Seriously, was this guy meant to be scary?

The gun was in his back pocket and Freddie/Cameron combined couldn't overpower him before he could get to it?

Tbh I found him more funny. But then thats cause I recognise the actor from various sitcoms. He's more of a sitcom actor as supposed to anything else.

Yeh, I think that was part of the problem, you couldn't see the character as a tough guy because I've seen him in comedy so much

The actor is a great comedian. But he makes a terrible villain

I either see him as a villain in a children's pantomime, on cbeebies or comedy. He's not a soap villain at all and writing didn't help at all. I don't know why they gave him the part of a big villain. Maybe we might me Grandma Gupter in the coming weeks and she could be a great addition.

The Police in real life must be pretty annoyed at how the HO police force acted, the main policewoman during the siege was useless and the whole "apologise to my Grandma" bit was so funny.

The Police would never ever arrange a getaway vehicle, given they thought it was just him with one gun, they would have just stormed the place. They only had to shoot him and it was sorted.

He was the worst 'villain' I have ever seen, pregnant Lindsey could have overpowered him! It was beyond ridiculous to expect that he could single handedly hold up the whole hospital and not one person had a go!

I thought the whole storyline was laughable and his name says it all.

Everything about Bob was comedy, right down to his name and the lines he came out with.

I don't think he was supposed to be a serious, threatening villain at all.
