I know right, I watched this episode leading up to the 35th anniversary and I was still on the edge of my seat, then I watched the boat sinking episode and it was crap.
Absolutely mate the script writing these days is absolutely crap, thats why the programme is rubbish now because its only as good as its written, the same with movies if the scripts crap you can bet your last pound the film will be.
@@RandomUploads-ch3bh The actress lives near me in Romford,East London. I've seen her around a few times with her kids[I assume they are her kids] in the local shops. I've seen her in the local papers before promoting plays she was acting in at the Hornchurch theater. She still has the same curly hair.
This scene is almost a quarter of a century old! When watching this as it was broadcast, the same time back was the time of Den and Angie and the first coupl of years this soap was broadcast.
You can see Phil is not looking at Frank, Phil is seeing his own father here. His dad run out on Peggy Grant and him. But Phil and Grant had respect for Frank and Pat.
Until this change of circumstance' then Frank was given the boot and never welcome in Albert Square again ' although Peggy forgave Pat eventually ' but there again she didn't instigate the affair like Frank did ' she ought to have had more common sense than to fall for her ex again ' it would have saved a whole lot of bother and stress for everyone concerned.
When my son was about 11 years old he entered a Jaycee Relay Race. He’d never ran track before and didn’t know everybody wore shorts. He came in jeans, to everyone’s amusement. He ran the last leg for his team - and came away the fastest runner of the day, and made up considerable distance to win. This video made me think of that day. How I wish I had been able to see it, instead of only hear and read about it. I was a single mom and had to work. My son was an amazing athlete. ❤️
Giles Scanlon you know what I mean though plus this would have been filmed 6 weeks before transmission so it wasn't even shot in November therefore even you are incorrect
Thomas Hunnam Yes but its irritating when people round up dates all the time. Something that was for example in 2012, some people say 10 years ago. Doing that is the mark of an unintelligent person. If it was filmed October/November 2000 and we’re in June 2020, then you say 19 and a half years ago.
@@accountuser5588 if it was broadcast 2 November 2000, it was more likely filmed on early September 2000 as I heard it was filmed 8 weeks ahead by an actress on an interview[the one that played Martins's stalker]. Either way you are nitpicking and being irritating here by pointing this out-it's 20 years ago, need anybody care if it was 19 years and 9 months-like seriously. There's a big difference between rounding 2012 as ten years and the op's example.
well he was 20 years younger than Frank so hardly fair now or any achievement, Reid was 60 here, Phil was around 40. Majority of men of 40 could dominate a man 20 years their senior in a fight.
God bless Mike Reid and Babs. Frank Butcher and Peggy Mitchell are 2 of the greatest characters in Enders history. Pat too, to be fair. But Phil Mitchell....he's my #1 These were the golden days of the soap for me. I haven't watched it in years but the memories live on.
Mike Reid was a totally different character in real life apparently ' I seen him been interviewed on Good Morning and various other programes ' he came across as a kind devoted man ' think he also had a brief singing stint once too ' had a song in the charts.
he was too old to hit by this stage, Phil went for him outside the Vic in 96 but Grant stopped him. They had an altercation once when Frank stopped Phil attacking Ricky shortly after the Mitchells arrived in the Square.
@@mm91ie Yea Reid was 60 here but being a heavy smoker he looked ten years older- wouldn't really have being fair for Phil a much fitter younger man to be hitting him. Although having said that it never stopped him knocking Peggy around, punching Sharon and Lisa or attacking Kathy by throwing a bottle at her and attacking Ben as a child so nothing would surprise me.
@@shanefolan Reid had a huge frame being about 6ft tall and of heavy build. He was in a state of physical decline in his stint from the late 90s compared to his first stint. He was saggy and out of shape by the time this scene was aired.
Wonder if danny dyer was just trolling when he said he was a better actor than Steve? Phil Mitchell has done years of amazing tv, no doubt the actor could have done movie roles justice, as good as Bob Hoskins.
not necessarily no, somebody playing 1 character well doesn't make a good actor who could branch out-versatility is what matters more. Just because Meg Ryan played well in similar roles in rom coms well doesn't make her a good actress, if she had to do Kate Winslet/Meryl Streep type roles she wouldn't be taken seriously or seen as credible. Don't get me wrong;McFadden plays him brilliantly but that doesn't mean he'd carry movie roles well or be capable of branching into other tv big roles. If he left Eastenders, the big chances are that neither film or tv casting directors would go near him. Plus 'years of amazing tv' is somewhat inaccurate, he did years of an amazing role in 1 show but 'years of amazing tv' would be more appropriate for versatile actors who branched out across tv in acclaimed various roles like Suranne Jones, Sarah Lanchashire or Damian Lewis etc.
Eastenders is nothing like what it was in the 90's and early 2000's, which is why I don't bother with it anymore. The strong adult characters are really lacking today.
Because there had actual respect for frank. Phil and Grant always had respect for Frank and Pat! even though there had there differences. There were like family to them aunt Pat and Frank was like father figure.
Stopped watching this show about 2011 I think, I am sure they just dropped like 7 new characters in one episode at the market that were all cliche and I checked out.

Alan Jackson had a pretty manly voice.
And friendly too lol

Mike Reid - such a legend. Loved him as Frank, always made me laugh.

Some lol
British Arts royalty. His on camera energy and dedication is unmatched
Lisa was beautiful.
She was really good looking here 😍
Hamza Khaliq : Yeh she was on point in these days 💯
Funnily enough I was talking to someone about this yesterday. She was really attractive before Phil completely destroyed her mentally
She was, but her character became pathetic and irritating, so it detracted from her looks tremendously.
But yeah, early days Lisa was smoking.

Awkward that Peggy's husband was having an affair with her dear friend, but Phil had an affair with his brother's wife. How hard that was for Grant.
That's soapland for you ' full of morons who can't settle down and be thankful for what they'v got ' like wild dogs when they don't get there way.

In the thumbnail Phil looks like he's laughing his head off with Mike read telling him some funny jokes
One of my favourite episodes
Thanks been looking for this for ages😊
Frank’s plot armour against the Mitchell’s would have supplied a whole medieval army
Honestly. Phil and Grant would've hit anyone else for less.
Best content and page on youtube no bullshit or adverts just great content
I’ve had the new omicron variant and the resulting croaky voice to be able to speak like Frank, grateful for small mercies and all that
I've got a deep, gruff voice anyway and I do a Frank Butcher impression
That voice 🤣
Did he gargle with rocks?

When EastEnders was interesting, dire recently but mind you the Jean and Phil scene was quite amusing haha
It was bloody hilarious...
Not as good as these days back in 2000 - 2010 . Bring back the good characters like dan Sullivan, grant Mitchell, johnny allen, Steve owen,
sean porter how when two are those are dead

@@MosesDeLaRoses you rightists love bringing politics into everything, this is bloody eastenders, the only political thing in eastenders is ian beale!
Eastenders is garbage nowadays. It was heavy back in the day worth the tv licence fee in the 90’s
meh said about every soap clip over 2 years ago.
Lisa got the full brunt of the Mitchell treatment
any woman who married into them or dated them usually did-explains why they all left.
And Lisa then got her own back on Phil...by shooting him.
2:05 - frank shouting: YES! Looooooooool
Wasn't Lucy Benjamin fit in those days.
Cranberry juice here 🤣🤣🤣🤣
BIG PORK PIE
Deep down Phil respected Frank
I think so too.
They way he shouted “Then ‘ow did you know what was in it if you hadn’t read it?” 😂😂😂
Great great actors
Frank doesn't want to take responsibility. He abandoned Janine yet again
“Hope you all enjoyed the fireworks … goodnight 😢”
Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat.
Frank told a pork pie say ing that Janine was going to Manchester with him to cover up his tracks.
Loved frank ❤❤
Back when Phil was still in his prime years he would have ate Frank like he was nothing
well he was 20 years younger than Frank so hardly fair now or any achievement, Reid was 60 here, Phil was around 40. Majority of men of 40 could dominate a man 20 years their senior in a fight.
Phil for me is the face of eastenders and these were the years of him in his prime also loved mike reid brilliant actor
Phil would knock him out easily
Shane Folan: now Phil is franks age
Hiya, could you possibly upload some Shabnam and kush scenes? They were my favourite!

Course you can. Wait until you're asleep before you start dreaming.
Why does phil still look the same 20 years later ffs is he human lol the man is unstoppable 💪
We must be watching a very different show then pal. Because the Phil of 2020 has turkey neck and shoulders like A4 paper.

Trying to make out some of the books on Phil & Lisa's bookshelf.
One book says last magic
Phil and Grant both had numerous confrontations with Frank, but not once did they ever punch him or beat him up.
Phil came close a few times ' espc in this episode ' he's lucky Grant had left by this time or I doubt if he would have got off so lucky.
Always start bringing up how much of a love cheat the other person is when you’re trying to get them on side, it’s a great strategy.
God bless Mike Reid and Babs. Frank Butcher and Peggy Mitchell are 2 of the greatest characters in Enders history.
Pat too, to be fair.
