EE: Are Kat and Alfie ever Coming Back?
Somebody else here said Kat and Alfie are leaving in the next month. The spin-off doesn't start filming for half a year. That means if the actors have already finished filming EE they aren't just taking a break to make the spin-off, it means they have left EE.
DTC has said they'll be back in 2016 after a long break but reading various posts here in different threads I know a lot of people don't believe that and think they're gone for good. I'm now wondering if it's true that Jessie and Shane have left permanently but with ratings low they're keeping that hushed up for now. Maybe DTC wants to wait for EE to get back into a better place before admitting the truth? What does everybody think? Is this the end of the road for Kat and Alfie or will they back next year? |

They don't leave till Autumn time, End of Summer, there's two big twists coming up first that make them depart and start a new life in Ireland.
Early Next Year, we'll see how there getting on in Ireland, in the spin off Before they return to Albert Sq, in mid 2016 |

If they were gone for good, I don't think they would of been given a spin-off show. Because characters have come and gone, and they have never been given a spin-off show for the sake of it. DTC likely has a big story planned or is working on one now. There must be a reason why Ireland has specifically been chosen and why us viewers need to see these events actually take place, not for them to ocurr off screen and mentioned months later. It won't be plain sailing for them in Ireland, otherwise it would be a very boring spin-off series.

I don't think they'll return under DTC, it's fairly clear he has written them out. If he valued Kat and Alfie as Eastenders characters he wouldn't want them off screen for a year or more would he? Obviously they don't fit into his plans, and given how horrible their writing is under him that shouldn't come as a surprise to anybody.
Maybe they will return in the future under a different producer, who can say? I don't think they'll ever return. |

Well they arent gonna die, that much is clear, so the door is open for guest spots and maybe full on returns in the future.

I think they'll return.
I hope they do anyway. Like them or not, they're long serving characters and a EastEnders legends. They will be a big loss to the show. |

There's still so much they could do with Kat and I'm so disappointed - I was really hoping DTC would see her potential and bring the old Kat back so her return wasnt a total waste

I don't know to be quite honest!
All I know is DTC has commissioned this spin-off for them and that they are taking a break in the autumn and there will be a couple of big twists in the next few weeks leading up to their exit from the main show, (one of them could be a possible lottery win and they have been pictured in soap mags 'up west' in their best clothes) but as for their return to the main show in the future, i'm not sure if TPTB have even made that decision yet! If they don't come back I will miss them, even if no one else does! ![]()

Kat & Alfie, along with Stacey have just had new cast photos. Why would they do these if they were leaving for good?

DTC also said 'They go away for quite a bit', or something like that... So, it will probably be for a while, but it's looking like they WILL return, which is great

If DTC wanted to keep Kat and Alfie on the show he'd have them continuing their work on Eastenders until filming for the spin-off was ready to begin. They would then resume work on Eastenders once filming of the spin-off has been completed.
That doesn't appear to be the case. "Taking a break" is just code for "leaving" as it was for Letitia Dean last time she left. |

DTC said Kat and Alfie will be gone for a while. I think Kat and Alfie will leave in June because Shane Richie said Kat and Alfie would get big storylines from "January to June" in December 2014.

It does seem as though they leave earlier than the autumn then? DTC did say that they would take a break in the autumn but if they are leaving within the next couple of months and they don't start filming until the autumn then they will be already on a break before they start filming, it does smell like it might be an axing to me and maybe DTC has given them the spin-off to sweeten the deal. They might be back and they might not but I hope they do come back! |
