eastenders - whitney's mum

that was just weird - the woman who played whitney's mum is the same woman who played Tracey Beaker's mum - she looks exactly the same, dresses the same, speaks the same. Very odd the BBC decided to cast her in the same role - someone who abandoned their daughter!

i know, she is a famous hollywood actress, according to tracey beaker

but why isnt bianca her mum?

SlartyBartFast · 05/01/2009 21:43

hmm, no response... no one else know then i take it

nancy75 · 05/01/2009 21:44

what do you mean, why isnt bianca her mum?

Ivykaty44 · 05/01/2009 21:45

Bianca isn't Whitneys mum - she was the step mum and the real father has gone (but I dont know if dead or just gone)

AnyFuckerForAMincePie · 05/01/2009 21:45

bianca was her step-mum and Whitneys dad is no longer around (don't know why)

nancy75 · 05/01/2009 21:45

bianca was with whitneys dad after the mum had left, i think the little girl (tiffany?) also belongs to that dad and he died in a car crash (i really need to go out more)

AnyFuckerForAMincePie · 05/01/2009 21:45

snap !

backalleysally · 05/01/2009 21:45

Where is Whitney's dad?

LiffeyAnnaLivia · 05/01/2009 21:46

somebody gemmell. she was in fever pitch too.

Tiff's her step mum. Her dad's in the slammer.

EyeballsintheSky · 05/01/2009 21:46

Who is Tracey Beaker?

AnyFuckerForAMincePie · 05/01/2009 21:47

I shed a few tears at the end of tonights episode

LiffeyAnnaLivia · 05/01/2009 21:47

Oh? I assumed the slammer. Sorry. False Memory syndrome.

SlartyBartFast · 05/01/2009 21:48

ha ha to eyeballs

nancy75 · 05/01/2009 21:48

no tony was the dad in prison,

SlartyBartFast · 05/01/2009 21:48

they really let those characters have all that they can throw at them don't they!?

jetgirl · 05/01/2009 21:49

The dad's definitely dead, it was Tony who was in prison for defending Whitney.

backalleysally · 05/01/2009 21:50

What about Morgan then? Who's his dad?

SlartyBartFast · 05/01/2009 21:50

gawd how do you all know so much

LiffeyAnnaLivia · 05/01/2009 21:50

Why would tania cover up for Lauren? I mean, Lauren won't go to jail. Even if she did try to run over Max, who isn't dead, blast, missed, so it'd only be attempted manslaughter and as she's about 14,,,,,,,, it wouldn't be as bad for the family as a whole as their MOTHER being in jail...

tis only tv tis only tv tis only tv

nancy75 · 05/01/2009 21:51

they call tony morgans dad, even though she was pregnant when she met tony, so nobody knows who jis dad is.

backalleysally · 05/01/2009 21:53

Do you remember Bianca's mum Carol?

Mmmm like mother like daughter me thinks....

Ivykaty44 · 05/01/2009 21:54

that was why ricky thought that when tony got out of prison - tony was gona be black, as the child is of mixed race and so ricky was shocked when tony was white.

nancy75 · 05/01/2009 21:54

its funny but when carol was in it they never mentioned this massive family she had, so far jack, max and susie i wonder how many more there are!

backalleysally · 05/01/2009 22:00

I remember years ago when Bianca found out that her dad was David Wicks. He said that he hadnt stayed around because Carol's brothers had beaten him up when they had found out she was pregnant. Those brothers were Max and Jack!!

i find the tanya storyline a bit ridiculous tbh. Her covering for Lauren has surely made the situation worse for the whole family - especially her poor neglected baby! I'm sure Lauren could have got away with saying it was accidental and both Tanya and Max would have covered for her
