This has to be one of EE biggest unresolved storylines- Grant Mitchell's secret son in America who is now 16...

I wonder if Mark Jnr knows who his real Father is? Has Michelle ever told him? Does Sharon know?

A possible Courtney/Mark Fowler Jnr romance could happen if Ross Kemp decided to reprise his role of Grant Mitchell and they casted both Courtney and Mark Fowler Jnr...

Personally think it would be funny to have Denny stuck between Courtney and Louise!

If Sharon and Phil ever got married I'd love for them to bring back Grant, Courtney, Peggy, Louise, Michelle and Mark Jr for the wedding. It would just be awesome!

I'd absolutely hate a storyline as contrived and sensationalistic as that, in all honesty.

Mark Jr & Courtney: We're in love!

Michelle: you can't be - you're brother and sister!

Mark Jr & Courtney: What?!

Grant: WHAT?!

Duff duff...

No thanks.

Contrived? Their families come from the same street and are still linked quite closely. Plus, don't they say that brothers and sisters are usually attracted to each other if they don't know they are related?

Genetic sexual attrction, yes. But it doesn't always happen and with Grant returning as the OP pointed out it would seem contrived. It's like Tanya finding out about Ava and - surprise - her casting's announced a little while later.

I understand that things are done to add excitement but if we're going to have Grant, Michelle (possibly), Mark Jr and Courtney return in the space of a few months and have this storyline play out as rapidly as that then, for me, it would seem contrived.

And personally I just wouldn't like this to happen either.

I have to agree, I wouldn't like this to happen either.

to be fair, all soaps have to be a bit contrived to keep coming up with watchable storylines. no real life street/ square will have as much drama!

everyone has their own idea how far 'contrived' it can be to still be worth watching. for me, the 'lolas mum is mandy whos mum is sharon whos mum is cora was a step to far

but this one isnt - after all its a big secret with big consequences, and has been left without conclusion for many years
grant/courtney and michelle/mark can be introduced seperatly with time and other storylines inbetween

as for sharon - imagine your childhood best friend having 2 kids - fathered by your dad and your ex-husband

jeremy kyle has nothing on this lot..............

I do want Grant, Michelle and Mark Jr back for a reveal, it's just the idea of a Mark Jr/Courtney relationship that disgusts me.

I agree with the part of your post where you said that there should be other storylines in between rather than dump them all into the Square and force the reveal on them a couple of weeks after touchdown.

They could do it without needing a return of grant/Michelle,

Something bad happens to Michelle - she isnt dead but Mark Fowler JR Comes over to visit sharon (who he calls aunty,as they were close while she was in america),no body knows on the square that Mark is Grants son,Meanwhile For some unknown reason Courtney turns up at phils wanting to stay for a couple of weeks,Courtney quickly makes friends with abby & Lola (wouldnt she be around there age?) while Mark Makes Friends with Jay (Jay could do with a male friend),on a night out they lads meet up with the girls & theres an instant connection between courtney & mark,over 2 weeks they start going out with each other & after a month or 2 the decied to take there realonship to the next leval,while that is happening sharon is on the phone to michelle & tells her that mark has found a girl friend & its grants daughter,michelle quicky tells sharon to stop it ASAP & Tells her the truth,sharon then rushes round to phils & tells him but by the time they find courtney & mark to tell them its too late,the episode ends with courtney & mark looking up in bed.....duff,duff,duff
