Carter's Love them or Hate them?
Hi all, I don't visit here often but I just commented on another thread, a member was saying how much the dislike the Carter's, I said that I miss Nancy can't stand Lee or Babe but rest I love. I find it refreshing to see a truly happy marriage between Mike and Linda, it will be strange seeing him without her for a while. What is your take on them?

Shirley is the only decent one among them. Babe had her moments too, but as a family, they suck. Shirley is a strong character, she needed direction but not a family, certainly not one that dragged her down like that.

Don't love or hate them, just think they have made them all dimbos just to make Johnny seem intelligent.

Hate them. Worst family in the square since the Kapoors.
DTC ruined them by shoving them down our throats they are all exhausted characters. I would bring in a new family for the Vic if I were SOC, which I'm not sadly. |

Tina & Sylvie need to be axed.
Johnny under Ted Riley has been a huge flop. Linda, Mick & Shirley are the Carters really now with Babe & Lee leaving. |

Speaking to the Radio Times, Danny said: “The show was on its a**e. They said, ‘Danny, we want you to save EastEnders’. “I won eight awards in my first year. It really upset me when we didn’t win Best Soap this year." “It’s an ITV show and the awards are on ITV, I get it, but I was fuming. I do dip into Emmerdale and Coronation Street, but they couldn’t lace our boots.” Danny continued: “I’m a brilliant actor. Before I came it was: ‘Shout, shout, shout’." “But you learn from making films that any movement of the eyebrow says so much. I brought that to EastEnders." “Out of every soap actor I’ve got the most experience. Adam Woodyatt has played one role. No disrespect to Adam, but he’s auditioned once in his whole career." “And Steve McFadden, brilliant – but only ever played one role." http://www.ok.co.uk/tv/eastenders/94...le-mick-carter |

If SOC took the Carters out of the Vic, Danny Dyer would quit the show- i like Danny but he has a big ego.

You should see how Danny Dyer (Mick) acts in real life

loved them at first - breath of (very) fresh air. Today - still like Linda - and would probably also have liked Nancy. As for the rest of them - Mick / Johnny / Tina - past their sell-by date. Lee/Babe - leaving anyway ...

Tbh I think that the Carters were such a breath of fresh air until they done certain storylines. Linda's rape storyline, killing Stan and Mick being Shirley's son was the downfall of the Carters IMO.
I detested Nancy, loved old Johnny and I don't mind nu Johnny, I hate Babe with a passion, I love Shirley, Tina I don't mind her, Sylvie should've left ages ago, Linda is great, Mick is great but I can't help but seeing the prick that is Danny Dyer more than I see Mick, Lee I don't even want to mention because I absolutely despise his character.

Love Shirley and Mick. Linda can be OK, I liked her recent scenes with Stacey and she was great during the rapes s/l. Never know what to make of Lee or Johnny. Loath Babe, don't mind Tina and love our newest Carter...Whitney.

I would like to know why Johnny has been so underused? Is it simply that Ted Riley is a poor subsitute for Sam Strike?

The character Johnny is very unexiciting. I'll give Ted the benefit of the doubt at the moment because it may be the material he has been given but he doesn't fill me with much enthusiasm as an actor.

I sense that he could be axed at the end of his contract.
