This.

A Ben return has been written on the wall for a while, Kate and members of the cast have endlessly hinted at it. However, I’m presuming Harry was the one she mentioned in her interview when she said ‘we’re still in talks with one actor’, maybe he wasn’t up for it after all?

We’ve still got one return yet to be confirmed, I hope it’s someone good and not Lauren but I’m fully expecting her.

I think they've been revealed now.

I think Sean was the one Kate was teasing, and the other one must be Ben.

But I am expecting some more.

This was obvious when Lola's return was announced but didn't expect a recast lmao

Our Kate ruthlessly telling Harry he wasn't good enough?

Na, I definitely reckon she wasn't keen on Harry Reid.

Ben and Johnny to be her Robert and Aaron. Johnny to be recast before summer.

Tbf, John Yorke only left at Christmas so maybe this was one of their joint decisions.

Yorke telling Oates why he got rid of Harry and she agreed to recast because she was shocked by what he had to say?

Not Harry's constant love for the show in the press being a cover up

4 actors in 10 years and they've all had major storylines too so it's not like they can easily be forgotten like Johnny 2.0 or Peggy 1.0

Charlie - 4 years, the Stella storyline, friendship with Heather/Shirley etc.
Joshua - Killing Heather
Harry - Lucy's death story, Paul's death, the Wilmots-Brown stuff, Kathy's return

Nnnnnn A BIG FAT JOKE tbh! Kathy to actually speak to the new one?
