Why are there so many old characters supposed to be coming back? Raquel,Bet,Mavis and Reg are all coming back or signing up to come back - or so it says on some CS websites. I think the show should introuduce strong new characters. NE else agree?

There coming back because viewing figures are down compared to some years ago and they thought that bringing back the one's we all love ( ) would push viewing back up as the new young characters have not worked in grabbing our attention.

I don’t really care who they bring back as long as one day they promise that Maria stands on the roof and whips her top off (I’m kidding )

It'll be more likely that Bet whips her top off, killing off several characters in the ensuing landslide.

I had heard somthing about Reg, are these characters returning short term or full time.

In fact how did they leave?
Mavis went to run a B&B in Cartmel
Raqual went to work in Kuala Lumpur

Reg was he in a special running a Duty Free shop on a Ferry/at a Ferry Port
Bet can remember how she left

These are all just rumours from other people on CS websites. To be honest I think for some fans it's just wishful thinking.

Sadly I can see Bet & Reg both making comebacks (although everytime Bet comes back I have to switch off) but Raquel & Mavis??

I read very recently that Thelma barlow (Mavis) doesnt ever want to caome back as she has had a lot of work since leaving Corrie but also beacuse she likes the freedom to choose the jobs these days. As for Raquel, well Sarah lancashire hasnt done much lately and she always says "never say never" but with Curly not being there I dont see the point!

I'm confused...this thread started off over two years ago, and for some reason started up again this week. What's going on?!

Unfortunately Bet is to make yet another brief return around christmas I think :yawn: Why do they keep bringing the old slag back?

Sorry to anyone who didn't want to know this but I don't know how to do that ''spoiler'' thing

Yeah.. that's a good point actually..

I don't really want Leanne to come back that much though. I hope someday Toyah makes her return, with Spider in tow. I loved them!

Never mind about Reg and Mavis, let's not forget the ghastly Bev Callard (Liz McD), who did make a return, and is apparently returning - permanently - this summer. Personally, give me Bet every time

I'd prefer to see Todd or Karl whip their pants off! They are two hot gay guys!

Hi, in relation to my spoiler about Bet returning at Christmas, it's not actually true. Sorry. A friend of mine told me it was true but it's not. Sorry for getting your hopes up - or down.
