I just found this article

http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/d...r-says-4811148

Right down at the bottom Chris says he was gutted he was never asked back to Eastenders after his short stint as Len Harker and said he would love to work on the show again.

I think they should contact him, he was set for a return initially I think but Pam St Clement got ill. Still there is no reason why Len couldn't turn back up in Walford, it seemed like he knew the place of old.

Or they could bring him in as a new character. Maybe the guy Gavin Sullivan was so scared off he had to fake his death

He could even play a new character, it's not as if Len was in it for long. He could be a friend of Busters or Vincents.

Eastenders was made for him. Also, no matter how old he gets, he's an amazing looking guy. I loved watching him when I was a teen in Running Scared.

Which is why I am surprised he has never been given a regular role.

He only appeared on four episodes in August 2007. Apparently the initial plan was to bring him back in late 2007 as a long term love interest for Pat however Pam St Clement became ill and reduced her filming commitments so Len's return was delayed. Then following the death of Mike Reid they started planning Frank's funeral and wanted Pat to play the grieving widow and show that she'd never really moved on from Frank which wouldn't have worked if she had a new fella on the scene so the plan to bring back Len was shelved.

He and Pat would have made a fabulous couple.
So disappointing he never got a comeback

He would have been a great addition to EE. Agree 're him and Pat. What a shame.
