Gianni di Marco was a fictional character in the BBC serial drama EastEnders. He was played by Marc Bannerman.
Gianni arrived in Walford along with the rest of the di Marco family in 1998. Gianni was the younger of the two brothers in the family, the other being Beppe di Marco. He had two younger sisters Teresa and Nicky.
Gianni worked as a chef in the family restaurant, Giuseppe's, named after his late father. He later became the manager of the restaurant.
He had a relationship with Annie Palmer, which was stopped when there were doubts over whether Gianni's real father was Giuseppe di Marco or Annie's father George. DNA tests proved Gianni really was a di Marco, but his relationship with Annie didn't continue. He then had a relationship with Jackie Owen but discovered she suffered from severe PMT and that made their relationship more and more difficult when Gianni had to put up with Jackie's violent temper and foul moods. Eventually, Jackie left Walford with her brother Steve and her relationship with Gianni was over.
Gianni also had a fling with Louise Raymond but it wasn't anything more than a casual fling.
When Gianni's youngest sister Nicky claimed she had been assaulted by her maths teacher, Rod Morris, Gianni attacked him. Rod pressed charges of assault but later dropped them. Gianni and the rest of his family left Walford in August 2000 to start a new life in Leicester, living with their uncle Franco, leaving Beppe and Joe in Walford.
