I highly doubt this as a rumour started a few months back that Linda Henry was being lined up for EastEnders, an it was said to be false. Although it was common opinion on here that she would be great for EastEnders.

I think she is joining the show, it seems clear and she's been spotted with Laila quite a bit.
- well she's too old to be one of Charlies girls - so she could either be a sister he knew nothing about (which happens a lot in Enders, so it is probably this one) or a cousin of Charlies he hasn't seen for a long time. Or she could infact be Jane's sister which is a lot more plausable seeing as they look similar. |

If that's true it'll be SUPERB. She's a great actress and the legend of Atkins can live on

That'd be really great.. EE needs talented, well-known actors now more than ever, especially since they've characters like Juley and Spencer still running around the square. Since they're refusing to axe them.. well, at least the idea of them being overshadowed is promising.

This can not be true as Louise Berridge said in the inside soap mag that the new Slater will been played by someone we have not see before.
Also she is not another sister LB said that would be cheating. |

She's be great as any character as any character in EE.
I think that she would be great as Jane's sister maybe, she'd put Ian in his place! |

Given her age maybe she could be his Viv's sister who Charlie had an illicit affair with years ago. Viv found out, then discovered she had cancer (that is how she died isn't it?) and Charlie blamed himself for bringing on this illness by being unfaithful to her. Crazy and mad but then this is EE.
Messing aside I really hope she does join. I think she was superb in Bad Girls and I for one think the show is all the poorer without her. She cannot play a "good" person though if she is joining. She has to be hard as nails and maybe she could be the one to send Andy Pandy packing. |

if she's Viv's sister she can't be a Slater, she'd be a Harris or something else and if she was a Harris she'd be mo's daughter and Pat's neice. Viv was the only one of Mo's children who was not Pats brothers biological children (if you remember from the special, mo also has a son and daughter).
Charlie and Harry may have a sister they never knew about or she could be charlie's cousin as i suggested above. But I hope if Linda does join her character and Jane are sisters and shes not a slater (she's far to good for that). |

I think Mo and Pat are ex-sisters in law. I think Mo's brother was Pat's first husband, Brian Wicks? Though I could be very wrong on this, and freely admit that here and now.
The last time Linda Henry was mentioned as a potential for EE, I was thrilled to bits, and surely it's an obvious piece of casting. The Slaters have an aunt who the sisters sometimes go to visit, I believe? As someone else mentioned, she does look a bit like Jane, so could be her sister. Linda Henry in EE would be a HUGE step forward for the show. chuff.x. |

You are very wrong.
Pat's brother was Mo's Husband, who is know dead. Viv (charlie's wife) is only Mo's child and is the result of a previous relationship. Mo also has a son and a daughter who are blood relatives of Pat. Pat and Mo were also best -friends back in the 1960's. |

In 1992 she appeared in Eastenders as Lorraine SALTER.

Mo's first husband was Pat's Brother Jimmy, I think. That's why Pat feels so much guilt, because Mo has her believe that Jimmy died hating her. That's where the rift came from.
In relation to Linda Henry: well I can see her as either a new Slater or Jane's sister. More likley the latter. Jane comes across as a sweet 'younger sister' type. But I don't think she'd put Ian in his place... I think if she's as tough as Atkins, then Ian'd be glad to have her on his team when Phil Mitchell rolls back into town. |

If people are forgetting...
"In the early 90's Pat (feeling stale in her duties as landlady of the B & B) returned to her haunts of prostitution days of yore. Here she hooked up with old mate Lorraine Salter who was still on the game. Pat considered augmenting her income for a little excitement & although she decided against it, she ended up saddled with Lorraine's daughter Mandy." Lorraine Salter was played by Linda Henry. I'd forgotten where that brat Mandy came from (if you see what I mean!) |
