After being initially sceptical of her I think Danielle harold has blossomed as an actress amazingly well and I would vote her as the best actress in the young female group.

I think Jasmyn Banks and Rachel Bright are good but its through mainly their non EastEnders work that theyve shone more in my opinion.

    I think Hetti Bywater is. I know alot of people dislike her, but to me she has brought a warmth and vulnerability to Lucy.

    Danielle Harold stands out for me. Rachael was good towards the end of her last stint but hasn't impressed me since her return.

    Edit : I forgot Shona. She was very good in the abuse s/l with Tony and again with Rob. She seems to thrive with more adult themes or when being used with her family. We saw a bit of her old spark after Janine had her baby.

    Im not keen on Hetti although shes an improvement to a small degree on the last actress.

    If anyone has proved themselves on the show its the very understated Danielle Harold.Shes been a revelation to me.

    I agree with this. I know a lot of people raved about the previous actress but I couldn't stand her. I much prefer Hetti Bywater and like you say she has bought out a certain warmth and vulnerability to Lucy underneath the hard exterior, something which never came across to me through the previous actress.

    Danielle for me all the way. She has made what was a very unlikeable character into someone deserving of empathy, her scenes with Lexi are lovely, the in the live birth episode i thought she was excellent, I really like her, great find

    Dani Harold by a street!
    In fact, i think she's now the best young soap actress i've ever seen!
    Way better than the vastly overrated Lacey Turner!

    If she continues to work at her craft, she could go on to work in the movies. That's how much potential i personally think she has.

    Danielle Harold.
    I do think Jacqueline, Shona and Rachel are good as well, but I think out of all of them Danielle the best.
    I think Lorna (Abi) also a good actress.
    Maybe Danielle might win best young actress at the BSA.

    Last year I was criticising Danielle for being wooden but she's proved me spectacularly wrong...really shown what she's capable of. She gets my vote.

    Hetti (Lucy) got my vote, though I like Jacqueline Jossa and Danielle Harold as well.

    Same. She proved me wrong, last year I was calling for her to be axed and didnt rate her as an actress but she been amazing throughout this Lexi SL. She did an amazing job for the special Olympic live bit where she had to give birth live.
    It just shows given the right material you can see that someone you thought couldnt act is in fact a brilliant actress.

    I like most of them tho I wish we seen more of the old Lucy's personality in the new one tho I guess that's not Hetti's fault, Shona was awesome when she had her abuse and rob storyline and I liked her scenes with Ryan but she's not got much going on right now. Lauren is a typically stroppy teenager and the actress plays that well. Danielle has been amazing from the live labour to becoming so attached to Lexi and heartbroken to loose her it's been upsetting to watch, really great acting. Ps. I'm a newbie :)
