claire_louise Posted August 28, 2005 Report Posted August 28, 2005 The Mitchells aren't really gangsters, just trouble makers! The whole gangsters thing started to get too much with Dalton, Andy, the return of Den, Johnny, Jake and Danny etc. I don't know about Ross Kemp's contract but I read that his main reason for coming back was that the BBC promised to let him work on some of their other drama programmes, not as an actor but behind the scenes. I doubt they gave him a million pounds - the highest paid stars on the show don't get even half that amount I don't think. I'm not fussed about Grant and especially Phil returning, but I am happy that Peggy is back soon!
Liz Posted August 28, 2005 Report Posted August 28, 2005 Hmmm... I certainly remember reading that EE were so very desperate to have him back on the show, that they tempting him with a million pound deal.

Di Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 'Enders door left open for Nigel Harman Monday, August 29 2005, 15:40 BST -- by Daniel Kilkelly Dennis Rickman will not be killed off when he leaves Albert Square at the end of the year. According to the Daily Star, Dennis, played by Nigel Harman, will decide to make a new life for himself in the US. "As far as I know, Dennis Rickman will be left alive - pending a possible return," one source revealed. "If Nigel does not want to come back, then, after a decent interval, the part could be re-cast." The insider added, "It will become increasingly apparent that Dennis needs to put the UK behind him."
liam99998204 Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 Thanks for that Di: Recasting parts is not the answer if characters need to move on then so do the viewers. Stop relying on people that have come and gone. Its no wonder the stars buckle under the pressure! I would explode. Liam
Ashirr-Leigh Posted August 29, 2005 Author Report Posted August 29, 2005 Ok, let me rephrase that.. the Mitchells are wannabe gangsters!
Liz Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 I used to realy enjoy the Phil and Grant storylines, but now I do feel that there is little territory left to explore with them.
claire_louise Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 Yeah I agree with you Liz. As for recasting Dennis, I don't see the point. The character is so popular because people (yes, ok, mostly women) love Nigel Harman. Also I don't think recasts work when the character is part of a well-loved couple. Someone mentioned the possibility of recasting Kirsty in H&A when she wanted to leave, so that KK could stay, but the chemistry would never be the same. I really really hope they don't split Sharon and Dennis up. It would be better if they leave together and Letitia decides not to come back. She's clearly not 100% happy at Eastenders if she wants to keep leaving all the time. PS. Sam is about to dig up Den...I think I'm gonna puke. Although,Sharon and Dennis are getting married! Bless.
Dan F Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 And we're mean to believe she's going to get through all that concrete with a pickaxe! I think Ride of the Valkyries was a bit OTT though! Interesting reaction from Sharon: Ian: They found a body Sharon: But it's my wedding day!
