Matthew looked a bit young though, but still had the weight advantage but Steve¿ Well at least he managed to kill her if he thought his life was really was in danger¡
@@vicvega24 Not necessarily, Steve had just took a blow to the head and would have been struggling to get any strength in his muscles at that point, concussion mentally frazzles mind and body. Matthew was an 18 year old lad with minor malnourishment, still a sleek frame at that age and nothing on him. Steve knew he was in danger and so went for the heavy object, life or death fight or flight at that point. Stupid how people are banged up for it ffs.
Linda Williams . Agreed! I'm behind on new episodes. Last I left off (1.5yrs?), his psychopath son is hero worshiping Steve. Still can't believe Mel went from that toad Ian to toad Steve to toad Phil. The writers ruined Mel's character for me lol.
It's not the fact that he ACCIDENTALLY killed Saskia whilst trying to DEFEND himself. But it's how he dealt with it and bullied and blamed Matthew relentlessly afterwards.
CONGRATULATIONS MARTIN KEMP FOR YOUR EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE AS AN ACTOR ON EASTENDERS !!! I SAW THIS SCENE WHEN I WAS WORKING IN ENGLAND (LONDON) !!!! YOU ARE A SUPERB ACTOR AND MUSICIAN AND DEEP IN MY HEART IS YOUR TOP SONG "TRUE" WITH YOUR BAND "SPANDAU BALLET" !!!!!!
This is still the most ridiculous death in this show. He gets hit with a bottle, and he's fine, but she gets hit with an ashtray and is instantly killed. Plus, it didn't even look like he hit her that hard lol
No, it's not rediculous at all! I've been hit over the head with an empty bottle outside a pub by some thug years ago, and although my head was bleeding a little, I was still concious and standing. If it had been a heavy glass ashtray I'd have probably hit the deck and been flat out.
And some people thought that Steve murdered Saskia when quite clearly, he killed her by accident. Come to think of it, when his character got hit on the head with the champagne bottle, Martin sure got lucky he didn't have a seizure, since apparently he has epilepsy. Unless, can getting hit on the head cause seizures?
it really made no sense why Steve wouldn't want to go to the police after this as he had CCTV footage that proved beyond a doubt that it was self defence so him going to the effort of covering it up and later framing Matthew was just dumb.
Lol I remember this, I used to fancy Saskia, it was a big mistake killing her at the time she had potential as a character . If they had kept her on for longer I think she could of been their best ever bitch. She had them qualities such as sassy but scary etc. Janine wouldn't of had to exist. Anyone agree?
The music playing in the club sounds awesome, and even sounds like it should be in a videogame like WipEout or something at times (and it probably was, for all I know.)
I don't think he did anything wrong she was virtually choking him so what he did was totally understandable but not with the intent of killing her obviously
How do YOU know a knock to the skull won't kill someone? Ever heard of the "eggshell skull" case and 'take your victim as you find them'? Someone could get a knock to the head and survive, someone else can get a knock to the head and die, because their skull/bone is softer than normal.
I think what happened was he didn't think that blow to the head would actually kill her, But it's nice to see Matthew try and protect Steve. I'm trying to watch this whole Steve Matthew storyline right from the start. But he does look quite Evil even at this point
Recently I had a dream where I met Martin Kemp on the streets. He seemed to be the opposite to Steve Owen with his 'bad guy' personality and was what Miss RihannaBritney described him as, a gentleman. We have some things in common; we play bass (well I sometimes play bass), we're co-operative, we both like The Simpsons (as he once stated in the Radio Times) and we both hate ironing (which he also stated in the RT).
this storyline made no sense they had CCTV recordings of everything that happened in this scene yet they went out of their way to keep the police from seeing them even tho it would prove that Steve acted in self defence so the whole cover up afterwards was completely unnecessary.
Love how two grown men couldn't overpower an 100lb drunk woman.
Harry Drake . Exactly what always puzzled me.

Saskia was just a wild animal
@@therebel4332 Amen to this. Fantastic analysis 👏
All that rage made Saskia strong 😂
The script was what made her strong.
Why man?
Martin Kemp always seems like such a nice guy in real life … goes to show what a great actor he is!
Killing Steve off was one of the dumbest moves Eastenders ever made.
Jay West He'll probably be back from the dead bow Mel's back. They always come back.
Look at his son he never knew about, Hunter Owen¡
They are all dead now. The Owens have been wiped out.
Subz Khan Bs!
what year was this filmed ?
That "CLONK" never gets old. xD
I could never understand how she hit HIM with a champagne bottle - and he was absolutely fine. Yet he hit HER with an ASHTRAY.. and she died.
No, he hit her with the "Ashtray of Doom." Made of 100% lead...
Ricky H Don't know but your avi is cute.😘😍
Ricky H Even worse, he barely hit her. It was more like a tap on the head lol!!!
That's some heavy weight cork in that ashtray
Jakey Jake. Not bad urself 😏
First ever scene I remember watching of EastEnders when I was about 10 👀
I still think it was self defence
Even Martin Kemp said it was self defence
It was just that he blamed it all on Matthew in court.
Yeah, but it was horrible he framed Matthew.
@@C.Church , Loved how Matthew got his revenge on Steve.
Linda Williams . Agreed!
I'm behind on new episodes. Last I left off (1.5yrs?), his psychopath son is hero worshiping Steve. Still can't believe Mel went from that toad Ian to toad Steve to toad Phil. The writers ruined Mel's character for me lol.
Over 20 years ago already. Time soars. Seems like only yesterday.
90s EE always 🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's not the fact that he ACCIDENTALLY killed Saskia whilst trying to DEFEND himself. But it's how he dealt with it and bullied and blamed Matthew relentlessly afterwards.
Valentine's Day 1999. This was the best episode of Eastenders ever. The 2nd best was when Peggy Mitchell punched Chrissy & she fell into Den's grave.
shayne sealy How was this the best episode? Nobody cared about Saskia.
I LOVED Steve's character! I miss the 90's EE.
That ashtray looked like it was made out of paper mache. LOL.
What a waste of an ashtray!! lol
I feel like i shouldn't laugh at Eastenders death scenes but i can't help it, they're so cringe lol
Chloe Lane Not as bad as Archie Mitchelle's with the Bust in that cheesey slow motion going over his head.😆
don't blame you for laughing crap acting
The ones where they fall down the stairs are the cringiest lmao
Anything they try to film in a big dramatic way looks fucking ridiculous. Looks like the editing team went on strike and left a child to work it out 😭
"I don't want this pressure on"..I don't want this pressure on "
He seriously couldn’t get her off without doing that? 😂 Steve really wasn’t a hard man at all
Self defense
There are millions of Saskia's out there theses days
The acting here is hilarious
CONGRATULATIONS MARTIN KEMP FOR YOUR EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE AS AN ACTOR ON EASTENDERS !!! I SAW THIS SCENE WHEN I WAS WORKING IN ENGLAND (LONDON) !!!! YOU ARE A SUPERB ACTOR AND MUSICIAN AND DEEP IN MY HEART IS YOUR TOP SONG "TRUE" WITH YOUR BAND "SPANDAU BALLET" !!!!!!
When EastEnders had great characters
one thine actor martin kemp, back when eastenders was quality. great storyline
*fine
wow you r so clever
Jon Dunne
*are
You forgot to put a full stop at the end of your comment.
The face at 2:57 when she dies is so scary
Awesome Death Face .
the smack with the bottle was a harder blow then with the ash tray
just a shame you don't hear music like this in clubs anymore. anyone know the name of the track playing? sounds very acid trance.
just thought the exact same thing, I feel 18 again.
Chris Heinrich Darude Sandstorm.
Chris Heinrich Because Trance is over.
Trance is not over, because all genres of music are eternal.
Back to the 90s. Now there's crappy pop songs with the n word everywhere
Poor Steve. Her death gave him a bad name.
Joe Stewart-Paul . His actions after gave him a bad name.
@@C.Church Janine Butcher got away with her actions. Still her name is not being "bad" by the fans. 💀😂
@@Compton-kh1xd This comment hasn't aged well.

Saskia handled herself pretty well against to men.
Oop, then she died.
Mel looks absolutely stunning !! ❤️💋💯
I really hate the face when someone dies, especially when its 10:34pm at night LOL
Um, how could that have even injured her let alone kill her considering that it was only a tap on the head. lol
That look was terrific 😂😂🇳🇬🇳🇬✅✅🥓🥓🍔🍔💪🏿💪🏿🎉🎉🔥🔥
“Your life is over” look how the tables have turned
BEST. EPISODE. EVER.
And some people thought that Steve murdered Saskia when quite clearly, he killed her by accident.

It was a prop.
@@jaggass , yep. Think it's called "sugar glass".
@@afton1955 That's used in films.
Saskia Duncan is beautiful and crazy at the same time. They shouldn't have killed her.
2:29 Saskia dog walking Steve never gets old 😂😂
it really made no sense why Steve wouldn't want to go to the police after this as he had CCTV footage that proved beyond a doubt that it was self defence so him going to the effort of covering it up and later framing Matthew was just dumb.
lol the ashtray got stuck to her head LMAO
one of my earliest memories of eastenders, this and irene cheating. I was 7
Lol I remember this, I used to fancy Saskia, it was a big mistake killing her at the time she had potential as a character . If they had kept her on for longer I think she could of been their best ever bitch. She had them qualities such as sassy but scary etc. Janine wouldn't of had to exist. Anyone agree?
well never know now...
Patrick Kennedy Janine was better. She was tv gold.
Janine existed before Saskia
98 murders in eastenders???? thats a bloody bad area.
100 in Hollyoaks.
I hope steve didnt get arrested for this because it was self defence, she was strangling him!
Steve and Matthew have a run in with xena warrior princess in the office.
The music playing in the club sounds awesome, and even sounds like it should be in a videogame like WipEout or something at times (and it probably was, for all I know.)
Steve I done nothing 😂😂😂
Steve didn't actually want him & Saskia to have a child so he got her to get an abortion & then he killed her & stitched Matthew up for killing her
He didn't mean to kill her though x
you can easilly tell how ANGRY steve was there
The good old days
Saskias my favourite
Saskia reminds me of Gwen Stefani in this somehow.
All i remember from this is someone getting hit by an ash tray. Watching again.
Woah that was sick!!!
Wow, the word bitch was used and no complaints.
Does anybody know what year this is in ? And month
Stone cold Steve Ashtray ...
Anyone know what is the song in the background in this?
classic!
she obsivously didnt have a skull and they just relised that...the end lool
I recall it at time first shown and was self defence even though it was treated as murder
Lol
I'm on Steve's side she forced him Into lashing out like that despite the fact that no man should ever beat a women it was self defence
2019?
Yip
She his him with a glass bottle and it's just ow
he hits her with a piece of wood and she instantly dies
logic
HOW THE FUCK DID SHE DIE FROM THAT LOL
I have a friend called saskia, she was named after her
Steve's hair did it for me.
I call that self defense she nearly killed him
I don't think he did anything wrong she was virtually choking him so what he did was totally understandable but not with the intent of killing her obviously
what was the music at the background can some1 tell me please
Very start of the scene Mel looks like Ronnie when she's holding the glass up.
What the hell? Hardly looked like he hit her and you can here the guy behind the camera shouting "hit!" to let her know when to fall.
the least convincing "smack" with an ashtray....u can see he only touches her with it....plus u can tell it's plastic lol
I remember him from the cray film lol.
BIG BUTTER SPOONS
"CLONK". xD
highlarious
2:02 LOL
anything can kill u
definitely 90s
She was better on Grand Designs 😂
lol she got laaamped with that ashtray, the gud ol eastender days.....

Mel is drop-dead gorgeous here!!! 🙂👌👌🙏🙏❤️❤️

I think it was self defence.
this is when eastenders was good
Saskia is better looking than Mel she had no need to be clingy but she became clingy¡
Is this an English soap opera
Saskia's acting was horrible
Poor saskia
Steve deserved better than Saskia!
Martin Kemp: ""I know this much is TRUE ....I didn't kill the bitch !""
Recently I had a dream where I met Martin Kemp on the streets. He seemed to be the opposite to Steve Owen with his 'bad guy' personality and was what Miss RihannaBritney described him as, a gentleman.
We have some things in common; we play bass (well I sometimes play bass), we're co-operative, we both like The Simpsons (as he once stated in the Radio Times) and we both hate ironing (which he also stated in the RT).
