"Ben's gonna be different to you two, he's gonna be respectable" No luck there.

[@kevinprior3549]

Day we said goodbye to a legend. RIP Arthur

[@JoeScaramanga]

That's my late Uncle Bert shouting for the ambulance. He'd been an extra for years and started occasionally getting lines around the allotment. He hangs around the Nags Head in loads of Only Fooks and Horses too.

"Ben's going to be different to you two." Well that's one way of putting it.

[@thomasgallagher6202]

Rob Innes you got that right

[@maimadha]

Thomas Gallagher you are awesome

[@rorymckernan8502]

When Arthur collapsed, he made the same noise he did, when he trashed his living room.

[@jhibberd6290]

That's exactly what I thought. No Christmas trees on the allotment though

[@MrBooBeeDoo]

The actor has died in real life today, aged 92. RIP.

[@My19812011]

Always found it odd that Peggy would bang on about “us Mitchell’s” when she was married into the family rather than an actual Mitchell

[@shanefolan]

not really no;women would typically take on the family they marry into and become the matriarch of such. When she says us Mitchells she refers to herself and her kids and her ex husband.

[@essexbred1986]

Trivia fact: Arthur's collapse was referenced in a BT commercial back in 1997. I remember vividly that Bill Treacher(Arthur) and various former Eastender actors each receiving a phone call from Letitia Dean(Sharon Watts), and when it came to Treacher he is seen working on an allotment answering his mobile phone to Dean mildly joking "I tell you, this digging lark is gonna do me in!"

[@freddiemanuel6155]

I'd love to see that commercial.

[@julianaylor4351]

He played a BT telephone engineer in an episode of The Professionals.

[@richmeisterg]

Another great episode of EastEnders. Poor Arthur and poor Pauline (she had everything in life thrown at her). RIP Arthur and Pauline!!!

[@shanefolan]

yea pauline started off as merry and happy but the years of hardship had taken its toll and in her last 7 or 8 years or so she became increasingly cold and bitter.

[@sezzieyoutuberperson6050]

They were SOOOO wrong about Ben...

[@olivergrumitt2601]

Poor Arthur, he had always been dogged by bad luck and it followed him right to the end. At least though, Arthur died on the allotment that he had loved so much rather than in prison. Rest In Peace to Bill Treacher, the actor who played him.

[@ForestKicks]

That hit from Pauline's frying pan finally took its toll...

[@TheKonga88]

Bend Sinister 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

Ya, Arthur almost took as many hits to the head as Rocky!!!!!!

[@abbieoverton3024]

I think that frying pan Hit probably gave him a Brain Haemorrhage

[@dominewimbury2039]

No it weren't! He got attacked in prison

[@JamesSmith-qy3eu]

[@davehisscoje5990]

RIP in the real now Bill. Lovable and fine actor.

[@rileysutton633]

Ben Mitchell was christened as a baby in '96. He looks about 19 or 20 now and has glasses.

[@linagg2806]

Loool cindy the old slapper

[@richmeisterg]

I don't think that the two songs played are a mere coincidence: No More I Love You's and Misunderstood Man.

[@MissManxy]

No she didn't! Arthur was assaulted in prison just before his release. He went to prison for stealing money from a community fund.

[@Kelly-just-kelly]

nobody has a washing machine either lol

[@gamingfreak5913]

[@vithalpsr7982]

I miss arrhur

[@pluto1111777]

actually she first appeared in 1991 played by another actress but was reintroduced in 1994 played by Barbara windsor

[@rocksoliddude1]

arthur had such a quick,painless death and he lived until he was old,how is that a tear jerker?

[@LPCLASSICAL]

He was born in 1943 died in the 90s so was less than 60 when he died. So he wasn't exactly old.

[@arianaajbeaverhausen8175]

Some people find the death of a character they have enjoyed watching for years sad without the need for violence and/or youth. Weird huh?

[@neptunestardust]

He was a very lovable character and many people enjoyed him and Pauline The original Beale/Fowler family were central back in the mid 80s when the show first started, so for people who had tuned in day after day to see the lives of these eastenders it was quite sad

[@olivergrumitt2601]

Arthur was only 52 at the time of his death. As his son Mark said bitterly to wife Ruth “That man (Willy Roper) killed my dad. He had years ahead of him. Willy Roper stole those years”. And when Ruth said he should not hate Willy Roper forever, Mark replied “You want to bet?”

[@richardfrancis7447]
