I am really pleased that SOC seems to be concentrating on building up this pivotal clan, especially as members have been falling in recent years. One thing that does concern me though is the younger generation: Bex is the only one in the younger generation (and she can change her name upon marriage) and therefore the future of the Fowlers rests in her, I know there is Louie but I think once Steven and Lauren inevitably split, Louie will become a Branning. It really f*** me off that Arthur was made Kush's son rather than Martin's. o think they need to focus on the younger generation because even now we have Michelle back, I really fear for the future of the Beales

Too late to edit but while I remember this is exactly why I was against the killing of Lucy as it further limits the potential for future beales

Why not? It's quite common nowadays for married women to keep their own surnames

Why would Louie change to Branning if Lauren and Steven split? Peter is his father and Lauren split from him, but made it quite plain that Peter is his father. And there are more young Beale's-Liam, Tiffany, Morgan, Cindy (kind of), Bobby, Peter, Whitney (through Bianca as adoptive daughter). And then there is Vicki and Mark too.

I don't think Lucy ever having a child could've happened. I doubt Peter and Cindy would keep that kind of secret, but you never know. I always think that Ian could possibly have fathered another child with Mandy Salter?

Mark and Vicky are Fowlers . Peter, Bobby and Steven are Beales. Didn't Pauline and Pete have brothers as well. I can't see the name dying out.

David is a Beale in all but name so his descendants are Beale by blood.

Davids decendants have always been aligned with the Brannings rather than Ian and his family so they've never felt like Beales, likewise with Whitney.

As for Louie, Lauren will have full custody and he will grow up a Branning rather than as part of the Beale unit

The resurgence of the Beale/Fowler family is the most promising aspect of this era so far. At one point under Bryan Kirkwood there were just two Beales in the entire show: Ian and Bobby. It's great to see them flourishing again at the heart of the show, where they undoubtedly belong.

I love having Fowlers back on the show, I never thought it would happen. Now we not only have Martin and his lovely family but Michelle being played by a top actor. I also love the fact they are in Pat's house

Indeed, I feel there's always been something 'missing' from the show since Pauline's death and the writers are beginning to rediscover it with the new Fowlers and Beales.

I can see now why they axed Belinda and Kyle. It was very much a Slater household but now it's all about the Fowlers. Clever move.

It's also helped that they've remembered that Ben is related to them too

I hope Peter returns soon, I'd love for either Steven or Arthur to turn out to be either Ian or martins but I don't think it would be plausible

Since they 'recast' the baby playing Arthur I definitely think he's Kush's.

They shouldn't go down that road with Steven either as his paternity was a huge storyline at the time. It would just spoil that a bit like how Kat's secret son has spoiled the Kat/Zoe storyline for some.

That's what I thought as well, we never really found out what else went on down in devon, she was stealing and drug taking and she left after not long after her abortion, she was gone nearly two years so who knows.

Martin and Stacey will have their own children...just wait and see.

I'd like to see Vicky back (but dump Spencer) and Mark Jr had potential and was one of DTC's better castings.

Maybe triplets just for a change.

Maybe Vicky could return after Spencer gets eaten alive by rabid kangaroos,
