Just noticed one of the papers this morning, has on the front page, Larry Lamb saying Im a Celeb, get me back in Eastenders.

Could this happen

Err no.

Even in a show where Kathy & Den have both 'come back from the dead' (and others if you count the stories with Denise, Frank and Nick) this couldn't happen as his body was shown on screen.

If they were going to do this then they'd be more likely to do it with a bigger character eg. Pat.

I liked Archie but his story was played out and his daughters are leaving.

To paraphrase Monty Python:

Archie's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This 'Ender is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!!
THIS IS AN EX-ENDER!!



The only half-way believable way (given EE doesn't do flashbacks) would be for Roxy, Ronnie or Phil to hallucinate about him. Perhaps Stacey if she's due another psychotic episode.

Considering his brains were splattered across the floor of the Queen Vic by Stacey - no.

They could bring back the actor, but not the character, like Anne Mitchell.
Just slip in a few lines like "You really remind me of this bloke who used to live round 'ere "
to the script three or four times a year. I'm sure we'd soon get used to it.

Bring him back as a new character called Marchie Hitchell.

As an 'acting' ghost at the very least, anything else would be utterly ridiculous but it's been done before

It's amazing the way the papers blow stories up... he was most likely asked if he would like to go back to Eastenders... probably said "I would love to go back but I was killed off so I can't see it happening"... The good old UK papers probably just took "I would love to go back" and made a big headline out of it

they could introduce "guest ghost of the month" - Peggy, Archie, Tiffany, Pat .. you name it.

Now, who would I like: well, never really seen her - before my time - so Tiffany please ..

Just bring him back from the dead. They did it with Kathy. All bets were off then. That horse has bolted...
