Members DeeeDee Posted June 30, 2012 Members Share Posted June 30, 2012 Mainly mourning. Kristoff, Tonya, Sharon & Bryton all gave moving, understated performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 30, 2012 Members Share Posted June 30, 2012 Frank's 2008 funeral on EastEnders was the last one I really liked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted June 30, 2012 Members Share Posted June 30, 2012 Robert and Anna's funeral on GH is PHENOMENAL, especially the part at the very end. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDx3Jv5NVyE&feature=relmfu And we can't forget Asa's fake funeral. What fun that was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bright Eyes Posted July 1, 2012 Members Share Posted July 1, 2012 I really enjoyed Max's funeral on Hollyoaks. And Becca's, which is fully up on YT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 1, 2012 Author Members Share Posted July 1, 2012 The main complaint I had with Frank's is I felt it was just too self-involved, the show acting as a parody of itself (the awful scenes of Peggy and Pat slapping each other). I liked Dennis' funeral, mostly for Letitia Dean's agonizing performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted July 1, 2012 Members Share Posted July 1, 2012 As everything in the first generation of Skins usually was, Chris' funeral was truly original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 1, 2012 Members Share Posted July 1, 2012 Arthur Fowler probably had the best EastEnders funeral, though Michelle was obviously noticeably absent. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/B8PMspC9TFk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Pauline probably had one of the worst funerals I have ever seen in my life on soaps. You could tell there was hate between the show and Wendy Richard by that point. It's just too sad that Wendy herself died not too long after her exit. Pauline deserved better, even if she was an unwatchable beast by the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 2, 2012 Members Share Posted July 2, 2012 Den's funeral is great camp for the Peggy and Chrissie showdown. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-kc_z8FwrLs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted July 2, 2012 Members Share Posted July 2, 2012 What was the excuse used for Michelle being absent? Did the show try and get her back? I just can't with the Pauline funeral. She is my favourite EE character ever who underwent the biggest character assassination in history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 2, 2012 Members Share Posted July 2, 2012 At the time, she was heavily pregnant with Mark Fowler, Jr. (a product of her one-night stand/hate sex with Grant Mitchell that has yet to be revealed to the Mitchell's or Sharon), so she couldn't fly. There's blame on both sides really, as she got older, it seemed Wendy wanted Pauline to be more and more like herself. But the character deserved a lot better, as Pauline was more fundamental to the establishment/grain of the show more than any other character.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 2, 2012 Members Share Posted July 2, 2012 Ethel's funeral was also great, and took place the day the Slater's arrived in 2000. Yet, strangely, neither plotline detracted from each other and intertwined. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/WJZu2-GRy8c" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/zH0eXrUfg_E" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/uIAMszvDBB4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
