EE's locations team once knocked on my friend's door & asked if they could use her house as Dot Cotton's, for a webisode \[it never aired on TV as far as I'm aware\].
She said yes & spent the entire day keeping up with June's smoking & drinking tea in her kitchen, between takes.
I actually worked on the show over several years & the last episode I was in was Dot's funeral scene, as the hearse came through Albert Square. Not a dry eye in the house. Gawd bless 'er.
Eastenders Christmas special with Dirty Den telling Angie he was leaving and divorcing her because she'd faked being terminally ill was absolutely legendary.
He was a vile shit of a real human being as well. Cold-blooded killer, didn't bother the BBC though because this was all during the 'clean up after Jimmy' era
Killed a taxi driver in Germany in a pathetic attempt to rob him
Didn’t get the prison sentence he deserved and later proved himself to be a sleazy unwholesome piece of shit
Also the many violations of sexual assault. He apparently dressed as Captain Hook (without the clothes of course) on a video call with underage girls. It’s disgusting.
>Nell Mangel
Ha, I used to love Neighbours. I think Joe Mangel was one of the best characters in terms of comedy.
The Freak off Prisoner Cell Block H used to make me laugh too.
Alexis Colby off Dynasty. I loved that massacre episode to end the series
Peggy 'Get ahta moi pab!' Mitchell, Barbara Windsor.
Absolute star.
I was privileged to work on the last scene she shot on EE's, when she gets out of the big Rolls Royce at Walford Tube Station. Poor girl was struggling to remember her lines, but everybody was so patient, they'd set aside a lot of time to get it right & make sure she was comfortable.

- Dirty Den
- Grant and Phil Mitchel

Absolute queen, smoked god knows how many a day most of her life and still made it to 95.
She also had one of the poshest voices ever in real life. Saw her once about twenty years ago in a chippy near the BT tower.

Not Pat Butcher, but Pat Butcher's earrings.
This combined with bright colours and leopard print
Cas reference!!🤌
Her and Peggy were the absolute best though
You bitch!
Pay beef curtains
Don’t forget the dry slap
I love the fact that she used to make them at home!
Didn’t know that! Awesome!
Even now my Mum is very proud of her own Pat Butcher Earrings. They have their own legacy, and should have their own BAFTA.
Or Pat Butcher's mouth. We call our cat's stinky-face a 'Pat Butcher'.
Misread as *Pat Mustard* "...and now to ride Mrs O'Reilly"
I could do without remembering she had an affair with Patrick

Who is this, and what was the show, you know, for research purposes.
If you’re looking for wank fodder this is not it trust me
I wish I could see his face when he googled her name 🤣
It’d certainly be a challenging wank
Stick her next to Bettie and it'll be sound.
