This is how every parent should react to their children coming out, with love, patience and understanding.
They should tell them to like women instead of being a dirty butterboy
Question Everything like you ?
People should be allowed to be gay but I think it's wrong that they have a big song and dance about it that's why there's homophobes
@@danielthedemonlister519 Homophobia has been around for as long as racism and anything else associated with people being different from the majority. With everything else going on in someone's head when they are coming to terms with being homosexual, or bisexual, or anything else, why should they be discriminated against? Why should anyone have to be picked on, bullied, beaten, denied the right to the rights that you have as a straight person just because of who they are as a person? That is why people make a song and dance about it, so that people can have the same quality of life that straight people are automatically entitled to. Why should it be any other way, we are all human, we are all here through no fault of our own.
@@callum3399 bruh this is why no one loves you.
Sadly, for many people, it doesn’t happen like this.
True
Unfortunately
True
Just-James good
Yea
Mick is an awesome dad
Marshall Carwood Lol are you okay?
tom green r/wooosh
Here yes but after this, it’s all As Aunt Babe puts it “LINDA LINDA LINDA”. He sides with her over their kids when she’s the one on the wrong. He treated Nancy and Lee like shit over and accident and Nancy especially was treated appaullingly at that time by him and he didn’t support Lee with his depression unlike Lee who is helping his dad.
I think the early months of their time, Mick is a good dad, then things just become all about him and Linda.
@@SweetAeromotion yeah he’s a supportive father
YOU ARE 100 PERCENT RIGHT.
"So you're the one we should've called Nancy..."
Oh Mick 😂
@@FlorentlynnOfficial I think that family were just a very comedic one and he wanted to make Johnny laugh and that was the easiest joke he could make. I fully agree with your point but I think it's not meant to be taken seriously in this context
@@kizzybird1208 yeah... perhaps but as usual these stupid jokes are always happening on gay guys and I gotta say this is tiering. Period
Yeah I agreeeee 🙏🏻
@@FlorentlynnOfficial bro when i came out me and my dad were cracking jokes the whole night about it
@@FlorentlynnOfficial I think Mick was trying to lighten the atmosphere with a joke Jonny was really emotional so he made a joke to lighten things up
This really captures the crushing shame of admitting being gay really well. Something that never seems to change.
@Marshall Carwood LMFAOO you're joking, right?
jordan joking about what?
No shame in it tho
I thought they captured the self-loathing and internalised homophobia of being in the closet extremely well, the boy could barely speak except to say “it’s unnatural, it’s wrong”...showing how torn he is between who he is and what society says someone should be. The father did great.
Hopefully with the right messaging and acceptance in time kids won’t feel shame
It’s sad because even when there’s no homophobia in the house, children who are gay get the message “it’s wrong” real fast. Because no one in the house is talking about it. The schools don’t talk about it. They hear homophobia from their peers. Period. Talk about it! We are finally having an open dialogue so all this pain and suffering that’s been going on for hundreds of years Regarding sexuality will finally fade out. There’s no room for this sort of fear and ignorance in the golden age ;)
True, why don’t we just teach that love is something good
It is wrong
@@dakidtg you have a ways to go on your spiritual journey brother. If you don't get it in this life, you'll repeat it in the next.
@@RodneyDodson ??
@@dakidtg it’s really not love😘
I’ve never seen this show in my life and have no idea who these characters are, but my heart just broke for that young man and I think his Father is an exceptional man for loving and supporting his son like this. He did everything right here. Well done to this show and these actors for such a powerful and important scene.
It’s eastenders
"Eastenders" its a UK soap drama based in a small street on the East end of london
EastEnders has a habit of doing that - delivering exceptional scenes in sometimes less-than storylines. Nothing short of breathtaking and underrated acting from many of the cast.
"I know that being gay isn't a choice. It's within you, it's who you are..." I love that line. I do not watch this show, or know about these characters, but that is such a beautiful line. Someone gets it. ❤
Phenomenal acting on this scene. Great job.
Aww X
This is heartbreaking no one should be ashamed of being themselves, x
Jimmy saville should
@@lfcwilli Omg, just saw this, you've basically made the same point as me. 😂
@Marshall Carwood But that would happen with a woman as well.
Marshall Carwood People can’t help being gay though.
@Marshall Carwood Go take your homophobia else where
Hoping that in 10-20 years that being gay or bi is so normalized that people no longer need to come out. Where people wouldn't care at all.
Never gonna happen.
@@binghamguevara6814 Never say never, only time will tell. It might take longer. We are currently living in a mixed emotion era: some oppose it, some embrace it, some are indifferent and don't care. At some point there will be a majority of people are either in favor or indifference about it. Look at biracial dating and marriages, there were a lot of opposition to hit in the early 20th century.
@john davis Are there people who give you grieve or think you are weird about being a dr pepper fan?
It will always be stigmatised.
john davis Thats not what I said though is it? I know it’s more accepted amongst the general population but it is still heavily stigmatised and always will be, most people aren’t gay and that is precisely why it will always be stigmatised.
They handled the realism of this happening very well
My dad's reaction was to say 'thank god for that, I thought you were going to say you'd got someone pregnant'
I am crying here!!! Johnny's tears were really authentic and they reminded me of when my parents forced me to come out, but instead of accepting me, they turned their backs on me.
JOHNNY'S TEARS ARE MORE REALISTIC.
I’m so sorry they did that to you!! You deserve better, hope you’re doing great
@@sashaking1115 Thank you.
@@fmaximo1979 you’re welcome ❤️❤️
My parents did the same, it really sucks. Hope things are better.
This was the scene that made me realise I wasn't straight at 17.
I wish they'd bring this Johnny back, the other actor was good but Sam strike did the character great, plus he was cuter
Marshall Carwood you sound like you’re in denial, hahaha.
Weeping Angel us gays always did, and gays always will exist. Your tears just fuel us 😘😍🤷🏻♀️
Marshall Carwood yeah mate it seems like your hiding something from yourself. Maybe go take a look in the mirror. Something tells me your gay and in denial of it.
WyseBoi lmao you sound like an A level psychology student. Thinks he knows everything, yet knows nothing
Sean Lennon No its called wanting grandchildren. Something you will NEVER be able to give your parents. Ever.
Haven't watch Eastenders for years and years but have to say this was really well done. Fair play.
Yeah, definitely was a powerful scene in the show
Definitely one of the most heartwarming scenes in the show last decade
This is how a real parent should be with having a gay child!! If people don’t respect gays that’s just wrong
The clip of the mom crying at the end is powerful. Realistic.
It's actually a very interesting dynamic as it's the mum that doesn't accept him first of all and they end up falling out, but she grows to accept him.
Thanks. I was wondering about that. I thought I saw some "I've effed up" in her tears.
Love it when he calls Johnny the brains of the outfit lol
That was some serious 'ugly crying'. Well done! An excellent performance.
This might genuinely be my favourite coming out scene of all time, it is so well written and acted
Danny Dyre has been superglued into that shirt and is unable to bend or move at all
This scene with Mick and Johnny and Arthur coming out to Nicola on Emmerdale are two of the most loving and heartwarming pieces of tv on the soaps.
Danny dyer... This is when I started to love u more. I like u before in your gangster movies and dramas but in this soap there was something special about u and ur performance and ur character mick. Love it. And u will be miss forever now u have left the show. Respect mate. X
Beautifully portrayed by both actors and so heart felt. Well done to both writers and actors 😊😊☺
Don’t you dare say there is anything unnatural about you. You are my son. Danny this is proudest moment pivotal moment of your acting career again thank you for portraying this so genuine, heartfelt. By doing this one thing alone showing acceptance acting or not you have saved the lives of millions of lgbt+ people made their lives better. This is a legacy that will forever be remembered. Thank you!!! 🏳️🌈❤️❤️
I just came out 3 days before to my parents, and they hugged me and cried. They accepted me for who I am.
I remember watching this scene when it first aired and I cried. As a gay man myself it’s very emotional but so real
Michael Keates batty boy xx
Society must stop thinking heterosexuals are the only type of sexuality that is normal. As long as NO one is getting hurt or against their will, sex is normal for consenting adults!
Naz izi what a sad life you lead
Naz izi is that the best you’ve got. After years of fighting for rights, “ batty boy “ is no big deal. So keep going whilst we keep on laughing right back at you
@@nazizi1696 aww how sweet of you! So funny. Ha👏ha👏ha👏
You know, no matter how much HATE you lot say, it's not gonna make anybody less gay.
1:20 that moment when there’s no going back
"Your the brains of the outfit" beautiful and moving
What a great Dad.
My mum told me from the age of 3 that if I grew up gay she'd always love me.
She told it me loads as I grew up and I still felt so ashamed when I told her at 16. I dunno why
closet tingz
This is so powerful. But it's also so beautiful. This is parenting done right.
Powerful! This is what real love is about. I wish my coming out was like this, but sadly it wasn't.
Mick is hot. That's all I'm gonna say
@Cuong Dang do you mean Mick or Johnny?
@@lolagraham8013 Mick. Well I'm not interested in his son 😂
The actor Danny Dyer played a gay teen in Bristol Boy m.imdb.com/title/tt0221838/
I had this conversation with my dad the other day and it was literally identical to this and omg it feels great to see this being represented my dads thinks makeup with men and stuff is a bit ‘weird’ but he said to me I love you no matter what just be you😊
Art by James Butler You’re dad sounds wonderful.
Genghis Smith he really is I couldn’t wish for a better dad even though he finds it a bit weird he tries his best to adapt and accept it he’s been really really supportive😊
@@artbyjamesbutler3259 hi I've been looking on your account and your art is really good you're really underrated
not spider woman thank you, I don’t get many compliments at all so I really appreciate it. You’re the kinda people that make me want to continue and stay motivated so I give all my gratitude to you😊
Hug that man and never let him go. He sounds like a lovely dad.
The most beautiful and sensitive and emotional coming out. Bravo to the dad!
And Johnny is such a really lovely person who has the highest of morals.
As a Gay man myself, I got really emotional watching this
@@cjk2922 You think you're big and hard? Knobhead 😂
🌈🌈🌈
@@cjk2922 Nonce is a term for a paedophile, not a homosexual. Get your facts straight!
As a straight man, so did I. Took me back to when one of my best mates came out to our group of friends a few years back. We already knew. We hugged him, then went right back to drinking and taking the piss out of each other
This was one of the best acting scenes from EastEnders which I’m sure resonated with so many young men and women and parents. Certainly did for me. Danny Dyer and Sam Strike played this so well.
This scene is adorable and very well acted
One of my biggest regrets in life was telling my Dad. If I could turn back time, I never would have said a word. Been about 20 years now.
Andy Jacobs That is so sad. But you had to tell him, otherwise your life would have been a lie. If my dad were still alive I would ask him why he couldn’t accept that part of my life....the part which eventually gave me true happiness with someone I love dearly.
This lowkey resonates with me because it really do be like that
Micks face in the thumbnail reads out oh boy. Lmao.
Mick is a great dad
This scene is years old, but worth revisiting.
I remember this story line and how good it was written and acted I had the pleasure of meeting Sam and congratulate him on such wonderful performance and what a great inspiration for young people who are going through the same thing and coming out to family and friends he real was a nice guy to chat to
Even though the acting is not the best (my opinion), I felt this. I remember breaking down like this when I came out and DAMN that felt good to let it out
I will never forget this moment! I'm already a fan of the Carters but here beautiful ❤
God how I wish I had parents like that!
Parenting 101 done perfectly!!!! this is real love!!
Heart wrenching acting. So much emotions. And lovely segue at the end
I wish I had a dad like mick he’s so cool and so very understanding
Absolutely brilliant acting here. Very real, very raw, very East end. Also, very moving.
People need to be shown this clip. What an a amazing scene between these two
This is genuinely one of my favourite scenes of the show 😍😍
Post more old videos they are nostalgic
Every parent should react like this when their child comes out 🥺
That was such a heartwarming scene
Beautifully acted. Love the Carter family. Definitely one of my favourites. ❤
And it seems like just yesterday that he was glued to the telly watching Superman and Batman. 😢
I just broke when Johnny started Crying. But his Mother was the one having trouble. Usually it’s the other way around.
Thats just an assumption that mothers are more accepting of gay children. There was story on Long Lost Family years ago where a woman went looking for her brother who had been disowned for being gay and the brother said his father seemed more accepting of him but his mother basically couldn't accept him and threw him out and told him to never contact them again.
@@wickedwitchoftheeast88 It just proves that there are women who are homophobic towards gay men.
this wormed my heart
People need to understand that sexuality doesn't equal to attitude or lifestyle. You can be gay and highly masculine and still like masculine things 🙄 🙄 🙄
And I think that's the beauty of this scene. Mick doesn't know everything about being gay, what it entails, and he may be misinformed about certain aspects. But that doesn't stop him from accepting his son for who he is. Him getting some of the facts wrong isn't the most important part of the scene. It's that even though he's working from a few incorrect assumptions, those don't define his relationship with his son. The details are irrelevant to him because he loves his boy more than anything. That's beautiful to me.
Absolutely. Homophobic idiots will always believe that, due to their incredibly narrow way of thinking, that all gay men are effeminate sissies and queens. They just cannot or won't accept the fact someone's sexuality does not automatically determine who they are as a person.
Awww that’s really cute❤️❤️
Sam Strike was so good as Johnny
He was hot too xx
I wish there wasn't such a phobia of saying I'm proud of you... to family members
“Mickey” 😂
One of my all time favourite scenes. They handled it beautifully
Powerful scene. The actor who plays the father is so damn good.
This is realy brilliant mick amazing Acting Danny .Even jhonny well done.brilliant
All parents regardless of your background should embrace there children who come out. Don’t watch this but this was quite emotional. Well done
This Johnny was so fit 😍
This broadcast just after I came out to my parents, and Johnny fits my own personal characteristics in certain ways (gay, first in the family to go to uni, born in the same year I was, working-class background, etc). I didn't see this when it was first on, but it is an emotional video for me personally, haha.
That cry of pain is exactly what I did…sad…
I thought he came out ages ago
Jasmine F this was 2014 lol
One thing I liked about mick when Linda and or his kids were upset he was there for them to comfort them
Fantastic acting from Sam Strike and Danny Dyer 💓💓
TRUE INDEED.
The crying kinda reminded me of myself... which made me laugh lol...
Parenting done right
the lady came out heard the conversation maybe cry because that honestly cute
This is so real! Wow
Wish Danny Dyer was my dad i literally cried all through this episode when johnny came out so powerful and moving as I know cause I am gay myself it isn't easy coming out and I got bad remarks for coming out brilliantly acted and really miss seeing danny dyer in EastEnders please bring him back ❤❤❤❤
Danny Dyer is a wonderful actor, thank you for this man
I have anxiety and panic attacks and flashbacks PTSD because of my past and I have two panic attacks everyday at school and one at home ones a day
Johnny is 😻
Beautiful. I wish I got this response.
Wowww Mick and Linda's room used to be so plain 😂😂
Aw Jonny i will be there for you 💕
THE DAD PLAYED A GAY CHARACTER WHEN HE WAS YOUNG HE WAS SO CUTE
So sweet 😔😔
This helped me in my coming out last year. And my parents were happy with it. Brilliant acting from Danny Dyer and Sam Strike. Well done eastenders
I feel blessed, my parents kissed me and held me and said it made no difference. ❤❤😢😢
Mick is a fantastic father
"I just want you to know you can tell me anything"
*son actually confesses to murdering someone*
That would actually be pretty interesting too.
I miss This Johnny so much! 😔
The second actor was dreadful. Couldn’t act to save his life!
watching back and i still can’t get why linda was crying at the end lol😂
I wish my dad reacted in such a supportive way.
I wish my parents would be like this
So you're the one we should have called Nancy... hahaha...
