The older cast is being slimmed down

The show has lost The Cokers.

Claudette & Babe are leaving
Dot could leave in 2017 if June Brown decides to retire
Somebody whose name who i am afraid to mention on here anymore may/may not be returning

Patrick & Kathy will be the only older characters should the above retire and the other not return.

Surely the show needs some more older characters.

The show definitely needs another older male character alongside Patrick.

I agree. Older characters are needed.

..

What with the new runway at Heathrow her beehive hair do could interfere with incoming flight proceedings. Maybe that's why her return is still unknown.

well, Phil's probably old enough to be old person, especailly with his health issues. Of course I have no idea how long he is going to be around. He is part of the older generation he does have a grandchild. ( if we go by generations)

LOL at the beehive & atc.

Actually no its about the oldee cast beung slimmed down.

I dont see Claudette returning after Ellen Thomas throwing shade on twitter at Sean O'Connor but the show does need more older characters- i guess we may have to wait until Sean O'Connor finally speaks about his plans for the show.

Maybe that will happen. But don't forget we already have Phil, Billy and Shirley who are grandparents and about the same age as the departing Pam, Les and Claudette. We also have Sylvie, Kathy, Patrick and Dot.
