Sid was a fictional character in the 11 November 2005 Normandy/Remembrance Day episode of the popular BBC soap opera EastEnders.
Sid appeared both in the flashbacks in the episode (played by Zac Macguire), and in the present day action (played by Trevor Peacock).
Sid joined the army aged 16, lying about his age to become a "hero". He was consoled by William Moon before going into battle, which he survived, and William didn't.
61 years later, on 11 November 2005, Sid met William's grandson, Alfie Moon, trying to force-feed his sick Nana (William's widow) in a Normandy restaurant. When Alfie left the restaurant, Sid followed him to shout at him, but they ended up having a heart-to-heart, both being unaware of their connection with William Moon.
