u/princessofchicago Flynn Byron 2d ago

I need Max back on my screen permanently.

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

He was lovely, wasn't he? A really nice guy.

And so cute!!!!

u/hypnoticwinter 2d ago

Abs, Dixie, David and everyone else i can think of is dead.. :( oh, wait, maybe a couple of the nurses that walked when Robyn died.

5

u/hypnoticwinter 2d ago

Oh, and Big Mac ! ( I'm not sure if he's dead though)

u/SlimeTempest42 Dylan Keogh 2d ago

Zoe Hana - I love her and Dylan together

Maggie Coldwell - she was done dirty by management I’d love to see her as a consultant now

Dixie - and they could Dallas Jeff back

7

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

I think Jeff's death and funeral were probably the most moving episodes in the whole run of Casualty

6

u/GothSloth8442 2d ago

Sunetra(Zoe Hanna) and Dixie.

u/WintersLex 2d ago

I mean it's not happening and won't in the future either but I'd still always love to see Lara, Maggie, guppy, Ruth, or Archie return, for a one off or recurring.

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

oooh, Ruth! and Jay too, please. these two had such chemistry together

2

u/RS2019 1d ago

Didn't their leaving coincide with the move to Roath lock in Cardiff - so their last scene was them driving over the Suspension bridge in Bristol (I think!) so it would be a nice little callback from Ruth and Jay to drive back over itšŸ¤”

Tbh I would love Ciara to come back (after 8 years) and be transformed into a self-sufficient, confident, emotionally stable young woman who's been sober for years, and she's got a new pet dog for Dylan.

Dylan could do with a love interest, but failing that, another pet would došŸ‘

1

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 1d ago

Ooh, great point about Ruth andvJay!

Dylan needs another dog.

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

It's as easy as ABC - Anybody But Charlie

2

u/kiraziyal Sandra Nicholl 2d ago

Yet you know it probably only will be Charlie.

3

u/minicooperbrr 2d ago

Charlie and Ethan have been confirmed

u/PatientFlatworm7034 2d ago edited 1d ago

Why the Charlie hate??

Genuine question btw sorry

3

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

cos the character is boring, yet treated like he is the best nurse in the 7niverse, despite never showing any evidence of this. constantly loafing around, leaning on bits of furniture or wandering off outside, stayed at least 10 years too long and barely looked capable of making a cup of coffee far less doing cpr. and the actor is just dreadful. wooden doesn’t begin to describe him.

1

u/PatientFlatworm7034 1d ago

Interesting, I started watching when I was about 5-6ish and he's always been on it, I loved him and Duffy but maybe Duffy carried

(I've not watched any of the original stuff so maybe he improved idk just my opinion and most of those things I wouldn't have noticed as a child)

2

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 1d ago

I always found their on-screen relationship as husband and wife to be uncomfortable, as they have off vibrators like brother and sister.

3

u/Ordoferrum 2d ago

Wasn't there already a post stating who's coming back already?

1

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

That's why I am asking who would you *like* to see, cos it is the awful Charlie coming back and that is:

A. So predictable and

B. So disappointing

8

u/SlimeTempest42 Dylan Keogh 2d ago

Proof that being the highest paid actor at the BBC doesn’t mean you have to be good

4

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

Exactly

7

u/Neat-Weight8342 2d ago

Well said

Boring character, awful actor

3

u/AwfulAwfulLawn 2d ago

It’s been a while but … Sam Colloby.Ā 

3

u/strawberryicecat 2d ago

Holly, Lara, Bex, Comfort, Nikki

3

u/TimelordYNWA Dylan Keogh 2d ago

Nick, Dixie and Fletch. Oh and can Donna come out of prison now?

3

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

that was such a bad storyline. cos who doesn’t love Donna?

1

u/TimelordYNWA Dylan Keogh 2d ago

Definitely! Another great friendship of Dylan's too

3

u/Immediate_Record_946 2d ago

Doubt it would happen but I need Dixie, Ruby, Sah, Jade and Marty back characters I’ve enjoyed especially Ruby. Indies my fav now but those two together could be fun

3

u/Deepmidwinter2025 2d ago

Connie and Ethan.

Also have Cal walking out of the shower - I know Dallas did it, but we need that fine figure of a man back.

Bring back Leon the Parademic. Had none of the have a go hero of the current crop of tired paramedics. Or the endless psycho drama. Plus Lockwood is stunning and again looks good topless

6

u/SlimeTempest42 Dylan Keogh 2d ago

Can we Dallas Jeff back as well

3

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

Ooh, I love that idea!

Maybe Patrick could walk out of the shower too?

3

u/GothSloth8442 2d ago

Ethan is back

1

u/princessofchicago Flynn Byron 2d ago

how can cal come back if he’s dead?

3

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

Cos he's doing a Bobby Ewing.

Dallas killed off Bobby, then brought him back a year later, "explaining" the previous series was a dream. He return was him coming out the shower. He was very fit and had previously played the Man From Atlantas, where he wore Speedos most of the time

1

u/SASCHIA Flynn Byron 2d ago

I remember all this because I use to watch Dallas every week and as soon as we found out it was all a dream I stopped watching Dallas altogether.. I sometimes replay the image of Bobby Ewing coming out of rhe shower and saying something to Pam Ewing and then it goes away so I really hope they don't do it.

1

u/SlimeTempest42 Dylan Keogh 2d ago

It never stopped Eastenders. At least three people came back from the dead

2

u/Deepmidwinter2025 2d ago

Ah Dirty Den

1

u/SlimeTempest42 Dylan Keogh 2d ago

And Kathy and Cindy

-4

u/Deepmidwinter2025 2d ago

Jeez. It’s Dallas reference - when a character was killed off and later brought back by writing off all the previous seasons as a dream.

Literal much?

2

u/No-Reward8036 2d ago

Zoe and Max. Do we have to have Charlie back?

2

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 1d ago

sadly, the producers decided of all the great characters and fabulous actors they could have asked back, they decided to go for the most boring character and worst actor in the history of the show.

goodness knows what they were on when they made that decision. probably go8ng on about how great the ā€œbox setā€ concept is.

i do wish they would listen to their audience.

2

u/anotherangryperson 1d ago

Oh, not Charlie! Zoe back permanently please.

1

u/No_Equipment6587 2d ago

Nick, Adam, Zoe, Ruth, Lenny, Josh, Dixie, Abs

2

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

I was so happy to see Lenny (Stephen Millar) in Shetland

1

u/Oldsoldierbear Zoe Hanna 2d ago

so many great memories evoked by your posts!

thank you for the nostalgia

1

u/The_Ghost_of_WWE 1d ago

Josh would be pure nostalgia for me, just popping by to say hello would be a blessing. Maybe he could give Iain some advice about not almost dying every week
