Oh yes, that's right, Moon. DP read that earlier. I'm getting carried away...

Now they better not kill Tanya off as I would be a proper mess for that. I might even need to take compassionate leave.

Raally???? When's the second one on?

mrsjay · 02/01/2012 19:49

What the fuck do you put in a half-hour tribute to Pat?

Earrings - 2 whole minutes of chasm-yawning dullness.

Frank - 1 minute of his fucking arse and a revolving bow tie, oh ha ha, ha ha ha.

Peggy, David, Simon, Bianca, Janine, Ricky - 1 minute of screaming, shouting and slapping.

THE END

*too Grin need to get into correct grammer mode again!

Christ, where on earth in London would all local business's including the boozer shut coz one of the old prozzies had died? It's ridiculous.

ninah · 02/01/2012 22:04

I didn't think it was all that authentic no doubt they had to tone the deathbed scene
too many chins for terminal pancreatic imo
but yy v watchable

So could Derek be David's dad do we think?? Got the impression he was one of pats 'clients' ..... Might be way off the mark here not sure of the ages ....Blush

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 02/01/2012 22:57

If he was his dad, he'd be Bianca's uncle and her grandfather?! Poor Bianca who already nearly had a relationship with her dad!

Surely he's not old enough anyway?

Thumbinnapuddingwitch · 02/01/2012 23:17

ninah, I don't think that Pat would necessarily have lost weight in time. My mum didn't - she had bowel cancer with an obstruction and she didn't lose much weight, hardly noticeable at all.

I got the general impression that Derek had "known" Pat as well, doubt he was David's dad though, that would be dark!

LineRunner · 03/01/2012 00:03

I thought this on another thread, but then figured that would mean that Derek's son had shagged Derek's sister (and produced the lovely Bianca).

partytearsfew · 03/01/2012 00:03

I got to page 4 then I died of boredom. Slightly interested that Pat is facing death but ....can't ....quite .....be ....bothered...............as I don't really like Eastenders and therefore not seen it for about 12 years!
I have skipped to the end to post this flippant comment so sorry if she didn't make a miraculous recovery and people are upset.....

Thumbinnapuddingwitch · 03/01/2012 00:06

party - she died. Which is what you'd expect under the circs.

partytearsfew · 03/01/2012 00:07

ps don't worry there'll be new characters soon to get into and you will forget all about it (hence not like real life!!) XX

bigdog · 03/01/2012 08:13

Unfortunately it's not quite "not like real life" for me - my dad has terminal pancreatic cancer at the moment...yeah, watching Eastenders was a right barrel of laughs for me :(

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 03/01/2012 14:04

That's hard bigdog :(

Mum2Luke · 03/01/2012 14:10

It was sad but good acting, Pam St Clement was on This Morning saying she didn't want to be killed off when she first told bosses and it was strange seeing her after that episode.

We'll miss you Pat and those earrings!

Thumbinnapuddingwitch · 03/01/2012 14:27

sorry to hear that, bigdog. :(

katkitya · 03/01/2012 20:00

Right, I've been well and truelly drawn back in. What was that confession to tonight?

partytearsfew · 04/01/2012 00:58

Oh so sorry, shouldn't have commented without fully reading thread. Of course - if it helps to watch this when facing something similar then that makes it different altogether.
Best wishes for this difficult time. Blush

Moominsarescary · 04/01/2012 14:17

I love eastenders but didnt watch from the time ronnies baby died and she stole baby tommy until the day she gave him back,

I was pregnant at the time with a tommy though so was abit hormonal
