Is the bloke who plays Marlon one of the worst actors in British soaps? Is emotional face is laughable. Talk about a one trick pony. His shifty look this evening when the police officer was round made Dev off CS look like Sir Anthony Hopkins

    Fortunately the copper didn't realise that Marlon and Lauren might know something. They covered it up beautifully.

    Yeah you wouldn’t want to play poker with Marvin, he’d have the shirt off your back mate.

    No, you're right, he's a chef, but Mark Charnock who plays him must be doing it well enough to confuse the OP, judging by the thread title.

    The Marlon method is taught at most stage schools these days.

    Anger: flail arms
    Happy: flail arms
    Sad: flail arms
    Joy: flail arms
    Grief: look constipated and be ready to flail at any moment.

    Moron overacts to the point of hilarity. But its Fatpaddy I cant stand, what exactly is the point of this bloke? He appeared in the scenes with Aaron and then Moron yesterday just standing there like a pillock.

    The coppers should be arresting him for criminally bad acting. Its completely wrong that he's keeping an actual actor out of work but at least we can enjoy him being outacted by little April.

    Seriously, Mr Tickle and Darth Barton have no place on our screens

    I just love how he is being out-acted by the wonderful Amelia Flanagan in every scene they have together. Dunno where ED get their kids from but some could have a long career in this industry.

    Makes me laugh when he does the wobbly lip and moves his eyes from side to side very quickly. :D

    I think he is better when he's doing happy scenes.
