So with ES leaving, I just thought if you became EP, who would be your top 5 to axe?

Mine:
Maddie!!!!
Jono
Doug (he's ruined and there's no way back, unless there's such thing as a straight hug )
Ally
Will (to me, he's worse than Liberty :sleep

Anyone under the age of 20. I don't care which ones. All of them if possible.

Maddie and Jono would be my first two. I know the Teens are hated, but I think killing of Jono, and having them turn against Maddie could be the making of them. Callum, Esther, Phoebe, Lacey and Ruby are already fairly strong characters. But Jono has strong ties to Bart and Neil who are both played by good actors, who desperately need some direction. It'd also hopefully, give Steph Davis and Lucy Dixion some material, and give their characters some direction. All of the other actors except Jono and Maddie are more than capable, but just haven't been given the chance to shine really and wasted on pathetic stories mainly based around Maddie's popularity.

Ally Gorman, he will most likely go anyway, but I'd say it's been quite obvious his story has had to shift direction and the rewrites have totally messed up the plan for his character and he is completely inconsistent, this is most likely due to Amy's strangely sudden departure. Plus the actor was shit in Neighbours, and hasn't improved at all.

Will Savage. I actually quite like the rest of the Savages and I think he ruins both units he is involved in, the students and the savages. Dodger has worked well, I'd suggest. I'm not convinced on the chemistry with Texas but he does work with others well, mostly Darren, Amy and Denis who he's had very good chemistry with on screen. I'd actually like to see a Dodger/Carmel pairing. Dirk and Liberty work well as background characters and Denis needs a partner in crime and he could become a new Lee/Bombhead, or Max/Ob type character.

I'm going to be a bit cheeky with my last option and combine Jen and Liam Gilmore. As honestly what is the point in either character? Neither have a personality and both have been used in plot driven drivel. This story with Tilly has been utterly pointless and done nothing to advance any character. I hope Sinead finds out and gives them all a dressing down for their behaviour. I know Sinead can be a bit of a bitch, but she usually knows right from wrong and stands up for what she believes in. I can see her informing the school on Jen and giving Tilly a big dressing down. Which is what both characters need.

There are others I'd like to go. I'd seriously look at Texas and Leanne's place in the show now, Liberty and Dirk could also go with little fuss, Tilly is a bit of a mess and would need a lot of work, Ash is struggling with the heavier material and Callum and Lacey are much more interesting characters, and until later I would've said Theresa but I really started to enjoy Joel and Theresa then. Oh and I seriously consider what they are doing with Ste. I'm sick of him being involved in everything, he's not a character with any personality. Doug can be saved in my eyes as PJ is such a strong actor, but him and Ste aren't working and Ste is sucking the personality out of him like he does everyone else. The only person I've ever seen Ste have chemistry with is Amy, oh and Cheryl. The rest of his scenes make me zzzzzz. But I know that's an unpopular view.

Nancy - popular character, I think, but she annoys the hell out of me.
Doug - Too many reasons. Used to like him, but seriously creepy and unlikeable right now.

Maddie
Neil
Jono

(If Amy had still been around, one of those teen places would have gone to her )

Out of all the teens

Bart, Callum, Esther, George, Jono, Lacey, Maddie, Neil, Phoebe, Ruby, Sinead and Tilly

I'd keep........

JONO

Ruby

Esther

Maddie

Callum

with George and Sinead being the only other ones that still interest me.

I don't like Maddie but she causes so much utter dislike on here that she's a character that could maybe developed for better in the right hands.

And again I'll be the lone voice in my support of Martin 'Jono' Johnson!!

Cheating with six. Sinead is so many shades of horrific. I bloody loathe her. I wouldn't actually axe many others though... maybe just Liam, Ruby and Ally.

Just five?

Maddie at the top of the list, going out finally getting her comeuppance. Being expelled and forced to move away with everyone turned against her. Jono also needs to go, let's have him go on to harder drugs and die, um, immediately. Bart can go to prison.

The student group is stronger without Will and so would the Savages be. I'd like the new producer to write a bit more for Dirk too, there's a good actor in there and he gets nothing to do. And last but not least, the sooner Ally gets gone the better. I just don't care about his secret.

Exactly the same.

Maddie, Jono, Bart, Will and Ally.

Mind you, there's a bit more to turning a show round than just axeing a few people. Hopefully it means seeing the potential in the good characters as well, and bringing them forward.

Hope we see more of Barney, Annalise, Rob, Martha/Diane. And maybe bring back Wardy.

You're right, choosing just five is far too restrictive.

It was very hard to leave out the likes of Will, Liberty, Ally, Dodger, Texas, Sinead and Frankie from my list. But I think my original choices still stand.

Really difficult to restrict it to five, but Carmel, Theresa, Leanne, Maddie, and George.
