ok its far fetched, but so is 90% of the storylines, i mean i for one think kathy back from the dead is far my plausible than ian managing to land denies, come on!

Kathys then bf husband was a wrong un (her taste in men never was good) he set her uo fir drugs trafficking or some such in the style of deridre barlow in corrie, but with kathy he set her up to cover up for someone else, like his other women, same age as kathy etc he forged her documents, then blackmailed kathy that if she didnt go along with this he would kill ben then come after ian and her grand children, she got 8 years in prison, whilst in prison for this womens crimes the bf faked a death and funeral for kathy, shes now been realised from prison and rightly wants to come home to sort out her life,

Gillian Taylforth suited well in the cafe.

I think a soap should suspend reality, she is not dead, unless we see her dead body.

So while in Jail for 8 years she did not once think to call her Son or even Phil who could really help her? not buying this. People need to get over all this bring Kathy back stuff because of a sketch on cid. DTC would be a fool to listen to this and let it happen. She is dead move on.

Dear DTC,

Could you please resurrect my beloved Kathy Beale through the power of Shirley's muff? Thanks. I appreciate it.

Kathy would be the easiest character to bring back from the dead so DTC could come up with something good.

The accident that killed Kathy also killed her husband. Any threat he may have posed to her or her children died with him.

I meant it plausible I'm terms that's it's unlikely but I'd believe it if done right, it is far fetched, but so is the fact Sonia lives round the corner but wasn't seen for years and that biancas move to Milto was see. Almost like her emergrating, don't get me started on the time vortex that is Manchester, plus Sharon turning up at phils years and years after seeing him last on her wedding day. It's all relitive

Plausible? Bringing characters back from the dead is automatically implausible imo. But that is just me, haha.

I think we should just forget she ever left, stick her back in the caff with Marie and there'll be no more said on the matter!

But she has been established as dead for nearly a decade. It would make the show a laughing stock imo and be a complete farce.

if ur worried about a complete farce perhaps your watching the wrong show, how many other streets do you no with hundreds of murders, not to mention the bed hopping, family members moving in next door but one just by chance, no one owning a washing machine, and having money to use the landerette, whilst still affording breccie in the cafe, lunch in the vic with at least 3 drinks, then onto the albert/ restaurant to round the day off,

its a soap, its not always supposed to be realistic, at the end of the day, kathy should never have been killed off, but actually it could be worked around, unlike some of the other wrongly dead, it just works that she could be alive.

Shes dead theyve done it before it would be stupid imo, and it should be realistic imo, Albert sqaure is supposed to be a rough area so jimbo23 all those things do happen pretty often in bad areas, I'm not going to get into what you were on about with the laundrette the cafe etc even though alot of people do go for an occasional drink on there lunch break and after work?

a rough area? have you any idea how much one of those houses would cost to rent in that part of london? i like an occasional drink but i wont go into that! as i suspend belief as its a soap and i enjoy it, all i am saying is id also believe kathy coming back, how do you no that kathy wasnt living in a "rough" area in south africa, things happen to foreign people with visit areas abroad every day, she could have been kidnapped by drugs over lords who have forced her to make a constant chain of fry ups for there army of 8 year olds, but my original theory seemed more realistic, as does they house witness protection thing other people have said, where supposed to suspend belief when watching,

well, Neighbours are bringing Madge Bishop back and she died in bed of cancer.

I think the plausible way to bring Kathy back is to have her kidnapped in Africa. Bodies get mis identified a lot. So Kathy's husband and a woman who looked like Kathy are caught in a car crash, while the real Kathy got kidnapped. In the trauma of it all, people let their emotions and false memories get in the way, you know how warped Phil, Ian & Ben are.

The houses look a bit scummy from the outside in my opinion but I cant speak about that part of london as I'm not from there I dont know the prices or anything about areas of london. And what do you you wont go into that its not every single character having a drink in the pub everyday if you keep an eye out for it you will see that each character will only be in there once a week at most?

Would it maybe work, to have Ian suffer another mental breakdown and become obsessed with the idea of Cathy being still alive? Then have some special episodes of Ian in South Africa...perhaps fleeing there whilst ill, with Ben and Phil in pursuit. Have Ian wandering around desperately searching for Cathy....only to actually find her!!

I haven't worked out the details as to why Cathy would still be alive, and totally estranged from her family, but I'd love to see them reunited in some well written and poignant episodes away from the square in South Africa.

Hi guys,

I don't post here often, long time lurker

I just wanted to post my opinion on the bringing characters back from the dead. This is in no way a dig at anyone or anything like that, i love reading the differing opinions that everyone on here has, and everyone has the right to their own opinion, so here is mine on bringing characters back from the dead.

Everyone saying that this is impossible, or it would ruin the show, "EE has become a farce", would do well to remember that truth is often stranger than fiction.

How many times in the news have you heard a story that is almost unbelievable.

Look at the likes of an extreme case a few years ago, in which Josef Fritzel had his daughter held captive for over 20 years in a secret basement below his house. Not only that but he also had children with her who had never been outside in their lives, and his wife knew nothing about it.

Now imagine EE had a storyline like this. Take for example Diane Butcher who ran away from home. what if she was never found, everyone assumed that she just ran away, but actually Frank had been holding her in a secret basement below their house for years.
Obviously it's not in character for Frank to do this, and i am in no way saying that these characters should have had this storyline, im only using them as examples as Diane had run away from home.

People may say that it is a farce, EE is a shell of it's former self, full of sensationalist crap, but the Fritzel case is a prime example of truth being stranger than fiction.

Even last night in the news a man and his young daughter were asleep in their home, when there was a gas explosion and their house was pretty much demolished. Both of them came out of that with only a couple of scratches on them.

Then you have some people saying that Kat in EE, after the fire, didn't have burns severe enough, and it was stupid of them to do the storyline if they weren't going to do it properly. Again this story of the father and daughter is a prime example of truth being stranger than fiction.

I've provided a link below to the father and daughter story, it's almost unbelievable that no one died, or was at least seriously injured in that blast.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...uthampton.html

So bringing Den back from the dead, or the possibility of Kathy coming back, may be almost unbelievable, implausible, laughable, but then again, so are some true life stories.

If this can can go for £875,000 some of the properties on the square must be worth close to a million!!!!

I'm open to all ideas on how to bring back Kathy. It would be better than keeping her dead and it is better than witness protection. However, I hate the idea of Kathy being in jail etc. My idea would be for her to have been abused by Gavin, had a mental breakdown and for her to have tampered the brakes of his car with the assistance of Ted Hills after he threatens the life of Ben, Ian, Peter, Lucy and Bobby. Ted gives her a fake passport and she goes to Spain but Gavin dies in the accident (which police initially believed was joyriding) and was in the car with his mistress, woman called Julie or something. Ted Hills identifies Gavin's mistress as Kathy whereas Kathy is really living in Spain recovering from a mental breakdown after years of torment. She tells Ian, Ben, Phil that she was in 'witness protection' from South African criminals but Nick Cotton discovers the truth and then blackmails her about it.

Don't tell us, tweet or write to DTC. If you tweet get people to re-tweet and favourite to show support. Think he could be persuaded to bring her back if there is enough support from the public.
