Gay Players?

Which players that have been on the show were referred to as being gay. Which had "special friends" in the audience. And which did you just assume.

I think the obvious ones I can think of in the time I've been watching the show are Orry, Denis, Nicky and Maggie.

But I also wondered about James (July), Lee and Olly. Also the current Simon.

James from the battle of the sexes, (Mind you they didn't try to cover it up)

Well of course it's always dangerous to make assumptions... I prefer to "confirm" it if I can. :lol:

Steven from March 2007 definitely was (I found his MySpace).

Well Orry is pretty much confirmed the way he kept saying he wanted to kiss the male 1p box openers... Denis I thought he may be (especially after a comment about knowing quite a few fairies in his time). Nicky and Maggie I'm fairly sure are - didn't Maggie have what was obviously her girlfriend / partner with her?

James from July - assuming that's the one who played in September - had what was obviously his boyfriend in the audience. 10p Lee was... (I found his MySpace too

). I don't think Olly was - I'm fairly sure he made reference to having / getting a girlfriend. As for current Simon, I don't think he is but you never know...

There have been others... I think Spiky Paul, £1 Raj, Florist Michael and Ray (1) from 2006 were as well. There are probably many you don't know about and will never even suspect. I remember someone saying Julian was gay (hopefully not just because of his name) and that theory was squashed when he said he'd been married for 30 years and had 10 granddchildren or something like that! :lol:

Darren also was and Simon who ran spank

thebanker... Maurice as well I assume.
Was Phyllis? She seemed very 'close' with her friend, however she said she lived on her own

I think John (1) was also... as contestants call him 'Gay John'

Marcus too? I don't think it was ever confirmed though...

Oh and Mark from 3rd October 2006... his boyfriend posted on the forum under the name "gravelguy" or something.

I had also wondered about both the Shahids as well. Oh... and Bunney... again was that ever confirmed? He could have 16 children, I suppose. Craig from May 2007 was as well - that was confirmed by his MySpace or something like that.

I seem to remember Simon from February joking that "there were 3 others" from his time on the wings - one was Darren but I don't think we ever found out who the other 2 were. Some people thought Chris S from Oct 2007 was. I had wondered about Deano but I think he made reference to having a girlfriend!

I'm pretty sure Phyllis was widowed.

Shahid (1) had a wife IIRC.

I remember reading something on Bunney's Myspace that confirmed it for me, I'll have a look and see what it was ...

"Bonnie White - my first and only girlfriend. I was 8 at the time but we're still great friends."

Unless he's just been single since he was 8...

Bunney's Facebook profile said he's interested in men, so that means he is gay. Phyllis was widowed, so I don't think she is.

Bunney is not gay. That's just how he is! He lives with a girl called Joanne in a caravan while they wait (still!) for the insurance to come through from the terrible floods last summer which destroyed their house.

But living with a woman doesn't make you straight.

Pointless indeed.

It doesn't matter really, ay? (Unless you live on Albert Square and your name is Ian Beale of course...mumble mumble...

nikki's gay, she had her partner in the audience.

Well, no. It doesn't matter at all... but I don't think anyone ever said it mattered.

It'd be a similar case if the thread was called "players with brown hair" or "players with bald heads".
