I don't remember where, but I did read he comes back. Good job too; even if the kids don't want anything to do with him, what has Denise done to warrant being left?

You mean Dan Ferraira, Abbie? They couldn't have him back as the actor's visa ran out.

The Ferriara? family could've had some great story lines instead they made them mundane and boring. Back to Kevin, they shouldn't get rid of him so soon, or have him and Denise split up because of what Shirley did to him and her own kids.
Those kids need a good slap, Kevin didn't have to bring them up as his own; but he did and did a great job. Now this has come up they think he's the worst thing to walk this earth.

Denise doesnt deserve to be left, I hope they get them together again :D

Thank you soapyclean!!! I've been waiting for someone to say that.

I've been sat watching EE thinking wtf is the matter with Deano and Carly. Kevin brings them up as his own, is the only thing solid in their lives and when it comes to light that their mother slept around whilst married to Kevin and fell pregnant because of it, not even knowing one of their names, the kids seem to think, yup lets blame Kevin and have a go at him!!!! :angry: And now Deano is off with his mum, enjoying himself, having totally forgiven her (so it seems) for having not found out the name of his father and for abandoning him and Carly in the first place. I want to slap the pair of them!

Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad and it seems its only taken Kevin to do a runner (and who can blame him) for Carly at least to maybe come to some kind of sense about the man he truly is.

Em... It is just Carly that is having the strop.. Deano when of the rail when he first heard but Kevin explain that he was the one bringing them up.. that he was the closest they would every get to a proper parent so Deano was ok with that.. Carly, on the other hand, said he was a big fat liar!! so when is the right time for someone to say "hey, I am not your dad but your mum walked out and I stayed to bring you up"

Would Carly have asked him to leave then??? I think Kevin is a great guy.. Carly was just jealous cause Kevin paid more attention to Jimbo (who was his real son) but i think he got the most attention cause he was ill. He could have told them after Jimbo died but Kevin didn't.. he waited until they could stand on their own feet before he considered leaving them

Jojo
09-02-2007, 12:34
Yeah - I remembered that about Deano, as they had that chat in the car lot when Deano was going to torch it didn't they.

There is no right time to tell a child that the person they thought was their father isn't their biological one. Shes like a 2 year old having a temper tantrum and strop lol

eastenders mad
10-02-2007, 10:28
he is probably just gone away to think about things.
Everyone in the family thinks he has just run away but Carly knows the reason why he left.
I don't think Deano will be happy though

maybe I'm wrong or i may have missed something but how do we know for definate that kevin is not their father? she fell pregnant with two one night stands? and kevin stayed with her even after the first one? something doesnt tally up, and this is a soap after all, why isnt anyone asking for a dna test? Please tell me if i have missed something :searchme:

parkerman
10-02-2007, 20:00
Maybe Kevin and Shirley didn't er...you know...er...so he knows that Deano and Carly couldn't be his.

Jojo
11-02-2007, 09:23
Kevin seems pretty definite that they aren't his biological children - maybe they've already had dna tests done in the past (although not sure if they did routine paternity testing 20 years ago), or like parkerman said, there are other ways that Kevin and Shirley know for sure that they aren't Kevins.

To me, if Kevin had any doubts, the first thing he'd have wanted done 20 years ago were to have it confirmed that they weren't his children.

It's such a sad situation. I feel sorry for Kevin, and I feel sorry for Carly and Deano. Everythings just a mess.

I felt bad for Deano, (watching the omnibous just now), when his mum went off with some blokes, and just left Deano in the pub on his own. She's acting like a mate rather than a mother, and I don't think that's right.

Reminding me a bit of Ab Fab, although without the comedy element.

Yeah, it's no wonder that extra said, "She's old enough to be your mother, mate." Maybe at the time, Kevin always had some thought in the back of his head that they actually were his biological children, so he didn't get any tests done, but has grown to accept that they aren't his, so that's what he's saying. Or maybe he still has some hope, so was just saying that as a way of getting them to hate Shirley, but like him, and it backfired.

EastEnders actor Phil Daniels has quit the BBC soap after nearly two years.

The 47-year-old – who joined the cast as Kevin Wicks in September 2005 – has decided not to renew his contract, provoking Walford executives to axe his on-screen children, Carly and Deano (played by Kellie Shirley and Matt Di Angelo).

Diane Parish – who plays Daniels' screen wife Denise – will also make a temporary exit at the same time while she has a baby in real life.

Speaking of his decision to quit, Daniels told The Sun: "EastEnders has been an absolute pleasure, but it was always my intention, after two years in the job, to move on and do other things.

"I'd like to thank all on the Square for making my stay such fun."

Kellie, 25, commented: "It's a shame the option on my contract hasn’t been picked up, but it wouldn't feel right to remain in the Square without the rest of my family.

"I've not been able to accept work while playing Carly and I can't wait to get my teeth into others roles - but I wouldn't change a thing about my EastEnders experience."

Di Angelo, 19, added: "I've had a really good time at EastEnders and I've learnt so much from the cast."

Phil Daniels, Diane Parish, Kellie Shirley and Matt Di Angelo will continue filming with the BBC soap until November, with their characters remaining on screen until the new year. Diane, however, will return after her period of maternity leave.

Meanwhile, actress Linda Henry – who plays Kevin Wicks' ex-wife Shirley Carter – is sticking with the BBC soap as earlier this month, Bobby Davro signed to appear as Vince Monks, a new love interest for the wayward barmaid.

Well this is just annoying! Why do actors decide just to do two years!? I mean why bother!? By the time you've got the character settled in and established them in the show, they want out, causing massize disruption for the show, and then they have to bring in more characters, which everyone takes a while to get used to. They need to hire actors that wont let their ego get the better of them.

There's no need to axe Carly and Deano if you ask me, they could easily remain on the show without Kevin, okay Deano is a bit of an idiot, but I like Carly's character, I'm gutted that she will be leaving.

The Wicks were one of my favourites! :thumbsdow

18-08-2007, 21:01
I don't see Diane returning after her maternity leave as her family will all be written out. Charley and Deno are both adults and could have remained on the square so I don't see there is a need to axe them. Maybe the writers think they have run out or stories lines for them.

DaVeyWaVey
18-08-2007, 21:04
To be fair, i think the Wicks family have been totally wasted on EE. In there 2 years on the show, i can't really think of anything that they've done that really stands out and goes down as an EE classic! The producers have wasted their characters despite me liking them as a family. They could have given them something massive to work with but it hasn't happened which is a bit of a letdown.

Just because Phil Daniels has decided to up and leave, i don't see why Carly and Deano have too as well. They should stay and maybe make amends with Shirley and live with her? If EE really wanted Carly and Deano to stay, they could make it happen!

Kim
18-08-2007, 23:46
Exactly. Maybe Deano would go as he hasn't really had anything to do with Shirley since the Polish builder was staying at her flat and making it into a worse place to be. He also seems to be the least mature of the two, and I don't think he would be able to survive on his own for very long. As for Carly; it would be good to see Shirley try to get her back on side as Carly did push her out into the road in front of Charlie's cab. I can't see Carly and Deano going off to the same place though unless Carly fails to find out what him and Chelsea have been up to.

I definitely agree that they could stay - I understood why they killed Nana Moon off when Shane Richie wanted to quit as Alfie, but this just isn't necessary.

I don't see why they've bothered to keep Denise and none of the kids - they will probably have to split her and Kevin up with her returning after her maternity leave, and so there's hardly a reason for her to fight with Shirley. She doesn't have the kids to look after, and if Deano goes terrified of Sean or something, why would Chelsea want to stick around?

20-08-2007, 10:21
I think Deano and Carly could stay on the Square anyway maybe with Pat. I liked Kevin and Denise its a shame they are leaving. I can't see how Denise can return. I really hope Chelesa and Squiggle are axed they are awful characters.

Johnny Allen
20-08-2007, 11:28
its a shame, I loved Phil Daniels in Eastenders but cant say I'll miss Deano. Hope Diane Parish will return though, still I think it wont be quite the same Denise without Kevin.

I'm sorry he is leaving. But fortunately Diane is staying I like her and I like Shirely. Carly could have stayed as well, and they introduced Deano well before Kevin came on board.

Florijo
21-08-2007, 11:31
I'm pleased they are leaving. I don't think they ever really worked and I think they are one of the two weak families right now (the Millers being the other ones).

Plus Pat deserves so much better and I would rather see her have storylines in her own right than being stuck with this lot in the background. Am very pleased Shirley and Denise are staying as I like them and thought Denise worked better without the Wicks'.

It's a shame Kevin's leaving. But I don't think/understand why they should axe Carly and Deano. They're now going to have to bring in a load of new characters....:rolleyes:

Also, if Denise is leaving for a bit, what's going to happen to Libby and Chelsea? :confused:

Maybe Chelsea decides it's about time that she stopped going wherever her Mum does, with her moving to Walford initially purely because Denise wanted to get away from Owen. I can't see them all taking a holiday for the duration of a maternity leave, unless it was to see Libby's gran; depending on whether or not she'd ceased contacting Owen. If Chelsea decided not to leave with Denise for a time, Libby might stay with Chelsea as she is 16 and has Darren, her mates and A Levels in Walford. (I'm guessing she will have started them by then.)

Just read this on the Digital Spy Forums:

EASTENDERS will screen its most gruesome death yet when Kevin Wicks gets killed in a car smash on New Year’s Eve.

So yet again, the soap’s writers are bringing us sack loads of doom and gloom during the festive season.

Last year Pauline Fowler died on Christmas Day.

Kevin, played by Phil Daniels, will be driving one of Phil Mitchell’s bent motors.

The car will career through Albert Square when a fault causes a crash.

In the accident, the car is flipped into the air and lands on its roof, impaling Kevin through the chest with a piece of wreckage.

And just to make sure Kev really is finished off, the death-trap vehicle then explodes in a ball of flames.

Kevin is caught up in Phil’s shady deals while trying to raise the cash to take son Deano on a round-the-world trip when he comes out of jail.

Phil (Steve McFadden) has blackmailed him by threatening to stop him renting the car lot unless he takes part in the dodgy car scam.

We told last August how actor Phil, 49, was quitting.

His decision prompted EastEnders chiefs to also axe Kevin’s kids, played by Kellie Shirley and Matt Di Angelo.

Kevin’s missus Denise is also set to vanish from screens because the actress who plays her, Diane Parish, is pregnant.

A source said: “Kevin’s death will be the horrid highlight of New Year’s Eve.”

THUG Phil Mitchell will be arrested for the murder of Kevin Wicks — in a shock EastEnders Xmas storyline.


Cops will swoop after a mystery witness in Albert Square provides evidence pointing the finger at him.

Car lot manager Kevin, played by Phil Daniels, died in a horror smash in 2007, leaving his new wife Denise widowed. He was driving an illegal "cut and shut" motor being sold by mechanic Phil.

The Mitchell brother has got away with the crime for four years but is being stalked by someone who knows he killed Kevin.

In the climax over the festive period, Phil is pushed to the brink of madness by the mystery tormentor with knowledge of all his wrongdoings.

The Scrooge-like Dickensian plot sees him revisit his worst acts — including Kevin's crash and the death of an innocent man when he and Frank Butcher burned down the car lot for an insurance job.

The build-up to the drama started this week when he got mysterious pictures in the post.

A source said: "Phil's past is catching up with him. Whoever it is knows a lot about him and his history. The problem is that list is as long as your arm.

"Everyone becomes a suspect and he starts to think people are laughing at him.

"He will almost be driven mad trying to find out who is tormenting him.

"In the end the police get the evidence they need to arrest him. But who hates Phil enough to fit him up? And will he get away with murder again?" Of course he will. This is Deadenders after all. Apart from that Philth Beetroot Man has the Met and the CPS in is pocket.

EASTENDERS hardman Phil Mitchell looks set to go down for a murder he didn't do. Phil to be nicked for murderEnders for Footy Chucky Venn Soap boozer is really teetotalCops try to pin the death of ex-fiancée Stella Crawford on him.

They re-open old cases after Phil — played by Steve McFadden — is arrested for the killing of car-lot manager Kevin Wicks.

Stella — played by Sophie Thompson — leapt to her death on their wedding day in 2007 after a roof-top exchange with Phil.

Phil is left staring at a double murder charge in the gripping storyline, which is currently being filmed.

It puts Queen Vic and R&R owner Phil at the centre of all the action from Christmas Day well into 2012.

An insider said: "The police have always been interested in Phil and with his chequered history his many ghosts from his past are coming back to haunt him.

"It's been a long time since Phil thought about Stella so when the police bring her up he's not at all happy. He didn't murder her but it's not looking good for him."

The insider added: "On paper Stella was a harmless spinster but, as everyone knows, she was a deranged loony who abused Phil's son Ben. There's a lot of trouble ahead for Phil as the cops are desperate to lock him up and throw away the key."

In 2005 Phil, who first appeared in the soap in 1990, was cleared of armed robbery after his brother Grant paid off witnesses.

EASTENDERS hardman Phil Mitchell's nightmare begins next week when he's arrested in a dawn raid.

The police turn up with a search warrant in the early hours of the morning in scenes to be aired next Tuesday.

Phil, played by Steve McFadden, is currently hiding a case of stolen watches.

He breathes a sigh of relief when the cops turn up nothing but panics when they say they will apply for warrants for his pub the Queen Vic, the garage at the Arches and nightclub R&R.

A source said: "At first Phil is really worried but then he becomes angry about the sudden police attention.

"He knows he's got an enemy out there and he vows to finally root them out."

Sounds like someone is trying to Mitch him up!

Former EastEnders star Phil Daniels has argued that it's time to cancel the BBC soap.

The actor, who played Kevin Wicks between 2006 and 2007, believes that the show has run its course after 30 years.

Daniels told The Sun: "I'd take it off the telly if I could. I just think it's run its course. It's nothing to do with any of the acting as I think people do really good work in it.

"I just feel that it is time for something different. EastEnders and Coronation Street seem a bit like the opium of the masses now. Why don't they try something else for the British public?"

Daniels also criticised the London soap for its gloomy plots, adding that he wasn't happy with how miserable his character became.

"I went into the show to be a comedy part," he explained. "Then the gags started disappearing and I had a kid that died of cystic fibrosis and a wife that was violent.

"My character got more and more miserable. I just don't think they've got the writers for gags on that show. They need a few more jokes."



I must admit that I currently feel the same and not just EastEnders :o:(

Yep he maybe right, it is so dull now, most storylines have been done before or are copied from other soaps.
Maybe something new and not been done before.
What about Sibling attraction, (don't think it's been done before) or at the very least a very close relative.
Maybe Kat's son could end up meeting someone on the Square (Stacey??) and no one knows who he is, STacey and him fall in love, and only the viewers know who he is.
The Script writers could decide how far this is to go, but I am sure in this day and age, with kids being adopted, fostered etc, that it must surely happen!

Brookside had an incest storyline when it was running, I think Hollyoaks did too but (don't watch it, not sure), Emmerdale had it with Ryan Lamb and Maisie Wylde (they did not know they were siblings), so I think this storyline would not be novel

To be honest I think Phil Daniels sounds quite bitter. Eastenders has never been a barrel of laughs so I don't know what he was expecting when he joined. It's no more miserable now than it's ever been in my opinion. Rape storyline aside, I'm mostly enjoying it a lot at the moment.

I think hes just cancelled any hope of being
" recalled to life" and the wrong body
having been identified in car crash!

I was surprised to read the story - bitter
as you say- and said a lot more than needed
to make the point. If its over -its over(for
him anyway) should concentrate on his
current life.

I think.EE does have some comic moments
even when.doing serious stories!!

I think EE has just about the right balance of humour mostly provided by Kim, Donna, Kush and Tamwar with his very laid back dry comments. Of course Mr Daniels is entitled to his opinion. I assume he's a regular viewer :hmm: Maybe the Beeb should start worrying when sites such as Soapboards cease commenting about the show.

Yes, EE can be very funny at times. Sharon has a nice line in bitchy comments. "You're lucky I don't kick that walking stick from under you" (or words to that effect) springs to mind. http://www.easyfreesmileys.com/smileys/free-rolleye-smileys-842.gif (http://www.easyfreesmileys.com/facebook-smileys.html)

I doubt it after that lambasting. :p (It's not the first time he's done it either!)

It's like the saying "There's no such thing as bad publicity". As long as we're discussing EE, whether it be complaints or praise, they know they're doing something right. http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smileys-and-emoticons/wink/smileys-wink-226524.gif (http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/)

Indeed. Some rather unbelievable and silly plots around for some time in Corrie!
