbed/shot and has fallen down dead. When I look back I suppose it was quite clever, but I didn't feel that at the time.

I taped it, but I can only watch certain bits again. I certainly can't see that bit outside Pauline's where Phil is convincing him to go to see Johnny Allen, it was so cruel, it just upsets me! The way he taunted him.

I think Phil is more to blame than Johnny. What Johnny does is work to him, if somebody annoys him he kills them off, Phil sent Dennis to Johnny for selfish reasons, to do with himself, noone else. We've always known Johnny is evil, you'd think Phil would have been able to put his differences aside for Sharon.
But to be fair to Phil (if I can bring myself to say it), Sharon didn't tell him she was pregnant. If that would even make a difference to him, I don't know.

Yep thats what I think as well

Kim
30-12-2005, 21:17
Maybe then he'd of seen how much Sharon needed Dennis but I don't think that Phil thought that getting Dennis to go after Johnny was going to end in his death, so I think he would still have done the same.

Yes you could be right, but I'm just wondering what the significance was of Dennis giving Johnny the phone. Maybe it was the writers showing us how much of a nice guy Dennis is, and how worlds apart he is from somebody like Johnny Allen. And of course the only reason he gave him the phone was because he mentioned his daughter, and that got him thinking about his own baby, and his family. So I suppose that made him empathise with him a little bit.

Suzanne
30-12-2005, 21:22
Maybe then he'd of seen how much Sharon needed Dennis but I don't think that Phil thought that getting Dennis to go after Johnny was going to end in his death, so I think he would still have done the same.

I don't think it would have mattered to Phil at all. Phil still had an axe to grind with Dennis because of Dennis' part of setting Phil up in that robbery. Phil was winding Dennis up, told Dennis about the threats Johnny made on Sharon, and THAT was what made Dennis go after Johnny.

littlemo
30-12-2005, 21:24
Maybe then he'd of seen how much Sharon needed Dennis but I don't think that Phil thought that getting Dennis to go after Johnny was going to end in his death, so I think he would still have done the same.

I know that conversation between Sharon and Phil went past quickly and was quite a few days ago, but some people seem to be forgetting that Sharon did actually tell Phil that Johnny said he was going to kill Dennis if they didn't leave before midnight. She even told him about Andy Hunter to convince him that Johnny was a man to be taken at his word.

I suppose after everything that happened with Dalton, Phil thought Dennis was more than capable of sorting out Johnny Allen. But there's always the chance that he would be killed. If somebody has a hit out on you, it's very difficult to escape it isn't it?! It's taking your life in your hands whatever happens. Phil was totally in the wrong!

Midnight

I thought it was a bit rushed but very sad, especially at the end. All in all, I don't think it did Dennis justice.

I thought it was a bit rushed but very sad, especially at the end. All in all, I don't think it did Dennis justice.

I agree, I don't think it did Dennis justice. The running theme throughout the episode was a star. We had the moon with Kat and Alfie, and now we have the star, Why?! Dennis's character isn't that sentimental. It's unrealistic to suggest that Dennis would talk about that to Sharon let alone Phil Mitchell. He's not one to express his emotions easily.

Also the fact that after all this time, and how much Sharon and Dennis have been through together, he would jeopardise that for getting his own back on Johnny Allen. The fact that he was doing it for her, doesn't mean much when he's dead. He should have had more sense, he needed to use his brain.

It's sad that Dennis's dead, because Sharon and the baby are alone now, but for Nigel Harman, it's all celebrations for him.

Angeldelight
30-12-2005, 22:19
me and J_B_L have figured it out it's actually his mates Tony fault.

If Tony hadn't needed money Dennis wouldn't have gone to get it off Dalton when he got out of prison and then Dennis wouldn't have owed Dalton.

If Dennis hadn't owed Dalton, Dalton wouldn't have sent Phil after him, Dennis wouldn't have made the deal with Phil to kill Dalton. so Dalton wouldn't have told Dennis that Den was really alive so he wouldn't have killed him.

Then if Dalton hadn't told Dennis, he wouldn't have gone looking for Den and found him and Vicki wouldn't have found the address and brought him back.

Dennis and Sharon would still have gotten together on 29th sept '03 and instead of them finding Den in the club they'd have stayed together then he wouldn't be dead.

littlemo
30-12-2005, 22:24
Wow there's a lot of ifs in that aren't there. Tony seemed like a nice enough guy, Dennis is a good friend, if anybody he cared about asked for money he would have got it for them. I don't think it's down to Tony. Dennis did it on his own accord, he could have always said no.

actually i only wrote three... hehe :angel:

i can't believe how sad that eppy was... i mean Phil taunting him, trying to make him to his dirty work... it just made me sick that Phil would manipulate Dennis that much, just so he didn't have to lift the fist himself.

oh my god and when they found each other in the square and he grinned at her. and then... and then... the man stabbed him and he knew... he knew he was dying before he even got to Sharon and she had to watch him die.

how bloody cruel were those writers, i mean come on you'd have thought they'd have given them some kind of break... i can't believe he's dead... :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

Hi that was a great espisode i was in floods of tears

I loved the dot and dennis scene very touching it just remind me of how much i loved there conversation together :( :(

I also i found the kiss on the neck i took that as a sign for sharon that he knew what johnny did to her and the hold of hand very sweet i think he was debating were or not to do it :( :(

When he beat up johnny sat there that was striking moment i thought

The scene with sonia and chloe were sonia said that chloe was her star i think it reminded him of the star he was talking an about with phil and how the baby and sharon are his stars :(

My eye were filling up by this time but then in the square were sharon asked phil were dennis was as she turned she smiled his face just lit up and with that i was truly heartbreaking and then the ends scenes dont get me started on that truly heartbreaking :crying:

Phil is a coward and bully i find his bullying of dennis unforgivenable he has no backbone i hope sharon finds out what he did and he is the reason dennis was sent to his death

johnny allen is the same both as bad as each other :

I Great acting from nigel and letita as always :)

I'm not sorry Dennis is dead, the character was ruined the minute they decided to concentrate his storylines around rubbish concepts such as Zonnis (:sick: ) and Shannis (double :sick: ) . Dennis would have been a better character if his storylines concentrated on his past and his relationship with Den instead of this naff, soppy romantic rubbish that went on and on and on and on and on...*yawn*

I see Phil is now the official Walford Panto Villain. :rolleyes: Is Dennis really that thick? Phil was obviously winding him up to get him to react, jeez. This episode was so contrived and corny. Phil with his whispering devil in the ear act, Dot and Dennis' talk and his interaction with Chloe so the viewers know that Dennis is just a poor wee soul who just had a rough life.

Johnny's CCTV had a starring role again. So now Phil will obviously know that Dennis beat Johnny up, that Johnny made a call to a hitman (I'm presuming that is what he did) and that all the evidence points to Johnny as being Dennis' killer and then bye, bye Johnny. Dennis gone, Johnny gone and Phil goes walking off into the sunset again. :rolleyes:

What they are doing to Phil reminds me of what they did to him when Grant left and in the months leading up to him getting shot. I don't think they can decide whether Phil is a complete nasty psycho, or just a bad boy who loves his mum, brother, sister and kids but is not all that nice to be around. Surely he must get his commupance?

He should have been allowed to but instead the scriptwriters totally changed his character so as they could bring back the Chuckle Brothers. At least johnny was beleivable as a gangster unlike his predecessor :)

No, it's not like he knew Johnny was going to kill Dennis and stopped them escaping on purpose. He just wanted to say goodbye properly.

Johnny, the person that actually did it, and to a slightly lesser (but not much) degree Phil, are the only people that are responsible for Dennis's death.

Of course he shouldn't feel guilty. That's just such a ridiculous statement. To hold Ian responsible rather than Phil or Johnny.

I hate the way that ee did the whole,thing with dennnis, i mean dennis and dot had a heart to heart they only did that becuase he was dying
(does this make sense) they like focus on him too much, this ain't a bad thing but they had to go and do it before he died!

Liked the scene in the house with denni and phil 'i've always had a soft spot for you'
That bit!

I have been kidding myself till last night i didnt think he was gonna die i thought there was gonna be a huge twist and then when dennis came out of the house i was like he ain't gonna die, and then i thought one of the fireworks might hit him!


Anyways i thought nigel was fab! :cheer:

me to loved Dot and Dennis, at that point I thought is it going to be an hour episode, than I would have missed the second half, as i taped it. But no they managed to kill him in a minutes worth of tv time, it was done to rushed, it did Dennis no justice at all.
But yes I cried.:crying: Luckilly my husband was in the living room I always feel a bit embarassed when I cry in front of the television. Will miss Dennis though!

I wonder if there will be a twist in that the only call Johnny made was a 999 call and that he did not order the hit. Instead Dennis' death was arranged by Dalton's men. However Sharon would still believe it to be Johnny who is responsible and wants revenge.

or maybe it was just some thug out to stab someone and dennis was there?

Nigel lying motionless on the ground outside the Vic was probably his finest acting moment in EE ever. :clap:

I don't think so. I think his scenes with Dalton have to have been his best work. When he first arrived, I think most people just saw him as a pretty face, the Dalton stuff made us realise how fantastic an actor he actually was. There's also been plenty of other stuff.

He should have been allowed to but instead the scriptwriters totally changed his character so as they could bring back the Chuckle Brothers. At least johnny was beleivable as a gangster unlike his predecessor :)

Yes Andy wasn't realistic, but Dalton had to be the best gangster. Although we only saw him for a short time on screen, his scenes with Dennis were fantastic!

I think that would be bit to much of a coincidence. It's got to be down to Johnny. I'm not sure whether he had arranged it before he was attacked by Dennis or after but I'm sure he's involved somehow.

I know Johnny doesn't have any morals, but when he told Dennis that he should help him for his daughter's sake, Dennis left him the phone. So I would hope that he would pay Dennis the same gesture, for his unborn child. But it's probably too much to ask from Johnny. He probably phoned his gangster friends the moment Phil left the room. What an evil man!

Pure evil, just saw the film Constatine with Keanu Reeves he fits right into the film.

If I was the soap police the first people I would call in for questioning for Dennis's murder would be Alan and Richie.
Reporting for Duty, Sir. :cool:

Though to be fair his character was ruined when they started giving him storylines to do with his family, and that was well before the Mitchells turned up. Until then he was really promising. What a shame how his character has turned out. :( :mad:

Remember this is EE and everything must be tailored round Grunt, Beetroot Dogger and the poison dwarf aka the Magnificent Mitchells

what a sad episode :( however it was really sweet when Dennis said "We did it" i started crying then as ive just found out im pregnant about the same time sharon did (xmas!) and found it all really sad as they were both so happy and nearly got away. i hope she doesn't loose the baby that would just be the final straw for her wouldnt it.
