Nick has to be first in line.

But let's not forget most of the Ferreira family (special mention for Adi) and Andy in EE.

At least the EE actors have the excuse of crap scripts. Nick has no excuse whatsoever!

Yeah, but at least Nick is good-looking so it's easier not to wince when he comes onscreen!

Lol.. I just relate to other bitchy females I guess.. we must stick together! Hah, no, I'm not a major fan.. just not a critic either.

Can't we bury the hatchet? Or do you wood-choppers persist in keeping it at hand.

Yeah, he's not too weedy to pass for cute. Andy's "Mr. Puniverse" comment was so close to the bone I felt bad for Chris!

Well by that reckoning I'd put the entire cast of Eastenders well above them in the wooden stakes..

yeah I agree Adam Rickett is sooooooooo wooden! He makes the Thunderbirds look like humans!

I'd also say that more than half the cast of Fair City is wooden too

Top of my list:

Adam Rickett - (Nick Tilsley)
Dev Alahan
Maya
Little Mo (I seem to be the only one who thinks Kacey Ainsworth is an abysmal actress)
The entire Slater and Ferriera families
Nigel Harman (Dennis)
Letitia Dean

Have to disagree with you about little Mo though. I thought her acting was superb during the Trevor stories and the Graham rape saga.

Definately agree with you about Letitia Dean overweight overrated overactor

I just see Little Mo as a poor man's Anita Dobson, I've seen better acting in a GCSE drama group. By the time the Graham storyline came up I was frankly bored with the character and frankly the suspension of disbelief was unreal, after all the stuff she went through with Trevor she then had it happen all over again. To be fair, she is better at acting 'serious' hardhitting storylines but when her character is all 'chirpy' her acting becomes too self conscious.

& Letitia Dean needs lip surgery on that constantly twitching pout.

Spencer Moon (same expression since day 1)
Zoe
Gus
Ferreiras
Big Mo
Charlie Slater
Andy Hunter
Sam Mitchell
Miss Piggy Watts

Kacey Ainsworth? Oh no.. I think she's great too. Wooden is the very last thing I'd call Letitia Dean.. she's over-animated if anything. I think Sharon has to be one of the most hysterical, over-emotional characters ever. She goes through my head with her constant whining..

I agree with a lot of the other suggestions.. except Big Mo and Dev.
