No wonder I don't get as many thanks as I deserve.

You're both on fine form tonight...
Nor me! I think I need to get pressing the thank you button a lot more to investigate this...
Me neither... *shakes head sadly*
BARBARA Windsor has hinted an EastEnders comeback could be on the cards if Ross Kemp returns to Albert Square to play her son Grant Mitchell.
Ross, 51, recently reignited rumours he is set for a sensational return following Kathy Beale’s ratings-winning comeback from the dead.
Responding to a tweet from an EastEnders’ fan hoping executive producer Dominic TreadwellCollins could persuade him to reprise his role, Ross – who has previously ruled out returning – replied: “Never say never.”
Now Babs, 78, has also suggested having her screen sons Phil and Grant back in Albert Square along with Kathy, played by Gillian Taylforth, 60, would be too tempting to turn down.
Chatting at the Amy Winehouse Foundation dinner Barbara said: “I’m loving Gillian being back on EastEnders.
“Gillian is the best. She doesn’t look any different from when she left.
“I think it’s great for her and great for the show. She is a true EastEnders star.”
When asked if she would also be up for returning, Barbara added: “I did hear the rumour about Ross going back but who knows? It would obviously be a great storyline to have Peggy reunited with her boys. Never say never. It could happen.”
According to sources on set, show boss Dominic is determined to reunite EastEnders’ ultimate family The Mitchells.
Our insider said: “The Mitchells are arguably the most famous family on TV.
“They represent everything that EastEnders is about and have been involved in some of the soap’s biggest storylines. Dominic has achieved the almost impossible task of bringing Kathy Beale back from the dead – now he’s determined to bring back Grant and Peggy.
“He knows having Grant, Phil, Sharon, Kathy and Peggy all on screen together at the same time again would be TV gold.”
Ross joined EastEnders in 1990 before leaving in 1999. He rejoined for brief stints in 2005 and 2006.
Barbara joined in 1994 before leaving Walford in 2010.

I am beginning to think Ross Kemp might just be back before long and if he is coming back, Peggy Mitchell will be shouting" Get Out Of My Pub" again before long too

Alan will be pleased anyway. I bet he's already polishing up his blue balls in anticipation.

Barbara Windsor is to be made a dame in the New Year's Honours list, according to reports.
The much-loved actress will apparently be rewarded for her charity work, which has included her backing the Royal British Legion's Poppy Day appeal.
Windsor is already an MBE, and the Queen is believed to have expressed her delight that the star's name has been put forward for the Honours list.
The 78-year-old actress is best known for her appearances in the Carry On movies and as barmaid Peggy Mitchell in EastEnders.
She appeared in the BBC soap from 1994 to 2010 and reprised her role earlier this year to celebrate the show's 30th anniversary.
Windsor has also hinted that she would return to the Walford series - but only if her Mitchell boys were right there alongside her.
Alan will be delighted!
