i have not heard or seen of her since she left the role of Sam Mitchell!!

i would absolutely love her to be cast in the role again (highly unlikely i know) - yet see no reason why not, if they can ruin the character progression of Sam by bringing back Daniella Westbrook for what was in the end a pretty pointless stint, then they can ruin that short era by bringing back Metcalf again.

i know eastenders has a long line of incompetent fools at the healm, but Sam must surely want to return to the square again at some point and she just must be played by Kim again !

I think I read she has a family now, not seen her in much either.

I think bringing back Daniella Westbrook was purely nostalgia of having both Ricky and Bianca back at the same time, all three original actors, they took a risk and why there wasn't any major issues at the time that we know of, it just wasn't the same, Daniella's Sam just acted like a airhead, Kim Medcalf is the better Sam without a doubt.

I'm not sure where she would fit currently Ronnie and Roxy seem to fill the role requirement at present.

This is her resume http://curtisbrown.co.uk/client/kim-medcalf/cv

Her last tv credit was in 2010 over 5 yrs ago, seems she does some theatre.

Much preferred her Sam to Daniella's
and I'd be happy to see her return.

I'd love her to come back. She played Sam so much better than Daniella- I think Sam seemed more classy/sophisticated when played by Kim, she could be annoying sometimes but was still likable.

A good return storyline could be Aunt Babe selling her share in the Vic (if she still has it) to an anonymous buyer. Turns out to be Sam played Kim Medcalf. I just loved her portrayal of the character! With so much going on with the Mitchells that could be another thing for them to get their heads around.

I could live with her bringing her son Richard over. The damage was done but now Jack Branning doesn't live in Walford.

Or it is revealed that Aunt Babe swapped Sylvie's third daughter Sam (played by Kym) with Peggy's daughter Sam (played by Daniella) when they were babies. Kym returns as Sam Carter, explaining the two Sams and leaving Daniella to return as Sam Mitchell.
