Pauline was savage 🤣

[@TheJessienotes]

Pauline always has to poke her nose into other people’s businesses 😒

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

Misguided women like Melanie and Lisa could've learned well from the advice of a woman like Pauline. Look how things turned out for Melanie and Lisa.

[@midnightwitch606]

@@STEJTHEGREATEST Lisa ended up being a killer (shot Phil) and Mel was in a relationship with a thug

[@ivorharden]

Ian lied about Lucy having cancer. So Pauline (and Ian) was in the wrong.

[@midnightwitch606]

Classic Ian, lieing weasel, can't believe he'd say that about a child

[@williamfoy599]

Nobody had a mobile phone back then except Ian, Phil and Steve.

[@hausofeastenders8686]

We’re overdue a Dan Sullivan return 🙌

[@scottyunitedboy2925]

Unless they recast the role, I don't think it's going to happen. Craig Fairbrass is making more money from doing voiceovers these days.

[@masterknife8423]

Jesus Mel looks nearly the same back then as she does now

[@H.K.5]

She was way better looking back then though. I'm not saying she doesn't look good now, she does.

Hamza Khaliq it's literally called ageing🤦🏻she's almost 50 ffs

Every time I see Jamie I always smile. He’s so beautiful and was a lovely character x

[@iluvlafferty]

I thought Jamie was overrated because of his looks. He was whiny, spoke to people like dirt just because of his undying loyalty to Phil and Jack Ryder was such an amateur actor.

[@jhecht424]

What a joke, Lisa trying to act all high and mighty, considering what she’d later do to Mark. What a hypocrite.

[@missyjes7671]

Lisa's croaky voice was so annoying

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

2:28 LOL at Gianni standing up in the background!!!! He reminds me of the fight between Bob Probert and Marty McSorley where the players on both benches stood up to watch!!!!!!!

[@Keibro]

Loved this episode. It was a Sunday night special episode to mark the shows 15th anniversary. Do you have the full episode by any chance?

[@eescenes85]

Yeah it was amazing! Defo my favourite anniversary episode! And it's on Dailymotion mate, KZbin won't accept it due to BBC Worldwide www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=www.dailymotion.com/video/xlek5h&ved=2ahUKEwixwPfd7vTeAhXC2aQKHcMRCUwQ3ywwAHoECA0QAw&usg=AOvVaw3Ev4Uhz7VZlDFx9fMbw8aL

Nice one mate. Will give that a watch later 😊

[@seanporter5867]

Dan Sullivan was the best

Wendy Richard RIP.

[@ryanandrews321]

Lol not going to apologise for slapping Mel after you find out the truth? 🤣

[@H.K.5]

So many legends in one scene.

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

2:58 Beppe was like, "For shame, Ian. Even I wouldn't lie about children being ill whilst falsifying my police reports".

[@lefez9015]

[@forzacmo9069]

Lisa was such a great and a loyal friend to Mel.

[@jaredporikos2197]

aww I bet Tamzin and Lucy feel lucky that they got to share the screen with Wendy Richard

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

I bet they wish their characters could've been as smart as Wendy's, too.

@@STEJTHEGREATEST yeah but I like lisa,

[@jaredporikos2197]

@@STEJTHEGREATEST I love how Lisa treated Phil

[@midnightwitch606]

Pauline had every right to think Mel was up to no good, but she was also good at passing judgment and getting it wrong by butting in

[@aljwham]

These were the days. Telephone in the Vic, should bring it back.

Al J in 2019?

[@aljwham]

Anon Collins yes for nostalgia

[@jacktheripoff1888]

Can you upload that episode where that one person was really angry at the other one because of what that person said about them ?

[@williamfoy599]

That narrows it down to about 3,000 episodes!

[@jacktheripoff1888]

@@williamfoy599 True. Ok, just show the one that takes place around Christmas time at the pub where everyone's dressed up in Christmas cheer and then fight breaks out.

Pauline vs Mel

[@zainabkhalid103]

Pauline was a great character and as much as I like Mel, she deserved this

[@carlaconnor8347]

How exactly did she deserve it??? Ian lied about his daughter having cancer.. Mel was only marrying him to look after Lucy

[@kwesiidun8512]

Pauline standing up for her nephew.

[@Buckaroo_Baldwin]

Her nephew who lied about his daughter having cancer to manipulate Mel into marrying him.

[@kwesiidun8512]

@@Buckaroo_Baldwin - Yeah, there was that, I suppose.

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

0:56 Ian's reactions were kinda funny, though. ;*P

Pauline was a slapper alright...lol

Good upload mate! Do you remember when Lynne Slater slapped Janie in The Vic? I’ve been trying to find it for years.

[@eescenes85]

Cheers mate! And ya know something mate ya not the only one who has requested that scene, Dominic Wileman has also asked for it, he said it was somewhere around 2001 time, could that be right? :)

EE Scenes 85 I would say so mate yes.

[@jaredporikos2197]

LOL Phil even knows to step out of Pauline's way XD

[@Chris-kz7us]

What happened to the pay phone lol

[@peter0010]

Will have got ripped out coz we've all got mobile phones nowadays

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

2:24 So true. Melanie and Lisa gravitated towards each other because they were both bikes, and realised they had to stick together to cover each others backs.

[@Quirky_Ventriloquist]

I don't know if this sounds weird, but I think it would be interesting if Mel and Lisa became a lesbian couple, because they were so close. 🥰

[@dawnfinch8232]

Never liked Lisa that whingeing voice got on my nerves

[@MikeStarKaraokeUK]

Loved Pauline she did not take any ...... from anyone.

[@Quirky_Ventriloquist]

Neither did Mel.

[@leonardbailey5519]

Wendy had such a Diana Rigg vibe

[@MONKEY-ne7vu]

Mel was smoking hot in this episode 🥰

[@DeepScreenAnalysis]

It was Melanie Healy at this point, not Mel Owen.

I dunno something to do with gas

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

1:54 Are you auditioning to become part of Bananarama or something, Melanie?????

[@rick182z]

Why did Beppe just answer the phone... like it was his house

[@eescenes85]

Because there was a bomb found in the middle of the Square so they was all waiting for news for what was happening

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

As a former policeman, Beppe feels like he owns EVERY BUILDING he happens to be in.

@@zainabkhalid103 its because he was expecting a call from johnny allen

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

1:04 Pauline was right. Daniel-San Sullivan ended up being a bonafide gun-toting loony, kidnapping Mel and wanting to kill folks, and Melanie was always getting involved with criminal types, and ended up becoming a violent psycho herself. Ian could've maybe gotten her on the straight and narrow if she'd stayed with him!!!!

[@AndrewChapman]

Pauline's slaps usually sounded a bit weak, like she wasn't slapping them hard enough like others do. But this one actually sounded like a more powerful slap.

[@Goldenrod636]

Technically she was still Mel Beale here as she couldn't get divorced December 2000.

[@tattooedandy93]

Sorry for sounding weird but Dan Sullivan was good looking.

[@Buckaroo_Baldwin]

Not weird.

[@kaysmith8992]

Beppe and Lisa together would've had the raspiest-voiced kid

I like how they had a phone for the customer's yes Pat this ones for you love. Who is it? Its a manure company. O thanks I was going to lay some this morning.

3:00 Look at how Billy in the background has to teeter on the edge of his chair, due to being next to an alpha male like Gianni. :(
