Anthony Moon

Anthony Moon's a good looking, well groomed (i.e. vain) young lad. Though he tries to compete with his brother Tyler, as a committed skirt-chaser, Anthony's actually a romantic and is on the look-out for true love.

First appearance: 25th July 2011
Address: 23 Albert Square
Occupation: Runs "The Emporium" antiques junk business

Even though he's riddled with insecurities (and is a bit of a hypochondriac), Anthony uses his sarcastic wit to cover it up. Like his cousin Alfie, Anthony's got banter, which is ideal for his job - flogging antiques in the Emporium.

  • Football team: Supports West Ham.
  • Personal traits: Scatty and indecisive
  • Likes: Women, designer aftershaves, Ludo, drinking and playing pool

The Emporium is just the start of things, as far as Anthony's concerned. He has a sound business brain and hopes his school qualifications will take Moon and Sons to the next level! He dreams that some day his brother Michael will be coming to him for advice. Might be longer than he thinks, though...

Anthony likes to think of himself as the level-headed brother. He's always sorting out Tyler's problems, but in his mind, that's what big brothers are for.

But Anthony is the source of a fair share of their problems. When the Moon boys found themselves indebted to sinister Derek Branning, Anthony nearly got them both kneecapped by trying to woo Amira, rather than pay off their debt. In fact, there is a distinct danger that Anthony's romantic nature could well be his undoing some day.

The lucky lady who falls for Anthony will find herself treated like a princess. Unfortunately that wasn't good enough for Amira, who left Anthony heartbroken. And with his brother now leaving the single life behind, with Whitney, Anthony's even more keen to find himself a mate.

If you think it should be you, he's to be found in the Emporium weekdays 9-5ish. Knowledge of antiques a bonus...
