I think there's a lot of deadwood in the cast ATM, and far too many new characters, who most of are unsuccessful... Who would you get rid of if you were EP?

Mine would be:

Tosh
Lee
Dean
Lola
Donna
Aleks
Dexter
Fatboy

Lola is a fantastic character. Donna and Aleks are residents of the square. It's more realistic to keep them. You don't boot someone out because they don't have a storyline or else everyone in the current cast would have left at one point or another.

They're really boring though, too many new characters!

Yes there is still deadwood in the show- My big five have not changed and need to go in the next cull-

DEXTER
FATBOY
TOSH
DONNA
KIM

I also think Alfie, Billy, Tamwar & Abi should be reviewed.

The only people I wouldn't care about in the slightest leaving would be Donna and Tosh, Dexter as well I suppose but I doubt he's coming back full stop.

I don't hate Tosh anywhere nearly as much as I thought I would but if her and Tina end (and I hope they do because I get bored often by their scenes) then there's no real place for her in the square and I'd be happy to see her go. With Donna there's already no place for her in the square full stop so I'd have no arguments seeing her leave as well. I know that residents are necessary in the square and not everybody can have big story lines but I've just never been able to get behind Donna as a character

I really hate the term deadwood. You and Vaslav throw it around at every given opportunity.

Tamwar. I'd either axe him or shake up his character in a big way...

I feel the Masoods in general have become a weak group of characters, which is a pity given how strong they were as a family unit a few years ago. Zainab and Syed really were the core of that family and their exits has left the whole clan a bit confused, watered down and without purpose.

Why does everyone want to get rid of Dot? Shes been in it since 1985, and only had one major break!

I agree with some of the choices like

Dexter- they've made his character into a one that always NEEDS to have a fling or attempt too
Abi - she annoys me, just in general
Tosh - although i did feel sorry for her yesterday, she does my head in usually
Sharon - because i just dont like her
Peter - hes obsession with lauren is kinda creepy (not as creepy as dean is to linda)

Dexter
Fatboy
Shirley- even with her family coming to the show, hasn't made her likeable for me. She always stands in the background with her sour face & running after Phil.

Cora and Sharon. Good god the rage I feel for those two is beyond. I cannot deal with Cora's continuous swaying every time she speaks and Sharon's wide eyed whispery pouting every five minutes. Grr!
