It's a difficult one because Phil and Sharon don't make the best parents and age is a factor, babies storylines can drag a character down and then you have the fact the children are pretty useless for a good couple of years but then on the other had I think having a legacy for future characters and families are also important.

Ian i think is done unless him & Jane reunite and have a surrogate baby but that is unlikely, it's been the huge downside of killing of Lucy.

I think they've left it too late, but about a decade ago they should have definitely tried to get as many babies as they could, but then again I guess it was quite frustrating and would have been tedious to have Ian Beale/Phil Mitchell father consecutive children.

Plus the point of children being pretty much useless and just a burden for the first 14/15 years after they're born.

Jesus don't give Sharon another kid. The one she's got has almost ruined her as a character.

The Mitchells have Ben, Mark jr, Courtney, Louise, Lola, Lexi, William, Janet, Ami, Richard and baby Cotton/Mitchell.

The Beales will still have Peter, Steven and Bobby and then the Fowler branch Martin, Mark jr, Vicky and Rebecca.

I can actually see the Beales being extended sideways at some point via Paulines brother Kennys family and I imagine children will be part of the mix.

I think the next best thing would be a long lost child, full formed from some random affair or one night stand lets be honest they've all got a long arse history of exes.

Haha this made me laugh because I was thinking the same thing when I wrote the post. it would be nice to see someone with Ben (I know we have Jay but we need someone a bit more Phil Mitchell type....and female) or we could have one of Ian's exes (I can't remember anyone besides Mandy but don't think she's be a good one to come back)....

No. There are enough already and potential for more.

We already have
Ben Mitchell
Louise Mitchell
Courtney Mitchell
Mark Fowler (Mitchell)
Richard Mitchell (Branning)
Dennis Rickman Mitchell
Peter Beale
Bobby Beale

And Cindy and Beth.

That's a fair legacy isn't it?

No to Phil and Sharon having a kid! One they are getting on a bit and secondly "Denny" and Sharon don't work well together onscreen. How would another child make things better? LOL at the idea of Ian making Rainie pregnant! I hope they used a condom, maybe two for good measure! Ian is ageing too so I'm not sure about him having another child. Mind you it could be interesting if he had another daughter and becomes an over protective father. Perhaps Peter could father a baby but
Spoiler
. Ben already has Lexi and is confused about his sexuality so might not have another baby.

Maybe Sharon and Phil could adopt a kid rather than have a baby.

Last year before they split up I thought it would have been a good idea to have Denise pregnant with Ian's baby. We need more Beales and a storyline showing Ian and Denise becoming parents again later in life could have been interesting. Denise is only 44 so still young enough to have a baby. There have been older mums than her Kathy was 46 and a grandmother of 3 when she had Ben.

the Beales are a little low on kids true (even more so with Peter leaving) Cindy I guess is helping, but she is not a Beale, the Mitchells on the other hand have loads of kids, they are just off screen.

Meanwhile Lexi is a Mitchell and kinda a Beale.

As has been mentioned, Ian and Phil are both too old for more kids now (shame Lucy and Peter have or are leaving) still Ronnie and Roxy can pop out a few more Mitchells.

I have more concerns about the Beales on this front than the Mitchells.

I don't think you can consider the Beales in isolation...it's always been the Beale/Fowlers. Then there are David's descendants, he was born a Beale, Pete's son. So we have Bianca, Joe, Liam, Tiffany and Morgan.

Bobby is getting to an age now where he can feature heavily in his own storylines, at least Ian has Jane to keep him going in storylines. I do feel though that maybe a long lost child of Ian's could be introduced from a one night stand? Typical I know but it'll be another Beale.

As for the Mitchell's, they could reintroduce Louise who will be 13 now. I think we need more Watts personally
