The Slaters are a proud working class family, but Belinda always wanted to move up the social ladder and likes to see herself as a bit grander than her sisters.

When she married wealthy Neville Peacock, she was beside herself. But she returned once again to Walford after things went south in her marriage.

When Belinda dumped Neville she decided to come home. She chose to move in with her cousin Stacey and she set up a beauty salon. Walford wasn’t big enough for larger-than-life Belinda however, and she ditched her salon, Elysium, in order to take to the open road.

In November the spitfire took off with an old friend in order to explore Italy, one of her teen dreams. Surely she’s had her fill of the villas and art and pasta, by now, right? Would Norris consider coming back to her old Albert Square stomping grounds? When she left the popular BBC 1 sudser Norris made sure to keep the door to a return open. She went on record as saying, “I hope to be back one day.”
