Do you think Michael French will ever return to EEs?

I was just watching some episodes from 1996 (my fave EEs year ever) and Michael is just so strong as David. Part of me doesn't want him to return as same as Steve Owen he is remembered as a memorable EEs character who hasn't been tarnished by cheap writing.

I would be intrigued to see him with Carol and Bianca now though.

IIRC at the time there were a lot of rumours of a bust-up between him and Coulson that got very personal - I really don't know if they're true (papers going on about him having an affair with her or her husband! One or the other iirc - like something out of EE); but it may explain why he has never returned, despite his willingness to make returns on soap shows.

Never heard that one, I do remember the rumours that he was bisexual though

Mmmm. I remember the story - but it was in the tabloids - and I remember specifically reading (because it stuck in my mind) about the fact that he left somewhat hurriedly because he/BBC bosses felt they once it "came out" he would no longer be able to play a "hearthrob" convincingly.

I thought what rubbish at the time...... but because he has never returned, and yet he is obviously willing to go back to shows (Holby/Casualty) maybe there is something to it.

Certainly if there is, he will never go back while Coulson is there (or probably Palmer).

The media crucififed him about his personal life, him being gay or bisexual.

Plus he fell out with some people... he said never again and I blieve him.

David Wicks has huge family on the street what a shame.

I don't want him back in EE for the simple reason that he is simply fabulous in Casualty!

Forget about Michael French. I want to see Nick Berry back in EastEnders.
