EastEnders and Corrie both have characters that are not working but the problem I here ialot is that budget restraints are putting restrictions on casting directors from bringing in new actors.

For example if EE wanted to bring back Ross Kemp or Michael French or bring in an established name he or she would probarly command between 200-250k a year, that would mean that the show would probarly have to axe characters on salaries of around 60-70k a year - that would mean axing some characters-

so axing the likes of Tyler, Whitney, Joey and Alice who probarly all earn around 60-70k a year could bring in a big name...

I dont think Tyler, Whitney, Joey and Alice earn any where near 70k
Maybe altogether they do but not each
