It breaks my heart that you guys may have been rejected by one or both parents. I’m 47 and when I came out at 22 my parents “We were wondering when you would feel comfortable telling us.
I came out to family almost 3 weeks ago, and at the time as I was saying the words, all I could think of was this video with the music. I had watched the clip numerous times before I had the courage to do it. I just wanted to say thank you to Matgo for this clip, and to all who took part in the original piece. It went rather well btw.
I can understand how you feel because I revealed to both my parents that I was bisexual when I was around my early-mid 20's and as far as I'm aware they're both okay with it.
I told my mum I was bi, I assumed she knew when she walked in my room to find me and a naked dude in my bed. But apparently she didn’t suspect or she believed my lie, whatever it was. Then months later after a dark painful day I tell her I wanna see a friend, she says that’s not a good idea I should be home now, not with friends. Then I said he’s my boyfriend not my friend and she was surprised but not in a negative way, and she agreed I could go to his. I was in my early 20s so she couldn’t keep me but I wanted her to be okey with me going out and telling her why, was the only way I could think of doing it. It succeeded and she’s never treated me different, nor has my step dad who isn’t homophobic but is of a generation and upbringing where he’s unsympathetic/uninterested with lgbt rights but would never discriminate or treat people differently. He’s just not interested in hearing/reading about it all the time, as am I. I may be bi but I don’t consider myself LGBT because that comes with a lot of political garbage, especially the T’s (Dave chapelle) I’m Just a dude that has the capacity to feel attraction and affection for certain males along with certain females and certain transgenderers. “1000 years from now they’ll be no guy and no girls just wankers. Sounds great to me………….you see we’re heterosexual by default not by decision, it’s just a question of who you fancy. Pity nobody told begbie that” Cut to begbie in a car with a ‘woman” he slides his hand between her legs and notices something he knew existed but never thought he’d encounter. I always wondered did begbie hurt that trans women or drag queen or whatever or did he just F.O - A.S.A.F.P. ? Does this happen in the book?
It was actually pretty cool that they played the Dad being fine with it and the Mum not. It’s usually the other way around but it does happen and it’s more common than we think.
Worth remembering that mum wasn’t homophobic. She was afraid that her son would have a harder life now and that men would break his heart in a way women wouldn’t. She wasn’t angry, disgusted or disappointed. She was afraid for the well-being of her son.
His career is going great. He was in Netflix’s mindhunter made by David fincher, where he portrays a real life serial rapist and killer called monty Rizzo. He was also one of the leads in the 2017 Texas chainsaw massacre prequel “leatherface” To my best knowledge he’s one of the most successful post eastenders actors. I know Lucy’s brother was in X-men apocalypse but his role was small and far from impressive.
I Love Johnny, he's one of my favourite characters :) I like the way he's not a stereotypical Gay person in the soaps he just acts Normal which is Relatable!!!
there isn’t anything called “normal gay” it is natural. it might be hard to understand, but there isn’t a “normal gay” is is who they want to be (from experience)
I'm Bi but don't tell anybody (apart from the dudes I hook up with)n because most girls always say "I could never go out with a bi guy" or even worse "I could never shag a guy that shagged other guys"
I'm bisexual as well and my whole friend group is as well, I'm glad I have friends who support each other and I'm sorry you got bullied for it, that's awful
This scene and the way it was handled was such an inspirational to me back in the day, it gave me the confidence to come out to my friends and family♥️
Had tears in my eyes throughout this whole scene and seeing the clip on the soap awards last night set me off again! Amazing acting from Sam and Danny, love those guys, such a powerful storyline which I related to a lot.
Wow! That was incredibly moving. I've never even seen the show before, but this isolated scene, even out of context of larger characterization, was enough to make me tear up.
Amazing and inspiring acting from Sam here, I actually love this guy and his character relates to me so much, some of the language his dad uses in this I've heard by my own mum and dad and it seriously brought me to tears as it connected with me like nothing before
This was a very moving scene. Tears up, I recommend you go to RUclips and watch the scene without the very annoying music put into this video. And check out Linda vs Johnny eastenders. A real treat, and later Linda says to Johnny. Please try for ME ! What a ruthless, annoying, manipulative character Linda is. She does this with Mick and the whole family. Soaps usually put some character, usually a woman. To provide such irritating sandpaper person.
@@MatgoStyles you should have mentioned you added the music in the title. it didn't need it and made a scene played brilliantly and very real into some sort of appeal video.
Bless you, we can hope that you’re dad is accepting, but in true, parents just want what’s best for us, & no matter our sexuality, we’re still human & we have a right to be in this world just as much as any other person does, I have my fingers crossed that your dad has the same acceptance as mick did, but remember we are here no mater what :) xx
Mick is the kind of father every kid deserves and just imagine him for a husband, my gosh it will be like winning the love lottery !!! Danny Dyer is seriously an amazing actor ( hot too yess :) ).
If every gay boy had a Dad like that, this world would be a totally different place. In fact, let's take it a step further... Every child should be so blessed to have a Dad like that. Love and acceptance change the world.
I hadn't told my Dad when I watched this. I remember wanting it to be like this scene. Thankfully it was. I remember watching this scene and breaking down. It made be proud of who I was.
When this first aired it kinda spoke to me and I didn't know why until I started to think that maybe I was gay and i felt this feeling in the pit of my stomach and it lifted when I was in private and I said the words "I'm gay" and that feeling was gone and suddenly I got all scared and ignored it and it's taken me a few years to fully come to terms with what I said and hell I'm only now beginning to come out and be happy with myself. Not come out to the folks just yet but people who I have told like my uncle, aunt and cousin told me they still loved me and I knew I'd be fine.
How do you not know your not gay? I think I always knew I was gay. I'm just interested in how you didn't know, were you attracted to girls at one point?
There is absolutely no reason for a gay man a lesbian woman a bisexual or transgender to feel unatural they are who they are and in my opinion theres fuck all wrong with it and im a perfectly straight female with no doubt about my sexaulity and still find it fine.
I bloody love you Danny "Mick Carter" Dyer 😍😍😍😍😍 this scene brought tears to my eyes and I love how it was done (without the soundtrack) so naturally. Like you were sitting in there with them. Not over acted or made into a panto. Just a doting daddy and his beautiful boy. Can't stop watching it lol. To my LGBTQ friends and fam, as Mick said it best, "There is nothing unnatural about you" ❤
I remember seeing this when it was aired. I'd figured out around the same time that I was Pansexual, as well as Transgender, and struggled with it and what it meant for my future, as well as how to tell my religious family. This scene was very comforting to watch at such as bad time. I wish my parents had reacted the way Mick had (my mum called me a freak and forced me to come out to my dad, who didn't believe me and thought I'd "get over it". It's for this reason that I haven't told him that I'm trans).
I so wish every father was like this when their child comes out as gay. Unfortunately its not always the case and that's sad because their child should still be loved and wanted no matter what they fancy.
Worth remembering that mum wasn’t homophobic. She was afraid that her son would have a harder life now and that men would break his heart in a way women wouldn’t. That he would face bigotry, discrimination and possibly violence. She wasn’t angry, disgusted or disappointed. She was AFRAID for the well-being of her son.
The Relief that Johnny felt when he realized his Dad would NOT REJECT him for being gay. Trust me. Both my parent’s said “Yes we know. We suspected that you might be gay when your were 6 years Old.” It’s like 20,000 tons being lifted off your shoulders
Watching this at the time was the final push that made me come out to my parents… unfortunately they were not nearly as understanding as this but god I wish I was as lucky to receive a reaction like this one. Beautiful scene
beautifully done....wish my dad was like that at 1st.
what topped it off "so your the one we should have called nancy!"
I admit I cried at seeing this scene, two fantastic actors and an awesome storyline! Well done boys
Ryan Luke I cried when Johnny cried
I know exactly how you feel, even I can't watch this without it setting off waterworks
Im not a big soap fan but this scene is one of the most lovely things ive scene on tv. Danny dyer has my respect
Now thats what i call a father!
I wish I had a dad like mick :/
rayna lee me too want to hold me tight....
Same
rayna lee facts
He is hot... i want him to adopt me...
It breaks my heart that you guys may have been rejected by one or both parents. I’m 47 and when I came out at 22 my parents “We were wondering when you would feel comfortable telling us.
This is such a beautiful. Sam Strike and Danny Dyer really outdid themselves here!
***** Have there ever been coming-out scenes similar to this on U.S television?

I really liked this and how the dad responded.
We need more scenes like this it’s a scene that deserves millions of awards x
I cry my eyes out at this. The acting is outstanding! I miss Sam Strike as Johnny!
Taylor Jones yesssss. Ted was great but sams gotta come back
Sam was the hotter and a better actor
His career is going great. He was in Netflix’s mindhunter made by David fincher, where he portrays a real life serial rapist and killer called monty Rizzo. He was also one of the leads in the 2017 Texas chainsaw massacre prequel “leatherface”
To my best knowledge he’s one of the most successful post eastenders actors.

@@arsenalarsenalmad11 not gonna happen. Sams career is going great will continue to do so if he doesn’t screw up his life Hollywood style
I Love Johnny, he's one of my favourite characters :) I like the way he's not a stereotypical Gay person in the soaps he just acts Normal which is Relatable!!!
Glenn Bill no such thing as normal. Its just you
Delia Smith is a fucking good chef fuck off,!!!!!!
Glenn Bill same
there isn’t anything called “normal gay” it is natural. it might be hard to understand, but there isn’t a “normal gay” is is who they want to be (from experience)
Glenn Bill didn’t Johnny Die?
Why can't everyone's parent be like this? T~T
This helps me.A lot,
I'm Bi and people bully me for it.
This helps me so much now.Thank lord for this video,
Fluffy Suga its okay..be you😊🌈
Fluffy Suga don't let that stuff get to you were in the same boat🌈❤️
I'm Bi but don't tell anybody (apart from the dudes I hook up with)n because most girls always say "I could never go out with a bi guy" or even worse "I could never shag a guy that shagged other guys"
I'm bisexual as well and my whole friend group is as well, I'm glad I have friends who support each other and I'm sorry you got bullied for it, that's awful
Awwwwwwww... My dad was just like that!! He is so supportive to me, I´m so lucky!! :D
That is a wonderful scene
Still very touching after all these years! Awesome acting too.
i had tears in my eyes at the part when he said it as well
That was the hardest I've cried since... since ever
I'm not crying.
My eyes are sweating
well written, acted and shot. Brilliant.
What a great dad!!!!

Am in so much tears right now I wish father's will be the same thing
One of the sweetest and heart moving coming out scene I have ever seen on a TV show ♥ Greetings from Italy :)
Wow! That was incredibly moving. I've never even seen the show before, but this isolated scene, even out of context of larger characterization, was enough to make me tear up.
Well in that case I should say Johnny has a sister called “nancy”
Amazing and inspiring acting from Sam here, I actually love this guy and his character relates to me so much, some of the language his dad uses in this I've heard by my own mum and dad and it seriously brought me to tears as it connected with me like nothing before
very emotional I wish l had a dad like Mick
That was beautiful😍💯
I officially cried watching this :'(
Love the Carter family .
love danny dyer
Why did you put the ridiculous music over the top of it? That wasn't in the original airing!
The original airing is already on RUclips - go watch it there.
This was a very moving scene. Tears up, I recommend you go to RUclips and watch the scene without the very annoying music
put into this video. And check out Linda vs Johnny eastenders. A real treat, and later Linda says to Johnny. Please try for ME !
What a ruthless, annoying, manipulative character Linda is. She does this with Mick
and the whole family. Soaps usually put some character, usually a woman. To provide such irritating sandpaper person.

I still haven't yet come out to my dad. My mum already knew I was gay. hopefully my dad is like Mick when I tell him aswell X
Typical Anthony how’d it go did you tell your dad
Good luck💖
Maybe you should break the ice a bit by playing this scene for your Dad? Good luck when you do tell him
Bless you, we can hope that you’re dad is accepting, but in true, parents just want what’s best for us, & no matter our sexuality, we’re still human & we have a right to be in this world just as much as any other person does, I have my fingers crossed that your dad has the same acceptance as mick did, but remember we are here no mater what :) xx
Update your fans to how your dad reacted to finding out your gay.
that's what all fathers should be like
This made me smile. I do not know why but it does.
Watched this scene 20+ times, cried every time. Brilliantly acted by both actors. Can I watch EastEnders on the other side of the pond?
I'm like tearing up over here, can we not T_T
shut up
what lol
+Ashley Forbs why the fuck shut up to us for no reason bitch!
+Ashley Forbs why the fuck are u saying shut up for no reason u bitch@
+Rosie Begum i don't care

Mick is the kind of father every kid deserves and just imagine him for a husband, my gosh it will be like winning the love lottery !!! Danny Dyer is seriously an amazing actor ( hot too yess :) ).
I love old jhonny
I love Danny even more.
Thanx for uploading...
Greetings from Poland !

This made me cry
I actually think the music made it better
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
4 years ago fucking hell it was better back then too
I love Johnny so much
this is really sweet

Exactly what I said, every child should be blessed with a Dad like that !!!
Emotional scene really beautiful 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️

What a nice and sexy dad
Oh, the music.
Such a great video live Johny ❤️ Abbie
I hadn't told my Dad when I watched this. I remember wanting it to be like this scene. Thankfully it was. I remember watching this scene and breaking down. It made be proud of who I was.
Oh...that killing me, this reminds me a conversacion that i had, is like when you can't hide a reality that everyone sees.
3 years on and this scene STILL FUCKING GETS ME EVERYTIME 😭😪😢🌈🌈
This was a good scene. I had never heard of this series before.
I'm gonna cry 😭
Don't like the fact that he's hating on camp men, but this made me cry despite that
I'm gay myself but I don't like camp men. I don't like the gay community as a whole in fact.
His not saying that he hates them he just doesn't understand it but he'd be fine with it
Great acting
This is so cute
Was just expecting him to get out his saw 😂
Danny dyer is one hell of an actor! Looks so real
Cried like a baby the bond between father and son is important
Gets me every freakin tim

Omg so amazing
In this scene Danny Dyer gets absolutely brilliantly spot on extreme matter that your son's gay you should love him for who he is
There is absolutely no reason for a gay man a lesbian woman a bisexual or transgender to feel unatural they are who they are and in my opinion theres fuck all wrong with it and im a perfectly straight female with no doubt about my sexaulity and still find it fine.

Winder hiw many of those tears were acted? cause what Mick said was truly moving.

lol holding back tears
every father ,most reacat this way when a son of daugter come out, sorry for my english
Worth remembering that mum wasn’t homophobic. She was afraid that her son would have a harder life now and that men would break his heart in a way women wouldn’t. That he would face bigotry, discrimination and possibly violence.
She wasn’t angry, disgusted or disappointed. She was AFRAID for the well-being of her son.
this is the way to accept your child that he is homosexual, the love for your child is the most important thing, no matter what !!!!!!!
How could he going and turn into a psychotic chainsaw wielding killer after this!
Never seen Danny diear cry
I remember it
Please could you add a version of this without the music? Thank you!
Great acting, i just cant understand why they wrote him out the script...
Sam Strike chose to leave the show.
This is so emotional but Johnny crying is so funny 😂😍😘 I'm bisexual and none of my family suppprt me only my cousin and some of my friends 😭😭😭
The Relief that Johnny felt when he realized his Dad would NOT REJECT him for being gay. Trust me. Both my parent’s said “Yes we know. We suspected that you might be gay when your were 6 years Old.” It’s like 20,000 tons being lifted off your shoulders
What episode was this ?
This is how things should be talked to to you’re son
You know it would’ve been like woah if mick punched johnny in the face when he said I’m gay
Jonny's so different now
Watching this at the time was the final push that made me come out to my parents… unfortunately they were not nearly as understanding as this but god I wish I was as lucky to receive a reaction like this one. Beautiful scene
the storyline is still on?
😭😭😭😭😭😭
How old is Johnny Carter character here?
ohh
Here come the waterworks.... f**k
what ep?
