Janine Butcher

[Perdita]

My biggest concern about Janine returning is that if they are going to give her a love interest they don't spoil the character Janine and make her fall madly in love and turn into a goodie-goodie boring character like the writers of EE have done with so many other characters over the years.

I hope she still has her mean streaks. I did love the scenes with Paul Trueman though. In the end she did care genuinely for him, but circumstances weren't right.

I read somewhere (?) that she will not be as bad as before but I am sure we will see a few fisty-cuffs coming along.

EASTENDERS hubby-killer Janine Butcher shows her sheer nerve — slinking back into Walford with BRIDAL stockings under her coat.

The BBC1 bitch, played by Charlie Brooks, returns in the run-up to Christmas, just before the fifth anniversary of when Janine pushed hubby Barry (Shaun Williamson) off a cliff.

A show source said: “Has Janine got married, is she fleeing a wedding? There’s an element of that — that’s all we can say.”

Guess they’re keeping us all in suspenders!

It says she will be on screen in the Christmas run-up, so probably another month or so before we see her.
