First appearance	28 January 1986

Classification	Former; guest
Profile
Occupation	Drag queen

John Fisher was a drag queen hired by publican Angie Watts in January 1986 to perform for the premier drag night at The Queen Vic. Following the publicity over Angie's drink driving case, she and her husband, Den, worried that the brewery who owned the Vic might find cause to cancel their tenancy, and 'free entertainment' was seen as a way to bolster the evening trade.

The first drag night was a roaring success until Pete Beale started heckling the performer. John mistook Pete's intent, thinking he wanted to join in with the act. John playfully took Pete's pint on-stage and Pete leapt after it, causing a tussle to ensue. Seconds later, Den found himself on the floor untangling the pair. The surprise arrival of Den's mistress, Jan Hammond, prompted Den to close the pub early, so the act was halted prematurely.

Sharon Watts was quite impressed with the drag artiste and thought him to be a caring and sensitive person. When he mentioned that his other job was delivering 'kiss-o-grams', she hatched a plan for starting her own business. John performed several more drag evenings in The Vic. His last appearance was on 27 February 1986.

Family Husband Dario Chimisso (1987-) Cousins Nigel Russell

Janet "Jan" Hammond, played by Jane How, appeared in 1986 as the long-term mistress of "Dirty" Den Watts. Jan was a posh upper-class sort of woman and worked at an art gallery. Den had been having an affair with her while he was still married to Angie Watts. She was always hated by Angie and Den's adopted daughter Sharon Watts but she tried her best to get along with her. She moved into the Queen Vic at one point with Den's insistence but wasn't much of a landlady so moved out soon after.

Den tried to leave Angie for Jan so he told Angie he was leaving her. Angie grew desperate and in order to stop him from leaving her she lied to him by saying she had six months to live. Den believed her but discovered many months later that she had been lying while they were on holiday in Venice. In one of EastEnders most famous storylines he divorced her on Christmas Day 1986.

Eventually Jan grew tired of Den not having a proper relationship with her so she ended their affair after he refused to leave Walford with her. She left Walford in 1987 and then went on to marry a man called Dario Chimisso on a gondola in Venice.

She made a brief return in 2002 for Angie's funeral. She had returned to give Sharon a portrait that Den had left with her many years earlier.

She briefly returned again in 2003 in a lead-up to Den's return 14 years since he had been shot and presumed dead by an employee of the gangland organisation The Firm. Den's long lost son Dennis Rickman had tracked Jan down and she revealed that Den had survived the shooting and came to her for help. With her help, Den was able to flee to Spain to protect himself and his family.

Brad Williams

Brad Williams
EastEnders character
Portrayed by	Jonathan Stratt
Duration	1986–89
First appearance	4 March 1986
Last appearance	23 February 1989
Profile
Occupation	Gangster

Brad Williams is a fictional character in the BBC soap opera EastEnders. He was played by Jonathan Stratt. Brad was a mobster heavy for the East End gangster organization known as The Firm. He was of low importance within the organization and was generally used as an errand boy. He was first seen in March 1986 and over the next two years he would show up occasionally to inform Den Watts (who was working in league with the Firm) of his bosses orders.

Towards the end of 1987 Brad was instructed to scare graphic designer, Colin Russell, who was a jury member in a trial for an associate of the Firm. Brad and Den put pressure on Colin to give a verdict of 'not guilty' at the trial, and when he refused Brad stole his keys and vandalized his flat, causing all sorts of problems for Colin.

During 1988 Brad was seen more frequently, turning up to aid the running of the Firm's business in Walford, Strokes winebar, which was being managed by Den and was really a front for an illegal gambling den. The petty criminal Darren Roberts managed to get on the wrong side of Brad when he tried to play him off against the owner of The Dagmar, James Wilmott-Brown. The Firm's money lending business, 'Walford Investments', were in the process of securing the take over of James' ailing winebar, albeit against his wishes. Darren, sensing an opportunity, promised to provide James protection against the Firm, whilst all the while attempting to get onto the Firm's payroll via Brad. Incensed by Darren's audacity, Brad took him aside and gave him a severe beating, and Darren left Walford shortly after.

In July 1988, Den discovered Kathy Beale after she had been raped by James Wilmott-Brown, and instantly sought revenge. He demanded retribution from his contacts within the Firm, Brad and Joanne Francis, and was enraged when they refused to act. Den managed to persuade Brad to help him anyway by conning him into thinking that James' downfall would please his bosses, and Den watched with glee as the Dagmar burnt down in flames. However the resulting police investigation put the Firm's business in serious jeopardy. They then decided that in order to put a halt to the investigation either Brad or Den had to take the blame for the arson attack. Neither Brad or Den was willing to take the blame, and both were then involved in a personal war to persuade the other to take the rap.

Brad immediately called on the services of Rod Norman (via threats), and forced him to give the police a tip off about Den. The police began questioning Den and realising that he had gotten in way over his head, he decided that he would accept the blame for the arson, but instead of serving time in prison, he decided to flee the country to avoid arrest. The Firm agreed to this and Den was taken into hiding. However the Firm subsequently set up a hit on Den, which failed when he escaped custody and turned himself into the police to avoid the Firm's heavies.

As the Firm busied themselves with ways in which to silence Den from inside, Brad caused more grief by doing a bit of moonlighting; breaking into several people's houses on the Square with an accomplice who worked as a cab driver for Ali Osman. The burglaries resulted in a greater police presence in the area. The Firm were not impressed and Gregory Mantel — a superior member of the Firm — threatened Brad with serious repercussions should his deviance continue. Brad stopped the burglaries, but his accomplice continued without him and was eventually caught by the police and was quick to implicate Brad. The investigating officer, D.I. Ashley, decided to use this piece of information to manipulate the dimwitted Brad. He threatened to put him in prison unless he acted as an informant. Brad was forced to relay information on The Firm. Strokes was closed down as a result and various members of the Firm were arrested. With the Firm under threat from the police, Gregory Mantel decided that Den had to be the informant and made arrangements to have him eliminated.

On the day of Den's trial, Mantel's heavies broke Den out of custody and took him to the Firm's headquarters, where he was greeted by Brad. Brad imprisoned him in a room to await the arrival of Mantel. However, Den was not about to go down without a fight and knowing how easily influenced Brad was, he made one last attempt to secure his freedom. He played upon Brad's fears, relaying that he had heard that Brad was to be the next victim on the Firm's hit-list. Brad was easily swayed and he decided to help Den escape. He lured the other gang member, Marco, into the cell where an awaiting Den jumped him and threw him to the floor, whilst Brad locked him up in Den's place. The two then escaped from the headquarters, and Brad sped off in his car, leaving Den to fend for himself.

Brad immediately went to the police and handed himself in. He promised to confess everything he knew regarding the arson, Den, and the Firm. Meanwhile, Mantel, who was furious with Brad's betrayal, tracked Den down, he was shot and presumed dead for over 14 years. However he returned to Walford in 2003, revealing that he had faked his own death to secure his survival. It was also revealed that a man named Brad had been charged for the arson attack of the Dagmar. Subsequently, Den was no longer wanted by the police.

Charlie Cotton

Main article: Charlie Cotton

Charles "Charlie" Cotton was played by Christopher Hancock. Charlie was a semi-regular character, introduced in March 1986 as the estranged husband of Dot Cotton. He appeared in stints until producers made the decision to kill the character off-screen in 1991, to aid development of characters connected to him. June Brown, who plays Dot, was openly against the killing of Charlie. Charlie appeared one last time, in October 2000, as an apparition, warning his son Nick to change his ways.

James Willmott-Brown

He and Debbie later had a fling, but it didn't progress into anything serious. Pat Wicks took a shine to him and tried seducing him on several occasions, but was rebuffed each time.

The character was born in the serial, conceived in a controversial storyline about teenage pregnancy. She is the daughter of original characters Michelle Fowler and Den Watts. She was written out in 1995, after the actress who played Vicki's mother decided to leave the soap. After an 8 year absence, she was reintroduced by Executive Producer Louise Berridge in 2003 as a rebellious teenager. Her reintroduction was part of the soap's attempt to rebuild the Watts clan, a successful family, headed by Den, that featured prominently in the 1980s. Johnson quit the role in 2004. The media was generally critical about the character upon her return due to her American accent and its sudden disappearance. During the character's original stint, a storyline featuring Vicki being kidnapped was criticised due to its coincidental airing alongside the non-fictional abduction and murder of toddler James Bulger.

Carmel Jackson

She was featured in storylines about domestic violence and various family and career upsets. Jacob remained in the role until 1989, when she opted to leave.

He was also a member of the Walford Allotments where he competed with Arthur Fowler in the growing of leeks and marrows. He managed to win first prize for the best leeks at the Walford & District Allotment Society Show, when he actually stole them from Arthur — the leeks he had been hoping to enter were damaged by Roly the poodle the night before the competition.^[8]

After his sister died, Tom sought the female company of Dot Cotton and Pat Wicks, but Dot remained faithful to her marriage vows and Pat thought Tom too old for her boisterous lifestyle.^[9]

Profile
Occupation	General Practitioner

Doctor Jaggat Singh first arrived in Albert Square in November 1986. He was employed by Dr. Harold Legg to cover the surgery for him several days a week.

Naima Jeffery showed a romantic interest in Jaggat and they went on several dates. Naima's cousin Rezaul Gabir was furious as Jaggat was a Sikh and Naima was Muslim and he tried to provoke Jaggat into a fight in The Queen Vic one night. However, Jaggat just laughed off Rezaul's aggression and they eventually became friends. In the end nothing serious ever developed between Jaggat and Naima anyway, as Naima ended the relationship to marry Farrukh - a suitor from Bangladesh.

Having Lou Beale, Ethel Skinner and Dot Cotton as patients sharpened his interest in the elderly and Jaggat left the Square in December 1987 for full-time work with old people in a Northern home. Shortly before leaving, he persuaded Ethel to move into sheltered housing at Prosper Estate.

Barry Clark

Main article: Barry Clark (EastEnders)

Barry Clark was played by Gary Hailes. Barry was a cockney barrow-boy, and an unlikely partner for the gay, middle classed yuppie, Colin Russell. He was much younger than his middle-aged boyfriend and as such Colin's role was almost paternal. Barry was open about his sexuality to everyone except his volatile father — and when he was finally told he took the news so badly that Barry turned straight just to appease him — although he was never very successful at it.

Rezaul Gabir

Rezaul Gabir
EastEnders character
Portrayed by	Tanveer Ghani
Duration	1986–88
First appearance	11 December 1986
Last appearance	7 January 1988
Profile
Occupation	Shopkeeper
Family Cousins Naima Jeffery

Rezaul Gabir arrived in Albert Square in December 1986. He was Naima Jeffery's cousin and had been sent by Naima's family to help her run her grocery store, First Til Last. Naima was extremely angry about Rezaul's arrival, but her family were adamant that he had to stay, so she begrudgingly put up with his presence.

Rezaul was rather bossy, pretentious, chauvinistic and arrogant, and instantly tried to take over the running of the shop. On his first night, Rezaul put forth a scheme to increase the shop's profits and asked for a month's trial. Naima agreed to the trial. Rezaul then proceeded to mark up the shop's items to unreasonably high prices as well as steal money from the till. Naima was furious and to make matters worse it soon became clear that Rezaul had amorous intentions towards her. Naima wasn't remotely interested in Rezaul so she set about finding herself a new boyfriend to put him off. She started dating the Square's new doctor, Jaggat Singh. Rezaul, a Muslim, became very envious when he saw them together and told Naima that she was making a fool of herself, smiling and fawning over a Sikh. This culminated in Rezaul trying to pick a fight with Dr. Singh in The Queen Vic one night, almost getting himself barred in the process.

In April 1987, Naima and Rezaul got into a shouting match when he told her that her family had decided she had to marry him. He was furious when she flatly refused, but later admitted that he was actually relieved and told her he didn't want to marry her either. Naima's defiance displeased her family and they subsequently broke all ties with her. Rezaul, it seemed, was rather impressed with Naima and told her that she was no ordinary Bengali girl as he'd first thought.

Things between Naima and Rezaul improved after this, and when Naima's family eventually sent over another of her cousins for her to marry, he went out of his way to help their blossoming romance. After Naima left England to live in Bangladesh, Rezaul ran The First Til Last in her place for a while. Whilst managing the shop, he caught Charlie Cotton shoplifting and made a citizen's arrest. Charlie then had to appear at the Magistrates' Court and was given a hefty fine. When Naima's family sold the shop to Ashraf Karim at the end of the year, Rezaul left Walford to resume his studies. His last appearance was January 1988.
