Pat is one of EE biggest characters and with her leaving, surely a full time return of another EE legend is on the cards? Pat will leave a huge gap and it would be lovely to see somebody from the roots of the show return. Obvious candidate would be Sharon

But under Kirkwood, no doubt Sharon would be a bitch to everyone and would have returned after just losing another husband, having a miscarriage and losing all her money. Oh and she'd have an 'explosive' affair with Tyler. :sleep:

Sharon and Pat are not at all similar. How would she fill the gap?
I'd like her to return yes but to compare her to Pat is a bit silly. |

I adored Sharon and would be upset to see her return under Kirkwood looking at what has happened to Kat, Alfie and the programme in general. I’d love to see Sharon return when Eastenders is consistently good/stable again, but at the moment I wouldn't feel like her character was in reliable hands. I think that in light of that, I’d actually rather no one interesting/important returned to fill the space left by Pat until bigger issues have been ironed out.

Michelle and her kids including Vicki should return...this could then lead to the return of Sharon and her child. This could open up future returns for Grant and later Peggy for a brief stint sometime.
Not only would this strengthen the oldest family on the Square, the Beales, it would bring the Watts and Fowler families back to the Square, also strengthening the Mitchells with the returns of Grant and Peggy... Also with David back on the Square, Deano and Carly could return too.... There is lots of scope for the history of the show to be represented imo

I don't think Scarlett and her dodgy American accent should ever be let loose on British TV again...I think a recast would be better...I never found her to be a great actress, she was great at being annoying though
![]() I think Sue tully is reluctant to return-Could Michelle ever be recast or is that a big no no? |

I think her 1 episode stint showed that her character has run its course, but I did like her when she was a regular...

I like this idea but i think it should be done gradually as a few current characters would need to be axed to make room and if there was a huge influx of previous characters with close connections to each other all moving back to an area where they all used to lived within months of each other then it would seem really unrealistic. It could probably be done over a period of 18months or 2years though. Also i would like to throw in Clare, Diane and Danny Butcher (Franks illegimate son) into the mix to give Janine some family she can interact with as the ones there now dont seem to like her for some reason
![]() I like the idea of extra Butchers, one of them could be close to Ricky...he doesn't seem to have many friends. |

No never. It would be like recasting Sharon. Even recasting Lucy Beale is a stretch tbh.

No idea. Pretty much all the past legends are now dead- often having been killed off for short term attention and ratings.

Bringing back Michelle Fowler would be an absolute disaster either way; if Tully got the role people would complain that she had no reason to return (which she doesn't - at all) and no plausible storylines (ditto), whereas if a new actress was cast then regardless of how well she did people would narrow it down to the fact that Tully wasn't playing her, so it'd be considered a huge mistake.
Why the hell does anyone want her to return anyway? Why would she? What would she do? "I've come back to Walford despite all of my family being dead or no longer in the area because..." ?? |

IMO Michalle's character has been ruined for snubbing all the births, funerals, marriages etc of her friends and family over the years.

Michelle was a crap character, but she's become a sort of legend purely by association (Pauline and Arthur's daughter, Mark's sister, Sharon's best friend, had kids to Dirty Den and Grant Mitchell). She was a supporting character at best and should never return.
