EE: Revisiting Kat/Harry

Sorry to start a thread if there is already one, but couldn't see where to post this.

There was an article a while back about EE revisiting Kat's story with Harry - I know we have seen she has been left money (which she declined) and then haven't heard anything since.

Now, I LOVE EE lately and won't critics DTC especially when so much is going on at the moment, but does anybody know when or if this will be playing out?

I'd quite like it if Kat could have some major story - Jessie is a terrific actress, a soap icon, but since the awful Shagging story and the fire, we haven't seen much of her.

I really would like Alfie to leave, preferably by death. No offence, but Kat is better as a Slater and I couldn't bare to see her and Alfie separated and living on the square long term. It would be nice to have Alfie have a terminal illness, it would make a great storyline, a sad one though, and would give Kat another lease of life. She has been back almost as long as her first stint, but the impact is not as big, despite the fact she had the Babyswap, Shag, Fire. I'd also like to see the Slaters built up again, with Little Mo and Charlie back.

    What the hell happened to Kat Slater? Responsible for arguably EE's best post millennium moment, now reduced to this?

    What I don't understand is where the money suddenly came from!? Back when he died he left Zoe £18,000 which she didn't claim due to how it upset Kat. And now suddenly he left Kat money too? It doesn't really make any sense!

    As for reviving Kat Slater, I'm all for it.

    And I'd also champion a terminal illness story for Alfie and it's honestly the only way I'd want to see the pair reunite is just for Kat to make peace with him before he dies.

    BIB - Big Mo, or I guess Mo as she is now know :D did explain on screen that its sat in an account and Zoe won't touch it, and the family had decided to let Kat have it now that she is broke and homeless.

    Kat needs a big storyline seriously!

    I don't mind Alfie, but if we have to have Kat and Alfie separated and Kat as Kat Slater again, for her to shine, then so be it!

    Jessie is in the shows latest storyline conference, so hopefully this means more Kat and less Linda! (Not that I dislike Linda, but the overuse of Linda and underuse of Kat has been a complete and utter disgrace, as Kat is far better and way more iconic/popular!)

    I don't think the story has gone away, it's just that DTC seems to be more interested in the Carters than Kat, with or without Alfie.

    I love Kat as a Slater and with Alfie and she will need someone to lean on during this story and that someone is Alfie!

    An illness story line would be great for Alfie as I think Shane will handle it well and plus when he's dead he'll be out of the way of people on here who make unkind and unnecessary comments about him.

    Haha I'm sorry! I used to be a big fan of Alfie actually but he's become so pointless, they've ruined his character big time :(

    What happened? Kirkwood! No imagination with storylines and regressed her character big time.

    Lack of screentime since late last year I agree.

    Past victims of sexual abuse coming forward and making their case?

    It's cynically topical.

    I think this storyline will kick off after the 30th and then Jessie will really do it justice! In my eyes Jessie is one of the best actresses in soap and deserves to have a big story. In regards to Alfie having an illness, I don't think I'd like it if they killed him off! However I always thought that in the fire Alfie should have been left with a spinal injury which saw him wheelchair bound for a couple of months before being able to walk again but with the aid of a cane. Shane would be brilliant in that story I think!

    This should allow Jessie to really shine again. Lorraine Newman worked wonders with her, while DTC has only recently began rebuilding her again, as she has been a mess of a character since they brought her back with Alfie and bunged her with two more kids.

    It's interesting they brought back the harry storyline, as it effectively is what made Kat who she is today. It would be great if they brought Michelle Ryan in for a short stint, as she was and will always be a major part of that as she is the product of rape from Harry.
