Creation
In November 2005, the BBC announced the arrival of an upcoming character, Bradley Branning. Bradley was introduced as the grandson of the already established character Jim Branning (John Bardon). The character first appeared on-screen in January 2006. 18 year old actor Charlie Clements was cast in the role. On his casting, Clements commented, "I'm very excited to be joining EastEnders and joining such a great family it's wicked."
The character was allegedly conceived in the Hertfordshire town of Tring, where one of the EastEnders' storyline conferences was held. As a result, Bradley was said to have originated from Tring on-screen before his move to East London to develop a career as a banker. Bradley was portrayed as a character who'd had a "sheltered life because his dad left him when he was young."
