ED: Donna's family
I know there are difficulties when trying to bring actors/actresses back, but funeral story-lines are the kind of time they WOULD come back.
Scott Windsor was last seen in 2008, and there really hasn't been any talk of him since. Kelly was only seen a few years ago! They were both close to Donna in the past with her being the youngest, but I think it's odd that they didn't even get a mention...even a 'they can't make it' from Bob. Do you think the writers conveniantly forgot she had a family alike a lot of soaps seen to suffer from? |

I thought that as well. Surely Kelly could have come back for a cameo for her sister's funeral plus they must have relatives in London. But as usual we have to concentrate on the fued beween Moron and Ross with Laurel and her eye darting and Paddah sticking his nose in at every opporunity.

They would only have interrupted Marlon's grief.

it was probably easier to ignore it than make up silly excuses and wasting dialogue on it.
those rape accusations seem to have killed off any future mention of scott after he went would be nice to see him back tho think he's touring in theatre. after the way jimmy and kelly's storyline ended think it would be hard to bring her back just for the funeral. |

I follow Adele Silva on Twitter and she had re-tweeted fans that were questioning her return as kelly for donnas funeral. This makes me think she wasn't asked. I don't think the guy who played Scott has been back since the false rape allegations were made against him.
For the end of Donnas character I dont think it would of been bad to re-cast eitherof these characters-they could of turned up together and left in the same episode just to say goodbye. |

Kelly's son (can't remember his name) is cousin to April, so they should get to know each other. It wouldn't have been too difficult to bring Kelly and Scott back into the show for a couple of episodes.

Yes - the funeral wasn't about Donna - it was about the effect it had on those she had interacted with since her return.

Yeah I think JB was being sarcastic. As the funeral seemed to revolve around Marlons grief despite him and Donna had been separated for years. And Marlon had the nerve to ban Ross from the funeral even thought wasn't his place as he and Donna weren't together when she died.

Kelly and Scott need to come back permanently! Although, Kelly's previous return was awful. She left on such a high - fantastic character by the time she went, only for her return to ruin it all

The actor who played Scott might not have been able to come back - he's done quite a bit of musical theatre recently. He played Fiyero in WICKED until last October (I think) and he's been touring (not sure if he's finished) in Happy Days the Musical. Fair enough the actor having a reason but they really should explain the character not being there.

When Donna returned and confided to Rhona (I think) about her illness - she mentioned something about Scott & Kelly - but I can't remember exactly what she said about them.
