Aww...I find Jade entertaining and am hoping she'll visit occasionally. :p

Keeping Jade close might even be the reason why Shabnam was written as staying in London as opposed to moving to Pakistan. It's quite unusual for a departing soap character to stay within visiting distance of their former home.

Thakree is a great loss to EE.!!
Perhaps they hope to tempt her back after
a while. Tho she is so talented Im sure she
will gain lots of other acting work.

It would be easier and more realistic to
bring back.a character who is in.London
than one who is in Pakistan!!

True, but you could say that about the many soap characters who flee hundreds, if not thousands, of miles when they leave.

Just recently in EE we've had Lauren and Peter to New Zealand, Kat and Alfie to Spain, Johnny Carter to Italy, Cindy and Liam to Germany (and Carol too I believe), Lola to Newcastle. Going back further: Grant and Peggy went to Portugal, Michelle and Sharon America, Zainab Pakistan, Stacey Mexico, Kathy South Africa. I'm sure there's plenty of other examples.

They're probably sent far away from home just so viewers won't complain they never visit. :p

Thats true!
My reasons for thinking as I do - is most of the
those who have left dont seem as talented as
Thakree!
And didnt make such an impression.:p

Also it was the soaps choice to end contract rather
than the actors.

Im sure they would always have Carol.& Grant back!!:heart:u
No comment on some of the others!
Its all personal preference !!:ninja::p

Yes, she really is an exceptional actress. I'm going to follow her career with interest. I'm curious to see her play characters that are warmer and more cheerful than Shabnam.

It seems to me that moving about half a mile away from the Square is a big adventure for most, never mind Ealing!

It was a bit quick but she'd said she was leaving for Pakistan on her own. Going with Jade was a very satisfying end to that storyline.
Now we have all the drama of Kush, Arthur and Martin.
