in time for the show’s epic 40th anniversary. Bobby Davro last appeared on the BBC soap opera

star was in Walford for just under 18 months when he opted to take on the acting gig. Vinnie was first seen on the Square causing havoc for legendary Shirley Carter, played by actress Linda Henry. The pair eventually go on to date one another after discovering they have feelings for each other. However, things soon crumbled for the pair when Shriley admitted she loved Phil Mitchell more than she loved Vinnie. Ahead of his Albert Square exit, Vinnie and Shirley decided to reunite and move to France together. However, when he finds out she’d had sex with Phil again, he tells her to stay behind as she is only settling for him as second best. Vinnie then went to France all alone. Now, Bobby sparked rumours that he could be back after the BBC soap began revealing a slew of huge stars would be making shock comebacks as it gears up for its big 40th anniversary.

During an appearance on ITV’s Good Morning Britian, Bobby was probed show host Rob Rinder about if a comeback was on the cards. Rob asked the comedy star: “People will be cross if I don’t ask might you go back to EastEnders?” Bobby Davro freaks out when he sees a spider in the CBB shower Appearing caught off-guard, Bobby’s response appeared to hint that he might be back just in time for the big birthday. He said: “I don’t know, maybe. Maybe next January.” EastEnders airs its 40th anniversary in late February meaning that filming would be taking place in January in time for the scenes to be screened.

Bobby then followed up to say: “It’s going to be a blinking cold day when I go back there.” The star has previously had less than favourable things to say about his time on the show after being left stunned by his lack of “proper storylines”. He has even branded his own portrayal of Vinnie as “not very good” in the past. Others who have or are returning for the big 40th include Jane Beale, Chrissie Watts and David Wicks. Best soap affair love triangles LOVE triangles are a fundamental part of soap-land, but which ones have become the most iconic? EASTENDERS Bradley/Stacey/Max: Stacey Slater began an affair with boyfriend Bradley Branning’s dad Max in 2007. Despite their romps, Stacey still married Bradley, but their deceit came out in an iconic Christmas Day episode that year.

Grant/Sharon/Phil: Heading even further back in Walford history, EastEnders fans were gripped in the 90s as Sharon Watts had a one-night stand with her brother-in-law Phil Mitchell. Sharon confided in best friend Michelle Fowler – not realising it was caught on tape – and her husband Grant eventually found out and played it in front of everyone at the Queen Vic. Syed/Amira/Christian: Syed Masood was engaged to Amira before realising he had feelings for another man, Christian, which he confessed to him on his wedding day. A devout Muslim, Syed refused to admit his true sexuality and went ahead and married Amira anyway, but when they returned, the two men started an affair before being caught in the act by Amira. CORONATION STREET Shelley/Peter/Lucy: Peter Barlow took the concept of a love triangle and ran with it in Coronation Street – extending it to bigamy. He was in a relationship with Shelley Unwin but started dating Lucy Richards, and quickly married her after she fell pregnant with his son, Simon.

But it didn’t stop him also marrying Shelley, but he was eventually caught when Lucy turned up in Weatherfield and the two women confronted him. Ken/Deidre/Mike: Back in 1982, Deirdre Barlow started sleeping with her husband’s nemesis Mike Baldwin in secret, before confessing all a year later. When Mike turned up at the marital home, Deirdre was being throttled by her husband who then kicked her out, but years later they reconciled. Maria/Aidan/Eva: In 2017, Aidan Connor started sleeping with girlfriend Eva Price’s best friend, Maria Connor. Eva eventually found out and she decided to take revenge by faking a pregnancy, spending his money and planned to confront him on their wedding day.

But she had a change of heart when a remorseful Aidan confessed, and decided to marry him anyway, only for Maria to arrive and expose her fake pregnancy. EMMERDALE Ross/Debbie/Pete: Debbie Dingle found herself torn between two brothers, Ross and Pete Barton in 2015 in Emmerdale. She eventually decided to marry Pete but yet again, a soap wedding day was ruined when the groom learned of his bride’s betrayal via a recording played at the wedding. Chrissie/Robert/Aaron: Robert Sugden was married to Chrissie White and all seemed well – until he began a steamy affair with Aaron Dingle. Robert’s ex Katie Sugden almost exposed the affair – but fell to her death before she had the chance. However, a guilty Aaron eventually cracked and told Chrissie about the affair – after which she announced it to the whole pub.
