Getting rid of the Sharpe's as quickly as they did, didn't really make sense to me. Sure you can over cast and you're always taking a gamble when introducing a new family. With the Sharpe's though, they just weren't in the show long enough to make that decision (IMO)

It tells me a different story that the writers obviously didn't have a clue. I'm no expert on writing and creating characters for a story, however common sense tells me that if you're planning on introducing a new family, surely those plans would include at least 6 months (even 12) of stories/ideas where the new family is going to fit in.

I never understood why Corrie created the Morton's then after a month not really have a clue what direction they were planning which lead to the axing of the whole family.

This thread has just reached 3,000 posts. :elephant:

Indeed, they built this family up and had storylines planned for them then scrapped it all of a sudden:conf:.

They have obviously reviewed how storylines are written from now on because there has been lots of behind the scenes changes at Hollyoaks HQ;).

The Jacqui and Rhys scenes are brilliant:).

Oh Texas is back and Rae too:D.

It's definitely needed.

I'm really loving the Jacqui & Rhys story right now. Claire Cooper is an amazing actress.

Silas!:devil: He's going to hand out stay safe leaflets, oh the irony of that:laugh3:.

The E4 :bored:

Rae :bored:

please go away.

How fit did Texas look :amazed:

I totally forgot about tonight's show. I've had it recorded so I will catch up tomorrow. I might even wait until I have tomorrow's episode and watch them back to back.:elephant:
She really is a one trip pony. I had hoped we'd seen the last of her.

She is so dull, she was better when she was all weird, but obviously she wasn't real then. She started off a right chav, and now she just a total different person

Most pointless character of the year goes to Rae i'm afraid.

I really liked Newt I thought his story was wonderfully told and found it really gripping at times, especially with Eli.

Not long after Rae came into the show full time I really started to find Newt boring and I didn't realise it was because of Rae. Now looking back all the signs were there.

Yeah, it got **** when he became obsessed with Rae, then changed his image and started going out with Theresa :bored:

Gilly is another that bores me, how long is he out of the show for ?

hes been out since April 1st :)

It would've been great if they had a a gang around Gilly and Rhy's age that went to festivals and hung out at stuff. But they had to give them the most miserable storyline ever :bored: A post student gang in their late 20's would be great

Am i the only person who actually likes Gilly?

Used to like him but they ruined him

i missed the ep when Rae came back bbut who did she have scenes with

I didn't realise he was that unpopular.

He doesn't have to speak, just watching him sway his arms and head when he is walking is enough to do my head in.


I know it's only been two days, but I just can't remember.

shows how pointless she is

Jamil too, very very pointless, espeically after E4 as you'll see. The students don't even really make sense now, there's hardly any and you never see them doing anything. And it's stupid how people come and go living in that one same halls flat :joker:

is Texas back in it?

shes very underused
