Apparently, Eastenders wanted to destroy ben's character after he was awarded? No sense. Whatever happened outside the soap this is ridiculous and shows no sympathy for Max who pretty much elevated the character again.
Omg this is so lame. This is ridiculous. I can't believe this is his exit. Seriously, who came up with this idea of a story. Did they put some ideas in a hat and picked randomly something. I mean i have no word.
All becuase he wanted more money maybe he was a little of an asshole about it but if I had been carrying the show for years I would be pissed im being payed scraps
The storyline is ridiculous credit card fraud. The producers don't like Max Bowden. The guy on EastEnders for five years and he gets a shit exit. People don't get extradited for that. This storyline isn't believable. I get that the actor got sacked but this makes no sense.
That’s right. With all the musical chairs with the Arches, I forgot he sold it to Sharon? I don’t get it though, where is the money? Lola never had the treatment & btw whats Ben been doing to make a living?
@@samanthab1923 like you said, Lola never had the treatment. So he's had the money from selling the Arches and that's what he's been living off for the last 10 months
Yeah, I wanted to give this story the benefit of the doubt ... but Ben being arrested for credit card fraud while he was in America? Thank you I hate it.
Extradition to America is never the way to go. It IS as much of a hellscape as they make it out to be. There is nothing good there and the prison system is appalling.
@@richardajoy79 My guess is he will get a minimum sentence and in six months time Harry Reid will be back. They (i.e. Clenshaw) really did show his dislike for Max Bowden in this exit.

I agree, credit card fraud wasn't even a big spender!
Pathetic storyline.
What a weird storyline to end on. I suppose the writers wanted to punish the actor by giving him a lame rushed storyline.

The obvious retcon cause are we forgetting he sold the arches to get money 😐 like this is laughable

@@mrdr0161 OK I wondered what he was living on. So why did he use the stolen credit card?
Didn't he sell the arches for the money?

“Could be 6 months, could be 6 years” and 6 years is exactly what he got
Bye Ben Mitchell you definitely be missed ❤
This sucks as an exit
I can't believe Ben is arrested for the credit card fraud while he was in America from outside of England on the show!! 😢
I can cos it’s his exit 🙄
Unfortunately they said he brought his personal life into the show 😢😢😢😢
So does Jessie Wallace, drunken and violent in her private life, but she has got away with it more than once.
Definitely
Great drama xxxx ❤
Well all miss Ben Mitchell ❤
Maybe he returns 6 years later
The actor is leaving, so I guess extradition to America is a good way to go.

@@torilove4868 , it is fiction & I don't think they've done an extradition to the US storyline before.

Extradition is usually for serious crimes like rape and murder not credit card fraud.
@@algiles881harry reid was a boring ben mitchell. I won't be watching that and he will have no chemistry with tony clay/callum.
