Christine "Chrissie" Watts is a fictional character from the popular BBC soap opera EastEnders, played by Tracy-Ann Oberman. She first appeared in April 2004 as the second wife of the show’s most iconic character, "Dirty" Den Watts,[1] becoming a prominent regular for the next 18 months. Oberman described her character as being like Den’s first wife, Angie, but "with 15 more years of Sex and The City thrown in",[2] and won praise for her "three-dimensional portrayal of a classic soap bitch."[3] Chrissie was created by the production team to be every bit Den’s "equal", and became well known for her deviousness and extreme manipulation of others, echoing the traits of her husband.[4] Her storylines centred primarily around the tumultuous love-hate relationship with Den and his children, and her schemes against those who got in her way. Critics have variously called the character a "witch"[5], "national TV heroine"[6], "venomous",[7] and as "hard as nails" in "the grand tradition of landladies of the Queen Vic".[8] In 2005 she became the critical figure of the show when she killed Den in a fit of rage during an episode watched by over 14 million British viewers.[9]
[edit] Creation and castingThe creation of a second wife for Den Watts was a courageous act on the part of the show’s executive producer Louise Berridge. Den’s first wife, Angie, was an iconic character in British television history, with their troublesome marriage largely anchoring EastEnders extraordinary success when it was launched in the mid-80s.[10] In an interview shortly after she first appeared on-screen as Chrissie Watts, Tracy Ann Oberman noted how coming into the show after Angie was "a big act to follow".[4] Casting for the character was hectic, with Oberman describing the process as a "whirlwind" affair.[11] The role of the second Mrs Den Watts was highly sought after with Oberman eventually beating out high profile stars like Patsy Kensit and Joanna Lumley for the part.[4][12] Oberman was on holiday when she received a call saying she had been cast in the role and was required to be on set the next Tuesday. All told the audition process had taken just two weeks, with Oberman beginning filming a mere ten days after her initial screen test. In fact the schedule was so tight that Oberman was on set and taping scenes before a contract had even been signed.[4]
The arrival of Chrissie Watts was announced barely a month before she was set to first appear on-screen,[11] and came at a time when EastEnders was undergoing immense media criticism and falling ratings.[13] The rush of casting meant Oberman had little time to process the enormity of the role she had taken on, declaring: "my feet haven't even touched the ground yet. [...] I haven't had time to think about what this role is going to do to my life! I'm very excited to be part of such a fantastic show and one I have been a fan of for many years."[11] She admitted, however, to being "slightly intimidated" by the high media profile and press interest surrounding the show at the time.[4] Indeed, joining EastEnders "proved to be something of a baptism of fire for Oberman",[3] playing opposite Leslie Grantham who was the subject of intense tabloid interest in light of his highly publicised return to the show.[14] Twenty-four hours after Chrissie’s first episode went to air a scandal surrounding Grantham hit the tabloid papers. According to Oberman, the atmosphere on set the next day "was a bit tense" but, she added, "the Watts are pulling together and we're getting on with it and working".[4] However, reports also noted how difficult things were for Oberman, who had walked into a highly complicated situation: "Tracy-Ann is still really finding her feet on the show... she feels really left out because all the cast are blackballing Grantham and refusing to talk to him. Since most of her scenes are with Grantham, it’s really hard for her."[15] Looking back on the incident, Oberman commented, "I respect Leslie for fronting it out; he emerged from his dressing room and started working. No one mentioned the story. That's life in EastEnders; the machine never stops."[3] The increasing prominence of Chrissie in EastEnders meant that Oberman, more than most, had to endure the gruelling schedule of working on a soap, taping up to twenty scenes a day. Although she was only in EastEnders for 18 months such was the importance of Chrissie to the show and storylines that she effectively did a four-year stint.[7] This all came during a period of great uncertainty for the show; media criticism and negative publicity placed created immense pressure behind-the-scenes, with large-scale cast culls and speculation in the press and on the set over who may be next.[16] In an interview with the Sunday Mirror, Oberman described the atmosphere as like a "vacuum", with the cast "just waiting to see what the next stage is - It can be a bit tense but it's exciting. I really don't know what's going to happen."[2] However, the critical role of Chrissie to the show as it moved forward meant that Oberman came out of the uncertainty with more to show than most, "being offered an improved deal" and extending her contract for a year.[17] [edit] Character developmentAlthough in EastEnders for only a year and a half, Chrissie Watts was one of the most highly prominent figures in the cast, becoming the focal point of the show for most of 2005. As such her character was given more attention and development than was usual for such a duration in the soap. [edit] Personality
Unlike Angie, Den’s first wife, Chrissie "has a strong will and fights for what she wants".[19] This is one of the key aspects of her personality and a central premise of her character, as Oberman noted in an interview for Radio 4: "I like to think of Chrissie as Angie with benefits; she's like Angie with 15 more years of feminism behind her. She’s his [Den’s] equal a bit more than Angie was."[4] Chrissie has been described as "venomous",[7] "sinister"[20] "devious", and as "hard as nails" in "the grand tradition of landladies of the Queen Vic",[8] manipulating others to ensure matters go her way. She was characterised by executive producer Kate Harwood as a survivor, someone who "thinks on her feet" whatever the situation.[21] Indeed, Oberman was thrilled to be "playing such a strong female character",[11] whom she described as a not a bad person at heart but one willing to stand and "fight in her corner".[21] Another central aspect to Chrissie’s character is her fashion sense. Oberman wanted to bring an element of Sex and the City to Chrissie and Walford,[2] and before even stepping foot on set she spent eight hours with the costume designer shopping for Chrissie’s clothes at Selfridges.[4] Indeed, as the "voluptuous landlady" of the Queen Vic,[22] Chrissie became the show’s ultimate femme fatale, her fashion sensibilities taking centre stage and ultimately scoping Oberman the award for best dressed soap star in 2005.[23] Chrissie's clothes function much like armour, with the importance of fashion and her dress sense to her identity underscored during her final episodes set in prison, when she rails at her garments being stolen: "My clothes are me! Thery're who I am!"[24] As a sassy female character, Oberman was attracted to the mesh of sexuality, humour, and intelligence: "What I really like is she's got the sex and dry sarcasm".[2] Chrissie’s barbed and biting remarks became a hallmark of the character; even when cornered by Sharon after attempting to flee the country, she remarks: "You really are your father's daughter, Sharon. No shaking you off either."[25] [edit] Mrs Den WattsChrissie entered the show as the estranged wife of "one of the most iconic characters in soap history", Den Watts.[26] When EastEnders began in 1985 the troubled marriage between Den and his first wife, Angie, had provided much of the drama, as viewers watched Den’s affairs and manipulation gradually take their toll on his wife who was unable to compete in the games he played. Chrissie was very different to the first Mrs Watts; where Angie turned to the bottle, Chrissie was more Den’s "equal" and could be just as devious and calculating. Producers deliberately wanted to take Den’s second marriage down a different path to his first. Oberman revealed that whereas the relationship between Den and Angie had been likened to Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, that between Den and Chrissie was modelled on Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn.[4] Like Den, Chrissie had an acerbic tongue and their relationship was marked by verbal fencing in the manner of Hepburn and Tracy. The attraction was intended to be mutual, unlike Den’s one-sided marriage to Angie. Trying to win Chrissie around into giving their marriage another try, Den declared: "I know we’ve got a great relationship even when we’re tearing lumps out of each other, you give as good as you get and that’s the sort of marriage I’ve always wanted".[27] Commenting on the complicated nature of their relationship, Oberman observed,
The equality of their marriage was dramatically underscored towards the end of 2004, when Den, as a sign of faith and in an effort to woe back her sympathies, revealed to Chrissie his plans to reclaim the Queen Vic by scamming the rival Mitchell family: "If you ever needed proof that we're in this together or how badly I need you in my life, this is it. I wasn't going to show this to another soul, but I'm showing you because you're my wife; because it's me and you together."[28] Their blackmailing and scheming resulted in the financial ruin of the Mitchells and the restoration of the Vic to the Watts family. As a couple, they delighted as much in the battle as each other, stressing the difficulties two strong-willed and independent people can face when trying to establish marital equality. This dynamic was constantly set in the context of Den’s womanising and wandering eye. However, "instead of collapsing in tears" as many female characters in EastEnders are want to do, "she proves that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned".[29] Oberman revealed that one of her highlights working on EastEnders was when Chrissie took revenge on her friend Kate Mitchell (Jill Halfpenny) for having an affair with Den: "cutting off Jill Halfpenny's hair in the salon... was a really great episode. I loved working with Jill and I think that put Chrissie on the map."[22] Chrissie left Den but eventually took him back – again! This ebb and flow characterised their marriage, "I think there's a challenge in it, and I think she would like to be the one who would ultimately tame him."[4] This further reflected the games they played and the relish each took in trying to outwit the other. Den had an established reputation at intellectual games, outwitting Phil Mitchell and saw little challenge in Angie’s aptitude, but considered Chrissie to be "as sharp as they come".[30] Indeed, Den’s extra-marital dalliances were used by writers to showcase and highlight Chrissie’s "strong-willed persona".[18] When Zoe Slater chastised Den for caring only about Chrissie’s reaction should she learn of their affair, Den fired back: "And so should you. You think I’ve treated you badly? Well you don’t have a clue what’s going to happen if she ever finds out! The best thing you can do is keep your mouth shut."[31] By the time Chrissie left the Square, Oberman dryly observed that she had "had more fights on EastEnders than most women have in their whole lives."[32] [edit] Witches of Walford Chrissie's style was a prominent aspect of the character. Tracy Ann Oberman wanted to bring an element of Sex and the City to the character. In November 2004 it was announced that Leslie Grantham had not renewed his contract and that Den Watts would depart EastEnders in a "spectacular" and final exit.[33] The storyline, which would see Den being killed off for the show’s 20th anniversary episode in February, would dominate the entire year and make the character of Chrissie Watts the "centrepiece" of the show.[21] The storyline was immensely prominent, with Chrissie, Sam Mitchell, and Zoe Slater being dubbed "the three Witches of Walford", in reference to Shakespeare’s play, Macbeth, by the popular press.[34] Such was public interest that writers took the step of "fiercely guarding" the storylines "so that even the cast weren’t sure how they would play out" with "the show’s producers shooting multiple endings to ensure the cast couldn’t leak the plot."[35] The plot revolved around Chrissie’s plans for revenge after, having taken Den back, he has an affair with Zoe. Chrissie proceeds to manipulate Zoe and Sam into "wreaking their revenge on Den" but, in a fit of rage, kills him and buries his body in the cellar of the Vic.[36] Oberman "begged the producers to let Chrissie do it to prove she wasn't a sap", adding, "It was a real rush for me."[37] Indeed, the storyline increasingly highlighted and accentuated Chrissie’s manipulative character and conniving personality and her representation as a "strong female character".[38] When she secretly learnt that Zoe was pregnant with Den’s child, she played on Zoe’s insecurities and "coerces" her into having an abortion.[39] The pregnancy was a double blow to Chrissie, as Den had always resisted having children with her, and as with Kate Mitchell, Chrissie wanted to teach Zoe a harsh lesson in "messing with other people’s husbands".[40] As Den noted of his wife, "She tends to blame the women that leave me astray."[41] In the aftermath of Den’s death, Chrissie’s character was increasingly "transformed" into a manipulator, as she "played" and "spun" her way "out of every situation".[21] Her manipulation of Sam and Zoe over Den’s death was a prominent feature of scripts over the coming months, and was often framed in the continuing love-hate relationship with her, now deceased, husband. In one of her most poignant and macabre scenes, Chrissie enters the Queen Vic cellar, stamping three times on the place where Den lies buried beneath the cement, and confides in her husband:"You'd be so proud of me darling. Do you know that? I'm really sorting those girls out. I'm not leaving anything to chance. I'm starting to enjoy it. And do you know what the irony is: the only person who could appreciate how well I'm doing is you."[42] The moment aptly reflects on the complicated relationship between husband and wife, which extends even after death, and underscores the extent to which Chrissie, like Den, excels at manipulating others and the importance of this to her characterisation. Indeed, Sam is eventually "driven over the edge" by Chrissie’s machinations,[4] and in desperation "sensationally" digs up Den’s body in the hope of bringing Chrissie down.[43] However, playing the grieving widow, Chrissie outwits Sam again and frames her for the murder. The storyline commenced its conclusion with the return of the Mitchell family to help Sam, and would culminate in Chrissie’s "explosive" departure from the show.[44] But like Den before her, Chrissie had little trouble running rings round the Mitchells, her clashes with Peggy, Phil, and Grant part of the final showdown between the Watts and Mitchells in a confrontation which, in the words of one presenter, "grips the nation".[4] Indeed, the story’s climax, resulting in Chrissie’s exit, was such a significant moment for the show that BBC bosses took the highly unusual step of keeping the "manner of her departure" a "complete mystery even to the soap’s [own] producers", with reports claiming that "no less than four separate storylines [are] to be filmed for her departure from EastEnders".[45] Commenting at the time to Now Magazine, Oberman said, "I think Chrissie deserves to get away with murder. She was heavily provoked. I’d love to see her make it to Argentina... [and] run a beach bar with a young Latin lover by her side."[32] The immense public focus on the figure of Chrissie was used by executives in the intensifying ratings war, with the BBC "using the Chrissie Watts departure as the major weapon in our armoury... to snatch back viewers" from rival soaps.[45] [edit] Victim or VillainTo mark Chrissie’s departure from the show, BBC3 aired a special episode of EastEnders Revealed on 22 September 2005. Entitled “Chrissie Watts: Victim or Villain?” the episode featured comments from Oberman, Grantham, Letitia Dean (Sharon Watts), Kim Medcalf, and Barbara Windsor profiling Chrissie and exploring the nuanced nature of the character. "A lot of viewers, and myself," Oberman later remarked, "really wanted Chrissie to get away with it, especially as Den was such a monster. But soap and film noir have a lot in common - the bad girls have to be punished."[18] However critics considered Chrissie to be a "three-dimensional soap bitch", rather than a flat pantomime figure.[3] Her feelings of guilt and remorse were represented side-by-side her desire to escape blame and manipulate others, and even led her on two separate occasions to the cusp of self-confession (both times stopped by Jake Moon at the last minute). And despite having killed her father, Chrissie highly valued her friendship with Sharon, declaring at one point: "my friendship with you is the only good thing to come out of my relationship with Den, and I mean that!" Oberman characterised Chrissie as "part victim part villain".[46] She felt that, although "no excuse" for murder, Chrissie was driven to what she did,[21] and that "these characters are made, not born."[3] Chrissie was haunted by the alcoholic fate of Den’s first wife, which she vowed at Angie’s grave to avoid. But in spite of her efforts, and indeed because of them, she failed, as she came to recognise: "You know it's funny; when Den used to talk about Ange he used to describe her as this weak sad, cow. And I used to think 'not like me, oh no, not like me'. Who's having the last laugh now, Ange?"[47] [edit] Storylines[edit] BackstoryChrissie Watts first appeared in EastEnders on the 29 April 2004. She and Den had met in Spain and married some years earlier, during which time he was believed to be dead by his family and associates. Their marriage was tumultuous, with Chrissie eventually leaving Den after she saw him "pawing all over that tourist guide." She then learnt that Den had sold their bar and returned to the UK with "some girl"; Chrissie followed intent on recovering her share of the money.[48] [edit] 2004-05Chrissie arrives in Walford in search of her husband Den. Their marriage has turned sour and he has sold their bar in Spain and taken the money. Den manages to persuade her to give their marriage another try, and to stay in Walford with him. She is shocked to discover he has children, Sharon (Letitia Dean), Dennis (Nigel Harman), and Vicki (Scarlett Johnson), and that while he was in Spain with her, he was in exile after faking his own death. She starts work as a hairdresser in Kate Mitchell's (Jill Halfpenny) nail salon but she discovers Den and Kate are having an affair, so confronts Kate, hacking off most of her hair. She patches things up with Kate and forgives Den, but promises that she will kill him if he ever cheats on her again. Den buys The Queen Victoria public house and the family move in to the flat above the bar. Dennis catches Den and his girlfriend Zoe Slater in bed together and tells Chrissie who is stunned. Zoe discovers she is pregnant by Den. Chrissie persuades her to abort the baby, and later reveals that she knows it was Den's baby. Chrissie, Zoe and Sam Hunter plan revenge on Den; Chrissie for his lies and adultery, Zoe for forcing her to fake a pregnancy and then sleep with him, and Sam for losing her pub to Den in a corrupt scheme that both he and Chrissie were involved in. Chrissie plans to intimidate Den into signing the pub over to her. They confront Den but he takes it in his stride and openly talks about his sins, unaware that Sharon is hiding at the other side of the pub, listening to her father's confessions. Sharon berates Chrissie for tricking her into coming back to Walford with the lie that her father is ill. She storms out of the pub and Den follows. Chrissie knows that Sharon is the one person Den truly loves and cares about and knows that losing Den the love of his favourite child will destroy him. Den walks back in and she taunts him that he now knows what it is like to lose what he loves most. Unable to contain his rage, Den attacks his wife and hits her head against a fruit machine. Zoe picks up the nearest object (a metal, dog-shaped doorstop) and hits Den over the head with it and he falls to the ground. Perceiving him to be dead, Zoe and Sam go out the back to lock all the doors. Den grabs Chrissie's leg and she picks up the doorstop and delivers a fatal blow to his head, secretly watched by Sam. The three women bury him in a hole in the pub's cellar, which is filled with cement the next morning. Despite knowing her innocence, Chrissie allows Zoe to believe that she has killed Den. Consequently a power struggle breaks out between Sam — who wants her pub back in return for her silence — and Chrissie with each woman trying to gain control of Zoe. Chrissie claims that Den has run off with another woman and attempts to make her story convincing by throwing his clothes into the street and engaging in a bogus phone conversation with him in front of a packed pub. She successfully removes Zoe from the Square and Sam's descent into binge-drinking and depression enables her to exploit her. Sam takes the doorstop and hides it at her flat, and begins to blackmail Chrissie by saying that, unless she hands over the pub, she will tell Zoe the truth. Despite months of threats, Chrissie stands up to Sam, which leads to her telling Zoe everything. Zoe punches Chrissie before fleeing to Spain and telling her mother Kat Moon (Jessie Wallace) what has happened. Dennis and Sharon return to Walford in search of their father. Sam grows frustrated and smashes up Den's grave in the hope that Chrissie will be sent down for his death. This backfires and Sam is arrested on suspicion of murder as Den's blood stains are found under her sink and her story constantly changes. Chrissie gets Kat to get her cousin, Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner), to give a false alibi that Zoe and Chrissie were with her on the night Den died. Sam's mother, Peggy Mitchell (Barbara Windsor), returns to Walford to free Sam, and slaps Chrissie during Den's funeral. The slap causes Chrissie to fall into Den's grave on top of the coffin. Chrissie and her boyfriend, Jake Moon (Joel Beckett), to whom she has confessed the murder, plan to sell the pub to Johnny Allen (Billy Murray) and a mystery second buyer, and flee the country, although Phil (Steve McFadden) and Grant Mitchell (Ross Kemp) taunt Chrissie, and convince Sharon of Chrissie's guilt after arranging a visit with Sam in prison. They also try to break Stacey's alibi to no avail. Jake and Chrissie argue in Johnny's nightclub and she makes intimate references to murdering Den. This is caught on CCTV by Johnny who informs Jake, who tells Chrissie, who begs Johnny him not to show anyone the tape. She asks to get the money for The Queen Victoria right away, and Johnny takes advantage saying the only way she will get the money is if she sleeps with him. Chrissie starts crying, saying she cannothurt Jake. Johnny tells her she will not get the money, and tells the Phil and Grant about the tape. Chrissie discovers that Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) is the mystery buyer of the pub, and she and Jake make a quick sale to Ian before fleeing the Square. At the airport, they see Sharon, Phil and Grant with the police. Sharon punches Chrissie, who is then arrested for Den's murder. Chrissie says that she will only co-operate in exchange for a meeting with Sharon. This is earned, and she tries to make Sharon realise why she killed her father, to no avail. She reveals that she forged Den's signature on the document in which Den handed over the pub to Chrissie, thus the pub legally belongs to Sharon. Jake visit Chrissie in jail and asks her to marry him. She finds out he has lost the £25,000 that was to be her bail money, and storms out of the visiting room, calling Jake an idiot. She begins plotting revenge on Sharon for sending her to prison by trying to force her to testify in court about what Den was really like, wanting to see Sharon crumble at confessing how he cheated and supposedly beat her mother (which he never did). After a week in prison, she gives up and sacks her solicitor, and decides to plead guilty to murder. She walks into her cell with a contented smile. [edit] ReceptionAccording to media and press critics, Tracy Ann Oberman “became a national TV heroine”[6] who "gripped audiences with her turn as Queen Vic murderess Chrissie Watts."[46] As the wife of one of soap's biggest figures, Chrissie had a high profile, her storylines regularly splashed across the tabloid papers. The plot involving Den's death was among the most prominent of the decade, and generated intense media and public interest. Looking back on the period, Oberman noted the remarkable nature of the story:
Such was the prominence of the storyline and of Chrissie, that the character continuously appeared on the cover of soap magazines, such as All About Soap and Inside Soap. The special 1-hour 20th anniversary episode where Chrissie killed Den gained 14 million viewers and almost 60% of the audience share,[49] with figures rising to over 17 million when factoring in digital and recorded viewings.[3] It was one the highest rating episode of EastEnders that year, and has since only been bested by a showing on Christmas Day 2007 (which drew anomalous large audiences for all BBC1 programmes). Oberman revealled that she couldn't stop laughing during filming of the scenes, as Grantham's hair was stuck to the floor: "We did lots of takes and poor Leslie was on his back for hours with fake blood all around his head. The liquid dried and his hair was glued to the floor. When he got up it ripped his hair out![37] Cover of All About Soap, 11 February 2005. Oberman has described her time on the show as "hectic". During Chrissie's tenure there was constant shuffling behind the scenes, with three different executive producers taking the reigns, with each new producer bringing in new writing teams.[7] Uncertainty came to be manifested in writing and scripts, with character inconsistencies and plot holes working their way into production. One notable example was ownership of the Queen Vic, with Chrissie legally owner of half the pub after Den legitimately signed over the deed before they nenewed their vows in February. However, in November this fact was forgotten, with Chrissie represented as forging Den's signature in order to nullify her ownership of the pub which legally became Sharon's. Problems with the script did not escape Oberman, who criticised her character's storylines after she left the show, saying the writers "must have been on crack", adding how "plots didn't make logical or emotional sense — but they said, 'That's the soap convention, dear, get used to it'".[7] She also considered some scenes to be irresponsible, saying "I was worried when four-year-olds said to me, 'I saw you kill Den.' I don't agree with censorship but there has to be a level of responsibility." One of the consequences of all the uncertainty behind the scenes was Chrissie's final fate, which was left largely unresolved. Oberman recently revealled that originally there were plans for a trial, but that poor timing ultimately shelved the storyline. Oberman recalled how the storyline "was put on hold and then there was a whole different team involved after that. I know that if they couldn't get me, Michelle and Kim together, [they wouldn't do it]. And I'd moved straight on to Doctor Who, too. Nobody was available until the following year, by which point Michelle was in Bionic Woman, I was pregnant and Kim was in Cabaret." Because of this "I never felt it was finished off and I would have loved to have wrapped it up." She went on to declare her desire to return for a proper resolution. "I'd love to finish off Chrissie's storyline because I love the character and I do feel that she was left in limbo. To know what happened to her would be great. Even if she went back to say goodbye or wanted to make peace with Sam. Or maybe we could see her in prison?"[22] However, Oberman has continuously affirmed that she loved playing Chrissie, and of all her roles misses playing her the most.[20] In a 2009 interview she commented on the significance of the character to EastEnders and viewers, saying "I can't believe that I'm still recognised so much as Chrissie. I still get a lot of letters about her, too. I think that she had as much of an impact as Janine did, which surprised me. Chrissie wasn't around for that long but she was an amazing character with an epic storyline."[22] She was nominated for a number of awards for her portrayal. In 2004 for Most Popular Newcomer at the National Television Awards;[50] She also received four nominations at the British Soap Awards, for Best Newcomer in 2004, Villain of the Year in 2005 and 2006, and Soap Bitch of the Year in 2006.[50][51] In 2005, she was nominated for Best Actress and Best Bitch at the Inside Soap Awards.[51] [edit] References
