EE - Carly Wicks
When was the last time she was mentioned? I mean Shirley is running around obsessing about her "two boys" and the sperm donor that produced them without ever a mention for her other daughter and her grandchild.
Its like we are supposed to forget she exists in order to creating this dueling brothers idea with their mother stuck in the middle. |

It's quite disgraceful to be honest. They're going to have Shirley running all over London to find Roya while she already has a grandchild she doesn't bother with.

Thats what has really tipped me over the edge on this, I could just about deal with Shirley ignoring her daughter until this ridiculous storyline.

Shirley persuaded Dean to stay with Carly in York a few months ago after he was questioned by the police (Denise persuaded against it), so she was mentioned and Shirl knows where she is at the moment.
With Stan gone and Dean's shelf life limited, Carly returning would make a lot of sense. There's unfinished business between her and her mother. |

I would be interested to see Carly return - they left on ok terms but there is still a lot of unfinished business between them and issues to be resolved. I would like to see more of Shirley/Carly. I imagine Carly would question who her biol dad is, chances are if Shirley knew who Dean's dad was, she would know Carly's and I wouldn't mind meeting Carly's dad eventually. Preferably played by Jack Ellis - I loved the chemistry between Linda Henry and Jack Ellis in Bad Girls. Then there is the situation that Dean is a rapist - where would Carly stand on that? Also does she know that Mick is her half brother? So much scope for a Carly return, I sincerely hope she does at some point. She is also connected to Denise and Patrick - didn't she also get along with Shabnam back in the day? |

Exactly this, Shirley mentioned Carly a few months back and mentioned her to Denise prior to that. In general, why do posters have a go at characters for not mentioning relatives who are off the square when that is the writers doing? Am I missing something?

It's a bit strange that Stan never asked after Carly, Johnny or Zsa Zsa on his death bed. I know Dean is evidently his favourite grandchild but still I thought they might get a mention. Its also a bit odd that Carly never came to see Stan but I suppose they never had much contact. Still though the writers could have thrown in a line in a Monday episode where they had Shirley say that Carly and her child came over to the Vic for lunch over the weekend so that it happened off-screen.

There'll be more than enough space for Carly IMO. As I said, Stan is dead and Dean will probably be written out this year. Plus Johnny left at the end of 2014, I don't see Aunt Babe hanging around in the long term and Sylvie is only a recurring character.
Carly may be a Carter by blood, but I still picture her as kind of distinctive as she started on EE in 2006 and I doubt she knows Mick, Linda, Lee and Nancy that well. I still see her as the young woman mechanic, best friends with Dawn and had a rivalry with Chelsea. I wonder how she'd take the news that she's an aunt to Shabnam's daughter, someone she became friendly with in 2007. |

I would also like to see Carly back.
If Dean stays, it will be really interesting to see how she and Dean interact. |
