    It depends what you mean by legend? I think she was legendary for the time she was on the show but will she be remembered as an EE icon? Possibly no.

    I liked her but I don't think she was legendary. She wasn't really around long enough. She was a good character in a fallow period for the show.

    She was part of a story arc which finished, they couldn't really do anything new with her, it would just be digging up old ground

    It's incredible what a fantastic career Tracy-Ann Oberman has had despite only being in the show for under two years.

    Yes could do with making a return to really solidify this though as the recent viewers wouldn't have a clue who the heck she was.

    Den will have to factor into the 30th anniversary celebrations somehow, whether that means a reappearance from Chrissie or the revelation that Mick's father is Den Watts meaning Sharon and Shirley are related!

    Chrissie was awesome! If they can work out a decent coda for her, even a short one I will be very happy!

    Big fan of Chrissie. Had the looks, storylines and a certain edge to her character that most soap females lack.

    That's why I liked her. I like the characters who have a full arc, beginning, middle and an end.

    Soaps just trundle on forever, so it's nice to have some complete stories like that.

    Well she had a long career before EE so it's not surprising.
