Minutes ago this conversation in Eastenders:
-You make me sound like an old bloke going on about the war.
-Next thing you'll be telling me how great The Smiths were.
-At least you know who Morrissey is. It shows your education wasn't completely wasted.
-Of course I know, he's an old geezer waving a daff.

of this one time (I think it was on Coronation Street, but I'm not sure?)... They were talking and this one guy was complaining and whining a lot and then this lady goes "You sound like a cracked record, and a Morrissey one at that" or something! It was pretty cute!

          The Queen Vic seems to play a lot of Smiths or Moz songs on the jukebox. Somebody behind the scenes at the BBC likes Mozza. I used to like Brookside, he appeared in that.

          R: Free myself? Why dont you worry about freeing yourself?
          S: You saying I'm fat?

            Which days Eastenders was this? And which characters were involved? I've just skimmed through the tape of Mondays episode and couldn't find anything!

            I saw this episode. I know Shaun Duggan (scouse kid who was on the South Bank Show in 87, and also got to interview Moz for The Tube that same year) was a writer for Eastenders. I don't know if he still is. Either was, it was not his name at the ending credits but he still may have something to do with the Moz related stuff on that show.

            Shame Eastenders a pile of crap, with crap characters and stupid plots.

              on Eastenders here in the U.S. This week Barry had his 40th birthday, Sharon Watts had a showdown with Peggy over the Queen Vic. and her affair with Phil, and Jim stole money from his granddaughter to take Dot on holiday.

              I've been watching since what, 1989, and they aren't even going to mention Morrissey for another five years?

              I've wasted my life.

              If Moz did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.
