I totally agree that Michael Moon was really bad last night! Really bad! Can't remember their real names but also:

Connor. Awful character, awful actor, hope he's gone for good.
Syed. He's definitely had his moments, but I agree he kind of underacts a lot of the time

I'd have also said Shane Ritchie, but he's been really good through the baby swap, so I'm converted.

Jake wood is the best - he is so natural onscreen

Worst is Darren Miller or Conor

Feel sorry for Scott as a few on here have mentioned him as the worst but i think he's perfectly fine in the role

The actor who played Charlie Slater was absolutely terrible....and the idea of Little Mo ( similar age) being his mother in law just added to the farce.

I would say Connor, but he's gone now, so I'll have to pick Shane Richie. He plays himself.

Syed, Jack Branning (the most wooden actor on British soap, surely?) and Phil, aka Man Of One Facial Expression: Pissed Off.

Lauren Branning played by Jacqueline Jossa
Michael Moon played by Steve John Shepherd

These two have to be the worst acting I've seen, on anything I've ever watched.

Joshua Pascoe (Ben II) is De Niro compared to Charlie Jones (Ben I)

Quite a few sadly:

Actor who plays Darren
Actor who plays Jack
Sid Owen
John Patridge (who feels it is his duty to overact in everything)

I think they are "bad" actors. EE has a lot of medicore actors - ones who can play well in some scenes but fall flat in others. The actress who plays Whitney springs to mind here, she can be good and crap depending on the scene; Marc Elliot; Shane Ritche; the actress who plays Jodie (although I feel for her given how dreadfully her character is written); the actor who plays Tamwar; the actress who plays Lauren; the actress who plays heather; the actor who plays Connor; the actor who plays Liam; Patsy Palmer; the actress who plays Roxy.

for me, jack, followed by ryan. dire! also pretty pointless, dull characters- but the delivery is awful.

alfie, besides being scripted as a walking chiche, is also generally painful to watch.

ian is often unconvincing, as is ricky at times, though i wouldn't class them as bad actors in soap-world.

syed has improved, but christian has declined, though the latter is imo down to the script.

connor doesn't qualify for ANYTHING associated with acting.

There are a few bad ones but overall it's got to be Charlie Hawkins / Darren. :yawn:

For me the worst actor is easily the bloke who plays Tamwar. His delivery is weird and sometimes he doesn't seem to know where to glance (even straight at the camera on a few occasions!).

Agree also with a previous comment about Derek Martin who played Charlie and that we were supposed to believe Mo was his MIL even though in real life he's 12 years older than her! He was terrible in the baby swap storyline which really showed his limitations.

Well they are the male totty of the show - they are not employed for their acting skills but (at least with Neil and Scott) their ability to look good with their shirts off.
