Might all be to do with the notion that in general terms not many of us see a woman with bleached blonde waist length hair, dressed in leopard-skin, effing and jeffing when they are 70. The chewing gum and cigarettes also contribute to the 'brassy' image. She can't be that bad if she rescues horses and dogs - I also read that she is registered disabled...I keep going round in circles with Julie - I want to like her but I am not sure if I want to like her image. I would love to see her made over with a nice (shorter) hairstyle in a more appropriate colour and I would like her to lose the leopard. She has had some off the best one-liners in the show...So she is entertaining - far more so than the pseudo-gangsta crew.

I comend her on rescuing animals but then again so do lots of people,I am not bothered about her image either it's just her inner nastiness and two faced persona that I dislike.
