With the seemingly hourly threads that appear on here claiming that a character has been/will be 'ruined' by BK, I just wondered if there were actually any EE characters left which anyone thinks haven't been ruined??

Tracey, Janine, Roxy. Can't think of anything else.

Jack's the worst but he's always been horrendous

Indeed. Jack became a joke when Santer made him into The Sperminator. His character could've been salvaged before that. So I don't blame Kirkwood for this catastrophe.

And they seemed to have forgotten Jack's wheelchair-bound daughter Penny, who enhanced and developed his character whenever she appeared. She need to bring her back ASAP IMO.

Shirley.....

People think she has but when your in love and insecure you become attached to the man your with. When she lost her kids she was in a rough state and very depressed etc then she fell in love and wanted to feel like someone needed her. She always knew Phil "never" loved her but she was desperate not to loose him.

Now she has she's starting to move on and trying to detach herself from him.

I think they're starting to develop her away from phil now and i think after
Spoiler
she'll have a new perspective in life.

She just changed personalities cos she was insecure. That's not being ruined its just giving her lots of different layers and making her complex.

I know nobody will agree but i think it would be stupid if she was insecure and never changed.

The Incredible Collapsing Cardboard Funfair. Such an iconic and underrated character.

Janine, Michael, Jean, Alfie, Dot, Roxy, Cora, Jay, Abi, Billy, Patrick, Shirley, Heather, Tamwar, Afia, Masood.
Some like Denise have been neglected.
I think Kat's the only one that's been mishandled and maybe Jack. Ben was destined to turn out twisted, Max was never a nice person.
I worry that Lauren could be ruined with the alcoholism story....I hope they handle it well.
Zainab, Syeed and Christian have had a rocky year but should recover.

Ahh, monalisa62003 we had a little fall out last week but that's sorted now isn't it! And I totally agree about Shirley!

I've always felt they've been true to her character and it's good to see other posters saying there's other characters who haven't been ruined!! Which of course there is!!

I know my post was very sarcastic and a bit of a dig at some posters about 'ruined' characters, but I do think despite my own moans about EE sometimes, I don't think BK has ruined the show and I think the guy should be cut some slack!

lol its completly forgotton about. i really hope they are developing her properly now. they don't need to split her and phil up for good just to develop her. they just need him to be more genuine with her and treat her right

We never saw shirley being in love before phil so its hard to know what she'd be like in a more secure relationship.

i would list more but i couldnt be bothered atm haha sorry!

I have to say, it is very refreshing to hear that . I think the complaints regarding Kirkwood are OTT. They blame him for everything! Do you think the show is good as it is? Or needs a bit more improving?

He has improved Janine and Jack quite a lot, and recasting Lauren and Lucy has taken the characters to another level. He's been successful with Alfie's return too.
And he's done wonders in casting, introducing and developing Michael and Cora.

I'm glad you agree about BK, T.K! Well I think the show is good overall but like with most soaps, there's things that you don't like! (human nature I suppose)! For instance, the Jack/Roxy custody result last week was excruciating to watch for the mere fact that they live 6 yards away from each other!!! Then the consequent anger from Derek afterwards that didn't make sense considering he hadn't even seen his family for years,then suddenly overnight he's all obsessed with faaaaamlee! (very Mitchell-esque would you agree??)

I also couldnt stand the Whitney/Fatboy/Tyler s/l. But I do like the Heather/Andrew s/l and Dot, Cora and Rose and Denise and Kim,The Masoods, and as monalisa knows, I love Shirley! So yeah there's positive and negative points! What about you? What's your neg and pov points??

Hard to say. But would go with Bianca. She's remained the same, she's brilliant.
All my other favourites have changed completely.

I know people are sick of saying/hearing it but it's really time for a new EP.
