Nothing like the old days. Frank butcher an absolute gem. Great at arguing and great voice. Miss these days when Enders was strong on acting with great storylines.
So true. Todays’s Eastenders is VERY poor in comparison of how good it was 20 years ago. I stopped watching it almost 20 yrs ago to the day to be honest
I love 80's Eastenders but my era growing up was the 90's. I idolized the Mitchell brothers and in my opinion the last great era was around 2005 with Johnny Allen, Dennis Rickman, Andy Hunter etc. The only reason I'll catch the odd episode nowadays is because of Phil Mitchell.
The problem is, with all the different writers over the years, Phil's character changed somewhat. The writers were never consistent with how Phil was originally written. Sure, he was always a hard man, but going into the 2000's he went more phycho and that's down to the writing.
@@virgilblaze9090 actually I disagree I think they have always been fairly consistent with Phil's temperament, rarely argues with elderly or women. However when it comes to Frank you could tell he had a deep respect for him as a stalwart to the old east end.
While I agree with part of that ,he changed after finding out grant had slept with Kathy,the Kim brooks episode and Phil attacking him was start of the Phil change @@virgilblaze9090
Mike Reid added so much to Eastenders. Frank was one of THE best characters. R.I.P Mike

More fishy deals than captain birdseye 😂😂
Mike Reid was great
Chris just a brilliant voice and legendary actor
He was my favourite back then
Classic : "...let's get someone down here to check the mileage on everything..'"
Frank : "oooh Wow wow just a minute now I remember ..."
Brilliant drama 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
This soap took a serious nose dive, the quality of today’s eastenders is poor
I agree, the glory days of Eastenders was the 1980's. Den and Angie. Pete Beale.
Today’s EastEnders is dire, I’ve watched a few episodes and they left me feeling stale and bored

David had a Mullet in the 90s
"A right battleaxe by all accounts"
"Battleship more like"
rofl!
Pat's look.
I love in these there always put the kettle on then fuck off back out
frank butcher remind me of harry cross from Brookside
More fishy deals than captain Birdseye!
Bloody hell Phil used to show people respect back then.... only resorted to his thugish side as a last resort!

Frank butchers voice 😂😂
The investigating officer was such a terrible actor!
Agree especially at 2:34-2:43
It's funny how everyone seems to have there own business
Why does noone in EastEnders seem to go to university
Michelle was at uni during this period.
They probably figured out University was a waste of time and decided to start businesses earning real money.
😂😂😂
I think this when Frank walked out on pat and his children
Mike reid at his very best
