Shiiit I never even knew the brannings have been in it that long! 😂 I was 5 years old when derek and David feud was around! I’m now 32! No wonder I barely knew about the feud! 🥴 Rewatching 2012 episodes,I feel like I need to back to when Eastenders first started xx
I disagree, I thought the 1990's Derek actor was more suited to the role of Carol's brother than Jamie Foreman. He might not be as vocally intimidating, but he still has a more fitting physical presence and acted more slick. Foreman just seemed like your average gangster, not a Branning brother.
I've seen this Derek Branning on telly recently playing a character with similar mannerisms to the 2012 Derek. Would have been interesting to see him brought back.
aww David seemed a bit gutted to find out Carol had gotten married - his face, after her comments near the end of the clip. Interesting given in 2013, he's saying he's always been in love with her.
i remember this i was 10 years old staying at my grandparents my dad was on night shifts and mum in hospital cant remember why she was there though it was nothing serious but she did have to stay for a few nights
This dereck is not very threatening or scary at all compared to Jacob foreman. I have to admit I was unaware that dereck branning had made an appearance in Eastenders in the nineties.
She was never a Wicks (came close). She was Branning but changed it and her old three kids names to Jackson as it'd be easier and Alan was the only one of the dads that stuck around.
2:55 What's the big deal???? It was a suckerpunch, rather than an actual fight!!!!! Alan should've had his hands up, and been ready though, I think!!!!!!!
Alan was a big guy but he wasn’t a fighter and about that life. A lot of people mistake size with fighting ability although size obviously matters and Alan could’ve handled Derek if he was ready.
This actor is more believable as Derek Branning than Jamie Foreman ever was. He's more similar in looks to Carol, Max and Jack Branning. Plus, I always thought that Foreman was a bad choice because he acted like he was in a gangster movie. Way too angry and forceful. 90's Derek was more slick and subtle, the best version
Derek Branning (Jamie Foreman) was a fake. He was more like an Only Fools and Horses villain who liked to intimidate his own sister, someone who never matured after he got out of high school
Derek is one of Carol's brothers who scared David away from dating Carol back when they were at school. That's why David never knew about Bianca until years later
Derek had never wanted Carol to be happy he seems to hate every man she dates I for one am glad they killed Derek off last year also there news yesterday (8th may 2013) that David Wicks is returning to eastenders though eastenders bosses haven't confirmed it
He was Played By an Different actor,Terrence Beesley in 1996-1999 Now he is played by a shorter actor who is Jamie Foreman who is set to leave during the Christmas time he is probably going to be killed off or departs from the back of an taxi.
Derek version 1 played by Terence Beesley. Essentially the same character who hates David's guts but when he came back they toned down the racist aspect of his personality.
Hang on so we are meant to believe derek branning got slapped about by David wicks of all people then came back later as some sort of big time gangster who David wicks himself was now scared shitless of and who used to beat people up
@captainhero518. I agree he beat up a few people like tyler,michael,aj and the coach off-screen. A good actor but overrated in fighting he more of a wheeler dealer and a criminal. Just about won masood,got knock down by phil and got beat up by david twice and got hit by joey. He threathen a few people like the baliffs,the man who was playing the music in the van not long after pat died but also a woman bully. A good actor but like phil is old now and gone past his prime

jamie foreman brought the charactor to life
Getting Derek recast was a masterstroke - cos this guy is very forgettable! I didn't even know Derek was in Eastenders 20yrs ago!
James Donnelly I remember this very well

@@iluvlaffertyno
This version of Derek Branning looks a bit like Pete Sampras
I was 1 month old when this came out
With the actor change came a complete character change by the look of it. 2012 Derek would never have been scared off by David Wicks.
Divorce and Prison forged 2011-12 Derek.
I was 1 years old when this came out lol
Same here I was born 1995
My god David look perfect.
i agree ;)
Jemima Solley :D
It seems derek payed off for his hair-transplant during his 2012 appearance LMFAO
OMG that is verrrrrrrrrrry old Derek I remember when my mum in 2000 saying that it's old
2012 Derek must have had a hair transplant cos the 90s Derek was a bit bald
Jamie Ellice different actors

Becca McGuinness But it never works out anytime those are near each other, it's like Frank and Pat before they died!
i remember this i was 10 years old staying at my grandparents my dad was on night shifts and mum in hospital cant remember why she was there though it was nothing serious but she did have to stay for a few nights
he has, he said in an interview that you couldn't meet someone more different than their character
This dereck is not very threatening or scary at all compared to Jacob foreman. I have to admit I was unaware that dereck branning had made an appearance in Eastenders in the nineties.
Derek hadn't changed one bit.
If Dave is aware that Derek is now dead, he'll be thinking "Good riddance."
Was Carol’s surname Branning before she became a Wicks?
She was never a Wicks (came close). She was Branning but changed it and her old three kids names to Jackson as it'd be easier and Alan was the only one of the dads that stuck around.
Aired 2nd April 1996
@Danny Moon whos the coach and when did he threaten the ballifs
derek must have got hair plugs
Is it same person derek or different person??
younger derek looks more like jack and max then he does now oh and rip derek branning
Do you have the rest of this episode anywhere?
Why is this in my recommended? Lol. Was Max ever mentioned prior to him arriving in 2006?
David once made a reference to Carol's brothers, but no names were mentioned.
Just found out that in 2017, Terence Beesley, who played Derek here, died of carbon monoxide poisoning
2:55 What's the big deal???? It was a suckerpunch, rather than an actual fight!!!!! Alan should've had his hands up, and been ready though, I think!!!!!!!
He just didn't want to fight Derek.
@@Hulk2k6 He should've had his hands up, ready to defend himself, though.
Alan was a big guy but he wasn’t a fighter and about that life. A lot of people mistake size with fighting ability although size obviously matters and Alan could’ve handled Derek if he was ready.
what about dot
Yeah, "Hey Lover!.

Except Foreman was way more entertaining and charismatic than this guy
@@fastvalkary725 Charismatic? He acted psychotic.
@@iluvlafferty what a psycho path can't be charismatic?
Carol was lovely
U call this a Derek Branning?? HA!?!?! The new Derek NEVER backs down
Course he doesn't 😂 that why he was shitting himself vs Phil Mitchell
he wasnt hard he was just bit of a del boy/conman and a bully and he hired people to do his dirty work he wouldnt of stood a chance against phil
Derek Branning (Jamie Foreman) was a fake. He was more like an Only Fools and Horses villain who liked to intimidate his own sister, someone who never matured after he got out of high school
@@jonathancollins1075when did he 'shit' himself against Phil?
I KNOW!!!
Derek looks way different
Ok thanks. :)
I can hear LL Cool J at the end.
because he got derek's sister pregent
Is this why Derek went after David when he returned for Pat's death?
Derek is one of Carol's brothers who scared David away from dating Carol back when they were at school. That's why David never knew about Bianca until years later
Same old Derek, Just different faces!
I wonder if Jamie has ever met Terrence?
Derek had never wanted Carol to be happy he seems to hate every man she dates I for one am glad they killed Derek off last year also there news yesterday (8th may 2013) that David Wicks is returning to eastenders though eastenders bosses haven't confirmed it

Surprised Derek managed to floor big Al!!!!
Yeah same here, Alan should have killed him I thought.
Big Alan had battered david previously. Underrated hardman
Oh my bad
I'M DEREK BRANNING!!!
That's what happens with recasts.
Michael Fuzzey, obviously it was the original actor, ducky. Not rocket science, is it.
Derek version 1 played by Terence Beesley. Essentially the same character who hates David's guts but when he came back they toned down the racist aspect of his personality.
David vs Derek
Hang on so we are meant to believe derek branning got slapped about by David wicks of all people then came back later as some sort of big time gangster who David wicks himself was now scared shitless of and who used to beat people up
Derek Branning really let himself go... ;)
Different person
same person but played by a different actor now
OMG, Derek looks so like not scary back then !!
well its a diferent person playing him lol
@captainhero518. I agree he beat up a few people like tyler,michael,aj and the coach off-screen. A good actor but overrated in fighting he more of a wheeler dealer and a criminal.

Carol was a nice looking girl.
Have you ever heard of a new actor???
Alan was a big wimp
L like the new Derek bitter
