After ruby took that knife out yesterday with his name on it, it made me reliase how much i miss johnny.
he was the best gangster ever, and i loved the way he treated andy, jake, danny, tina, dennis and sharon. even better was the relationship between him and ruby, and the brilliant fued between him and the mitchell brothers.
and billy murray played the role to perfection, a sinister and scary edge to him, always able to portray johnny in a believable way, he was great! i miss him so much.
i hope billy does a few guest spots in the bill again soon.

couldn't have put it better myself. glad he's gone.
But Johnny Allen really had style. If only they'd written his character better.
I loved his very odd and unique relationship with Stacey, it showed a different side to Johnny without making him look sappy.
I felt Get Johnny week was a massive missed opportunity. I wanted them to explore Johnny in depth in his last episodes, instead we got a load of silly car chases and running around in pink jumpers.
Stacey, Dot, and Pat confronting him (which was done in a very half-assed way during that January week that Johnny and Ruby left) would have been more interesting than Phil and Grunt running around. Those three females had a hold on Johnny which really should have been intrumental in his downfall.
-he had some ridiculous moral high ground despite being a killer :mad:
-he managed to push Andy of a bridge despite being older and probably weaker
-brought Ruby into the soap (she's goes through phases of less annoyness
-he was so controlling yet not in a believable way
-infuriating, iratating and unrealisitic
-connected to the "ganster era" with Get Jhony week :yawn:
-HE WORE PINK JUMPERS- what more can I say. :rolleyes:
Wow, that rant was fun of to the Sarah thread to have a good rant about here now

I was expecting loads of action and drama. What did I get?
Phil and Grant playing golf?! :yawn:
Johnny in a pink jumper?! :eek:
Ruby making scones?! :sleep:
The only worthwhile part of Get Johnny week was getting to see the lovely Danny Moon again.
So true! I can't stand the way the Mitchell's dominate everything....I've never been a fan of them. What I hated was the fact that they suddenly made Johnny into an alcoholic at the end- it just came out of nowhere and was unnecessary. Billy Murray was great though!
Yes, that was quite annoying. They've done this to loads of other characters as well. Grrr! :mad:
