What Characters Would You Like To See Return?

Here are the character's I would like to return:
Arthur - We have already seen his Branch line/Ballahoo and the Fishing Village.
Murdoch - I think the CGI series needs a main line goods engine.
Molly - I think she has good potential.
Neville - I think he has good potential.

I want BoCo, Daisy, Dennis, Derek, Stepney, Arthur, Murdoch, Neville, Molly, Fergus, Duke, Freddie, Mighty Mac, Hector, Terence, George, Caroline, Elizabeth, Bulgy and Jeremy.  Yes, not all of them will return at once, but overtime, those are the characters I want back (bold indicates who I want most).

I don't really complain or want this type of stuff but I can decide on some things about this topic.
I want Rosie, 'Arry and Bert to speak again (Does that count? ) and Trevor to appear in an episode again.
1. Donald and Douglas - The famous Scottish duo technically hasn't been confirmed, but I hope they are soon, especially since they have potential like Duck and Oliver.

2. Arthur - Since his branch line is essentially revealed, all that'd need to happen is for him to return. He has a great personality and design choice, and his love for fish can make for some interesting stories too.

3. Murdoch - This character could make some interesting episode to be honest. His quiet attitude is, let's say "out of the normal" for a steam locomotive. His design is also fantastic, and an episode about him and Spencer could do wonders.

4. Daisy - An episode between her and Rosie would be brilliant, and yeah, her bitterness could lead to some great character development. Let's just hope this happens.

5. Old Slow Coach - This may sound really odd, but the fact that she's Great Western is what put her on this list. I really want an episode where she goes on the Little Western, or at least something along those lines.

If we're also including who we want to speak again, I agree with Rosie and especially 'Arry and Bert, and I'd also like Sir Handel (and Peter Sam even) to have more speaking roles. The NG railway doesn't really feel complete without each of the engines getting even screen time.

I think an episode with Daisy and Rosie sounds great too, but I'd like one with Daisy and Dennis, as Daisy could teach Dennis not to be lazy based on her own experience. A Dennis and Norman episode would be nice too.

I'd like Rosie and Stanley to speak again. I think they could be the engines that shunt the coaches for the main line engines at Knapford and the other big stations, like Thomas, Percy and Duck used to do.

I would like all characters to return eventually. "Eventually" being the word. But in the meantime here are my top 7(ish) Characters I would like to see return.
1.Neville- My personal favorite character. I instantly saw much of myself in little we got to see of him. Other than that his bulky, boxy, British build give him a unique look which I love (even if most dislike it).
2.Terence- What happened to this guy? He was one of the more iconic non-rail characters. Personally I felt Terence, Bertie, and Harold made a nice non-rail trio. He just faded away. He deserves to come back, even if it's just some cameos of him working in the fields near Thomas' banch.
3. Murdoch- This big guy would be nice to see return. His classy creamy orange with red, green, and gold stripes look great against a sea of engines primarily of blues and greens. His gentle quiet nature makes him a nice change for a big engine as most big engines are boastful and vain to some extent.
4.Arthur- The hard working engine who doesn't mind the smell of fish. It would be nice to see how he has evolved on his branch-line. And is it just me or do Arthur and Murdoch look great next to each other. I think I just like their liveries next to each other.
5/6. Daisy/BoCo- We need some more diesel representation...and not from shunters. These two would be great. BoCo would be great to add some zest to Edward's branch and Daisy on Thomas'.

The Character That Needs To Come Back Is... Me, Diesel 10! I really need to come back.

Please stop pretending you're Diesel 10, it's really quite childish and it's becoming a little weird.

Why? Is it wrong? (Just wondering...)

I don't really want to see Diesel 10 return. I think he would have been better suited to S13-16 if they used him more, but the show is more about real railways and realistic plots, and I don't see Diesel 10 fitting into that.

D10 I'm a bit on the fence about; he's interesting, but at the same time this show is more on the realistic side than fantasy. If hey can find a reasonable way to explain the claw though, I'm ok with it.

This isn't a site for role playing, plain and simple. It isn't counterproductive, it's just kind of out of place in a discussion.

All right, I'll stop.

They could go into the fantasy genre with a dream episode, then anything could happen with his claw. It is also the best way to reintroduce Lady into the series.

I personally do like Lady, so it would be cool if she returns.

Now that we know donald, Douglas and some pack members are returning, who should come next?

I say boco and Daisy, because I believe they are the last of reverend Awdry's characters from the classic series to yet be reintroduced. (Though I can't help but feel like I'm forgetting one)

Terence, Trevor, Bulgy.. Quite a lot, actually.

I still say that Diesel 10 and Ned would be the best choices.

The thing is, Diesel 10 isn't gone. He's been rendered in CGI and used in two specials and an episode. Also Ned is most likely coming back soon, seeing as a lot of the Pack is returning.

Well, yeah, I know he isn't gone, but he hardly really shows up.

The following characters to who haven't been rendered into CGI (that we know of)

Terence
Daisy
BoCo
Spiteful Breakvan (R.I.P)
Bulgy
City of Truro
Flying Scotsman
Stepny
The Diesel
Duke
Smudger
S. C. Ruffey
George
Caroline
Bulstrode
Old Slow Coach
The Horrid Lorries
Bertram
Thumper
Tiger Moth
Elizabeth
Kelly
Byron
Ned
Isobella
Fergus
Arthur
Murdoch
Molly
Neville
Dennis
Proteus
Mighty Mac
Freddie
Jeremy
Billy
Hector
Madge
Colin
Hank
Flora

Well one thing is certain; all those late model-era one-offs, such as Hank, Flora and Dennis, they won't be returning any time soon.

Let's hope not anyway! I'd be really disappointed if I found out Dennis was going to return instead of say Duke.

I actually wouldn't mind Dennis, he's got a lot more potential than most of the other one-offs (Madge, anyone?). Over Duke, maybe not, but I'd love to see him.

People are only predicting Dennis because he is the same basis as Norman and Norman was made a few years ago.

But yeah, I'd love to see Granpuff return.
