I'm beginning to enjoy the show a lot more, especially because Kat and Alfie are no longer in the Vic. BUT I do feel that Kat and Alfie should now leave the show, their story is way past complete, and they are not an interesting pairing (haven't been since their return)!

They never should have returned in 2010, the vast majority of their storylines since have been dreadful, and I feel early 2014 would be a window of opportunity for them both to leave the show. There was an opportunity to make the Alfie/Roxy pairing interesting but it was wasted. I'm so glad Roxy's free of Alfie now.

It's a shame characters like Poppy, who never receive proper, meaty storylines, are axed (despite the actress being very good), while characters like Kat and Alfie are given dull storyline after dull storyline.

Totally disagree

Jessie Wallace is a great actress and away from the Vic they promise so much. Get rid of Sharon! Now there is a character past her sell by

I love Sharon. Kat and Alfie are practically NEWCOMERS in my book!

Same here

Although if Kat did leave, apart of me would be happy, mainly because Jesse is very worthy of a career outside of EE. Her performance in the corrie film proved that.

I love Kat. Alfie I'm not to keen on, but I wouldn't want him to go. I like his friendship with Mick/Terry and Billy.

No Kat and Alfie should not leave and neither should Sharon.


If Kat can be saved, so can Sharon. Kat was on her 3rd year since her return on the show whilst she was saved, Sharon is only on her 2nd since her return. This shows that there is time for Sharon to be saved, she is already improving anyway. Once she has been redeemed, I would like her to be taken to a new direction though, like what I want with Stacey.


That aside, I'm glad Kat and Alfie are no longer in the Vic. They are fabulous characters, they just do not work in the Vic.

Disagree. They are about the only decent characters left. I'm happy they're out of the Vic but God only knows who that shower that have taken over are. Who the hell are they meant to be and are we supposed to care?

I want to see them away from the Vic before making my mind up. Kat outside the Vic has been great. Now we need to find out whether it's Alfie dragging her down, or if they were too limited in the confines of the Vic.

No they shouldn't, Kathleen Slater is a LEGEND!
I'm not a fan of Alfie, but he's grown on me a bit recently

Keep Kat, but get rid of annoying Alfie.

One of the worst moves DTC could possibly make if he got rid of Kat. Kat is probably one of the few iconic females left in the show along with Sharon and Dot, and June Brown is hardly going to stick around in the show much longer (for obvious reasons). The show needs to hang on to whatever they have left and build up from that.

I can take or leave Alfie, but I don't mind if he stays as long as it's a bargain for keeping Kat.

Alfie and Kat are very popular characters, there's no way either would be axed.

Alfie, maybe, but not Kat. There is still life left in her character and Stacey's return will give her back that familial female relationship that's she's been lacking lately.

No. They must stay.

I really want to see them happy for a long time and away from the Vic. That could be really intresting to see what they will do without the pub.

I doubt Jessie will ever be axed. I'm not keen on Kat but she's one of the biggest female characters the show has ever seen. While she may be not be as popular as she was in her hey day, she's still made alot of impact.

Anyway, I have a feeling 2014 is Shane and Jessie's last year on the show anyway.

Just out of curiosity KK, Why do you think that?

Love Kat and Alfie, Jessie Wallace in particular is a great actress.

Also think Sharon is fab, and as others have said her last year on it hasn't been great but that's down to the poor writing she's had - now that DTC is in charge, she seems to be on the up.
