Shame they can't keep these exits under wraps. Makes it all a bit more interesting.

Charlie had loads of potential when he came in. It never quite transpired.

I like Charlie. He has so much untouched potential, I wish they hadn't written DB out.

That's what Roxy thought when she first saw him.

I think it's a huge Shane. Charlie had plenty of mileage, plus He was a relative of Dot's.

Ah well confirmed Surprised he has been written out though. I suppose when They killed his dad, his mum left, Grandma in prison and ruined his marriage it was always going to be on the cards. One of their better characters before the affair, with so much more potential. not sure what they are thinking at the moment. Another exit added to the list

Surprised to see Matthew with him in those pictures

I don't think that Roxy will go with him. I think that she will plan to but then, Ronnie stops her from leaving.

Weren't we warned that there would be a lot of cast movement, over the summer?

I don't get why. Up until January he was a pretty major character, did they just not have plans going forward past that point? It's quite lazy to write out a character like Charlie who actually does have lots of story potential, if only they weren't so afraid to not have Ronnie and Roxy living in each other's pockets.

That's both of my favourite new additions under Dominic's leadership cut now, the other being Aleks. Why can't they let the sisters grow and actually have separate lives and long-term partners? Back to square one again..

Wasn't that denied? lol

I hate big cast movements. And I don't actually think EE need it. Just disappointing that they aren't using the talent they have and giving them good stories

Maybe. I thought that the bit about the names was denied.

I agree with the second bit of your post.

Agree with this. I can't help thinking it would've been better if they'd killed Ronnie off at New Year instead of that (boring IMO) coma storyline - which she will no doubt make a full recovery from with no lasting effects what so ever!

Agree with this.

It is rather Lazy. They obviously don't want to split the Sisters up. Which is what is badly needed I think. They need to have their own lives like you said. The Cotton name isn't going to have much to go on now either in the square.

Ronnie I have no idea where they are taking her. But the last few months have been pretty pointless because of the breaks. We are going to get a couple more months out of Charlie which is pretty quick now considering. He hasn't been on screen for about a month? No doubt Ronnie will get with Vincent and those two will be doing dodgy deals and scheming and Roxy will be dragged down even more

Can't say I am surprised he still has lots of potential but they needed to cut the wage bill for Kathy, Gavin, Carmel and whoever else is on the way in. I am surprised he has Matthew with him.

Plain daft. They axe the likes of Aleks, Lola and Charlie, who have all been great, and keep the dreadful Cokers and their slimy grandson. Not to mention we are losing Carol, Max and Liam whilst keeping Sonia. Hang your head DTC.

Can think of a few more to axe before him though.

I'm surprised about Matthew too. Although I suppose he has been the one to bring him up. If he does leave with the baby then I'm sure Ronnie really will go mad

Unless this is leading To a Ronnie exit further down the line.

Can someone make of all the actors/characters leaving this year? It's like every weak we get told that someone is leaving.

I guess this is how they will write Rita out while she does Panto over Christmas then once that is over she will return to the square.

Another character with bags of potential wasted. We should have known as soon as he got involved with Veronica the Queen of Tragedy his days were numbered.
