Give the guy a break. Another anti Johnny thread.

He is trying his best with the material he is given.

I thought Johnny gave a powerful performance when Linda was on Facetime with Deeply Stupid Mick, but then I realised it wasn't Johnny it was the doorframe behind her.

Thanks.

Yes the difference is a mannequin is more animated than Johnny.

I think this is a bit of a mean thread. However, I actually feel really sorry for Ted as he is massively out of his depth on EastEnders. Such a shame, as Jonny was a great character with Sam playing him.

Ted and Sam have both been given nothing to do! They're both just as good actors imo. Tbf, I do prefer Ted in the role though.

But least give the character something to do, there's a number of storylines he could be given even if it's just the same old, falls for someone they cheat on him, it's better then nothing!

That cold, sister.

Personally I would love to see Johnny become a professional Ventriloquist, I think he'd be great at it

If they stuck a cardboard cutout of him behind the bar I doubt anyone would notice the difference.

His in the same predicament the same actor was in, no storylines of any worth.

Unless he gets something then I think he be gone this time next year, his got no personality to speak of, he stiff and lank in scenes and its very telling.

I keep saying this every time he appears on screen. The delivery of the actor's lines is very cringe! It reminds me of somebody at school reading off the script for the first time. Much preferred the previous actor that played Johnny. The current actor is maybe best suited to theatre?

The problem Johnny has is he's way too nice as opposed to Sam playing him, with a bit of dark side.

I want to give him a break but unless he's given a good storyline or even A storyline soon, he is very hard to get excited about. Bless him.

Don't worry he's not, I much prefer actors who can actually act rather than care what they look like, also he's the wrong gender.

A disaster of a recast. He just cant act and looks awkward.

Keep Lee and axe Johnny.

DTC only picked this guy to play Johnny because he fancied him.

I feel sorry for the actor as he has had nothing challenging to do since he arrived. It's unfair to blame him for this. Perhaps when Lee has gone Johnny will get some decent material to work with.

Take care...

The mannequin is an Auton these are essentially life-sized plastic dummies, automatons animated by the Nestene Consciousness, an extraterrestrial, disembodied gestalt intelligence which first arrived on Earth in hollow plastic meteorites.

Autons conceal deadly weapons within their hands, which can kill or vaporize their targets. The typical Auton does not look particularly realistic, resembling a mannequin, being robotic in its movements and mute. However, more sophisticated Autons can be created, which look and act human except for a slight plastic sheen to the skin and a flat sounding voice.

They are placed in society in important every Day roles awaiting the command.....

To kill

Apparently that is going to happen in the New Year according to the Johnny actor
