Belinda Peacock - Full time.
Liam Butcher - New direction for such an important character on paper. Janine Butcher - Best bitch that show has. Chrissie Watts - Not sure how that would work though? Carol Jackson - Best actress they have had on that show. David Wicks - I really want to see him interact with the Beales more. Glenda Mitchell - With a new direction. Aunt Sal - More appearances. DI Samantha Keeble and DCI Jill Marsden - More appearances. Tanya Cross - Her and Max Branning are high time for a reunion. Suzy Branning - With Maggie O'Neil in the role. Dan Sullivan - The one person who could out smart and knock Phil out. I'm sure there are many I have missed out. |

For me I'd bring back Sarah Hills - Ian and Kathy need more family, I want to see her more mature having graduated Uni and have a couple of kids in tow Daphne Fox - I want Denise and Kim's backstory to be explored more, why did Daphne hate Denise so much Aunt Marge - I love how she hates Walford so much, they need to build on that Glenda Mitchell - Should be more of a recurring character SexyParamedic - Full time please |

Definitely a no to Dan and Suzy, both in my top ten for the worst characters in EE all time,

Good to have family for Denny Rickman and Sharon Mitchell. |

To do that you'd have to axe half the cast. I can only think of a handful that I wouldn't miss.
Janine is a must for the future and David Wicks would be an asset. |

I'd be happy if I never saw most of those characters again. The only ones I wouldn't object to are Janine, David Wicks, Simon Wicks, Lisa Fowler and Chrissie Watts. I think EastEnders have gone to the well with returnees too often of late. A whole bunch of characters have returned already and some of them barely get anything to do as it is. I'm looking at you, Kathy Beale!
Between Pat's last appearance in 2012 and her hallucinogenic reapparance during Peggy's last episode the following characters have returned Kathy Beale Sharon Watts Martin Fowler Grant Mitchell Peggy Mitchell Ben Mitchell Lorna Cartwright Sonia Fowler Rebecca Fowler Belinda Peacock Louise Mitchell Jane Beale Stacey Slater Jean Slater Honey Mitchell Libby Fox Linda Clarke Ronnie Mitchell Lucas Johnson Jordan Johnson Glenda Mitchell Ryan Malloy Shabnam Masood Dean Wicks Charlie Slater Robbie Jackson Marcus Christie DCI Marsden Cindy Williams Rainie Cross Anthony Trueman David Wicks Carly Wicks Diane Butcher Simon Wicks And then we had Steven Beale return recently with Sam Mitchell also coming back. |

Sorry I love correcting the names ![]() Shockingly only 3 of the people mentioned in your post are dead. Peggy Mitchell. Pat Evans. Charlie Slater. |

I would like to see SOC re-introduce some big EastEnders characters.
My first choice would be Janine. The Square needs an iconic bitch in the same way that Coronatiom Street have Tracy and Emmerdale, Charity. With no family on The Square, this could be difficult, however not impossible, as there are plenty of ways for Janine to return. She still owns property on The Square and could easily be introduced alongside some new characters, developing the character and her interactions. I would also like to see the return of Dan Sullivan. Having him related to Gavin in some way could make Gavin more interesting in my opinion and it's about time the show had a villain with charisma. Dan would definitely give Phil some competition as the Square's 'gangster'. Tanya Branning would be a must, now that the Branning's are being built up once again. A return for the character is long overdue, and with her mother, daughters and Ex Husband having gone through so much since she left Walford, I would like to see her return and help out. Avoiding the Max/Tanya merry go round would be ideal, but I wouldn't say no to them reuniting. I always found them a great couple. I would like to see Zainab return to The Square aswell, with her new husband. Not a rehash of the Yuesuf story, but it would allow some new characters to be introduced and make the show more diverse, whilst also giving Masood more storylines/screen time. Kat would also be another top choice of mine. There will always be a place for her on the show and her family are being built up once again. I am hopeful she'll be back after he spin off and a break. Finally, a Grant Mitchell return would be excellent. I'm unsure wether Ross Kemp would commit full time again, but I think we could be heading in that direction with Ross returning this month for 3 weeks and Barbara Windsor pointing out he may join full time again. I think these 6 characters would offer the show something different and help inject some Classid EastEnders into the show, as all 5 are huge characters. Especially Grant, Janine and Kat. |

I don't think the show could absorb any more older women, we're top heavy with them as it is.

No to most of the returns listed for me I'm afraid. The ones I'd like to see are
David Wicks Sean Slater If be happy for Christian to come back but I like the fact he's with syed and wouldn't want them split up. There's other characters that I like but I would necessarily want them back now or think that they would fit in with the way the show is currently. |

No more return ever. Stick Mick's gob in the revolving door to permanently block anyone returning EVER.
New characters that DO NOT have any connections to anyone is the way to go. |
