Anyone For Dennis?
‘BAD news for EastEnders fans this week as its announced that at least some of the Ferreira family are staying.
In a desperate last-ditch attempt to raise any interest in them, producers are to do one of their classic Changing Rooms style makeovers on a character and turn Kareena into the Squares latest sex symbol.
And just like Changing Rooms, itll be cheap, tasteless and bound to end in tears. If Kareena and the whole Ferreira family suddenly became naturists its unlikely anyone would even notice.
The residents of Walford have failed to show any interest in the fact that the entire family are about to become homeless and that their father has been missing for months so how are viewers supposed to?
Even the fact that Tariq dated his sister failed to raise an eyebrow compared to the effigy-burning goings-on with Dennis and Sharon who arent even technically related.
It would be easy to suggest that the Albert Square residents dont care what they do because theyre Asian, but its actually because theyre so incredibly dull.
Only marginally more interesting, however, is the Dennis-Sharon-Den triangle that the writers keep plugging away at. As a viewer, its difficult to get worked up about Sharontella Versace and her idiot step-brother sleeping together especially as the original storyline was introduced about six months ago when Dirty Den first returned.
Den is trying to play the heavy father and has banned Dennis from contacting Sharon. You disgust me, hissed Den. Get back to wotever sewer you came from. Conveniently Den has forgotten of course that the sewer in question is actually his very own loins.
Dennis, being the mature, well-rounded adult that he is, has decided to get his own back by joining Andys (playground) gang.
Welcome to the family, Andy purred. Youre gonna fit right in. As Andy only seems to employ great useless hulks of wood, hes probably right.
Dennis first job is debt collection: Alfies fallen behind on his repayments on the loan he took out for Charlie.
Were not sure what tactics Dennis is going to employ, but knowing him, hell probably threaten to sleep with him unless he pays up.’
