How pathetic killing off Kathy Beale.

I have no problems with them killing Kathy, the actress had her chance to come back and she said no numerous times. I don't understand how it is pathetic to kill Kathy. Kathy is a past character who is unlikely to ever return. Phil and Peggy are existing characters that need to move forward as characters and for the Mitchell family to be built up again as it is rather stale. EE has obligations to its present cast and characters not to its past cast and characters who may, when it suits them, decide to come back.

I couldn't see the actress coming back anyway, she has made her name in footballer's wives.. it is pointless have Katy around anyway, same as michelle. they are mentioned as place for ian and pauline to go on holiday but they are not central to the soap and bringing ben back may make Phil softer..

I just don't think it's right to kill off a character like her that was there from day one.

I think it all depends on the character as to whether they decide to kill off past characters. I would say Michelle should stay alive as poor Sharon needs her for when she has to go and do some mourning and their is still the secret about Mark Junior's real parentage. Michelle is the only one who knows so they should keep her alive just for that, as she is a potential, explosive storyline just waiting to happen. Kathy on the other hand, has no such storyline potential, IMO. I would hate for them to start killing off every past character but sometimes the killing of a past character is okay, if the potential storylines justify it.

I hope they remember that Ben is slightly deaf as well.

if they don't then they can probably explain it away with some story that doesn't make sense

[Chris_2k11]

I never knew that about Ben.

I never knew that about Ben.
