Mick Hires A HITMAN! | EastEnders

[@thecomputingchronicles]

I remember enjoying this scene at the time. Still plays really well.

[@playerovgy]

What an AMAZING role this hitman played!! Blown away with it!!

[@garethgazz9332]

That's Kevin Eldon, one of the best comedy cameo actors in the country. Brilliant casting choice.

[@FullPlaythroughs]

It's really hard to take Kevin Eldon seriously as a hitman 😂all I see is his roles in Alan Partridge and Hot Fuzz, but maybe that's the whole point

[@aryastark772]

One of the darkest scenes from Eastenders. And that’s saying something

[@TaxingIsThieving]

Very true

[@shifashahine2005]

This was an amazing storyline .

[@rorymckernan8502]

Mick has not got it in him, to be a killer. He may threaten it, but its not in his nature. When he thought he'd killed Dean, he was panicking and fretting all the time, and when he thought he'd killed Stuart, he was doing the same.

It's Kevin Eldon, oooh pardon!

[@Hard-Boiled-Bollock]

IMO Reece Sheersmith would have been brilliant in this role, and would have been great as a recurring character

[@Ttkoize]

Seemed like a nice guy 😂

[@daniel_b1uk088]

He transforms into fanny thomas when he goes out killing

[@xplaybwoix]

What a mouthful…ooo pardon

[@mattroberts3331]

He’s not changed much since living in the travel tavern with Alan partridge

[@janegreenstock7916]

The casting of the Actor Kevin Eldon as a hitman was bloody genius and makes Eastenders go up in my estimation

[@janegreenstock7916]

@English nerd yes

[@Hard-Boiled-Bollock]

I personally think Reece Sheersmith would have been perfect for this role

[@H.K.5]

That guy reminds me of Silas from Hollyoaks.

[@CT_97]

Still a really good scene…

[@napalmslayer]

Kevin Eldon in Eastenders?!

[@terrybaker8156]

It's Joplin from Dead Set

[@carlosrobbins9178]

Who played the hitman? That was a very good performance. (Strange, but his mannerisms reminded me very much of the actor who plays Rocky. Maybe that's a style of acting?) Anyway, they should bring him back -- once he's reformed, of course. The residents of Albert Square do a very good job of murder without paying some geezer to do it for them.

[@funkymonkeyuk]

That’s Kevin Eldon. Very talented and funny man. He’s been in a ton of stuff, but most notably Hot Fuzz and the sketch show, Big Train.

[@carlosrobbins9178]

@@funkymonkeyuk Thanks for the information on this talented performer. And greetings from NYC.

[@funkymonkeyuk]

@@carlosrobbins9178 You’re welcome, buddy. If you haven’t seen either of those that I mentioned, they’re well worth checking out. Big train is very Monty Python-esque. There are several full episodes on KZbin. Hot Fuzz is a fantastically clever and funny movie. Fellow greetings from the U.K. New York is one of my favourite places. Been there many times.

[@honeypower]

@@funkymonkeyuk Simon Quinlank, king of hobbies, and Rod Hull! Was also great in that Partirdge episode, Jam and others. Very funny comedy actor but perhaps an aquired taste

[@funkymonkeyuk]

@@honeypower oh, haha. It’s like bumper cars. Yes, of course the Partridge episode!

Ok, I have a couple of questions. 1. Who is this dude? 2. Why does he look like Lofty?

Macadaynu! Not a fan of the show but Kevin Eldon is a comedy legend.

[@Mohahmed121]

Eastenders should’ve just went the Mick Carter gangster story. But no, they ruined it by making him a total wuss. It would’ve been nice to see The Mitchell’s with proper competition in the square.

[@benkavanagh1229]

It's because he was offered a villain gangster type full time role when he did Hollyoaks Later back in 2013 but he turned it down because he wanted a role that was going to last like a family man type role. Apparently he was offered the part of Carl White but turned it down, probably for that reason.

[@Foralluhaterz]

They made him the biggest wimp, more than Ian

[@ZachAsaD]

Nah gangster doesn’t fit mick at all and his family

Hugely disappointed the hitman didn't kill off Aidan. Even more disappointing Aidan beat up Mick without Mick fighting back.
