    Amazing, but dreading seeing Pat, she should never of been killed off, and it's just insulting to viewers!:(

    Pam St. Clement will be amazing though!

    They could very easily bring Kathy back, so this is backing themselves into a corner!:(

    This will be amazing but so annoying at the same time as it will only highlight how wrong it was to kill Pat, Kathy and Cindy off.

    No they really couldn't. Santer said he wanted to and tried to think up a plausible way but it wasn't realistic. She is gone and we have to deal with it.

    How could they bring Kathy back? She's dead, maybe around 2006/2007 she could have made a shock return, but it's just not plausible she would be away from Ben for so long.

    I might be in another country on that night which is really disappointing! I will find a way to watch it, even if it kills me :D

    I'm so happy about this, well done to EastEnders and I'm really looking forward to seeing all four of those characters.

    Ultimately there is a plausible way but it's far fetched. Her husband could have been involved in some drugs cartel or a general criminal underworld type and the car accident was caused by men connected to this. While Gavin was killed instantly, Kathy was still alive so the gang took her and placed a body in her place. She may have then either gone on the run or stayed with the gang until her return - in both cases she would have extreme amnesia and her memories would have been tripped by discovering about what happened to Gavin.

    Again plausible just far fetched. However, Kathy is one of those characters I could suspend belief for.

    As its children in need I think the skit will be about Ian refusing to give to charity and the ghosts coming to show him what lifes about etc! Great they've got those actresses on board to take part.

    Amazing, amazing, amazing. These things can often be a let-down, but there's no chance of that happening here.

    I think Lucy's ghost will probably blame a character whose already a murderer for her death as a spoof so they don't give anything away, sort of like how Kat and Liz spoofed 'You Ain't Ma Muvva'

    Oh, I see. Don't you think making it lighter in tone (out of context of the buildup) will take away some of the seriousness of the soon to be seen reveal?

    A clue would be good. They might make it poignant. She'll be the last visitation I suspect.

    Hmm, they may just miss that out all together anyway.

    I would like to see Sharon reunited with Den and Angie in the Queen Vic. This would be absolutely epic;

    The other idea is to reunite all surviving members of the original cast for a one-off sketch.

    Sue and Ali back in the Cafe
    Den and Angie back in the Vic
    Dr Legg in the surgery

    for one night only.

    I was hoping Ian woukd be the visitee so looking forward to the Beale centric CIN Episode.

    I think its such a shame Wendy has passed away, (RIP) as Pauline would hav been amazing in this CIN and she no doubt would have been back for this considering how close Ian and Pauline were ( prefer their relationship to Ian/Dot but then I guess there is no other female who could serve as a mother figure to Ian anymore). In fact had Pauline not remarried and Wendy was still with us, I think Pauline would have been amazing in the who killed Lucy plot

    Seeing Den and Angie back behind the bar of the Vic would be epic. Linda could come down and say 'get outta ma pub!' Sharon would introduce them and Linda would go 'oh, alright dahlin' and go back upstairs.

    Around the 30th it would be good to see Dr Legg come over for a cup of tea and slice of battenburg.

    Hilariously producers have regretted Kathy and Pat dying and there were rumours about Cindy being alive through witness protection. I know people are bitter Pat was killed off but it will be good to see her.

    All of the characters are iconic. Maybe Lucy will give a sly teaser of the future of her storyline?

    Yes I completely agree with the bit in bold. Pauline would of been great to return. However, she shouldn't of been killed off in 2006. We could of still had a few more years of Pauline until at least 2008. Shame.

    If Pauline and Wendy were still alive then I don't even think we would of got this 'WhokilledLucy' plot. Instead, Wendy would of been the main focus as she would of been the longest running character on the show. Ian, Sharon and Dot probably would still have a big focus in the 30th but not as big as Pauline. Same as now, Ian is getting the most focus for the 30th with Dot and Sharon getting smaller stories of their own. I do miss Pauline and Wendy so much.
