Everyone else is doing it, so I'm jumping on the bandwagon whilst there's still room...

Debs was Albert Square's first professional - a glamorous bank clerk who lived at no.43 (then the epitome of 80s' cool - all stripped pine and trendy black furniture) with her put-upon boyfriend Andy, a nurse.

She had an unfortunate manner and could upset her neighbours, many of whom were dubious of Debs and her bossy ways. She was percieved as being an outsider - a 'Slone Ranger' type, but surprised us all by revealing she actually came from Walford all along.

Sadly, after Andy was killed off in 1986, Debs seemed to serve little purpose, appearing in fewer and fewer storylines - though she was briefly paired with a pre-rapist Wilmott-Brown. Despite there being massive potential there, the Debs/James relationship came to nothing and she eventually left the Square in May 1987 - marrying a man she barely knew (though they had played husband and wife in 'Angels').

Now in her early 50s, Debs could easily return and rekindle her 'friendships' with Ian, Sharon and Dot...
