[The Large One]

Leslie Grantham dies aged 71.

 

[ROSM]

Is he really dead or will he come back in 10 years?

 

[Beach Hut]

Saw he was ill

RIP DD

Now that makes me stop and think!

Wow. No one lives forever, but I never saw him as that much older than me, and in this day and age, not particularly ancient.

RIP sir, and thanks for when EastEnders was watchable.

Murderer.

"Blood. I've got blood on my bleedin' shirt"

Great actor. RIP Dirty Den.

I liked the episode where he sucked his finger on a webcam

 

[The Clamp]

I thought he died years ago? Anyway, nasty piece of work, glad he's dead.

 

[luppers]

Good riddance.

Murderer.

Bet the family of the taxi driver he murdered in Germany feel better now, how on earth can anybody call a murderer sir ?

 

[The Fifth Column]

It should read: Convicted murderer Leslie Grantham dies aged 71. No great loss.

Thought it was manslaughter

Thought it was manslaughter

Convicted of murder. Shot a taxi driver in a "bungled robbery". Claimed he didn't know the gun was loaded I think

Can't imagine anybody would get a lead role in EastEnders now in the same circumstances: social media would put a stop to that long before cameras rolled.

Thought it was manslaughter

No, served ten years for Murder.

At least Ange will have an 'appy Christmas now.

At least Ange will have an 'appy Christmas now.

An ‘appy Christmas? On an Eastenders thread?

Do behave Edna!

You really do scrape the barrel at times.

You really do scrape the barrel at times.

You take yourself far too seriously. Chill.

NB The fact that among all the other posts similar to mine, you only pick mine out highlights your foul agenda.

But anyway, a murderer has died today, let us not turn this thread into a binfest.

It’s an interesting one this because he was a murderer, did his time and made the best of his life afterwards, including showing a lot of remorse and regret his flawed nature. I say RIP Leslie, a fine actor that gripped the nation in a way millennials just won’t understand. Besides we all loved Red at the end of Shawshank
