Jacqui is by far my favourite female character in Hollyoaks and Claire is an amazing actress. I love how she manages to make Jacqui tough as nails but at the same time one of the most vunerable, honest characters on the show.

Claire Cooper is a truly amazing actress, she seems so natural and not forced. She can do drama and comedy so well. And she always looks fantastic. Love her.

Best Actress in Hollyoaks by far! I was really moved by the rape storyline - Claire should be very very proud of herself.

It's great to see Claire Cooper being appreciated on here! I think she's wonderful. I've loved Jacqui from the moment she walked on set, her tough relationship with Myra, the way she teases Carmel, being a great sister to John Paul, protecting Theresa, going to war with Bart,and her really believable relationships with Tony, Des, and now Rhys.

So glad they gave her this rape storyline to challenge people's assumptions about Jacqui, and to let Claire shine. I know she was always an outsider to win a BSA, but I was still so chuffed to see her up there. Long may she reign at HO.

Claire Cooper may well singlehandedly carve something decent our of this horrid Mercedes/Riley/Carl storyline. It was one of PM's biggest missteps and something that should have been brought to an end long ago, but has been given a whole new lease of life with Jacqui involved.

Claire's always brilliant but 2011 has been a real return to form for Jacqui and I love seeing her at the forefront of the show.

Claire yet again stole the show tonight, loved her telling Mercedes what she could do with her money lol

Thought Emmett was brilliant tonight as well, as always. I had tears in my eyes when Cheryl and him were talking at the table.

Claire is a brilliant actress, and Jacqui is such a strong character

Nice to see her getting nominated for various awards and that her work is being recognized

Same here, on paper it sounded like their relationship wouldn't work but it really does. I always thought that Jacqui and Tony were meant to be, but clearly I was wrong.

LOVED seeing Jacqui back tonight. It was really sad hearing her talk about her miscarriage.

woo hey! im glad theres a coops appreciation thread, i run the kieron one myself.

claire cooper has been consistently involved in active storylines, whether they be funny, sad, heartbreaking because shes such a diverse actress.

theyve tried to portray her as such a cold person, but rhys has definitely melted the ice around her heart, i really wanted to hurt him for sleeping with cheryl, and i wasnt too impressed with cheryl either and i love cheryl.

she was brilliant through the rape trial, exceptional but the thing is im going to be a hypocrite because i was team rhys all the way through, but thats because the nature of jacqui and gilly was so well acted it was too hard to believe jacqui would lie nor gilly lay his hands on a woman x

Yet again Jacqui saved the E4 episode today. I know the episodes cannot be brilliant everyday, but I hate the filler ones.

Chuffed that Claire has been put forward for an NTA. She should win, thoroughly deserves to. She has been flawless throughout the rape storyline
