In a press report executive-producer Louise Berridge commented "Dean and Bindya have contributed an enormous amount to the programme..However, we feel that the characters have reached the end of their natural course in the show, and they will both be leaving in Spring 2003...It is always sad to be saying goodbye to a good double act, so we will be leaving the door open for both characters". Nita made a return for one episode in 2019. Solanki has also appeared in many stage productions including playing Juliet in Romeo and Juliet at the English Shakespeare Company.
