Just wondering what were some of your favourite comedy moments on Eastenders. My three have to be Heather saying things that vibrate frighten her before Shirley said ''That's a shame with your looks'', Billie's best man speech were he said "When Phil said he wanted a shotgun wedding, Lisa took it the wrong way" and Bianca talking about a smart man in a wheelchair (Steven hawking) and Ricky thought it was Adam. Priceless!

Vanessa Gold's classic "Bubbly's in the fridge!" rampage. Probably wasn't supposed to be funny but it sure as hell was

Ricky and Bianca's first wedding. That whole episode was comic gold but the highlight has to be Ricky, Grant, Phil and Nigel all waking up the next day dreadfully hungover thinking they'd ended up in France.
Grant - 'Does anyone remember getting on a boat?'

Very rare for Eastenders to get this kind of thing nailed on but that was laugh out loud funny.

We've had some great one liners from Shirley over the years, but some of my favourite funny moments were during Southend week...her jammed in that dodgem car with Andrew was hilarious, she didn't have to say a word, it was all in the face.

I really enjoyed the episode a couple of weeks ago with the aftermath of Phil's shooting. Ronnie was breezily telling Sharon to calm down as though Phil had stubbed his toe, while Ian responded with the incredulous, "Again??" response after being told of Phil's shooting. I was chuckling the whole half hour.

Shirley is the queen of one liners and I could list a million of her comedic moments but one of the best ones was when Heather took her to that convention and she strode into the room with Bonnie Tyler's 'Total Eclispe of the Heart' playing in the background. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qy_LN34LfY or 'Engaging in the conversation'.

And you can't forget Pat and Peggy in the ice cream van.

Technically not in the actual show but Grant and Phil dancing to Kung Fu Fighting - that was hilarious.

Kim on webcam and when she was on CCTV in the Minute Mart.

A more recent one was Ian saying 'again?!' in response to Phil being shot.

So many but the original ''You Bitch, You Cow'' was just total genius

Another great moment was when Patrick and Jim were making hooch and the pressure was too high so it exploaded all over Jim. The skill of John Bardon made it fantastic.

I can't remember the exact wording but a few years ago Libby was going out with a disabled character called Adam. A few of the characters were in the R&R when there was a shooting (when Jack got shot). Libby shouts "Where's Adam?" and Darren says looking at an empty wheelchair "I've found part of him".

One of my favourite things I've ever seen on Eastenders, I never forgot it.
Sharon: "what are you looking at?"
Shirley: "nothing much"

I also quite liked it when Dexter was talking about his Dad's transplant and he said:
Dexter: "I dont just give my organs away you know"
Jay: "that's not what I've heard"

That will go down as one of the best, funny moments in soap.

The unintentionally funny scenes are always the best. I've honestly never laughed as much at EastEnders than during the episode where Shirley shot Phil. The armed police storming the Mitchell house was comedy GOLD

I also loved Sharon's "my son is in the kitchen eating a biscuit" purely because of the sheer intensity with which Letitia delivered the line. It was hilarious.

I liked the Barry wedding where he got splashed by the puddle, thought Barry was quite and entertaining character.

i think Janine has some great lines over the years, especially when describing other characters.

Even Kat has had some pretty comical lines!

Michel was brilliant. "No I don't want to go to your munters ball" on about the singles night at R+R

Neither of those are in any way funny?

Different strokes for different folks..


I remember a Christmas episode when Grant and Phil were both still in it when I found the Mitchell/Queen Vic moments hilarious - can't remember the details now however as it was so long ago

That made me laugh out loud, something that rarely happens (intentionally) with Eastenders. I much prefer the one liners like that to badly written slapstick. I'm thinking of Alfie Moon running through the Square looking for a condom here!

It's all in the delivery.

I love how rude you can be on these forums without blinking an eye. It's so refreshing!

What about the Karl chasing Ian Beale scene? Watching Ian waddling at "high" speed and Karl "the hardman" White's comedy girlie running style made me happy I have rewindable tv. I watched it about 6 times over it was so funny!

"Philip! It's your Auntie Patricia!" - Pat and Peggy drunk in the ice cream van.

Dot thinking she was hearing voices when it was actually coming from her webcam.

One of my all time favourites.
Jake Moon gets attacked by Bradley for taking Stacey home.
"Cant believe this, molested by a teeniebopper, attacked by the Ginger Ninja, Christ i only came out for a pint!"

When Grant threw Tiffs Dad Terry out the Vic and threw his crutches afterwards.

When Johnny slammed Peggys hand in the door and threatened her by singing once I caught a fish alive!
