EASTENDERS’ Dr Legg is coming out of retirement.
The GP — played by Leonard Fenton, 80, between 1985 and 1997 — could return later this year, show boss Diederick Santer revealed. He said: “Dr Legg was well-loved. I hope to get him back for at least one episode.”

From The Sun

I hope he does - I was appalled that he never returned for Pauline Fowler's funeral - especially after he brought her into the World!!
Dr Legg is EastEnders most professional doctor ever - his replacements have never been as near as good as Legg. Look at the state of current GP May Wright - hardly at her surgery & mentally disabled over this boring baby story - I wouldn't fancy taking my illness to her!
Legg was forever the professional, his storylines were usually always supporting others through professionalism, he didn't need big (and boring!) storylines like his sucessors have had - and not one has been fun to watch - he was what a soap Doctor should be - just the doctor!!

Obviously Dr Legg is retired & will not be returning as the doctor, but having him there will be good enough - especially for Dot.....maybe he'll return for her birthday or something.

Welcome back Harold - I look forward to seeing him once again

Brilliant! Thanks for posting that, Bronze Bully. I agree with your comments, which are spot-on as usual.

Ok great news of course.
lets think now why he would come back. What storyline.
Is it because of May? is she going loppy? Is she leaving?

Ok the first two i think yes. The last hope-i hope not.

I doubt it'd be anything to do with May. Remember he is no longer a doctor & don't know May!
I think he'll most likely return for a Dot storyline - he & her go back many years and are still good friends - could be part of this up-coming baby storyline or as I said earlier, Dot's birthday, which apparantly they will be celebrating with a party.....

When he returns I hope he visits Ian & delivers his excuses for missing PF's funeral (I'd say he was in Israel for Xmas visiting family/old haunts - it's small detail like this soaps dont do thesedays! )

Fantastic!

It's a pity Pauline's not there now, he was great friends with the Fowler family.

Actually, doesn't he only know 5 cast members? Dot, Ian, Pat, Peggy & Phil?

Good news!

It's always nice to see the old faces back, even if it is only for one episode...
