Do you think Billy was a coward?

Question

in Eastenders? Part of me thinks yes, but then also he didn't know if those blokes had guns or not and he was probably thinking about Honey and the kids. Poor jase and poor Billy.

Answer 1

GODS  sake its a TV programme - get a lie.. i know this is he internet.. but

Answer 2

YES!! BUT HE USED TO BULLY JAMIE AND AS WE KNOW ALL BULLIES ARE COWARDS.

Answer 3

No i don't think he was cuz i no i wouldn't of went in.

Answer 4

i think if he was a better friend of billys he'd have gone into help him but they did'nt get on at all not so long ago,but eh thats soap land.i did cry but then i cry at ought i do,lol.

Answer 5

I think i do. He'd be more respected for trying to do something - at least calling the police - rather than just cowering in a bathroom.. I dont know how he could look little jay in the face knowing he hid in the bathroom whilst his dad was being murdered.. I know he has young kids and a wife to think of, but Jay has no one else. Helping would be an automatic reaction in my eyes. I do think it's telling though, how Jase's last dying thoughts were of his son. He died holding out his hand to his son.. Dawn was nowhere in the picture..

Answer 6

not coz he has kids to think of - how sad its not real lol

Answer 7

it was so sad... Jase having all the flash backs.

I dont think Billy was a coward, they were out numbered and Billy knew what the men were capable of, when Billy went back into the flat Jase was already on the floor dying so it would have been all of them against Billy, If Billy had taken them all on he would be dead too, he was put in a powerless situation.

Apparently Honey dies soon aswell and i am wondering if it is anything to do with those men since Billy was involved.

Answer 8

Definitely not - for once in his life he did the right and sensible thing !

Answer 9

Billy should have really helped

but those two guys were much stronger

So Billy didnt stnad a chance.

Billy could have hit at least once

Answer 10

I understood why he couldnt help as it was him against two or three but I felt sorry for Jase when he was asking Billy for help and he ran to the bathroom. Billy should have got Phil, Minty etc to help.

JB- Honey doesn't die. She leaves Billy when she finds out his involvement and that he's got the money that Jase was taking from Terry.

Answer 11

He was a coward yes. But I don't think he had much of a chance if he tried sticking up for Jase.. 3 against 1...

Answer 12

i think he was, i'd rather die helping than do nothing. I couldn't have lived with myself. Yeah so billy has kids so does jase and jay doesn't have a mum. Billy always was a coward he used to hit Jamie until jamie got older and hit him back he never did it again then.

Answer 13

I think he was right not to go in fighting as he didn't stand a chance and he has a wife and family to think about.

He did however have the opportunity to get help from the locals and the police, which he should have done.
