Roxy's romance with Dr Al in EastEnders comes to an abrupt end during next week's episodes when he's resigns from his post over complaints about his conduct - even though Roxy wasn't registered at the practice.
They weren't really going anywhere and when Roxy discovered that she'd inherited £3 million and The Vic, Al was well and truly pushed on to the back burner.
So what does the woman behind the character think about Roxy's lacklustre love life?
Dr Al's leaving, so that removed any possibility of a romance with him - do you think Roxy will ever be lucky in love again?
"Roxy nearly settled down and once again it was ripped away from her! It's a shame, though, because the public seemed to really like Roxy and Al together. It was just bad timing that he was going. I guess Roxy can have a bit more fun now. Not that I've seen anything in the scripts, though! What's so funny is that people are so quick to say 'Roxy's the Square's bike' or 'the slapper' but her sister's going around pricking condoms and sleeping with anything with a pulse! Roxy's been like a spinster since Sean left and the first bit of action she gets is the doctor."
How about battling Janine for Ryan?
"Well I would go there if the writers wanted it, except Ronnie's been there and I think Roxy seriously has to steer clear of any men that her sister's been with. Although Ronnie's had every man on the Square - except Charlie Slater. There's a distinct lack of good-looking men around Walford. We need some new fitties in!"
