when daniels, who played carly's father kevin wicks, quit the serial, producers decided to write out the rest of the wicks family. discussing her contract failing to be renewed, shirley stated: "it's a shame the option on my contract hasn't been picked up, but it wouldn't feel right to remain in the square without the rest of my family." in her final scenes carly and her stepmother denise (diane parish) decide to go travelling to scatter kevin's ashes. shirley felt her exit storyline was fitting, stating: "kevin was desperate to travel and both carly and denise think it would be a fitting tribute for him if they travelled with his ashes and scattered them in the countries he so wanted to see. and carly won't be coming back." shirley felt one good thing came out of kevin's death - "the one positive thing that comes out of kevin's death is that carly and denise get a lot closer. denise is there for her and together they decide that kevin would have wanted them to do this together." although shirley was happy with her exit storyline, she had originally hoped carly would be killed on-screen.
