EastEnders' Shane Ritchie teases return of Spencer Moon
The 61-year-old opened up about new executive producer Ben Wadey's plans after the soap scooped eight gongs at the British Soap Awards. Speaking to The Mirror, Shane, who has played Alfie Moon for more than 20 years, spoke of how he'd like a fellow Moon to return too. A post shared by EastEnders (@bbceastenders) Christopher Parker, who played Alfie's younger brother Spencer, arrived on the Square alongside Alfie and their grandmother Nana Moon in 2002. Spencer quickly became a fan favourite, which led Christopher to take part in the first series of Strictly Come Dancing in 2004 – coming in second place. After Christopher left the soap in 2005, he quit acting and re-trained to become a lawyer. Shane told The Mirror: "I would like him to come back. "One of my sons keeps in touch with Christopher [Parker], but he's a lawyer now. "He flies between LA and London. I would love to think that one day they might bring back Spencer, but so much is going on at the moment. 'Alfie could probably do without that." It's not the first time Christopher's name has been mentioned surrounding the soap this year – after Spencer's ex-partner Vicki Fowler returned in February.
