Lets hope she has no landrover scenes in a lay-by :eek:

oh god not her, her voice does my head in, The Bill was rapidly going down as it was, I fail to see this as a boast to the show.

I have to disagree with you there about the Bill going down. IMHO it has improved leaps and bounds since the departure of Marquess and the Chimp. I liked Gillian Taylforth in EE and she hasnt been too bad in FW.

As long as she doesnt go down in the Bill things should be good

Mind you the Bill is becoming a second home for ex-eastenders stars (Roberta Taylor, Todd Carty, (Ken Hammond) and also Ex-footballer wives stars , Will Fletcher and now possibly Gillian Taylforth. Could be an interesting lover for Smithy :)

Have the stars of EE got a claus written in the contracts that if they leave EE they will be given a job on "the bill" nothing against gillian taylforth but i'm sure there are other actors around to chose without employing anyone from the ex EE crowd. Who is going to be next "Peggy Poison Dwarf Mitchell" as the replacement for Adam Okaro :rotfl:

:rotfl::lol: God forbid Peggy Mitchell in the Bill!!!

I can't really see Gillian fitting in the Bill and to moe she looks pretty settled in footballers wives. Come on be honest would you leave Jessie Birdsall:wub: :lol:

There has been at least one good ex eastender in the bill. maybe Gillian will do it justice. it remains to be seen

And there still is in the form of the fabulous Roberta. Todd was excellent and (Ken) was good to.

Roberta Taylor has been excellent in The Bill. I must say I had my doubts about her as I wasnt overly impressed with her in EE but Im happy to say I was pleasantly surprised. She has fitted in well in TB and without wishing to sound sexist she has become ''one of the boys''

I see your point, but at the moment, The Bill has become so stereotypical and unrealistic that it's become too predictable for my liking. Tonights episode was great though.

Tonights episode was great though.The Bill has become very realistic of late since the departure of Paul Marquess and his obsession with rape and explosions. I can relate to most of the characters in the Bill. I can compare them with real life policemen and women that I know. Of course there are a few that would never have survived in a real life police envioronment
