8:30 announcements aren't the same

The trailer is about upcoming storylines according to the press office

There was a mention of a trailer being shown to the press, perhaps it that one?

Suspect tomorrows midnight announce is that Vicki Fowler has been recast. I've just read a rather convincing post on Facebook about it. Its a Grange Hill actress from the early 00s apparently. I will try to find the post again and post it here

Does she get classed as a "well known character"? She was only in it about 18 months.

I think she does count as important / well known if only because of who her parents are, and her being around during Den's return.

Giving who her parents are and that the storyline launched the soap into the mainstream I would say so.

But that doesn't make Vicky a big character anymore than Cindy Beale makes Cindy 2.0 a big character.

She's not such a big character that a recast is a big deal as the last actress only played her for 18 months.

Recasting a more substantial character is a bigger deal.

I think it does, Vicki's parentage was a huge breakout storyline for EE. All the hype around the rumoured recast was mostly a newspaper construct anyway.

I can see what you mean about the last actress hardly making a huge impression to warrant a newsworthy recast, though.

I think her legendaryness could definately be argued. Besides DTC seems to throw that word about. I think he called Ben Mitchell a legend. Not to say Ben Mitchell isn't a legend, but if he gets that titling then I'm sure a whole load of other characters could get that title. Especially every single Fowler

If Vicki is indeed coming back then of course she is important. She is Den Watts only blood daughter. Vicki is one legacy character that can't really have her status disputed.

I'm not disputing her place in the show. I'm disputing her being a substantial enough character who's had a part in the show already to warrant buzz about a recast.

Recasting Michelle Fowler is a big deal. The original actress played her for the first decade of the show. Recasting Vicki Fowler who was only in it for 18 months in the first place isn't such a big thing.

It's like with Ben Mitchell, an important legacy character but his recast wasn't all that much of a big deal.

I see your point. But having Vicki return in time for the 30th and having her on screen for the 30th year would be a big deal when you think about how important her conception was in getting the show to take off in the way it did. She may have only been in it for 18 months as an adult but she spent 10 years on the show as a child. I think Vicki is well established enough for casual viewers to know who she is.

Wasn't there a trailer shown at a recent press conference? It's most likely the same one. Can't wait to watch it.

But..... you're still missing my point.

She's not established enough with one actress to warrant buzz about a recast. She's not yet had a substantial part in the show as a character outside of being "Michelle and Den's daughter".

Peggy being recast after being played by Barbara Windsor for the last 20 years is huge. Vicki being played by a new actress after the last one played her for 18 months over 10 years ago is not.

Yeah but who created the buzz? it wasn't EE. The BBC haven't even acknowledged the recast is happening and the article that claimed such a thing didn't hold one single quote from DTC himself about a recast. All we are to assume is that a well known character is returning with a new head. Vicki fits into that description.
