Without Sharon, the Square is awkward. It’s like a party without the one friend who starts all the best arguments. Who will run the Vic? (Please don’t say it’s Phil. Please.)
Her absence leaves a massive, leopard-print-shaped hole in the drama. The writers will probably stick her in a taxi, say she’s “visiting Vicki in Australia,” and leave it at that. It’s the soap opera way.
The big question is: will she come back for Christmas? They always do. If she’s smart, she’ll negotiate a deal where she only works Tuesdays and Thursdays. Queen behavior.
Look, I’m not crying. You’re crying. Let’s just hope this is a dramatic pause, not a full stop. Walford needs its Sharon. She’s the only one who can out-scowl Phil and out-catfight Kat. Bring her back, you cowards!
