 In an interview with Inside Soap , Kirkwood said that Anthony and Tyler would bring a new element to EastEnders , " There 's been no shortage of brilliant and sexy women in EastEnders over the past few years and it was about time there were some blokes to join them . Tony and Matt are great actors , and the fact that they 're easy on the eye is a great advantage " . " What the brothers bring is romance and fun , because that 's something we 've been a little short @-@ changed on in EastEnders recently . The Moons are a very interesting family to work with – they 're all big characters . It 's a great new era for that clan " . Kirkwood added that " there is more to the pair than meets the eye " saying that there " are a couple of buried secrets between Eddie and his sons " confirming it will be " a big story for the summer " . He finished , " there 'll be consequences for all concerned " . Kirkwood later added , " What I hope we 've created in Tyler and Anthony are blokes you might see in the pub on a Friday night with an appetite for life – and for women . "
