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

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

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:

Maybe Kevin and Shirley didn't er...you know...er...so he knows that Deano and Carly couldn't be his.

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.
