How did he get a role on Eastenders?
 
He's convincing was horrible. Ashleigh did the best job. How did he get a role on Eastenders when he's such a crap actor?

probably through BB, he only was an extra so I suspect endemol/esltree got him the job as there filmed in the same place.

It was a defining thing for his character that he was good looking, in his first episode Sharon tried to convince Johnny to flirt with Curtis and that he was good looking, so that's probably why lol

same reason he got on big brother. he has media connections. nearly all the housemates do. we are not watching checkout girls, bricklayers and call centre employees. we are watching journalists actors and friends of Rylan.

It's easy to get extra work.

I've done it. I'm just an ordinary guy but always when I've been on set I see the dolled up girls, the made up BOYS (WTF), all hoping they'd get talent spotted.

It's laughable.

He was an extra... hardly requires acting talent.

flamingGalah! 25-06-2014 03:28 PM

He's not an actor though is he, he's a supporting artist (extra) he barely had two lines in EastEnders lol...

ImBatman 25-06-2014 03:30 PM

It's not really a role though is it!?!?! He was also an extra in Kickass 2!

Nedusa 25-06-2014 03:43 PM

Well now he's on T.V everyday and can speak all he wants...unfortunately for him he is one of the dimmest HM ever to appear on BB.

I think his IQ is a negative number, I've seen things lying at the bottom of ponds with more intelligence.

he makes Brian Belo look clever and that is saying something............

daniel-lewis-1985 25-06-2014 03:56 PM

He was only an extra hardly Oscar winning acting skills needed especially when you look at Sharron lol shes like some damsel in distress from a 1950,s romantic epic drama.

The other regular extras are far worse actors, like shockingly bad. Ive tried to get on there but its so in demand.

Oh and obviously Tracey the barmaid is left out of the worst extras comment seeing as she is awesome. Didn't they give her a little story once? She had a few lines and showed her going home and everything. I was gripped lol.

Being an extra doesn't make someone a media ***** or have "contacts" ive been an extra in proper high profile stuff and I don't class myself particularly in touch with the big wigs in media.

Brian Belo is very clever though, he just played on the thick act because the public love thick people.

Pete. 25-06-2014 03:57 PM

Cringey mess tbh

Really........well he had me fooled, cos even when he appeared on BOTS he still acted "thick"

What a professional he is.......:spin:

They showed Tracy going home? :umm2:

The only story I remember her having was Phil mentioning he'd shagged her and when Sam attacked her in the toilets. :joker:

Your sig.

Don't know why Brit thought it would be a good idea to put those screens there to look like mirrors when they just make her look chubby.

Don't get me wrong I love the tits of the girl but that was a bad move.

He was on some show a few years back and I cant remember the name of but he came across very intelligent.

The thick thing really is an act.

Crimson Dynamo 25-06-2014 05:23 PM

is it because Eastenders is swill for the lower classes?

Jemal 25-06-2014 06:00 PM

I have no idea why he got the role actually.
Usually when you only get to say lines like "course sharon" and "bye" and "yea" you need to have amazing acting skills along with juliard acting degree, so yes i have no idea why he was giving a role as an extra.

armand.kay 25-06-2014 06:04 PM

You don't even really need to know how to act to work on East Enders as a main character let alone as an extra.
