It looks like Sharon will not be back in the Vic anytime soon and my dreams of Cora as Landlady are not going to happen.
The Vic is central to the show so it my view LN needs to freshen it up completely by bringing in a brand new family, it's been far too long since we had a new family introduced so its time...

It worked for Roxy and Ronnie I guess...

The square does need some new blood in 2013 and I hate Kalfie in the Vic...well maybe I just hate Alfie in the Vic, Kat can be great still but it feels like Alfie is the manager of the Vic and Kat is just his wife who works there from time to time, if they redressed that balance they would be alright...

If Phil suddenly Dies, who will inherit the Vic?
If Ben is still locked up?

Grant would I guess ^^

I agree definitely need a new family to spice things up a bit! A new Mitchells if you will! Bugger all excitement coming from the current Mitchells, in fact apart from Joey and parts of the brannings (IMO) theres not much excitement from anyone! the syed affair is dull and repetitive from when he was with amira cheating with christian! We need some new trouble makers on the square! Like when the millers arrived and caused a huge stir! been a long while since we had that! x

Grant and Sharon in the vic I would not count her out of the vic for good.
Louise and Ben would. Ben would not be able to touch it while inside and Louise is too young. Unless Phil has written a will expressing his wishes. Last time he was inside Sam looked after everything and then lost it bless.

Kat just needs to go and have Phil and Roxy run it.

No, The Vic doesn't need a brand new family; it just needs to get rid of the Moons (or more specifically, Kat). Kat has sucked all of the life out of the place, I'm fed up of seeing her miserable face behind that bar.

The Vic needs to be put back at the heart of the show; Sharon running it with Alfie and Roxy would be great.

I not only want Alfie out of The Vic but out of the show.Shane Richie is hugely overated in terms of ability and popularity.

However i think Alfie being axed is just wishful thinking as i think it would take a bold EP with pots of courage to axe Alfie and i dont see it happening.Love to be proved wrong.
