Mickey not returning!

[Bryan]

I was reading in Inside Soap that Mickey Stone wont be in Hustle anymore due to other filming comitments!

I personally dont like him but the show wont be the same without him!

[Jessie Wallace]

noooooooooooo, you can't have Hustle without him, he makes the show.

[Bryan]

It's all change for series four of Hustle, which hits our screens next year. Adrian Lester will not be reprising his role as Mickey Stone due to other comitments but former So Solid Crew member Ashley Walters will join the cast as Billy Bond, a street kid whose spend most of his life in care homes.

great, loose Mickey and get a useless raper that probably cant act for toffee, well done BBC you had excelled yourself (again)

It's a shame Mickey is not returning. He is a massive asset to Hustle and he will be a big loss to the show when series 4 begins.

What ? he cant leave, it wont be hustle without him

nnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooo - they cant do that it really wont be the same without him!!!

[Jessie Wallace]

He has just been on Paul O'Grady,. he hasn't totally left, he is in some of this series, and is in talk's as to the next series. The problem was with the filming timetable, as he was doing a movie.

I can't imagine the show without Mickey - I love the other characters, but they need him to be the leader.

On the positive side, perhaps him not being there will open up the possibility of something happening between Danny and Stacie ...
