this was when eastenders was at its best, good writing, good storylines, and the scenes between just two characters, they should bring this format back
These sort of scenes are coming up on drama now there in 2002 building upto the brilliant 03 era den,Andy, than the brilliant Johnny Allen and phil and grant returning to save peggy
I would love to live in a world full of people like Dot Cotton who says it how it is when she needs too but will also try to help you as much as possible at the right time.
"Yeah I'm a poxy laundrette with some deranged Christian who has watched too much David Attenborough!" - always loved that line since I saw this episode back in 2004. LOL!
The one thing EastEnders missed when Den was brought back in 2003 is that we never got an eventual storyline with Den and Grant Mitchell or even Den and Peggy Mitchell. If Leslie hadn’t of been sacked we could have seen Grant and Peggy Vs Den and Sharon but sadly with Leslie passing away Den would have been killed off again in the end
was a brilliant scene and so relevant to eastenders and its history,den actually looks like an older version of his younger self here which is in contrast to his aged look with hair brushed back and leather jacket,its a pity what happened in reality dictated dens demise.
@@soundcreeps5371 i disagree...i think he retained a lot of his old traits....in accordance with writing him out of the show the second time they made him seem older and very bitter.....God rest him he was a great actor.
They treated him like Leslie Grantham and not the character Den Watts. The storylines with Grant and Peggy would have been epic. Eastenders missed the ball here. Ok the Internet scandal was bad but it would have blown over in the year. Wasn't this the same year Steve Mcfadden was caught dogging?
Den was just epic, they should've kept him. You need a character like him to keep things moving. Archie Mitchell was just a bit TOO evil. Den was just right :)
Well said Lynda. At one time there were so many great Eastenders videos on youtube, but thanks to the BBC all we have now are stupid little teasers. Makes me happy I don't bother with a TV licence.
why exactly do the BBC take full eps of EastEnders down anyway? I wouldn't mind if they were on DVD or sommin, but they aren't. They just yank em' off youtube and leave them to rot in some warehouse. Either put em' on dvd or let people upload them !
😂 the homes in Albert square aren't developed enough to have washing machines but can have dishwashers etc which makes no sense...i would have thought they would have upgraded the homes that could fit washing machines in the early 2000's..😂
Leslie Granthem had been axed by this point! The producers tried to make him as washed up as possible with June Brown delivering the lines that he is a has been!
I don’t think she was ever meant to be a beauty. She was very highly strung in the early years of Eastenders. She wasn’t particularly likeable then. But she’d evolved into a calmer person with great wisdom by this time.
ooo I say Den I won't put your dennum dungarees designers dish deluxe in my Kenwood turbos power 500 litres compact washer machine. Thanks Dot. What for Den? I found a 50p in your tumble dryer. ooo I say Den that was for popudopulous Hippopotamus for the tea baging party next Tuesday.
Two best characters in Eastenders history! and the acting in this scene is absolutely excellent.
Best Eastenders scene ever! I miss Den,he was an excellent character.
me 2

Exactly. I think dot was on the money here. Den does push people away in part because he hates them.
June Brown Is Incrediable, she draws you in. her and barbara could have wipe the floor with theese actors in hollywood
Actors in hollywood are satanic nonces that should be exterminated from society..no one should be looking up to them.
Two legends that deserve an oscar
Great scene with two great characters.
Have to love Dot. She was always caring for people regardless of who they were.
I would love to live in a world full of people like Dot Cotton who says it how it is when she needs too but will also try to help you as much as possible at the right time.
one of the best scenes in ee history!
great acting from June Brown
Man...this scene is SO damned good...I've never seen the full episode, but what I wouldn't give...
"Yeah I'm a poxy laundrette with some deranged Christian who has watched too much David Attenborough!" - always loved that line since I saw this episode back in 2004. LOL!
"Yeah, and Chrissie left it!"
"Oh no, she hasn't, has she!"
Good sarcastic bit, Den!
This is such a fascinating character analysis
DOT IS AMAZING.
RIP LESLIE GRANTHAM
I've never seen this show, but she is amazing!
June Brown. The real deal. That monologue was extraordinary.
we've all been (or will be) in a situation like this. Someone who's older laying the law down.
Dot is an amazing character
Aw I miss Den :(

you got to love Dot she one of the best on eastenders
dot is a legend

LillyCandyCane Den would have sorted Max out for trying to destroy the square!
@@alexjones1985 Max had the right to do that. They all let him go inside for something he didn't do.
@@alexjones1985 he would of helped max because he hates Phil and enjoys the excitement no matter were it is

RIP 2 great actors.
This is from Thursday 26th August 2004
This is a great video with June Brown and Leslie Grantham. Both brilliant actors and 2 good characters in Dot and Den
May they both rest in peace now

Couldn't agree more! They're all on UKTV PLAY since Grantham died from the start, but they should be available for all to see any time.
"What you see is what you get, take it or leave it!"
Good on ya Dot
Where's the full episode? This was really good, hilarious and heartbreaking, I'd love to see it in full.
This is amazing thanks for this
RIP Leslie.
very well acted. East Ender's is crap today. Years ago it was the best show.
Couldn't agree more! Best characters, best actors. I know times have to change, but these pair were pure gold.
June brown was amazing in this scene
why is it that no one in eastenders has their own washing machine?
also all them machines have been in there since the 80s, Arthur fixed a few and they still work lol.
😂 the homes in Albert square aren't developed enough to have washing machines but can have dishwashers etc which makes no sense...i would have thought they would have upgraded the homes that could fit washing machines in the early 2000's..😂
Cso everyone spends too much time arguing rather then buying one
have you got the esp where denis trys to to get dot to speak to jim about her cancer. mazandtaz
Rip June and leslie
Lesley had a legitimate, almost movie like quality.
Dot was right 💯.
😍😍
Hi, what is Dot right about 100%
What is Dont right about? Question
Question h
RIP to both
theres hardly any clips of ee on utube now cos they all had to be taken down for copyright :(
The producers would be hard pressed to get a scene like this on Eastenders nowadays.
I agree with this.
speak the truth dot!
how do get full episode it was on TH-cam but dispeared...look everywhere :-(
Does anyone have the full episode?
Dot looks the same as she did 30 odd years ago 😂
same as Kathy
go dot! haha :)
Leslie Granthem had been axed by this point! The producers tried to make him as washed up as possible with June Brown delivering the lines that he is a has been!
Rip den.. leslie grantham
RIP June

first of all she a prodstant not catholic.
second, after she has poked her nose in, then 9.5 out of 10 thank her for it cause she helps them.
I agree in a way. They could have had him have a breakdown after Sharon disowned him and then explored his obsession with Sharon from a medical angle.
Dot Cotton abides.
i no lol its annoying just uploading small clips
Sadly, I don't think Dot'll survive much longer on her own, since all she can now see is a blur. How can she live long like that?😟😥
Den was a bad man, but he was handsome!
I wonder if Dot was beautiful when she was young?
I don’t think she was ever meant to be a beauty. She was very highly strung in the early years of Eastenders. She wasn’t particularly likeable then. But she’d evolved into a calmer person with great wisdom by this time.
yeah i know that already lol
I need therapy too My lovely Dot!!!!
ooo I say Den I won't put your dennum dungarees designers dish deluxe in my Kenwood turbos power 500 litres compact washer machine. Thanks Dot. What for Den? I found a 50p in your tumble dryer. ooo I say Den that was for popudopulous Hippopotamus for the tea baging party next Tuesday.
Den 2.0 was terrible. The writers really messed this up.
Den needed angie to work as a character
What year was this?
2004
2022
@@Noah-gx6uo Oh I see, we've got a little comedian here now have we? Very fucking funny. Ha! Ha! Ha!
Great actors, both dead now, rip
Cor den is too much to get through
@JohnAdams198805

People hate Leslie Grantham.bacause he killed an English man in the war
