Biography:

Vicki Davidson is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, played by Emma Herry from the character's birth in 1986 to 1988, Samantha Leigh Martin from 1988 to 1995, and Scarlett Alice Johnson from 2003 to 2004. She is the daughter of Michelle Fowler (Susan Tully) and Den Watts (Leslie Grantham). The character is born in the serial, conceived in a controversial storyline about teenage pregnancy. Vicki's character was written out in October 1995, after Susan Tully, who played Vicki's mother Michelle, decided to leave the soap. After an eight-year absence, she was reintroduced by Executive Producer Louise Berridge in January 2003 as a rebellious teenager. Johnson quit the role in 2004. Her stint between 2003-2004 focused on her relationship with Spencer Moon (Christopher Parker), becoming pregnant with Spencer's child and subsequently having an abortion, a difficult relationship with her estranged father Den who she once believed had died, and a relationship with lecturer Tommy Grant (Robert Cavanah). The media was generally critical about the character upon her return, due to her American accent and its sudden disappearance.
