Inspired by the threads of who we would like to see return, who wouldn't you want to see again? Are there any characters that you wouldn't mind seeing again if they were recast?

Rosie Webster. One annoying Webster sister is enough.

Would like to see Helen Flanagan's cleavage again though, Mel lol.

Vincent from hollyoaks

Mandy - Lloyd's ex

I'm not going to go into speculation about characters rising from the dead, but those who didn't leave in a coffin who should NEVER return to our screen include:

Eastenders:
Joey Branning
Tyler Moon
Callum Monks (was that even his name? Most pointless character EVER!)
Nick Cotton

Pretty much all of those are for acting reasons although with a recast, there's probably still some mileage in Nick. The other three were pathetically bland and I'm not sure whether that was down to writing/character development or the fact that the actors couldn't do anything other than the most basic storyline.

Tanya Cross.

Would you even recognise her? I reckon she looks like a girl that's had too much work done on her boat race!

Becky CS

Ben Mitchell.

CS:
Dev Alahan, he can make his break permanent
Sarah Platt
Mary (The next time she leaves the Rovers, she can never return)


ED:
Kelly Windsor
Scott Windsor
Bob Hope's 9209201921 kids
Terry
Bernice... oh wait....

EE:
Chrissie Watt's
Joe Wicks (Unless recast, just because Paul Nicholl's was arrogant when he said he doesn't remember been on EE... LIAR!)
Tanya Branning (Love JJ but her leaving / returning / leaving / returning act is annoying me more than Sharon and her black cabs)
Denny Rickman (Just need to kill him off first)
Lucy Beale's ghost
Little Mo
Belinda
Juley and Gus

HO:
Sandy Roscoe when she leaves
Grace Black.... Get her gone and never bring her back
Myra McQueen
Debbie Dean

Peggy screeching Mitchell and her dumb, entitled slapper of a daughter.

Leave the poison Banshee midget to ponce about like the Queen of Sheba going on and on about being a Mitchell somewhere else far, far away.

For me:

EE

Ben Mitchell, unless recast
Little Mo
Naomi (Sonia's nurse girlfriend)
Sam Mitchell (probably inevitable that she will, I just hope it's Kim Medcalf)
Gus and Juley Smith
Anthony and Tyler Moon
Jodie Gold and Poppy Meadow

On the fence about Lynne and Zoe Slater, and Spencer Moon. Depends on the storylines

I'll probably add more another time.

I don't want to see any dead soap characters returning.

Defiantly Becky, an annoying overrated character. If she does return I hope she gets locked up for the crimes she has done in the past such as stealing from the corner shop and smashing up the Barlow's living room, among other things.

EE - Sean Slater...Ben Mitchell...Grant Mitchell...Peggy Mitchell...Sam Mitchell (no matter who would play her)...Tanya Branning (but I think she will be back by 2016 or so)

Robbie Jackson, Peggy Mitchell and Sam Mitchell EE, especially Peggy.

Sadly - because of the God like status of the bloody Mitchells amongst TPTB - I can see all of them returning at some point in the future.

Probably not. She does look a lot different now, so Raw-see would therefore seem distinctly different to the teenager that most people were familiar with at the time. A lot of work done since yeah lol. Always quite liked Rosie though it has to be said (not just for the reasoning I've suggested lol).

The Brady's.
Robbie Jackson
Mo Slater
Honey Mitchell

Dozy Plebster
Chrissie Watts
Kelly Windsor

Or any pretty people / models who can't act, employed by EE for the last 4 years.

Peggy Mitchell is the first one that comes to mind and I'm sure she'll be back permanently at some point. I'm usually against characters being killed off screen but in her case I'd be all for it.

Zainab as well. Couldn't stand her.

EastEnders
Ben Mitchell
Tyler Moon
Joey Branning

Hollyoaks
Brendan Brady - Hugely overrated

EE:

Joe Wicks (Unless recast, just because Paul Nicholl's was arrogant when he said he doesn't remember been on EE... LIAR!)


You don't think it was more to do with the drink ,drugs (his own admission ) he was doing straight after the show ?

I don't think it was arrogance that made him say that .

I sincerely hope and pray that Jack the plank sperminator branning never sets foot in walford again
