Thanks. I've always wanted to see her in EE. My first thought was - Bring her in as Derek's ex. But I reckon she'd be better off a Suzy.

Yeah, Camille or Linda robson would be great as Suzy

Because the actress was fired and things had to be re-written, I always felt there was unfinished business between her and Phil and would like to see that revisited.

I actually liked Maggie playing Suzy and wouldn't mind her returning.

Yeah, because she clashed with Sam Womack, the guy who played Sean slater and Barbara Windsor on set.

Am I the only one who spots a flaw in this?

Maggie O'Neill was great as Suzy! I'd only want Suzy back with her in the role because she had such a commanding presence as the character. As much as I like Robson and Coduri, they're not Suzy. Suzy is a sexy, seductive ice Queen - neither of those have much sex appeal!

But Coduri would be great as April. You could certainly buy Coduri and O'Neill as sisters.

Camille would be a devil in the sack I reckon...Well..Jackie would.

I for one hope we never see Suzy return. Too many Brannings.

I will never see anyone else fit into this part, her acting is excellent.

Totally agree, her role in Shameless kept me gripped. She was the only reason I watched for a long time.

I'd love to see Suzy and April both brought back - it was reported Maggie O'Neil didnt get on with Sam Womack and Rob Kazinsky and they've both left the show now so that shouldnt be a problem. I dont think they should recast her Maggie was brilliant as Suzy.

Camille Coduri would a be a good recast for April if Debbie Arnold didnt want to return - they do have a strong resemblance. Although Coduri is 10 years younger than Arnold - but seeing Debbie Arnold on Corrie the other week she looks about 15 - 20 years younger than her actual age anyway.

Maggie O'Neill is one of the best actresses in the country. I adored her as Sheila in Shameless - probably her best ever role.

I have seen some clips of her in EastEnders, obviously the infamous Christmas scenes, and she is just sublime.

Camille Coduri would be a much better fit for April rather than Suzy. I don't think a return for Suzy is needed either, I didn't really like her and if it wasn't for her goodbye speech I very much doubt anyone would want her to return. I think we have enough Brannings, but April would be more interesting as a returnee because of her relationship with Carol who is crying out for a friend now Glenda has left.
