The BBC has said she returns - during the week of August 13 - in "desperate need of Phil's help". And at the same time Phil's world begins to unravel as his girlfriend Shirley uncovers the truth about who killed her friend Heather.
Lorraine Newman, executive producer of the show, said: "An exciting week packed full of dramatic twists and turns lies ahead for the audience and the justice they have been desperately waiting for has finally arrived."
Actress Letitia Dean made her first EastEnders appearance way back in February 1985. She departed after 10 years, but returned in 2001 for a further five years before leaving again.

MSN -can't you stop these 'dating site' posts - gets so boring!!
26/07/2012 21:23
I would like to ask why you print all the dating crap,Its a bloody nuisance and should be stopped.
26/07/2012 17:12
No matter how many times I click spam to get rid of these dating site intrusions, they still pop back. If MSN can't sort this out, I will not be reading these comments again.
Eastenders? Stopped watching it ages ago, it is just more of the same, continuous boring unbelievable storylines, characters screaming at each other rather than talking - I don't need this in my life, so Sharon can come back as often as the likes, I for one will not be watching.

There is as much interest in deadenders as there is in these dating sites that msn seem to think we want they tell you that they will remove post that are offensive and yet seem incapable of removing or better still stopping them.

26/07/2012 16:05

Who thinks that Cora is Sharon's mum?

Firstly I have to declare that I LOVE EASTENDERS! And what?
Secondly yay they're bringing back one of my favourite characters. Sharon Watts
Thirdly anybody who says people who watch soaps are stupid, sad, boring, crazy and what ever else are all of the above themselves because they do not have the brain capacity to understand that some people like a bit of escapism now and again and although it not be to their liking someone else may do and it's not a crime or a big deal it's just a fact of life. Some people like different things. OK? Get over it and move on.

OH my God, it is the most depressing show on TV and they keep dragging back the same old tierd actors, will some one do us a favour and like you would help a a sick dog just put it down.
26/07/2012 16:38
so what, same old same old.
26/07/2012 18:12
Brilliant! Perhaps now the show will be worth watching again. Only watch now as I have always watched from day one but have never been so bored with it!! The writers make plot lines stretch out for such a long period that to be frank by the time they resolve I have lost the plot!! Come on, I know there are some good writers and plot lines to be had so please, please take another look and get rid of the dross and bring some excitement and humour back into what used to be a brilliant soap.
26/07/2012 16:16
how many more crap actors are going to return to this depressing show.
Eastenders has bean's united
26/07/2012 22:32
if you see the dating sites and hover the mouse over them and report them, gets rid of them, thats if you want to
26/07/2012 14:14
Get rid of this mundane programme along with the licence fee which is basically government funding for a private company showing mostly rubbish programmes.
26/07/2012 14:06
Sharons 'plot' is that her hubby has kidnapped her son she had with denise rickman, zzzzzzz another boring EE plot, gotta say Sharon is not my fav, cant stand the way she talks and pouts!!!!
26/07/2012 12:43
it amazes me the bbc claim they are short off money and sacking the working people but they are still employing new news readers and correspon dents and bringing back has beens to a show that should be flushed down the toilet.
