  Nancy is one of the best characters in the show at the moment, certainly the best of the younger cast.

  Nancy is an amazing character with her own style, I think it's extremely unfair to compare here to Waynetta Slob and Vicky Pollard.

  Could not disagree more with the OP.
  
  Nancy is a kind, caring, intelligent young woman.
  
  It doesn't matter what she wears.
  
  She has her own style and good luck to her for that.

  Pretty shallow to judge a person based on what clothes they wear.

  The irony of the OP calling others ignorant when their posts reeks of it.

  I agree. Nancy is brainy and Caring. Nikki is more chavy then Nancy imo.
  
  I like Nancy's style. It's different and works well.

  Urg, I really do not like the comedy chav characters and I am not sure if the writers hate the Working Class or are totally ignorant.
  The young blonde Carter girl is based on Waynetta Slob and Vicky Pollard? I live in a poor area and I haven't seen a young lady wearing a shell suit since 2005, her silly hairstyle and choice of boyfriends are nasty swipes too in my opinion.
  Lola, Bianca, the 1990s rave lesbian, Mrs Danny Dyer, Cat are all joke characters imo poking fun at Working Class women. Very nasty indeed.

  
  You're the one referring to working class folk as wayne and waynetta slob. You should be ashamed of your prejudices

  What a load of rubbish. Every character in soap has to fulfil a role in the story for them to work. It's just basic storytelling.
  
  On the flip side, all the "posh"/wealthy characters have all been nutters/murderers or suffering several mental or personal problems so I'm not really seeing your point OP.

  I have not seen anyone dress or look like that in real life. The only shell suit/tracksuit I have seen like that is Vicky Pollard and Waynetta Slob. I'm sorry you dont realise you're being laughed at

  Chances are if you're this judgemental over a soap character, you're more than likely like it towards "real people".

  And yet you're the one working yourself up into a state about how representative Nancy is as a character.

  Owwa.
  
  I'm sure there are other people in the world that dress like Nancy. Who cares what she wears though, best character in a long time.

  This is definitely a much more interesting topic of conversation than the original post.
  
  My guess? He was sneaking off to another gay club.

  I absolutely love Nancy. Her, Di and Mick are right at the top of the list.
  Once scene in which I will always remember and relate to her is the one when her and mick are on the sofa and he asks if she's just farted.

  Thats the whole point with Nancy, she doesn't really give a damn about her appearance and I like that about her. She's a very natural, caring, hardworking, humorous person. I didnt like her initially but she has completely grown on me.
  
  I wouldn't be surprised if the OP is slating her because she won best newcomer and he/she was hoping Skegness McQueen from Hollyoaks would win it instead.

  She's refreshing compared to the other young women in the square. She's a chip off the old block is our Nancy.

  Hollyoaks is full of chavs though. Mind you I think Nikki would fit right in there.
