Im glad chrissie got a happy ending. Den destroyed her mentally and she only killed him to protect herself. Everything she did after was so she wouldnt go to prison. She was never a truly evil character. Jake was always loyal to her and they were actually a really great iconic couple. This was the perfect ending for both characters. Nice bit of closure
A surprise return rare in soaps these days, the fact they've shown him means they'll probably return at some point. We all presumed he really was dead, especially as he'd been gone so long.
Nostalgia can be a nice little trip down memory lane but when it's overdone. I feel like there are so many current cast members not doing anything that in ten years time will we even care enough for them to make a comeback? And the Clenshaw has more old characters on the way is a sign of desperation at this point. They have guys like Ravi sitting there literally being underused in favour of nostalgia trips.
Makes me feel very nostalgic seeing this. I reckon Jake jumped out the car and ran away when the hitmen went after him. I hope they made his character a bit tougher after all the bs he went through after all he was a low rent thug. I bet Jake will be linked with Ruby. I reckon he’ll return and might have a few fueds.
@@H.K.5 Yh he was in a strong era full of alpha males like Den, Dennis, Phil, Grant, Johnny, Andy, Sean & Keith Miller. I don’t think he ever met Jack, that’d be a good fued 2 similar aged guys but Jack should beat Jake.
@@capitalhookmaster Jack would batter Jake tbh. Jake could handle himself but he was pretty average as a hardman and Jack beat Sean who was clearly levels above Jake.
Absolutely delighted after nearly twenty years that Jake has been revealed to be alive. I really hope he returns again soon and shares some scenes with Alfie, Stacey, Ruby etc.
@nickyhaugh2390 I'm hoping it's a teaser but they don't come back till after the 40th. Like do it as a sort of way of marking the next chapter of the show after the anniversary. Wishful thinking probably
Johnny never killed him anyway 😂 when Jonny died Jakes protection was gone from people him and Danny stole drugs off. Wished they brought Jake back for a longer stint
I never felt Jake's death gave Johnny another proper kill anyway since it would have just been accidentally instigated so it wasn't really a proper murder even by proxy its more similar to phil instigating Luke and Vincent's deaths by accident. so Johnny's murder count has always just been 6 as Jake would have just been a connected death tbh.
I would love to see them both back permanently in the next year or so. They surely know that a lot of fans want them back. Hopefully this is more of a teaser.
Cool to see Jake again and I'm Glad Chrissie was still released tho in a way I am also kinda disappointed that she's gone already. also people can finally stop trying to credit Johnny with Jake's death via some silly miscommunication with his cell mate 😂😂😂😂
So an almost 18 year mystery is solved and Jake Moon is alive. Like Harold Bishop in Neighbours in 1991, and in Easties Dirty Den in 1989, Jake's death was never 100% confirmed, whereas Kathy and Cindy's was confirmed at the time but rejigged to have them return from the dead. The fate of Dodge from Home And Away still remains a mystery. He had a clifftop fall with Steven Matheson in 1995 and Steven survived but Dodge was never seen again.
@@tomhiggins6542 He was nasty, the show's first real bad boy. Not watched Neighbours or H&A for years though. Den's return was good but did not last that long due to Leslie Grantham's dressing room antics.
Always wanted to know if he was alive or not and as soon as Chrissie called someone in prison as she was getting out I knew it was Jake and I’m just so glad he’s alive he was a great character shame that’s all we will see of him.
Who knows. Because Chris Clenshaw mostly gives the Fan's What they need. And now load of people be demonding for Jake and Chrissie to return. So who knows maybe they could be the new owners of the Vic for there 40th.
@@subhaan7861 aye that’s true mate who knows but with particularly Chrissie supporting Israel and having a feud with the actress that plays Suki I don’t see her return becoming a permanent one because it will most likely cause drama behind the scenes.
@@JoshuaDillon03 I do wonder how Jake got out of that situation in 2006, he was approached by a sinister man who asked him to confirm if he is Jake Moon. I guess Jake managed to talk them round or something.
Cameos do not equal good writing. Chris clemshaw thinks hes all that just because he brings back a few characters for only one or a few episodes. I swear this show is getting worse than coronation street. The chrissie return storyline was so disappointing.
This one moment aside her return been appalling. Questionable acting, self contained direction, cheesy dialogue, slapstick cheography and more outdated plot armour to protect writers darling Sharon.
I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chrissie Looks like she just come out of Hollywood then Prison. Actually looks like Jennifer Tilly in the end infact her Tiffany Valentine Character From Chucky 😂😂😂😂😂. With the Red Car driving off in the set really similar 😂😂😂😂.
Wow Jake Moon is alive and he grew a beard and I'm surprised but what if Paul Trueman faked his death and came back from the dead after trying to escape Andy Hunter and the hitman back in 2004.
@@H.K.5 Okay but I'm surprised when they found his body. It didn't show his face but Patrick seemed to identify him. Probably they couldn't show his face probably because the bullet in the head probably too violent for audiences to see.
@@H.K.5 That would not matter in today's EE as they bought Cindy and Kathy back. Den's death all those decades ago was never 100% confirmed so him coming back was plausible and many fans hoped that would happen. In regards to Jake Moon, he first appeared in late 2004 and Den was killed off in February 2005, I am sure they did interact once or twice.
@@H.K.5 your forgetting what show your watching here. Both Cindy & Kathys returns was beyond shocking and kind of made me wonder who's coming back next (Pete, Mark, Angie, Roly).
Chris Clenshaw has no originality, if he's not bringing back old characters he's copy pasting old stories like the six. I'm sorry but he is using the "40th anniversary" as an excuse to just think up nothing original
He’s probably the best thing to happen to eastenders. It’s never been the same since 2006 I feel like it’s coming back to life abit times have changed now this week was good
This is how a soap return should be, not them spoiling it months in advance.
Damn right
I didn't expect to see Jake again. I admit that I didn't even recognise Jake with beard at first.
That was a good way to end this, I liked how they narrowly missed Martin and Alfie too, wonder if that's a hint that we will see them again.
jake moon was the actual hero of the 'johnny allen' storyline. he saved phil and grants lives. they would be dead if it werent for him
@@lukethomasdillon3762 how on earth did Phil and Grant let Johnny and Dany over power them?
@@ashaulmiah5688 That storyline never made any sense. It was entertaining yes but also cartoonish and unrealistic.

Jake sounded controlling though when he told her to get in that car
@@alfiemoon2516 he was just being assertive
@@alfiemoon2516 Chrissie didn’t mind 😂
Phil owes Jake. That’s what will be used when/if Chrissie comes back and Phil makes his nonsense threats.
So glad hes alive, always loved Jake.

Ravi is well overdue some action, hopefully he has some feats and a return to form with Avani's new storyline.
Love it when soaps surprise us like this

Jake was always pretty tough to be fair and stood up to the likes of Phil, Grant and Sean. The only person he ever feared was Johnny.

I'm gonna be honest. If this is the last we see of JAKE and CHRISSIE, then this episode should've at least ended with Julia's Theme itself.
Which makes me think we'll see them again.
@@mione134 - So true, and hopefully that'll be sooner than later.
They say never say never after all.

YES!!! Jake Moon is alive, so happy.
So that drops Johnny's kills from 7 to 6. Good to see Jake back though despite it being brief and was good that they never leaked it.
Johnny never killed him anyway 😂 when Jonny died Jakes protection was gone from people him and Danny stole drugs off. Wished they brought Jake back for a longer stint
@@cfexplorations9583 His kill count has always been 6 considering Jake’s “death” was never confirmed.
@@H.K.5 Sort of yeah, it was kind of implied that he'd died but yeah was never flat out confirmed.
I never felt Jake's death gave Johnny another proper kill anyway since it would have just been accidentally instigated so it wasn't really a proper murder even by proxy its more similar to phil instigating Luke and Vincent's deaths by accident.
so Johnny's murder count has always just been 6 as Jake would have just been a connected death tbh.
I recall Johnny only killing one: Andy Hunter. Dennis was an order. He didn’t do it himself. Who are the other four?

This was a welcomed surprise! Always liked Jake Moon!
Great reveal, I know RandomUploads will be over the moon with this one 👀
I think he'll of found John Sugdens "phone the ambulance, phone the fire brigade and phone Cain Dingle" pretty funny too after last nites CGI Fire.
Well this was a nice surprise. I'm glad they were able to keep this quiet.
How Alfie comes out the vic just as jake drives off
Hope jake returns, shame he didn’t get a scene with Alfie
Cool to see Jake again and I'm Glad Chrissie was still released tho in a way I am also kinda disappointed that she's gone already.
also people can finally stop trying to credit Johnny with Jake's death via some silly miscommunication with his cell mate 😂😂😂😂
Holy shit Jake Moon is alive
Love Jake Moon 😍👑❤️🔥
Im suprised Jack Moon is back and I wonder what Phils recation will be if he saw them in the square 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
I wanna see Jake Moon vs Phil since Jake is alive
Phil and Jake were friends. Him and Grant looked out for Jake after he saved their lives.
Jake would kick phil’s arse nowadays
@@Dan-xl9de Neither Phil or Grant ever cared about Jake, they just had to make sure he didn’t go to the police.
He is still 🔥
no julias theme must mean that they’ll return for the 40th anniversary
Wow! How on earth did Jake get himself out of that situation all those years ago?
Maybe the hitman had a brother who shot him to protect a complete stranger

might be best Dodge stays lost, wasn't a very nice man (although he did beat nonce Mud to death).

Great scene!
swear she in on probation for life and wont be able to leave the country
I had a feeling when she was on phone in her cell wondering where they'll spend the rest of their lives together shame they didn't come back for good
Oh my god! I knew he was alive

his writing and direction is very self contained to say the least. You don't mind this in moderation but not left, right & centre.
