Storylines[]
Matthew is seen walking through Bridge Street Market with his friend, Jeff. They are noticed by Bianca Jackson and Natalie Price as they are walking through the market after Bianca has finished her first shift at Ian Beale's fish and chip shop, Beale's Plaice. When they all meet up, Matthew and Jeff take an immediate interest in Natalie and call her "sweet pants" and ask her what her name is. Bianca muscles in and introduces herself, but is then abruptly told that they were not talking to her. Matthew asks Bianca if she has ever seen the musical Grease. Natalie is flattered that she has received some attention, since she hardly ever gets any attention. She also takes pleasure from the fact that for once it is Bianca that has been ignored.
