Eastenders: Save Minty Campaign

17 replies

Coolfonz · 17/04/2010 17:27

Am I the only person who thinks Minty from Eastenders should not be axed? Upon hearing the news I had to have a sit down for almost 30 seconds followed by several pints of beer and a few spliffs to overcome the shock.

Minty is rugged, cuddly, has a herb-based name and looks a bit like an old dog chewing a stick. It is widely recognised in my house that we desperately need more dog-alike characters in soap operas.

So, I hope my campaign to save him will strike a chord at Mumsnet:Telly Addicts and we will save his character.

Who is with me? Huzzah for Minty!

Glad his silly bint of a GF went, though.....Minty was once Phil's best mate....lots of scope to keep him......

mrstimlovejoy · 17/04/2010 22:02

max should shuffle his way out can't stand him the way he walks winds me up also ronnie same miserable expression in every episode
now minty he must stay

Monadami · 18/04/2010 01:40

I'm not too fussed about Minty going, he isn't the same without Gow (Gary)

I would like Ronnie and Jack to get together permanantly and ride off on he Motorbike into the sunset.

Peggy to meet a nice genuine man, perhaps Martin Jarvis's character

I can't stand Roxy and would like her to be scammed out of her inherited £3 Million estate. How mean of her not to share it with her sister and not give Peggy the pub.

Roll on Chelsea going and hopefully wooden Becca and shuffling Max too.

LynetteScavo · 18/04/2010 23:33

Is Martin Jarvis old enough for Peggy? He wasn't the last time I looked, but I think he was reading Jackanory then!

Monadami · 19/04/2010 02:13

I think Martin Jarvis is about 69 and Babs about 73, but I expect his character is supposed to be a bit younger, seeing as he's still working at the Gazette. I think it's really funny Peggy and Pat both think they're in with a chance.

Coolfonz · 20/04/2010 22:43

I think we need to up our Minty-savingness.
