I don't get the hate Denny gets these days. I know he can be annoying but he's only a little kid. Viewers are clearly annoyed with him when he was a trouble maker last year.

    He is only a child but he has annoyed me with his behaviour last year so I am glad he had a break and is now back and behaving better!

    I thought he was quite sweet when he was playing ball in the house. They need to build on that and they need to forget the spoiled brat nonsense.

    Loads of kids have hair like that these days, it's very realistic.

    That's a bit unfair, he hasn't put a foot wrong for months. The need to look at Sharon...this is the second child whose life she's put in danger.

    It would have been funny if he had shot himself with the gun! EE wouldn't have the guts though!

    That is correct but Sharon never meant to put Lexi and Denny in danger. She's not a heartless woman :p

    She must realize that she needs help and that she can't keep doing this, she's not stupid, and yet she did not seek help herself. She was dishonest about her addiction and is hiding the gun...you'd think it would occur to her that children's lives are at stake.

    If she goes back on drugs and has a gun in the house anything can happen.

    Child characters aren't interesting, full stop, and usually are poorly acted.

    Yeah but she'll get annoying soon, just like Tiffany did or Simon in Corrie. They all go that way.

    it was the worst thing to give her a kid when bringing her back. and that kid does not help, the acting is woeful, the plot is worse. And as a viewer I don't care about Denny.

    It would have been a good story if Denny ran out in front of a car Danielle-style or just got lost altogether

    hes not a baby he is like 7 or 8 so hes an annoying brat sorry, but just because somebody is a child it doesnt mean we have to like them. usually people like him end up horrible adults anyway.

    This. Then they added insult to injury by making her an over-protective mum who can't see any wrong in her brat no matter what happens. Even Phil said last night she's the kind of woman who spoils her kid and as a viewer it's p!sses me right off.

    Denny reminds me of Janine when she was a kid. Someone posted some clips and she was a right terror. :D

    When she previously left the show she was already pregnant and in her absence the characters that were still on the show who knew her mentioned her child so it would have looked a bit odd if she came back into the show with no child with her. Unless you are suggesting that the child should either have been killed off or staying with relatives on her return.

    But on the other hand the fact that she got pregnant in the first place despite the fact she was told she couldn't have children always felt odd to me. I think Sharon worked better as a childless woman.

    On another note did Sharon ever find out that Whitney did not assault her son when Whitney was working at the school?

    I absolutely loved it when Sharon started battering the snarling little brat. I could definitely get used to seeing that every week.

    It's a bit dramatic most kids I know would just cry or get angry and run out to their room not out of house down the road.
