EE: Are there any returns coming up for the 30th?
Seeing all these reports about Neighbours having a few characters coming back for their 30th just made me think that EastEnders should get a few returns for theirs.

I don't want returns just for the sake of it though, just past characters showing up for no particular reason getting in the way of the main storyline.
What are Neighbours doing for their anniversary? Is there a major storyline leading up to it or will it just be sort look back/celebration of the past 30 years? If it's the latter then the amount of returns won't be as jarring as it would be in EastEnders |

I hope so, if a lower budget program like Neighbours can manage it, then you'd think Eastenders would be able to! Will speak volumes if they ignore their past. Sure, look to the future from April onwards, but March should be a celebration of the last 30 years (and those who bang on about realism, dont forget the big anniversary storylines they have)

Neighbours are probably killing off Harold Bishop for their major storyline .
I think for the 30th , the biggest one Eastenders could get is Ross Kemp but that is unlikely with Ross Kemp's Extreme World schedule I would be pretty happy with Paul Nicholls returning any time during 2015 . I think Joe and Sarah should return as a family . They are both related to Ian so they do have a link to the square . |

I'm really hoping Zainab or Tanya...or both if possible - they could sack Alfie if they're short of cash for their salaries...and Sonya could give them the charity calandar money towards it too...What do you say Sonya?

Peggy and Grant for a limited period. David Wicks surely needs to make an appearance as he knows about destroyed CCTV.

There's been so many returns this year and it's boring!
It's time to move onto new things with EE they are stuck in the past too much as it is. Trying to do greatest hits (even though it was said they won't). Get in some new characters and new SL's. |

Dan Sullivan should return - maybe he could kidnap Sharon to get money from Phil.
Also with Carol being there he still has links to the square |

I think DTC will certainly spring a surprise return for the 30th!, seeing as all the episodes in the week's anniversary will have a live element to it I think its safe to say one of these will involve a returning character, imagine Grant turning up, DS would go into meltdown

I would be very surprised if there are no surprise returns on the 30th. Or over Christmas if I am to be honest. DTC likes surprise returns remember.
Thinking about it we know absolutely nothing about the anniversary week other than there will be live segments in every episode and one 100% life episode and the killer of Lucy will be revealed. Nothing else about the plot's has been revealed at all. This time five years we knew there was Ricky and Bianca's wedding and the returns associated with it happening and that Bradley would depart around the anniversary. |

I hope Ryan returns in EE and Little Mo as she hasn't been seen onscreen since May 2006

Binnie and Della most likely. Or even Minty if they need a proper hard as nails type bloke around.

Peggy, Grant and Sam (Kim Medcalf) please! If they could get Ross Kemp back, it would definitely be an achievement, his return would have to be a surprise one though!! Also really want a Chrissie return - 10 years since the murder of Dirty Den, what would Shazza say? Perhaps a Sean Slater return? Would also be a big achievement. But I get the feeling we'll see the likes of Tanya, Jean (who I love but wouldn't be a big deal), Zainab and Robbie Jackson returning.

Thought of Tanya returning makes my stomach turn. The show would take a massive step back.
For me it's great right now and doesnt need any more returns...aside from recast Martin. If anything it still needs to cut some characters. |

Yea i would try and bring Peggy and Grant back for 6 months and really advertise it well it would surely bring back some lost viewers as nothing else dom has done has done this i would also try and get tony jordan and sarah phelps back on the writing team also bring back Charlie slater and Jean Slater for good and maybe Zainab for good any other returns would just have as guest appearances then after next years returns no more in 2016 no more returnees for a good couple of years!

They have brought in new characters and most of the returns have been short term ones for valid reasons.
