Janine coming back would be amazing but I want her back with a much better storyline...

Tbh what were you expecting?

Janine or Kat haven't been away long.

And the majority of the rest of the major players get stupidly killed off.

For him pretending Lucy had cancer, which she moved on from and left two years after that happened?

Oh I remember her
Hope she's back for a while

Well there is a high chance she is involved in Weyland and Phil and Ian will be on the hitlist

I wasn't sure who she was from name alone ngl but people on twitter fuming need to chill, Eastenders is a 30 odd year old show just because they don't remember her doesn't mean she's not going to be iconic

That would be even worse. They are the definition of exhausted characters.

But he never treated her well but then he never treats anyone well

[Denver]

She returns in Jan

[LukeB]

Mel left on good terms with Ian so we can rule out revenge on Ian.

But, again, she moved on with Steve and was involved in Who Shot Phil? After this then Steve died and she left with a baby why would she give a stuff enough to join revenge almost twenty years later?

Her wanting revenge on Phil would make more sense as he kind of caused Steve's death. Same as Sharon really.

Speaking about her return to Walford, Tamzin says: “When I got the call from John (Yorke) asking if I would consider coming back to EastEnders, it was something I just couldn’t refuse. John created Mel’s most memorable storylines so it is an honour that he has asked me to return. EastEnders is in my DNA and I always knew deep down that someday I would revisit Mel; she is a strong independent woman with lots more stories to tell. To be stepping back into Mel’s shoes nearly twenty years after I first started feels just perfect.”

John Yorke, Creative Director, EastEnders says: “Tamzin is one of EastEnders’ biggest stars, so it’s particularly exciting to welcome her back to Walford for an incredible storyline - one that will awaken a lot of old ghosts, some great memories, and a whole new series of adventures too. We’re thrilled and flattered to have Tamzin back and we can’t wait to reveal just where she’s been, and just who Melanie Owen is now”.

Tamzin will begin filming in the next few weeks and will appear on screen in the New Year. Tamzin made her first appearance on 19 October 1998 and left 12 April 2002.

Hope she's coming to save the square from evil and bad acting from milton mowbury and his family

[Marsh.]

Idgi people talking as though it's nothing.

She's a big name actress and a great character. It's not as if it's bloody Hannah Waterman or Gus the binman.

[Marsh.]

How many long termers does the show have that it doesn't have to retcon their death or recast them?

She had a baby? Not Madz being her daughter
