I thought I would do a list of storylines which were started but never finished and have more or less been forgotten about il do a list and feel free to add more, also will include storylines that just dont make sense or add up.

Silas Blissett, where the hell is is? he was last seen getting on the bus, that was very silly he should have simply gone to jail with the storyline over and done with, i mean evan if he was to return now what purpose would he have, its quite obvious most HO fans are tired with the same old murder storylines, plus he has no links left on the show or is he related to maxine? his daughter is dead, his grandson is dead and his son in law and other grandchildren are now in the states.

glenda mitchel, she was chased out of walford all because phil planted evidence against her so now her own daughters think she is a thief, what annoys me about eastenders is how phil mitchel always gets away with everything by bullying and intimadating people, glenda left and hasnt been heard of since.

sinead o conners brother in hollyoaks whats her brother called again?? well i remember he got that mixed race girl pregnant, cant remember her name but she ended up leaving with her family and we never heard from them again or what happenned with the baby, ok fair enough we recently found out she now has a new boyfriend who is playing dad to the baby but again nothing else since we found that out.

cheryl starks mum in neighours in the late 90s she went on holiday and suddenly never returned and nothing was ever said.

neighbours again in the late 90s debbie martin was cody willis best mate, she left to go america and by the time she returned her best mate cody had just been murdered but the funny thing is she had only returned like a week after cody died but when she did return she didnt once mention cody and neither her sister hannah or dad said anything to her about it, hannah was very devastated about codys death so that made it evan more weird.

Anymore people would like to add.

Roxy never discovered that Phil and Shirley stole her money.

The iconic one is obviously Billy stealing post.

Carol's one-episode long menopause.

The minute I seen this thread title I laughed because I know how much everybody loves bringing up the iconic Billy stealing the post storyline. My memory of the whole thing is pretty sketchy though, wasn't it around the same time Billy stole the money from charity, like shortly after that before being dropped? Eastenders are generally okay at wrapping up storylines although some of them haven't been wrapped up particularly amazingly. One that comes to mind is the revealing that Archie Mitchell had a secret son named Danny, while that was finished off I don't think that I have heard the name Danny Mitchell mentioned by any members of the Mitchell clan ever since.

This actually reminds me of when I used to watch Corrie there was a storyline that Ryan wasn't Michelle's real son and her real son came to live with them for a while. I don't think it was particularly well received and the other son was sent back and Michelle and Ryan got on again like nothing had ever happened, a really weird one.

Edit- As soon as I posted that I realised somebody had brought up the Michelle thing in the post above, at least I wasn't dreaming the whole storyline up!

As Steps would sing, that crap storyline is better best forgotten.

Regarding the Billy stealing the post unfinished storyline, I'm pretty sure Masood got accused of stealing someone's post during Billy's spree and was even up before the Royal Mail during some kind of inquest. I can't remember if they suspended him, cautioned him or whatever but he still got accused of something that he never did because of Billy.

Sharon's son Denny accusing Whitney of assaulting him when she worked at the school. Was that ever resolved? Did Whitney get her job back? Are the school still under the impression that she did it as Denny has never fessed up?

There was a storyline in Casualty years ago with Nathan stalking Selena but they dropped it and forgot about it.

Peter found out and told Ian, telling him to tell Phil. Ian wouldn't because he was scared that Phil would take it out on him.

What annoys me is why is Ian offering to finance Cindy's baby at all, especially as she has this money?!

I have to agree with the OP regarding Silas. I wish we had an actual ending to it although he was amazing and terrifying aswell

Danny Mitchell was axed by Bryan Kirkwood and left after it was revealed that he was after Roxy's money and wasn't Archie's son (his real dad was a double glazing rep.)

Silas Blissett, where the hell is is? he was last seen getting on the bus, that was very silly he should have simply gone to jail with the storyline over and done with, i mean evan if he was to return now what purpose would he have, its quite obvious most HO fans are tired with the same old murder storylines, plus he has no links left on the show or is he related to maxine? his daughter is dead, his grandson is dead and his son in law and other grandchildren are now in the states.
I think he is in some VERY distant way, Mitzeee was a first cousin to Heidi Costello and obviously that would make Maxine the same, though they were clearly different ages so I don't know how that ever worked out in terms of their parents. I think adding onto that, the fact that Mitzeee's mum Trish was some layabout hobo, who had never been seen or referenced again since she suddenly remembered she had a sister. It was a bit forced in and retconned.

Others to think about... I have loads but I'll stick with Emmerdale for now.

Lizzie in Emmerdale, I'm still keeping the fire burning for this one. Again, the actress was taken ill in real life last year but she has never been mentioned and no one seems to care that she's missed Christmas or New Years and that she hasn't been to work for god knows how long! #WheresLizzie

Val's kids! Okay, Paul got a mention with Val's HIV storyline but Sharon is always forgotten about. Emmerdale are so bad with family relationships, Donna swans back into town and hugs Bob yet Heath and Cathy who are her half-siblings barely acknowledge her and while we're on the subject - Bob's kids! Roxy Lockhart, Jamie, Josh and Carly, where have they all vanished from? Most of them were local! Veruca Salt was mother to two of them! Nicola King/Blackstock's mother also vanished from the Christmas card list.

Okay I could talk about forgotten relatives all day, but also whatever happened to the Holiday Village in Emmerdale? Chris Tate always used to mention it and then the Soapstars winners(The Calder/Weston's) moved into one of their cabins.

I think it's great that he is roaming the streets, Silas lives on

Sharpes were an awful family, only good thing about them was Gabby's clip clop run Maybe if they were recasted but I think it's best they remain forgotten.

What about the rising damp in the Queen Vic in EE? IIRC Mick, Shirley & Tina went to see Stan & he agreed to give them the money but I'm sure nothings been said about it since then.

Yes, didn't they vow revenge on Phil too?
