There's probably no truth to it.

but did anybody else here the rumour, that she is supposed to see the ghost/spirit of Den Watts appear?

and she starts to get panic attacks because of this.

There have been so many rumours regarding upcoming storylines for Peggy, some people have said:

*She spots Den's ghost
*Ben sets fire to the vic, leaving Peggy fighting for her life
*she sadly develops cancer again

e.t.c.....

I heard about the Queen Vic fire and Ben starting it ages ago, I think around the time when Ben first came into it. I doubt there is any truth in that myself though but you never know.

If they start showing ghosts in EE it will lose all credibility with me.

I actually know nothing about those rumors but the only thing I can show you about Peggy is how she will look like with her new haircut, if you're interested



That's so weird to see her in this state...

This is actually true.

I was talking to the bar-maid in a pub once and she said around about 10.00 every morning (not night) but morning, a bottle would come flying off the bar - smashing to the ground

so eerie things can happen in pubs

There have always been rumours about storylines for Peggy - in part because, despite being on the show for over 10 years she has only ever had one major big storyline (cancer). Any other character would have racked up half a dozen by now.

Its because she is a one-dimensional character - its difficult to coax any narrative from her.

Phiw and Ben were sitting down the other day watching a few Carry On films and Phiw starts a rumour that Peggy used to be an actress and appeared in some of them!

I don't know... to be fair there was the whole Frank/Pat/Peggy thing that was pretty big, but yeah, alot of charactors have had more than her in the past. It just might get a bit repetative if they show her having cancer again after so long, and bringing Den back is really unlikley; he'd only have a silent role, it would be unrealistic and he has no mates on the Eastenders set after a certain video...

Although I agree that the Pat-Frank-Peggy storyline was a major plot, I always considered it to be centred more so on Pat and Frank that Peggy, in the sense that it was "their" storyline. Perhaps I am being a tad unfair, but it was certainly an ensemble storyline, rather than a plot centring primarily upon a single character who generates its narrative drama.

But even if I were to consider that, its 2 storyline in over 10 years. That a pretty poor investment. Hell, characters that have only been in the show 2 or 3 years have had more BIG storylines than that.

Its because, like I said, she is a very one-dimensional character - like all the Mitchells (with perhaps the exception of R&R). But they are very difficult to write for because they are so poorly characterised and poorly realised personalities. They are, effectively, caricatures - and very old caricatures at that who really bring the show down now because of the inherently contrived nature of their characterisation.
