New shinny thread here!

OP posts:
The80sweregreat · 16/12/2016 16:51

Didnt see any pop idol or the rivals thing.
I missed a treat it seems.

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 16/12/2016 16:53

My DP says that we've already seen Darius at some point. Not sure if he is right, mind you he is more of an EE fan than me

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 16/12/2016 16:55

The80s youtube Darius Hit me baby one more time. Hilarious.
Mind you, it was the first we had ever seen of those karaoke competitions, so may seem a bit tame by today's auditions

The80sweregreat · 16/12/2016 16:57

Woman, i will.
That song is my guilty pleasure..( brits vetsion )

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 16/12/2016 16:57

Just Googled. We have definitely never seen Darius. Dp is wrong

The80sweregreat · 16/12/2016 16:57

Version even

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 16/12/2016 16:58

It is a bit odd that Darius isn't in the giant photo. The poor lad will probably have issues.

Your dh has amazing EE recall, woman, I come on this thread and struggle to remember what I've just watched. Grin
Any historical EE questions will now be directed his way.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 16/12/2016 17:00

Ah, just seen your husband was wrong about Darius. I'm no longer backing him as our fountain of knowledge.

EnidButton · 16/12/2016 17:01

Darius is really successful now. Starred in award winning West End shows. Think that's his thing now so not sure he'd do Eastenders. Have googled and his Father is Iranian. The Kazemi's father is Asian isn't he? Still, that's never stopped EE before.

MrsJayy · 16/12/2016 17:01

Darius playing Darius i want that on my telly Grin

EnidButton · 16/12/2016 17:02

But yy I'd tune back in then. Grin

MrsJayy · 16/12/2016 17:03

The dad of Ee Darius & Brothers is Iranian they mentioned it see perfect for Darius.

The80sweregreat · 16/12/2016 17:03

Darius will have issues .. Left out of the photos, not seen on the square, never met Shabnam, same name as an old pop idol contestant, two slightly dysfunctional brothers and a bonkers mum. No hope for him.

EnidButton · 16/12/2016 17:05

Oh hang on Iran is in Asia isn't it? Blush

MrsJayy · 16/12/2016 17:06

He was cheesey as cheddar on pop idol a bit cooler on xfactor

EnidButton · 16/12/2016 17:06

MrsJ Oh have they? I couldn't remember. Wiki just says Asian. But I was as talking out of my backside anyway. Blaming brain fog...Blush

MrsJayy · 16/12/2016 17:06

Ssshhh Enid nobody noticed Grin

EnidButton · 16/12/2016 17:09

I could post That photo of Darius to distract everyone but it's almost dinner time so I'll refrain. Grin

The80sweregreat · 16/12/2016 17:13

So this early noughties Darius was on X factor and pop idol?
They liked recycling the acts even then.
Its all rubbish now of course. But i still watch it.
We need some new characters on EE

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 16/12/2016 17:14

ILostit yes, he is losing his touch I think Smile
Yes, Iran is in the Middle East. EE aren't entirely known for casting races accurately, so we could end up with Rik Waller (remember him?) as Darius Kazemi

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 16/12/2016 17:19

I didn't realise Shakil was that little boy from BGT! Shock

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 16/12/2016 17:20

Rik Waller? Please no. I'm hoping Darius will be a bad boy, the black sheep of the family and wreak havoc. We need a good baddie in the square.

MrsJayy · 16/12/2016 17:23

Yes it is him think the actor who is shaki is Welsh so his London accent is good

EnidButton · 16/12/2016 18:31

I don't think the current producer and writers could do a good bad boy. Someone like Michael Moon would be good.

Preferably Michael Moon. They brought Kathy back didn't they?

WomanFromAnotherPlace · 16/12/2016 18:52

LOVED Michael Moon. Evil, Sly and funny. I'd love another character like him.
Is Janine coming back? She'd make a great change from all the squawking we have at the moment (apart from Shirley, Denise, Jane and Dot)
