The difference is though, Bill Treacher can act though, whereas Bill Roache can't act.Having said that though, I think Pete Beale had more potential than Mark Fowler as a character, and the fact Pete didn't have AIDS/HIV+ was a good thing too.Pete Beale is a far better character than most of today's characters. Because of the mistake that was made with Arthur, I think bringing Pete back would help make up for that mistake. He'd fill the void left by Arthur perfectly.</blockquote>
