I have just read a Radio Times article (one of the very few reliable tabloids) and it spoke how there is no summer holidays for the cast and crew of EastEnders due to the declining mess it is in. I hope that this decision was made by Dominic and I certainly hope he is slightly ruthless and mean otherwise the crew will keep taking laid-back and unenthusiastic actions.

He will be even better if he plans a bloodbath. Usually I'd say that axing characters isn't always for the best but I'll make an exception this time because EastEnders has got far too many unwanted and pointless characters such as;

Alice Average actress, dull character and I find myself yawning a lot when she's on-screen!
Joey Clearly recruited for his looks, appallingly bad actor and a very unlikable character.
Cora One minute she's this drunken gambler, then she is a dictator and slating others for how they behave. She's no Peggy Mitchell and I can't personally see her lasting much longer.
AJ He's been on the show for a year now and I could probably count all of his episodes on one hand!
Masood He's nothing without Zainab!
Tamwar He was never relevant, he never will be and it amazes me how this dull man has lasted so long! It's like they are trying to publicly humiliate the poor man!
The Hartmans Sam is just awful, there's only so much gurning and possessed facial expressions I can take from Dexter and Ava is a bit of a wet blanket.
Danny Pennant Overrated in looks and acting. He's a monotone actor and I can't see him ever fully settling in!

If you re-read is says....There is NO Holiday for Dominic Not the cast members/writers or people behind the scenes. Just the Main man Himself.

''there will be no time off for new boss Dominic Treadwell-Collins.''

Cora has proved popular and Ann Mitchell has stated herself she doesn't plan on leaving anytime soon.

DCT will not axe her and in fact He won't get rid of The Masoods either seeing as he and Santer loved the family.

You can't just say that. Alot changes since 2006/2007 and just because they created them does not necessarily mean that they intend on keeping them. Right now I don't think anyone other than Kat, Alfie, Sharon, Ian, Dot, Carol, Ronnie, Bianca, Phil and David are safe.

To be fair to Danny, we've hardly seen him have any lines let alone any kind of storyline or even proper scene for Gary to get his teeth into. Anyone who saw him in Hollyoaks will know what potential he has

Personally I wouldn't say she's popular. I see her name floating about quite a lot of the "who should be axed threads" plus I never really see anyone praising the character on here but maybe I am wrong.....

He was good on Hollyoaks, but I noticed his acting decline by the time he was on The Bill. He's too monotone and he looks like he is having the worst time of his life. That's the impression I get from him anyway and all his lines ever involve is about business meetings, contracts etc! :sleep: :sleep: I understand he is a banker or whatever but that's all the topic of conversation is about!

She's in the top 10 in the 'current favourites' poll thread.

Max - Won't be axed, whenever Max leaves it will be on the actor's terms.
Lauren - She can go, otherwise we're just gonna see the same story over and over for the next 5-10 years.
Kim - She can go, don't see how she's 'funny'.
Fatboy - Same as above.
Roxy - Pretty sure she'll just go in February when she's meant to.
Alfie - Don't think Alfie will be axed, Kat needs to cheat on him a few more times before he takes her back and they finally drive out of The Square again, having brought nothing to the show since they've been brought back.
Kirsty - I think I can see some potential, hope DTC can too, don't want her to be axed.
Janine - No. Love her, she just needs to be brought back to her 'soap bitch' that she used to be. Not just a rich woman who flaunts her money and those less fortunate.
Whitney - She can go.

Max has just signed a new contract for a year.

I'd bet £500 he won't axe the Masoods but will rebuild them.
Maybe bring back Shabnam (Possinly re-cast)

Janine is also safe.Patrick has signed a new contract too
Billy again I can't see going anywhere.

DTC is hardly going to axe characters he made (or helped make) he's likely to just rebuild them.

Looking forward to the next big 12am announcement!

Will probably just be something like 'Phil is in for a huge shock as he finds a solitary hair on his head'

I agree, I'd be pleased if Denise, Shirley, Alfie, Max, Abi, Kim, Fatboy, Lola and Kirsty were all axed as well
