Mercy i could see have the new family being based around. If they are phasing out The Fox Family,they might as well throw a new family in to make it exciting.I remember how great The Tavernier Family were.We need a new Tavernier family going.
I doubt Billy will be sacked because he is a Mitchell.Mitchell`s are usually spared from axings (Daniella Westbrook had a drug problem and Kate wasn`t a proper Mitchell). Besides i like Billy.He isn`t like all Mitchells,he is vulnerable and trying to get by without the help of Peggy.
I did and its one of many reasons why i do not like Charlie.Shame he is leaving though.

I know this is bit random but i am craving for more Victoria.I like her character for some reason and the actress is stunning.

I like Zsa Zsa out of the three so far and Mercy will return and i enjoyed her in E20.
Charlie Slater - his time has run out.For the past few years he has just been in the background for most Stacey`s storylines.I never liked it when he squared up to certain characters back when he first started.I remember one time when he tried to get the truth out of Ben (Little Mo`s kid Freddie hurt his head because of Ben) and he was acting all big and that.Then Grant turned a corner and he just became a little weasel.Never the less i liked Charlie Slater but his axing doesn`t surprise me.
Minty Peterson - I am so glad they have finally given Minty the slip.Minty has been deadwood for many and i mean many years.No purpose apart from The Comic Relief on the show and seeing that Gary has gone,there really is no need for him anymore.
Danny Mitchell - Not really a well liked character.He leaves i guess when The Vic burns down and he either swindles with Roxy`s money or not.I can however see Glenda stick around.I enjoy Glynis Barber`s performance.I don`t think we will be upset when he goes
Liz Williams - Expected.Ever since Owen died,Liz has been the next on the block.Lucas will most likely kill her and someone else and then the story will end.
Libby Fox - This was the one i most only surprised about.I guess its because of university or education issues.I do not think the character should be killed off but please do not make him leave with Adam.
Adam Best - So glad that he is leaving.I have hated this character since day one.An ungrateful,manipulative slimeball.Goodbye and don`t hit your door on the way out.
The next 3 characters to go as CarlD2 said is one we won`t be surprised about,one will be missed by some and one will be a shock.
If i had to pick
Lucas Johnson
Heather Trott
Jane Beale.

Kirkwood`s final year was dull and barely had any excitment. Lucy`s reign was utter dreadful from start to finish. If Marquess can`t save the show no one can.

ok here is my responce on that
thanks for replying by the way
I do agree that Dederick Santer definately gave the show more publicity and more notice than the last producers did.The ratings have gone up and its because of the promotion of the show and what stories would grab the viewers attention.
Now stories
The Stax storyline was the highlight of 2007.It went through the whole year with a good length of twists and turns.Max was meant to be potrayed as the villian and he certainly was.He was sneaky and manipulative in some ways.Stacey wanted more i guess from Bradley and i guess was never going to get it.I certainly enjoyed the wedding week and it gave us an expiration date with the camera.The reveal as you said was splendid viewing and will maybe be one of the best christmas episodes of the soap.But yeah the aftermath was not so great.The buried alive stuff was chessy and very over the top and when Max came back it was sort of swept under the rug.
Bianca`s return was well done.Whitney is a new favourite of mine,but this romance with Billie isn`t working for me.I didn`t like Todd either.I think he was a bit of a mommys boy.Carol`s return was well done too and i hope she sticks around.I am thinking maybe that Alan should come back as well and maybe The Jacksons/Brannings can become a super family and over take The Mitchells.
I disagree with you on Ronnie.I enjoy Ronnie a lot more than Roxy.Ronnie is a woman with her own authority and she can stand on her own two feet.Also i think Archie is one of the best EE villians in years.
The Masoods are an excellent family.I think they have finally came into their own but i hope they do not get overexposed on the show.The gay storyline is rounding up now so then i think The Masoods should get a rest and focus more on other storylines.
I am glad Ian is getting more air time and character development.But someone did say that "You Could Do Anything With Ian Beale" and that is slightly true.You can make him a man of gold or a sly villian.Whatever way it works.
I am not Jean Slater`s biggest fan but she has done well so far.
Here are the dissapointments
A lot of returns under DS were a blow.Suzy Branning was a blow up doll and had the words "Gold Digger" written on her forehead.Janine`s return was ok but nothing special.Claire Bates was ruined on EE.After seeing Gemma Bisex win acclaim for her performance on Claire Devine,DS thought "I`ll steal that success and launch it here".It never worked here because the story was just old and boring.I hope Kirkwood will bring her back and redeem the character.Nick`s was the worst.An evil child was cliche and the story was done 16 yrs before hand.Sam was not needed at all,it was just a ploy to get Ricky/Bianca back together.Steven`s storyline was ok but not amazing.It would have been better if Cindy Beale came back (I don`t buy her dying in hospital...i just don`t) but i guess i somewhat enjoyed it and would like to see Steven return again.May`s return was pointless and the explosion was better (All stunts under Santer sucked...the actual stunt happening and then awkward silence like a bad comedy) and of course Billie Jackson who just can`t stop being a moody bam.
The Social issues were ok but yeah i get your point.I really wish that The Whitney/Tony storyline got more time.It was rushed through for 3 months and then we never heard about it again.I could have seen this gone through half of 2009.Its a real shame because this was a good story.I think the bi polar story had great acting but was really it,just great acting.as for Syed/Christian.At first i wasn`t a fan of this story but now i am sort of getting into it even though it is coming to a conclusion very soon.
I do agree on the baby stories.They need to stop FFS
The Mitchells are a mess now after Archie went.Ronnie is moping about doing now,Roxy is drunk with power,Danny wants to be drunk with power,Peggy is behind the bar awkwardly trying to find something to do,Phil is trying to play happy families,Billy is trying to find "Love",Ben is jealous of Louise for no reason other than he is a pratt and Louise is either going to be a bad girl or has DID (Maybe Vicki can give her some tips as Jean Randolph) anyway yeah The Mitchells need sorting out.Give Glenda Peggy`s position as the new Matriarch and give this family something to do other than The Mitchell sisters chasing after Jack.
I don`t care about the comedy on EE.Heather is ok and Shirley is awesome.Zsa Zsa too.
The Brannings were butchered weren`t they.After Stax they turned Tanya into a psychopath and after that told us to sympthaise with her.So after burying his cheating husband alive you want us to like her? she then sleeps with Max and illegally YES ILLEGALLY take the kids away to another country without Max`s consent.Then Max gets run over and...I`ll go on and on but yeah your right Santer really screwed up this family but th rebuilding stages are beginning.
Pacing has been ok
Yeah i am also wondering where The Lucas Story is going.I hope they can keep it entertaining and then give it a natural conclusion.

one of the episodes i remember watching was Josie & Jesse`s wedding in 2005. I don`t know if H&A was good or bad at the time but i did enjoy that particular episode.

its just making the show`s fan more anxious on when Paul Marquess comes in to fix it up.

He is leaving on the 50th Anniversary Episodes in December. He was one of corrie`s best characters. I reckon he will get The Lifetime Acheivement Award this year.

yeah ill watch it later.

If Kirkwood does want to bring back some characters,i agree that he should bring back Claire to make the character different. I thought her 08 stint was just a blonde Janine and the story was utter pointless.
I would also like to see Penny Branning back. The actress is on a kids tv show and she is really good. Penny is Jack`s handicapped daughter if anyone is wondering.
Dan Sullivan should also be back (Carol`s ex flame and Bianca`s ex flame - Phil`s mortal enemy)
i`ll post others when i can remember.
Also i want to know what were the highs and lows of Santer`s reign.He has done it for 3 years and i was just wondering what you all thought were his highs and lows of the show were

It really is bad isn`t it. Its getting sort of better and thats because Lucy Allen is leaving and so she maybe putting on decent material.But once PM jumps onboard then hopefully he can turn the show around.

GOD Berridge was like The JFP Of British Soap. Just a women who should never be anywhere near a soap after the mess she made with EE.

her character is turning into a bit of a B**** though.

I just hope he actually knows how to tell a story, which Eastenders doesn't do now.
So for the last 3 years,EE hasn`t been telling great stories.
The Secret Mitchell
Who Killed Archie
Stacey & Max`s Affair
Chyred
Those are few of many storylines Santer has created and revamped the show for a modern audience.

John is not a bad character, except that he has to keep commiting bad acts as though he is a bad boy. Fiz is quite annoying but i don`t mind her.
A lot of Corrie bores me right now. Brooke Vincent can ACT.A lot of teens are cast because they look good but Brooke Vincent who plays Sophie can bloody act mate.Her acting may keep this story from sinking.I dont think it will,but it could.
