Alfred William "Alfie" Moon is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, played by Shane Richie. He made his first appearance on 21 November 2002, and left on 25 December 2005. He returned to EastEnders on 21 September 2010, following the return of on-screen wife Kat (Jessie Wallace) two episodes previously.
Some of the character's more prominent storylines have included: his turbulent relationship with—and later marriage to—Kat Slater; the dementia and death of his grandmother, Nana Moon (Hilda Braid); believing that Kat's son Tommy had died of cot death, whereas in fact Ronnie Mitchell (Samantha Womack) had switched him with her own deceased child; Kat's affair with Derek Branning (Jamie Foreman); beginning a relationship with Roxy Mitchell (Rita Simons) and marrying her, but reuniting with Kat moments after the wedding; Kat's pregnancy with twins—Bert and Ernie, destroying their home by committing arson to get the insurance money; winning the lottery and being diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Richie and Wallace departed on-screen on 22 May 2015. The characters returned for a short stint from 26 December 2015 to 25 January 2016, departing again to film a six-part spin-off series, titled Redwater, set in Ireland. However, following the conclusion of the spin-off, the pair will not return to the soap.
Alfie's parents were killed in a car crash on Shrove Tuesday and the family commemorate their death each year. Although young, he took responsibility for his younger brother Spencer (Christopher Parker), who is nearly twenty years his junior, and his grandmother Victoria (Hilda Braid), widely known as Nana. Alfie spent three years in prison for credit card fraud after taking the blame for his second cousins Jake (Joel Beckett) and Danny (Jake Maskall).
