Plenty of people seem to want her to come back, but I was just wondering if many people don't? And if so, what are your reasons? Post here.

I do and I don't. I do cos I like the character, well love to hate and I don't because I don't know what they'd do with her storyline wise and wouldn't want them to end up ruining her.

I would be happy to see her back but I always thought that Stacey Slater was bought in to replace her.

Well if that was the case then what a poor effort

No thanks. The square has enough hard faced 'bitches' as it is at the moment.

plus I thought they drained all they could out of her character the last time she was it. She was a prostitute, druggie, murderer, and agoraphobic before she left.

She was amazing in tonight's ep, but if she does come back, I'll be worried about what her storylines would be

They will find something for her, I am sure of that.

How did you work that out? Stacey is more like Kat Slater than Janine.

She looked the same and acted like a younger version for the first few months.

I love Janine. She's a fantastic bitch played by a brilliant actress, but I don't think I would like her back. I don't see where else they could take the character when she's done so many evil things so far, it's like they will have to try and top each one of her storyline's. I personally think she's moved on now from the Square and we have new bitches like Clare and Chelsea to develop.

I love Janine but don't want her back. I just don't think she'd fit in atm. There is such a thing as bringing back far too many old characters as well.

I also think they have to work on making some of the 'young adult' cast (Chelsea, Clare, Bradley etc) better characters (they've become very weak recently) and bringing back and concentrating on bombastic Janine would probably mean they get shafted.

I agree. People complain about Chelsea and Clare, but I think with the right stories they could be very good characters. Bradley has gone abit stale after the affair as they seem to have focused on Tanya, Max and Stace abit more.

I agree - I just hope they are given the right storylines

No I don't want her back. Didn't like her first time round and I had forgotten how much her whiny voice used to irritate me. Most of her storylines bored me.

I don't want her back, and most of the above reasons cover it

Janine should come back deffinatly.

I think the whole Chelsea meeting her dad thing is meant to take her away from role as Square bitch, and Clare has been underwhelming for me, considering there was such a hype about her, though its still early days.

Charlie Brooks carried Eastenders in early 2004, and the show went downhill rapidly when she left.

If Janine was given great storylines, it would be well worth her coming back. How likely do you think it is?

I doubt very much she would come back if the storylines weren't up to her expectations.

Nah, that applies to Kat, not Janine, can't agree with you there.

Charlie Brooks herself has said that she would be willing to return if the storyline was good.. And I think they will.

The only problem, is agreeing with CANDYANGEL, I don't want her character to get boring and repetive.

But Janine is truly one of the Best soap bitche's.

Those aren't reasons. They can do so much more with her.
