When does everybody think Janine will return?

I am sure she will.

I have always said a good time would be Christmas 2017 that will have given viewers a three and a half year break approximately. Time to bring her back with a bang. Love Janine but I like that she has had a couple of breaks, refreshes the character and the audience are less likely to get sick of her.

Great thread I was just thinking about her last week.

I reckon there will be an announcement in the next 2 weeks that she is coming back. I hope I'm right.

I really want her to have a feud with Phil Mitchell. It just never seems to happen at all.

It is a shame she has no family on the square anymore.

This is the issue. There is no family. DTC has made EastEnders all about the carters but people haven't noticed how much we have now lost.

The Mitchells are just made up of cousins and the majority seem to be children that now make up the clan (I like them though.)

The Masoods are non existent sadly.

The Brannings are a mess.

The Beales are fine family member wises but need a rest.

The Carters - How could there be any others, we have had enough.

The Butchers, Jacksons and the Slaters are pretty much vanished.

I would love her to come back Sharon 2001 style and own The Vic!

Yes, with Janines family all gone it does make it harder for her to return but not impossible. I really don't want her to return broke, I think there was a lot more scope to her character when she had money.

She does still own property on the square, so that's a way forward.

With Liam being involved in the Beale cover up, that would have been a good angle for them to use to get Janine back. She could find out offscreen that Ian and Jane blackmailed Liam into keeping quite and so she comes back with Liam and Cindy to get revenge on them.

Never going to happen with Danny Dyers, Mick Carters around.

Her, Ian Beale and Lucy Beale (that would have been great when she was much older) should all own the pub at some point or another. Danny Rickman to, I can't wait for him to morph into Dennis Rickman/"Dirty" Den Watts!

Sadly unless Liam Butcher was dying she wouldn't give a damn about her nephew.

Danny should not be able to hold the producers to ransom. Janine returning to own the Vic is the natural way back for her character. She spent five years trying to own the place when she was last in it.

I agree with Denny Rickman. He will surely be landlord one day, assuming Sharon is still on the show in 15 years time.

I hope they don't go down the bullying route with him. An Anti hero type of womaniser with a heart would suit me. Bleu is a good looking lad to so keep the actor.

Danny is Eastenders biggest constant asset I imagine so they will do as he pleases to a certain degree.

I disagree about the Carter's, but I agree we have lost so many great characters over the past few years.

After losing Pat, Peggy and Pauline all in the last decade, Janine, Carol, Bianca, Ricky, Kat, Alfie, Tanya and Zainab have all left the show, leaving holes in either the show itself or families on The Square.

For me, the Masood's are pointless without Zainab. Nina Wadia has said she'd return, so I don't see why it's never actually been done.

Jo Joyner has now had a three year break from the show, which Jake Wood claimed she intended to do when she left. I think with Max's return later this year, this is the perfect time to bring her back.

I've always said there is alway a place for Kat on the show and with the Slater's now Bing built up again, now would be the perfect time for SOC to bring her back after the spin off.

I'm not fussed about Ricky, Bianca and Carol, as their stories are done in my opinion. (Unless they can think of a new format). However, to answer the question I would adore a Janine return! She's one of my all time favourite characters! It would be hard putting her back in the show with no family, but there are ways around that. She could return with a new man and buy one of the businesses in Walford, leading her back to The Square maybe to cause havoc.

That is a great idea. I think Janine did care for Liam, Tiffany, Whitney and Morgan deep down.

yes, please bring her back - sooner rather than later - we need her to liven things up a bit.

yes, doesn't she own the house where Carol used to live, now Sonia, Tina & Bex ?? just thinking - with "sonia" being on maternity leave ... Janine returns to "evict" Tina - and Bex goes to live with her dad - perfect opportunity to bring Janine back !

They could have it that Ricky needs a place to live.. He brings back Tiffany and Liam ( with a new head). Janine comes back to Butcher house. Ricky can go again after a time but he's brought Butchers back into Square. Liam could bring back Cindy as a half sister for Steven.

just thinking, Liam must be Bex's cousin ! so no competition there (Louise/Bex) - and about right age for Louise, but then - if ... Louise / Cindy ... waw - see some trouble there

Janine is the sort of character that can just swan back into the square without an excuse. It's not as if she doesn't know most of the residents.

yes, with Michael Moon - guess she must be ..... 2-3 years old by now. No, make that three something - because met Janine outside the studios - let me see - autumn 2012 when I think she was supposed to be pregnant - so met her without the baby bump of course. And, she's a lot nicer in real life than on TV -in all respects.

daughter, Scarlett, born June 2012 - so must have met her probably April 2012 - i.e. she's four this month.

Michael tried to poison and strangle Janine. And lured Alice into the plot !
