    He's always been a really good actor. In fact many good actors have worked on Eastenders over the years. I guess the only problem is, Adam Woodyat can only play Ian Beale. The character is so well known and synonamous with him, he couldn't do much else. The same probably goes for Steve McFadden. Again, an excellent actor, but forever Phil Mitchell.

    You've all got to understand Pete Beale was an old-school Cockney man, and while I don't agree with his sentiments, I see where he's coming from. In those days real men had 'manly' jobs, and even in the 80's many people still associated cooking with women. Yes, The Ipcress File and Man About the House/Robin's Nest changed popular opinion, but Pete needed more convincing.
