Why does this appalling actor always have his mouth open?

He irritates me beyond belief.

    Me too! It's a really bad habit and does my head in. I keep wanting to push his jaw back up!

    And combined with his habit of always having his head leaning to one side.

    Please get rid of him and tell him he's not good looking

    He has three bad habits:
    Mouth always open
    Sometimes speaks as if his constipated
    Neck cramp head
    He did say he was getting acting tips from Jamie Foreman (Derek)

    However I think if he works on trying to get rid of those habits, he'll be fine. I dont think his an appalling actor I think his alright. With his upcoming SL we might see a better side to him and hopefully a good character development.

    I'm really surprised the director or whoever hasn't brought him up on this. It is very distracting yet so easy to fix. It is getting out of control!

    damn I hadnt really noticed this, will be the only thing I can see from now on lol

    I dont think David Witts is all that bad an actor...the character is dull and tired but he isnt as wooden as Hetti Bywater has shown herself to be :S

    Sometimes his acting is ok, and in other scenes it's really bad.
    I agree about the mouth open thing. That's the reason why I went off him. I got irritated with it.

    You're missing a full stop at the end of that sentence. Grammar correction FAIL. :)

    The way both Joey & NuLucy like to stand there with their gobs wide open, I assumed they were having a fly-catching competition.

    Must admit I'll be bitterly disappointed if I hear that wasn't the case - as I'd already stuck a fiver on Joey being the winner. :o

    I find it VERY hard to understand a word Joey says - is the character supposed to have a speech impediment???

    why?:confused:

    I don't like him because i don't like how he treated Ian in his own house. I also don't like his whispering voice,but i don't think the actor is very bad. He is ok.

    Compared to Joey's mouth opening,Lucy's mouth opening all the time irritates me more.

    He's a cliched, predictable character played by a cliched, predictable 'actor'. That's why there's so much 'groaning'.

    Maybe Eastenders should think outside the box and create an original and fresh character and hire an experienced and competent actor to play him rather than an amateur model with no acting experience who thinks mumbling in a bad cockney accent makes equates to 'brooding bad boy'.

    Nobody wants any physical contact with him on set for fear of getting splinters.

    On the plus side, he'd make a cracking tailor's dummy, scarecrow, or even an 'Aunt Sally.'
    So not all bad.

    I don't think he's acually that bad.I prefer him to Tyler and Tamwar.He's got good chemistry with Lauren and I think its a shame they haven't done more with him and Michael together as a partnership.I like him with Max, but then I've always liked Max with younger male charcters like Bradley and Darren
