Notice this from the football stuff episode, the interaction with a few more characters, hiding some kind of secret in relation to the fire possibly from her past.

All in much better, but sadly too late as she is leaving in about November.

It's not too late, but if the girl wants to leave what can they do? Chain her to the gates?

I thought they were writing her out.

Was it her decision to leave?

Yeah, she wasn't happy with the way her character was going.

Maybe she might decide to stay. I think the door will be left open for her. I like Clare

She's got a lot better. I loved the rose scene with Dot today, especially when she saw the two blokes go into the pub and then completely change back to her normal self!!

She is a good character when the script is good - I wish she would stay longer

Clare has been very good in the last couple of episodes, the scripts have been much better for her.

She wanted to proove herself but it seemed Eastenders writers only wanted her for a bit of eye candy.

Well good luck to her in whatever she decides to do next.

She's only been in since February and hardly had much screen time and has already decided to leave? I think she should stay as the conning storyline was very poor. But I loved the rose scene with Dot.

The change in her character is both unreal and unnatural. I just don't know why they have bothered.

Clare has been much better in the past few episodes. She's been given some depth. If her character had been taken in this direction from the start, she probably would have been a lot more popular.

I know what you mean, ever since she arrived shes been such a manipulative sniping gold digger..Now suddenly she is saving people from burning buildings, joining in the community I thought it was really corny how when they were carting mikey (i think it was) she ran to him and said something (like I’ll take over come on) almost like the writers were trying to convey (to the audience) that she isn’t totally evil..IDK it just seemed really transparent


ps I never had a problem with the character in the first place she has only been there a minute and its not like we actually knew her backstory..Why everyone is so quick to condemn (and now praise) this character I will never know

She has so much potential as we have seen in these recent episodes. I think EE have made a bad decision axing all these people... Clare, Mickey, Honey! They made the right one about Keith though Sorry!

From the above posts it sounds like Gemma chose to leave. As for Honey, I would agree with you but the fact she hasn't been on screen since the begining of April does rather suggest that there's simply nothing for her to do.

Mickey and Keiths axings were both correct but I wish Clare was staying.
