Chris Simmons - give him a part in a soap!!
Chris Simmons played Mickey Webb in The Bill and he's been circling around the soaps and continuing dramas for a few years now.
In Eastenders he played the guy who slept with Kat in the alleyway a couple of years ago. In Holby City he played a patient a couple of years ago too. In Doctors he played a guy who had been in prison and his mum was dying a few months ago. In Casualty he has had 3 guest spots - 2 being in the last 18 months. Going by what usually happens, he should become a regular! Chris is very talented and Mickey had a lot of fans when The Bill was on. I hope a producer somewhere is thinking up a role that he could play. What do we think? |

Mickey was one of my favourites and Chris did a great job with the rape storyline and the football hooligan one.

Do you think he should be in a soap as a regular? |

I'd love him to get a bigger part in a soap - I think he's very talented and can play some really heavy storylines.
I'm surprised that he's not got a full-time gig, tbh - but there are a couple from the Bill I think that of. |

I agree. I loved that The Bill never forgot about Mickey's past and Chris played him brilliantly.
Do you think he should be in a soap as a regular? Chris is very capable and great at emotional material so he'd do a good job. As Mickey he also had that likeable charming friendliness. He's quite adaptable and could do well given a chance. Like you, I liked that his past was acknowledged at times and I adored his friendship with Jack. They did a great job of showing the lingering effects of rape. |

He is best suited to EastEnders I think.

![]() One quick bunk up with Kat shouldn't stop him returning more permanently as a different character. Another good Bill actress who'd be good in a soap - maybe Emmerdale - was the one who played loony Cathy Bradford. |

Oh Lord, that's just reminded me, I met him in a London bar a few years ago! Totally forgot about that!
Anyway - yes he should. I'd also like to see the actor who played Terry Perkins in EE. |

They should get the actor that played the nasty piece of work Gabriel into Eastenders. That might work.
Smithy also needs to get out of hospitals and into Walford

I also wanted Smithy to be in Eastenders, but at least Alex is working nearby
