If Dirty Den could be brought back from the dead, you can bring Pat back, given that the fans all want it, and loathe Bryan Kirkwood for what he did. Do this and you will be hailed as the greatest EE EP ever

The decomposition and crawling maggots are going to take a huge chunk of the make up budget.

Pat faked her death as she couldn't hack living with 'Sunshine' Carol, Bianca and the kids anymore. She bribed the dodgy undertaker to put a random Moon brother in the coffin and spirited away to run a cocktail bar on the Costa Del Sol with Den Watts who was revealed as David's real father.

They come back as Bianca has buggered off and Carol will run off to defrock the vicar.

ZombiePat!

I don't see how they could without having Pat pretend she had cancer (?) As much as people want Pat back she was written out permanently with no room for a return.

I think fans would be fine if she just wandered back into the square.

Pat: Alright Roxy luv, how you doing?
Roxy: Pat? but.... I thought you were dead.....

Pat: No dear. Doctors told me I had cancer and there was nothing they could do. I was all prepared for my death when they rang up and told me there had been a mistake, it was Pat Kutcher that was dieing, not Butcher. Anyway, Derek Branning being back in the square terrified me, so I persuaded Bianca to just help me fake my death as planned and I went of to New Zealand. When Simon came to meet me at the airport he even popped some flowers on my grave to to make it look real.

Roxy: But what about the kids? They grieved you

Pat: I couldn't risk derek finding out. I'm sure they will be pleased to see me though.

Roxy: What did Derek do that was so bad?

Pat: he raped me Roxy. Hes David's father...

Roxy: ah right, my dad did that to Stacey so she murdered him, I'm meeting her for drinks later, you should come for a catch up

Pat: oooh I'm gasping for a gin, I'll see you there love, just off to unpack now and tell the Butchers the good news.

(then everything simply goes back to normal)

I would fully accept the Beeb airing a live visual apology from Kirkwood and then Pat walking in with her suitcases from her round the world cruise. Her absence would never be mentioned again.

If Nick Cotton could fake his death with the help of an Undertaker and people in costume, then surely Pat could too

I think she should just walk into Cafe and start speaking to someone about their day, nobody batting an eye, however in the background we have a calendar saying 2009 or 2010. whatever.

After stealing Janine's millions, Pat flies back to the Square in her private helicopter (sipping champagne) and subsequently takes over the Vic.

Or Pat's identical twin sister turns up, the long lost one of course.

As much as I'd love this it won't EVER happen. Kirkwood made sure Pat could never be brought back by throwing cancer, a heart attack and an on screen death at her. I do think Pat's death has damaged EastEnders irreparably but bringing her back would damage it even more. With Dirty Den there was doubt in the minds of the viewers that he was actually dead and a few plot holes from back when his body was fished out of the canal. With Pat there is no doubt whatsoever that she's dead. It shouldn't be a case of wishing she could be brought back. She should still be alive so there is no discussion on the subject.

Sadly you are right, it will never happen because there just is no way to bring her back that wouldn't involve turning EastEnders into Sunset Beach. But in years to come, when EastEnders is no longer with us, I think people will look back at Pat's death and see it as one of the nails in the coffin for a once-brilliant show.

I'm just thinking about her interactions with the Carters, her consoling Ian in the aftermath of Lucy's death and her reaction to the fire and think what could have been. Damn you Kirkwood. Worst EastEnders' decision ever, Pat could have been with us for many years to come.

Agreed. I think the losses of Pat and Pauline, the baby swap, Dirty Den's flop comeback and the combination of the Kirkwood and Newman eras will be looked to as the nails in the coffin of EastEnders. You have to give DTC credit for managing to even slightly pull EastEnders out of the death throes it was in but I personally think the damage is too severe to stop permanently. I'm making the most of this era because it will probably be the last good one.

If this era is a good one, then why is there unlikely to be anymore good ones?

Pat is one colourful EE character that should never have been axed and I for one would welcome a resurrection.

I would happily go along with Pat just strolling back onto the square as though nothing had happened.

You should totally pitch your script snippet to DTC.

Ditto! Starry can we have Kat letting Ronnie babysit the kids; given how forgiving Roxy is I'm sure Kat would be too.

Nobody will mess with the "Ninja Babysitter" so it's a great idea.

No one can deny she'd be a better Dad to them than Alfie.
