2015- Elaine v Shirley and The Battle for The Vic.
Maria Friedman was a revelation as Elaine and many of us hope she will become a regular next summer.
Once Elaine finds out that Shirley is Mick's Mum and the Grandmother of Linda's kids I can see Fireworks between Elaine & Shirley and a battle for the Vic.

It's not assuming that she didn't do it, I just think there is more to it, it has been referenced to so many times and there was Mick talking about the insurance to Alfie...
Elaine, Mick, Linda, Johnny and Nancy are just the perfect Carter family. Elaine should co-run the pub with Andy (Mick's dad), when he rocks up.
I hope Shirley stays for a long time. There is a lot of scope for stories for her. Her and Mick building a relationship as mother and son, the aftermath of Linda/Dean, a possible return for Carly, potential casting of Andy, Shirley and her mother, more info on the fire, a reconciliation between Shirley/Linda, more development....she was the original Carter and i'm glad a producer has finally decided to delve into Shirley's past and explore her as an individual. I foresee lots of possible stories for her, should Linda Henry stay. (which I hope she does).
Oh and I hope Babe stays too. Plus i'm looking forward to meeting Sylvie.
Ross, Shirley is DTC favourite character, she ain't going nowhere love.,
Unless I've missed an episode we haven't seen Sylvie yet and you want her gone already? Shirley was given a whole family who were given the Vic. If Linda Henry wants to stay Shirley will be around for a long time.
I would have said Sharon and Linda were his faves, from his Twitter page.
Though he does rate Shirley (along with many others). And quite rightly so. She is awesome imo.
They really need thinning out or we will end up with another Branning situation,
Elaine would be perfect. Mick has become stale already. I could see Elaine and Linda running The Vic together eventually.
I think it's more been Mick and Linda who have been overused. Shirley has been more prominent but then she disappears for periods of time so it sort of balances out. Mick and Linda have had their own storylines and have featured in quite a few others as well, I think they have featured in the most episodes too. I know they are at the centre of the show but they should take a backseat for a bit. I think you are right about next year though, especially if Linda keeps the baby...
Naturally, Elaine hasn't forgiven her for the fire Shirley claims was an accident.
But I don't feel she will be used as much as other carter characters.
She will likely not be used a lot as Maria is essentially booked up until next summer. So they can fit her appearances into Maria's schedule. She is a three time laurence olivier award winning stage actress after all.
Depends on what happens with Linda Henry's trial in February.
Yes it will depend on that.
She was pretty awful on her second visit, acting wise. Way OTT. She needs to tone it down or stick to theatre.
She is a stage actress at heart.
