Not much point bringing back Michelle if Vicki is off is there? What with Sharon going and Leslie Grantham's card's marked, look's like Dennis is going to be very much alone in the Square come 2005.

EastEnders is doomed, honestly.

Den will be even more unpopular without his family, and Dennis will just be even more of a pretty face.

Vicki's not a massive loss as far as talent is concerned, but the show needs to work harder to conserve its cast - I mean there's nothing left!

Anyway, I'm happy about this in real terms - it means that Michelle will be unlikely to return (with a different actress). I don't see the need for Michelle to return with another actress, Susan Tully is Michelle Fowler, just like Daniella Wesbrooke is Sam Mitchell!

This is so stupid, there will be NO point to Den or even DENNIS when Sharon and Vicki are gone. Now I am SERIOUSLY worried, as IMHO the Watts are one of the best families.

Dont worry, Louise will invent another long lost love child that Den had after a quick fling with Pauline Fowler - or was it Ethel. Nothing gets in the way of a storyline in EE

So over the next few months they will be at the loss of:
Kat
Lynn
Little Mo
Peggy
Phil
Vicki
Sharon
Den
Kelly is already gone as is Kareena, Laura is dead, Paul is leaving, Janine is gone, Barry gone, Natalie, Ricky, Liam and Jack, Nana Moon seems to have disappeared, Chrissy is gone when she is to return no one knows. Thats 20 cast members! What a cull.

Well all they needed to do was get rid of Louise, Mal and the dodgy scriptwriters

I think it is a good thing she is going Chris Parker might feel the need to leave aswell now as she is one of the only friends he has there.

The Watts are the alpha family in the Square at the moment but now two corners of the family Vicky and Sharon are going, Chrissie is hardly likely to take Den back, what will become of Den and Dennis? Dennis could be a stand alone character but there are far too many of them in EastEnders at the moment. They really do need to work harder at conserving their cast, theres bits of families all over the place. As for Den Watts, Princess and Vicki gone, he's set to burn his bridge with Dennis by seducing his sons girlfriend, I really don't see how Den can work in EastEnders without his family. Although in saying that Sharon is coming back, she's only taking a few months off to do a panto.

Talent wise its no great loss to the show but character and structure wise, its a bit of a blow to an already very shaky soap.

The thing is it wansn't a cull, most of the aforementioned characters quit. Janine quit, Laura quit, Paul Sacked, Kelly sacked, Kareena is coming back, Peggy Returns but Not for a while, Phil Quit for now, Sharon Quit, but possibly returning, Nana Moon Still upstairs in the Vic somewhere, Kat 'Aving a baby, LIttle Mo Coming Back before Xmas, Vicky Quit.

I wouldnt' mind if it had been a cull by the Producers, but instead they seem to have heaped only more deadwood to the blaze. I reckon the next Executive Producer after LB will probably drop a bomb or something on the entire Square and rebuild it from scratch. The Ferreiras and Spencer would be the first to feel the cold steel of my Axe!

Kat (Jessie Wallace) did say she might not come back to EE. Steve McFadden is in talks with EE as they try to get him to come back apparently he is having second thoughts abut reprising the role of Phil.
