Seeing as it is unlikely for Bruce Jones to return, they should recast the role and get Wyn Bowen Harries to play the part. This should coincide with Cilla's return later this year.

Or at mention what happened to him.

Bruce Jones could return, the rumours were that he got the sack because he liked his drink too much
The same applied to Charles Lawson, "get away with you", but he is due back soon

I would want a Les return, but only if Stella Price was still on the show

Les should come back.

In an urn.

Agreed. If he ever does come back we'll ask rhumble if we can borrow his noose.

Stella will never return so long as Blackburn is there.

Much prefer it if Jim came back.

Now that would have been worth seeing at the time that it was revealed that Stella was Leanne's mother; that storyline was not explored properly and was glossed over.

Lol! I hope you realise that Jim is actually returning this summer

Bruce hasn't changed. I worked with him on a panto and all he did between shows was drink and complain.

Isn't it a shame how they get caught up in a drink spiral
The late great Mat Munro was so stage nervous that he needed a "few" before he could go on. They used to prop him up, the curtains would go up and he would belt out his songs with that wondrous voice, show ended, curtains closed and off he went

Well if they still employed Craig Charles after he was caught smoking Crack, then why not Bruce Jones ?

He had a drink problem so what .

It happens to millions of people all over the world .

Give him another chance
