Ronnie's Recap
It's certainly going to be a big week for Ronnie as her trial finally heads to court, but the big question on everyone's lips is, *Insert best cockney accent* will she be goin' dahhhn?
Ronnie arrived with younger sister Roxy back in 2007, swapping the sun of Ibiza for the glitz and glam of Walford. Since then her time on the square has been non stop drama, including run-ins with estranged father Archie, long-lost daughter Danielle, smooth talking Jack, and fiery sister Roxy.
She immediately formed a close bond with 'Auntie Peg' and helped run the Vic as well as owning the sought after Eastend club, R&R. Ronnie also broke a few hearts in her time, with the on-again off-again relationship between her and Jack, which *finally* ended in marriage late 2010.
To help celebrate all this drama we have made a special 60 second recap video, looking back on Ronnie's time in the Square. Why not check it out and let us know what *your* favourite Ronnie moment has been...

I definitely prefer the moments where Ronnie is happy and moments with Roxy & Jack. It's such a shame she wasn't allowed some happier moments during her time on the square. I have loved some of the moments with her last week. The talk she had with Roxy last week about going to prison was heart breaking. My wish for Ronnie would be that one day she returns to the square and is finally allowed a child with Jack! But I wish Sam all the best in the future - she'll definitely be missed. ♥

I love the chemistry she has with Jack, Roxy and also the chemistry she had with Peggy, and I also the episodes where she was involved with Dot. My favourite storylines involving Ronnie are, the Vic fire aftermath and where she opened up to peggy about being pregnant, the wedding, and most definately the Danielle storyline. Samantha Womack is an amazing actress, and I will miss her not being in Eastenders, she is my fav character, and glad I have been able to meet her. And I think Samantha did an amazing job with the baby swap storyline, she was fantastic. x

Fair enough, the whole story with Archie was entertaining (leading up to his murder) but she has become the most depressing woman to ever be screened on TV!
Shame as I really liked her at first but now she does gives cold glares out of the window and is soo morbid.

Eastenders ruined Ronnies character and for that I hate them and anyone who's reading this, YOU should hate them as well! Ronnie was the only entertaining character left in Walford and I've been following her storylines hoping for something promising but it's all been rubbish for her. I hope Ronnie leaves Walford and lives a happy life. BUT after Ronnies gone I'm not watching Eastenders ever again and I believe any TRUE Eastenders fan will join me in a strike from Eastenders the minute Ronnies gone!

She is complex and a joy to watch.
I think the baby swap was a big mistake though. EE shouldn’t have over done the tragedy on Ronnie. She deserved a break.
She is the most endearing character and Sam is amazing.
I am considering switching off after Ronnie’s final episode.
Hopefully she will return and EE will allow her to be happy with Jack. I really miss the strong, independent, intelligent and stunning woman that arrived in EE in 2007. Ronnie and Roxy uplifted the show at a time when it was really needed.
Good luck Sam! Love you. I hope to see you back. Such a brilliant actress and a huge loss to EE.

I hope Ronnie will back to EastEnders may next year
I really felt sorry for Ronnie.
I fancy Ronnie since her first appearance.
I described Ronnie as:
1 Sexy
2 Attractive
3 Beautiful
4 Cute
5 Lovely
I hope Jack will ruin Michael Moon's Life as a Revenge for what he did to Ronnie
Ronnie has been the very best character in EastEnders.
EastEnders will Never Be The Same Again without Ronnie.
Ronnie Does NOT deserve to go Prison.
It DOES NOT matter what She did to kat.
I Hated Michael Moon Since his first appearance, because I describe him as:
1 Idiot
2 Mental
3 Coward
4 manipulative
5 Cheat
6 Dirty
7 The Ladies Now hate him
8 Disgusting
9 Low Life
10 Rude
11 Horrible
12 he use women for SEX Not LOVE
13 NOT Respective to His Father
14 Sick Man
15 Demon
16 EVIL
Michael Moon is MY WORST Enemy on Earth
Michael Moon is Exactly same as Archie Mitchell (Both ARE EVIL DEMONS)
I Won't rest until Michael Moon leaves EastEnders for Good.

When her and Roxy first arrived on the square i didn't warm to her straight away like i did to Roxy. Roxy seemed upbeat and my type of character, whereas Ronnie was more hidden and in the shadow of Roxy i think. But when you saw her go to see her dad my opinion completely changed and i know it sounds stupid but i almost felt bad for not liking her. Every storyline she been given has received criticism, alot of it. I understand why Sam's leavin, i wouldn't wanna go to work everyday knowing i'll be crying for the majority of it. I hope she does something else. More comedy. I love 'Game On' !! Have every series on dvd, (just thought i'd add it in like.) EastEnders has lost its best character and i'll strongly be relying on Roxy to keep the spirit of the Mitchells up! Their a dying race! Anyway, good luck

Despite the appallingly bad baby swap storyline & poor scripts she shone as one of the best actors that EE has ever had. Ronnie should never have gone to prison. The whole trial was a farce & unrealistic. Ronnie should have had a happy ending. Good luck Samantha.
