EE: The actor who plays Bobby is fantastic!
He really impressed me tonight and is always so consistently great. I hope TPTB have the sense not to recast him as he's a real talent and will be even more fantastic when he's older!

He really is, especially after today's episode as he spoke to Jane, with him acknowledging his faults and that he needs help and wants to be treated so he doesn't do it again, his intonation, manner of expression evoked sympathy, which isn't easy for any actor regardless of experience to pull off.

Hes really impressed me with being one of very few soap characters who want to tell the truth to the cops and get it all of his chest!! He may be a little short tempered shit but honesty always scores points with me and i see redemption in the child so good on him !!! Normally in soaps they drag it out just for the sake of a storyline, but heres a child just wanting to come clean so hats off to him !! Infact hes doing a good job of showing up all the lying adults around him (even though they were trying to protect him) im just kinda one of those people whos "Liers always get found out in the long run so why bother"
so this storyline i like

I think he's great especially considering the fact that when the actor joined the soap he probably thought he would be more of a background character. At the time of casting they couldn't tell him he was going to have such a large role in the Lucy storyline!

He did the live episodes as well. A good young actor with hopefully a bright future.

He's good, but he's no Freddie Highmore as Norman Bates.
How old is he supposed to be now, anyway? That moustache he's got coming in makes him look older than I think he's supposed to!? |

For his age, he is probably the best actor EastEnders has had. He will get even better over time with more experience.

The kid will go far! He needs to be the final face of Bobby! Lorna never got recasted from joining around his Age so Elliot needs to not be recasted as this kid has talent.

He's shite. Very stilted performances, seem's very one-dimensional.

Did you people watch the scene where he told Jane that he loves her and that he needs help? Best performance of the episode. Beautifully understated and gentle.

He is a good little actor imho and has had critical claim for his stage work, which in turn has given more experience than half the adult cast. He is still only a child, which is important to remember, so has a lot more to learn but the future for him is very bright. Quote:

Good or not he will inevitably have to leave as he needs to get his 'comeuppance' as is soap law. They can hardly ask him to not work elsewhere while his character is in jail/youth offenders
Unless he only gets months then chances are they will lose him |
