  1. Since British soaps don't do the back from the dead storylines ever other week, I doubt that Angie would ever return.

    Yet, I think it would be cool if they did a one off. Sharon has a dream that Angie & Den didn't die and still running the Vic. Of course Sharon would need to come back to have this dream.
