...doesn't he? I heard a while back, on this board, that it would be this month,
but does anyone know exactly when - or even if he DOES have a storyline at all?

One reason why I wish I'd watched "Coronation Street" as much as "EastEnders"
between 2004 and 2005, is for the storyline where Dev tried to marry Sunita
but was framed for bigamy by Maya, who then blew up several of his shops
AND the unfolding story of his fathering many illegitimate children with other women
which IIRC spelled the end of his marriage, prompting her exit last year!

The marriage/hostage storyline (from what I saw on "TV Burp") seemed more 'explosive' than
any events involving the Ferreiras in "EastEnders", almost at the same time!

P.S. I've been watching EE non-stop since 2002, and now I can't add any other soaps
to my weekly TV viewing, as I'm in full-time work, and therefore don't have time to watch them!

I find this thread to be a little racist. Why compare two families/characters because they have similair colour/ethnic /relgion origins? Comparing the Ferrias to Dev is irrelevant. Why not just compare all the black characters in the process? who do you prefer - Kelly Crabtree or Patrick Trueman ?

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be racist - I was referring to Dev and Sunita Alahan in particular
because their events were, with hindsight, worth watching, and their being Asian is positively striking.

BTW last year, towards the end of a degree course at university (BA Media With Cultural Studies),
I did a 10,000-word-dissertation called "Class And Ethnicity In British Television Soap Operas".
If you would like a copy, send me a PM with your e-mail address, and I'll send it to you - really!
