So... The Knights are coming! How do you feel about the upcoming arrival of EastEnders' newest family? I for one am very excited and can't wait to meet them.
This is so cool! So The Husband and Daughters are Linda's Stepfather and Stepsisters? Could someone please tell me about the other actresses. Also it would be cool to see a new family running the Vic. Can you imagine Elaine and Alfie butting heads. I live in Canada so I don't know about their history the way you do. also in america, they bring in one person and if they click then they bring in a family. Terry Lester debuted as Jack Abbott #1 on Y & R in 1981 then in 1983 his family came to Genoa City. Robert Newman debuted in 1981 as Josh Lewis that same year and in 1983 The Lewises came on the scene. You may also remember Robert as Ashland #1 on Y & R as well.
Great video. One hell of a take and interesting theories. Would be fun to see your takes and theories on a whole lot more news. Great to have another person in the space who truly dives down these theories and airs some exciting speculation. Looking forward to the new videos Thanks -Ash from Watching Walford
Thanks so much! Great to connect! Will definitely dive into some of your videos. I'm just uploading a new video now about what really happened to Mick on Christmas Day 👀
@@TalkingWalford Definitely given me some food for thought and some renewed inspiration to make some video essays of my own. Best have to turn those notifications on!
I like this family already! I think they are going to bring some interesting stuff to the eastenders table, as it were! Great video! Thank you, from Tyne @ Wear! xxxxx
Ahh, thank you for the kind comment... and welcome to the channel! I hope you enjoy my other videos too. It's always great to hear from more viewers as my channel starts to slowly grow. I'm hoping to build a bit of a community that are interested in really digging beneath the surface of EastEnders.
Absolutely. I thought that too. Here's hoping Harriet's Elaine is the equivalent of Barbara's Peggy. I think, based on first impressions this week, she could well be... albeit during a very different era of the show. No landlady will ever reach the icon status Peggy did but I think Elaine could definitely make her mark. How did you find her debut, Jay?
@@TalkingWalford very ott but I guess she has to make a big entrance to make an impact and to kickstart a whole new era, my favourite landladies are still Angie and Peggy, they’re the most iconic, Angie because she was the first and her era was so short it left us wanting more and Peggy because she came into it years after Angie so there were naturally expectations but she completely made her tenure her own.
Me too! I'm so excited for what might be ahead for this unit. It'll almost certainly tie into the flashforward episode too, so I think there's a lot of good drama to come.
Harriet Thorp is a fabulous actress with a great pedegree, mostly in comedy which bodes well for her moving forward in a Peggyish style now she needs a decent foil like a Pat Butcher to bounce of to make the most of her comedic timing , she will also be fantastic at the drama.
the green arrow's stepdad lives in albert square now? imagine oliver queen turning up there threatening phil mitchell with a bow saying "philip mitchell you have failed this town" lol
I think we haven’t taken well to them because it is a recast Elaine who was an established character over the years, I think that is the main problem because even in the pictures Elaine and Linda don’t seem like the mother and daughter duo that they once were. However I am prepared to give them a chance. Feel like Elaine is very Peggy and angie esque. George could be very Archie/Den esque. And the girls we hope are the new Ronnie and Roxy.
I do agree that the physical likeness between Maria Friedman and Harriet Thorpe isn't there but I'm really excited to have Elaine back. I think the show has really been lacking a classic older, matriarchal figure and Elaine could very well be that. Let's wait and see :)
@@Joey15811 I wouldn't personally say she was loathsome... but perhaps a bit one note, admittedly! I'm hoping Harriet can bring a bit more nuance and dynamism to the role, which I'm thinking she will.
@@TalkingWalford The OTT actress didn't help and from what I hear, the new one is the same. If Elaine is staying for longer than 3 months she seriously needs to be toned down.
I am confused what is happening is Linda a kinghts her real name . Is that why Linda is still keeping the Vick . With her family. The young lady's are really beautiful and really fit x ❤️. can't wait to see them all on TV with a big way. They are coming in
I am soooo gutted they’re here. Mainly because the girl isn’t even an actor so what’s the point and they recast Linda’s Mom 🤦🏻♂️ Maria Friedman was one of the best characters they had in years, the chemistry between her and the rest of the family. It was the peak Carters dynasty, where every character was loveable and brilliantly written. Johnny, Lee, Nancy, Linda, Mick, Shirley, Elaine. The new Elaine just seems like such a cheap replacement. No magic around her
I just noticed something that when sharon says he's dead, linda isnt in that scene. there will be a lot of disappointed people who want Nish out of the show who will be annoyed that he wont be gone at christmas
Eastenders needs a new gangster in the mould of Den Watts. Phil is old now they need a young version. Nigel Harman as Dennis would’ve been perfect to take over from Phil. Who knows maybe he’ll come back from the dead one day. His character was superb. It just feels like the whole Mitchell stories have gone boring now. They need a new gangster family but a young family.
Highly unlikely Dennis can return seeing as his demise was shown in scree. As for Phil being old he physically dosnt look over the hill and still has the aura he had they need to revive him and show more of ibis aggression against these younger gangsters. Phil has to be too dog until he quits
I think Anna will end up becoming the new cindy and there will be a love triangle between Bobby and Freddie, Anna will get pregnant and she will pretend Bobby is the father so it doesn’t ruin her relationship and so Freddie/Bobby friendship remains intact - I think Gina will die of a drugs overdose and the baby will be called Gina eventually Bobby will find out and attack Freddie potentially seriously and Anna will play the two boys along for a number of years
So... The Knights are coming! How do you feel about the upcoming arrival of EastEnders' newest family? I for one am very excited and can't wait to meet them.

I wondered why I’ve never seen your content before and you’re a new channel. Love your work and I listened to this whilst cleaning out my quail

The recast of Elaine seems very similar to the recast of Peggy, both became landlady’s of the Vic

I was thinking the exact same thing!!
Hope the new cast have some interesting storylines

I have to say I think she fits the show like a glove! What an entrance!
I think the Knights will be great looking forward to watching them pull the pints😅
I like your theories
Thanks for the comment, Georgia!

And Elaine was a loathesome character many didnt want to see again

The oringal Elaine and linda could definitely pass off physically as mum & daughter. I think I'm interested what this Elaine gonna be like
I’m not vibing with this but il have to watch and see x
Yes, time will tell... I'm already hooked (personally) but I know it always takes some time for the wider audience to accept a new unit on the show.
james bond's mate from the brosnan movies has moved to the albert square?

Harriet Thorpe played Carole the receptionist in the Brittas Empire
Wow.
Thanks for the comment!

Linda is in the scene she's by the bar
Linda is seen walking out of the kitchen at the beginning of the flash forward. I don't think Nish will be around by Christmas personally!
LInda is in the scene, she's near the bar.
@Talking Walford I do hope he goes before Xmas. Can't stand him at all. Go Suki & Eve, get rid of him.
I rewatched it and you were right
Wherever Audrey Chawner is, sure she's watching Eastenders religiously.
I have a feeling that George's girls haven't lost their mum at all. A great plot twist would be that Elaine is actually the mother of his children.
More box ticking
THANK YOU GO WOKE GO BROKE EASTENDERS
Eastenders needs a new gangster in the mould of Den Watts.
Phil is old now they need a young version.
Nigel Harman as Dennis would’ve been perfect to take over from Phil.
Who knows maybe he’ll come back from the dead one day. His character was superb.
It just feels like the whole Mitchell stories have gone boring now.
They need a new gangster family but a young family.
I certainly have my suspicions about George. I think he could well end up being Ravi's "Christos" contact 👀
Highly unlikely Dennis can return seeing as his demise was shown in scree. As for Phil being old he physically dosnt look over the hill and still has the aura he had they need to revive him and show more of ibis aggression against these younger gangsters. Phil has to be too dog until he quits
@@TalkingWalford imgent Phil Mitchell vs Christos that would be great fight
OMG I FEEL LIKE ELAINE AND GEORGE IS GOING TO GET A DIVORCE
EastEnders next week Monday Thursday Wednesday Tuesday Friday Saturday Sunday week Monday Thursday Wednesday Tuesday Friday Saturday Sunday week kend Monday Thursday Wednesday Tuesday Friday Saturday Sunday
Other person who played Linda’s Mum was better
I think Anna will end up becoming the new cindy and there will be a love triangle between Bobby and Freddie, Anna will get pregnant and she will pretend Bobby is the father so it doesn’t ruin her relationship and so Freddie/Bobby friendship remains intact - I think Gina will die of a drugs overdose and the baby will be called Gina eventually Bobby will find out and attack Freddie potentially seriously and Anna will play the two boys along for a number of years
They dont have the ex factor them girls are tryna give a ronnie and roxxie vibe aint working bro 🤦🏾🤣
Harriet thorpe is a rubbish replacement she plays elaine as if she's playing peggy mitchell. Linda needed family 5 months ago .
Im telling you george will be the dead body dont @ me
You could well be right...
I think Ravi dies at christmas
