Honey and Nicola don't work for me - I don't find Honey funny, and while Nicola is played by a good actress, I don't like that they made her a murderer. Plus, it would be nice to have a closer female Mitchell relative. They could re-introduce Louise, though I never liked the original, and would prefer she was recast. Courtney would be a better alternative as she doesn't have a kid like Louise, so she's a blank slate. I don't really get the rationale behind introducing more relatives for Billy, when Billy is a spent character. Harry has turned out quite good, but they could put him more in Phil's orbit and write the rest of the family out. I hope they don't bring Ben back again, or I hope they recast him. I could never get behind Max Bowden's version. I don't get why soaps are so messy structurally when it comes to the families, I'd have thought these things seem like common sense. I'm glad they've rebuilt some of the families in the last 5 years though, like by bringing back Peter, Chelsea, Lauren etc.
