## Storylines

Robbie is born in May 2016, when Natalie gives birth to him suddenly, with the shock of Michelle dying and Morgan going missing. He ages, and soon becomes 12. He soon makes good friends with Alfie Weekday. In June, on Nicky's birthday, Robbie becomes jealous when Nicky is getting attention, and rebels by throwing toys etc out of the window, along with Alfie, resulting in Natalie dropping Nicky's birthday cake. When Robbie explains, Nick understands. In October 2016, Amii starts bullying Robbie, hitting him and throwing his things out of the window. In December 2016, on Christmas Day, Amii pushes Robbie down the stairs, knocking him unconscious. Nick takes Robbie to hospital, where he wakes up and tells them what happened. Amii is sent to stay temporarily with Mrs Celery. In July 2017, Robbie is upset when his mother leaves. In September 2018, Robbie is even more upset when Natalie dies. In September 2019, Robbie finds Jake Pastry, who has been stabbed, outside The Tumpetty. In May 2021, Jade, Emma and the children go on a day out. Nicky, Karen and Robbie wander off, and Nicky and Robbie enter an abandoned mine shaft, despite being stopped by Karen. The mine shaft collapses on top of them. Karen suffers an asthma attack as a result, and passes out. They are found by Jade and Emma. The three all survive. He leaves with Natalie in January 2022. He returned in December 2023, to stAy with Jade for Christmas. However, Jade found he was reluctant to go back.

## Background Info

In February 2016, it was announced that Eliot Carrington would be joining N&F as the son of Nick (NJE) & Natalie (Natalie J). Carrington was picked due to his part as Bobby Beale in EastEnders. NJE has frequently criticised the storyline on EastEnders, due to the whole storyline (consisting of Bobby accidentally killing his sister Lucy (played by former N&F actress Hetti Bywater) and then transpiring that he had anger issues) being handled badly. NJE commented "the whole storyline was handled terribly. Apart from the fact that it's completely unrealistic, why the hell didn't they get him help, see someone etc??? He wasn't evil, as everyone kept saying, he was a kid with anger issues that needed help, and as the storyline went on, the situation became completely stupid." NJE chose Carrington to join, as he liked the idea of him playing "a normal kid". Robbie was born in May 2016. In November 2021, it was confirmed that 6 characters has been axed, including Robbie. He left in January 2022. In November 2023, it was confirmed that Robbie would return, now played by Billy Jenkins. He returned in December 2023.
