Is Sean O'Connor axing DTC mates on the show?

It seems that the Carters were born out of DTC's own family as well.

Do you think that too many of Dom's mates got an easy ride on the show because they are mates with DTC?

Sean O'Connor is about to change all that I think.

You said the word 'axing' in your first sentence.

I highly doubt it's anything personal.

It's a new boss with new ideas like at any company.

SOC needs to build his new writing team.

I assume Alex Lamb isn't being kept on as story producer? I wonder if he'll bring back any writers from the 2000-2002 period, like Simon Ashdown?

No. I want to know how many of the cast are DTCs creation's. They're the only ones I can think off. I want to know who vas is actually talking about. Do we include new casting like nuMartin as well ? I find the thread confusing and get the feeling it's just another anti Carter thread.

Apologies I worded it incorrectly.

What I was trying to say was -

Have some of the cast remained in the show for too long or indeed not too long but we're safe because they are friends with DTC.

It's not an anti Carter thread. I like some of them like Linda, Mick, Shirley and heaven forbid Babe.

So characters like the Beales and Mitchells that have dominated the show during his tenure. I don't think they'd ever be axed but I hope they'll be used less.

I think you might be right. It is an anti carter thread.

No the actors should not be fired for being friends with Dtc.

they weren't safe from the axe because he was friends with them 🙄🙄

Anyone who keeps company with proven liars who ruin soaps just to spite really attractive and charming forum members needs to choose their friends more carefully.

Just because you are making a statement about your thread that is contrary to what the thread is clearly about- does not mean we will suddenly agree with you.

My understanding of your thread is DTC has pushed forward his favourite/his created characters and now he is gone where does that leave these characters?
I think we need less of the "holy family" i.e the Carters and it would be good to see more flaws, just like any normal family. It will be interesting to see what the plans are for the Mitchell's?with Ronnie and Roxy going it looks like the Mitchell's are being cut down.

That's the beauty of democracy although sometimes I wonder about that on here.

Thank you Misty Cloud- you have hit the nail on the head.

This was what I was trying to get across

In the paper the other day it stated that they have already opened talks to renew Danny's contract when it expires next May

I hope people realise DTC set Redwater in Ireland because he had family from there and wanted to put that into the show. Shane Richie said it in an interview.
