I loved Jamie in Hollyoaks and knew that he could act well when he has a decent script, or talking about Eastenders, some lines!!

What did everyone else think of his performance?

What do we want to see from him now?

    I thought both Sadie and Jake were brilliant last night. having some experience of living with a drinker, the dialogue rang very true. The desperate hope that someone won't drink and the fury and fear when they do. Also, Jake's lying was very accurate too. Weird and wonderful excuses given, lies and flat denials - spot on.

    Was very impressed by Jamies acting last night Just watch his eyes

    EE can write flawed and interesting men very well sometimes.

    I enjoyed last night. Jamie still does the "starey" eyes he had in Hollyoaks though, if anyone knows what I mean?

    I think Jamie did well last night, but it's just impossible to care. They have done nothing to make the viewer give a damn about Sadie or Jake until last night. The producers don't know what they are doing when it comes to introducing new characters. They can't do big 'straight to the forefront' entrances (see the god awful 'Summer of Moons'), and they evidently can't do slow burn entrances - show 4 scenes of him eye-f*cking / actually f*cking Lauren, then all of a sudden drop a shock reveal :rolleyes:

    Sounds like you need to switch off then instead of spreading negative comments all the time...

    I can not stand his starey eye facial expressions and his forced whispers. I think he is a horrible actor. Thought he was crap in Hollyoaks and even worse here, No wonder they kicked him back across the pond. She wasn't any better either. Their scenes, done by other actors, would have been heart rending, when instead, they just came across as forced. They don't have any chemistry at all, which is a real shame as the storyline is ok.

    It was Warren transferred to EE.
    Having said that, i couldn't care less because i simply like watching Jamie on screen. He has a presence, and imo, that's often more important than having technical acting ablitiy.

    I'd rather not but thanks for the tip :rolleyes:

    How do people think he did tonight? I thought it was a good seeing him interact with Max. Oh how little Max knows :D
