According to her fb, and before anyone says this defo seems the real one. Someone wrote on her wall saying that according to the soap magazine, not sure which one but she is returning in a couple of months and she replied that the door has been left open for her to return. Be good if she does return as i really like her.

Absolutley ridiculous thing to post!!! Trying to make the OP seem like an old perv.....

you assume he is looking up FB profiles for 15 year old girls??? if so why? cause he looked up this one girl from Eastenders who (for some reason) is being talked about a lot right now.... people are bound to be curious as to her leaving.

Seems like your just trying to make an issue out of nothing.

She is not the worst actor in soap. For her age and considerong this was her first acting role, she is quite a good actress. I hate it when people start moaning and saying so and so's a rubbish actress/actor. A lot of people are probably just jealous. Shes better than everyone of all her critics, same with Charlie Jones as they're the ones in a soap. You can't really critisice when they're is no one on here is an actual actor/actress in a soap. If you were another famous actor, then fair enough but none of you are so don't critisice as your not the ones who have been picked to be in a major soap. If she was'nt good enough, then they would of either re cast her years ago or not hired her. Same with Charlie Jones. Don't critisice, just makes you sound jealous!!!!!

Sorry but your absolutley wrong... I am not jealous of any one in soaps.. I have no desire to be an actor, and am happy thankyou.
I am being objective.. your not, your clearly a fan of Madeline.. and so can't see her faults..... as an actress she is not great... anyone can see this and its not about being jealous... its about enjoying a soap and having it be believable.
Look at the young girl who plays Belle Dingle in Emmerdale.. or the little boy who plays Tom in Hollyoaks..... they are both far superior than Madeline and Charlie (as you brought him up) Tom has been acting his socks off since he was about 4!!

Madeline is a Madeline reciting lines in front of a camera... she shows almost no emotion, her facial features do not change..

However Belle dingle or Tom Cunnigham they bring there characters to life!!

Your defending Madeline and Charlie.... saying if there that bad they would not be in it anymore..... interesting cause Charlie has been axed and Madeline is probably leaving cause she has had about 3 scenes in the last six months..... I wonder why that could be?

The reason why Madeline has only had about three scenes in the last six months is because she has been doing her exams. Thats why there has been nothing of her and Jay as they have been doing their exams. If she was a rubbish actress, why would she have been given the storyline of running over Max. Surely they would have given it to someone else if they thought Lauren could'nt act. For all you know, that could be how she has been told to portray lauren. No emotion. You don't know how she has been told to play her. Im sometimes like that in real life. Don't portray any emotion. Thats how some people are. Im not necassarily a fan of her, im not really a fan of anyone if im honest. I just think that its harsh, especially with Charlie at that age getting all this critisicm. If you were a 13 yr old boy, how would you like getting all this critisicm. Some of the things that are said are quite harsh and some people may take it as bullying in a kind of way. You don't know what their states of minds could be, take Christopher Parker for example. Look what happened to him when he started getting critisicm and things about his public life came out. Now hes scared to go back into acting. If your a 13 yr old boy in a major soap, the producers obviously had faith in him and Maddie and then they read some of the stuff that gets said about them, how would you feel.

This is hilarious.


So they have created a character who is never supposed to show emotion? Ever? Seems abit pointless...

I've seen her portray some emotion but i know people who in real life are very downbeat and don't seem to ever portray emotion. They like to keep things inside them, im like that as well sometimes. I don't show my emotion. I keep it locked up inside me. There are people like that.

I hope not to be portrayed by a different actress. It does'nt seem right when a character is recast. Not within a couple of months of them leaving. Apparently the door has been left open for her to return but surely not if she is getting re cast.

You're spot on.

I'm jealous of a 15 year old girl who's just been sacked from a soap opera.

Not jealous of Steve McFadden, Adam Woodyatt, June Brown or even Simon Cowell or Cheryl Cole. But Maddie whats'her face - because she's that damn successful and talented.

I dont see Madeline returning . i see a recast .If they were not recasting she would be getting a proper exit storyline imo .it was all to rushed .

My guess is that they decided to make Tanyas one off episode Madeline last episode and to have a new actress for when she is back full time .

How would they really explain her absence over a long period of time .....

I don't think she's that bad...

As for Charlie Jones, well I don't rate him. I think the only reason he's lasted so long is because Barbara Windsor likes him! Though to be fair he is slightly better than he used to be.

I dont see why they would axe her if they wanted her back .

She is at the age where she could have become full time .If they didnt want her in the show much they could have kept her on part time and send her away to school and have her return for christmas etc....they must have had a good reason to get rid of her ......i wish they had not axed her as i thought she was a good actress but with Tanya coming back i would think a recast is the only way of being realistic or kill her off which i dont think they will do so close to Bradley dying .

I think Ben and Lauren will both be recast at some point. Both characters have a lot of potential further down the line, but putting aside what you think of their acting abilities, Duggan and Jones are both quite young-looking. That's not a dig at them, but I think it makes sense to recast with perhaps more 'mature' looking (most likely older) actors to use them to their full potential. I hope my post doesn't come across at all offensive or a personal slur towards the actors.

That is rubbish. He lasted this long because the previous producers either didn't think he mattered as he was only occasionally featured or didn't want to be the one to sack a child actor. She comments on how she loves Charlie a few times and all of a sudden she's the only thing keeping him on the show!

I'm sure she does like him but I very much doubt she'd demand he stayed if a producer did decided to write out Ben. There must be tonnes of other cast members she has also liked in the past who have been sacked too. After years of working on the show, she knows how things works and that no one is bigger than the show.

I think you are right ,, maybe they felt Maddie didnt fit in with Lucy , Peter etc....

I am not sure that Maddie was acually axed or if she decided to leave herself but either way i think she will be recast for Tanya's returna nd Ben will likely be recast within a year or maybe two .
