Why is Sharon Rickman such a bitch to Linda?
The thread is pretty self explanatory. Why is Sharon so nasty to Linda? She storms into Linda's pub and Linda's home and flaunts how her pub will be the best boozer in Walford making Linda feel so small. This is in the pub where she was raised and she acts like she doesn't care about it at all.
She flaunts herself into Linda's and constantly goes on about how her pub will cater to classy clientele whereas Linda's customers are happy with a stale pint and a bag of crisps. Is SHE forgetting that she used to own that pub. She really thinks she is above everyone else. The truth is she has no family and uses Philth as a walking talking bank. Her only love is her brat of a kid. She tells Linda that she is a good mate while at the same time treating her like s##t. What a nasty bit of stuff she is? |

The Sharon of the 90s would never have acted like this. It's a retcon.

I don't think Sharon realised that she is being unfair to Linda.
Sharon isn't nasty but I guess you are saying this because you hate Sharon? ![]() Also Linda is no saint as she has done the same to Sharon behind her back. |

It is nothing worse than the bitchy jabs Linda makes behind Sharon's back. I would go as far as saying Linda is worse than Sharon in that regard, as at least in the case of Sharon like Janine, has the common courtesy to be a bitch to people's faces. Linda is nothing more than a bigot, hypocrite, and a cowardly bully.

I think the way they're doing it is that Sharon doesn't realise what she's saying. I don't think she's being a bitch to Linda but you have to remember she loathed the Vic after what it's done to her family. Can't exactly blame her, I think it's more realistic than knowing your dad was murdered and concealed in then same place you drink and acting like that's okay like half the soaps do.

She seems to be forgetting that it isn't actually her pub. Least the Carters own the pub instead of relying on hand outs from the Mighty Philth Mitchell. |

I saw it as Sharon being blithe and unknowingly insensitive as opposed to bitchy. She doesn't backbite Linda who does backbite Sharon.

The old Sharon was much more intelligent, savvy and self-aware than the idiot we have onscreen now who is constantly rude and unpleasant to Linda without even realising it. Her comments the other night about the Vic being downmarket were most bizarre considering it was once hers and how she adored the place as did her parents. They've turned her into the female equivalent of Ian Beale - a socially inept, egotistical, snob who constantly puts her foot in it and offends people without even realising.

They just aren't friends, the sooner they both realise the better. Shame though as the first few eps they did work well together when they were actually friendly but meh, silliness has ruined it already.

She's too self absorbed to realise how much of a bitch she's being. Linda gives as good as she gets though.

More like the other way around. Linda is a bitch to Sharon. Linda doesn't own the monopoly on the square. They don't own Walford. In the days of the dagmar/vic we had people who were friends/lovers etc in both establishments. Linda is the one who bitches behind her back ALL the time and does things to make her business fail. But Sharon makes a comment that could be unkind and she is the bitch? Ok
Sharon still wanted to be friends and hang out when she was opening the Albert. She even suggested ways to boost BOTH businesses. Recall this woman has decades of experience of running successful alcohol places. Soon as Sharon had gone yet again she was bitching behind her back. Whenever she mentions Sharon out of her presences its too bitch. I gather Johnny rightly gets fired but the police aren't called which they could be. I am sure it will be bad Sharon when Linda bitches again. Sharon is actually being kind not calling them and then she rehires Johnny. But Sharon is the bitch here right. And for those talking about old Sharon. Old Sharon would have called Linda out. |

That's what I've been wondering. Their supposed to be friends and yet Sharon's rubs it in Linda's face about her new bar. Either she's really horrible or just very tactless. But originally it wasn't in Sharon's nature to be either horrible or tactless. Personality transplant strikes again!

Yeah agreed and I made this point about Ian a while back. Some have said that people were criticising Ian because he is ambitious but that's not it at all, you can have a desire to achieve without looking down on other people and being entirely insensitive towards them. I didn't like Sharon in that scene at all and it seemed like she was boasting, she came across as very unpleasant then. |

I have really tried to give her the benefit of the doubt since her return but quite frankly she has been totally obnoxious. The worst possible thing TPTB could have done was having her getting back with Philth. Another character destroyed at the 'King's' altar.

If you read what I wrote instead of taking it out of context then you wouldn't even need to ask. Sharon isn't complaining about their between 2 bars LINDA is. Sharon isn't trying to dictate who is allowed to have a business LINDA is. She doesn't own a monopoly or the square. So how does that mean by saying that that Sharon does? How can she when she isn't the one acting like she is the only person allowed to have a business. I understand your obsession with Phil but at least read what I write before answering. As your reply makes no sense to what I actually wrote moreover its just odd.
How rude. I do not agree with you so I am odd? ![]() I am tired of people making excuses for Sharon and Philth. |

And this excuses BS wasn't even about Phil. If you want to disagree with what I wrote that's fine but then actually do that, otherwise it makes no sense and to me is odd as your quoting me when I do it. |

Sharon is a bitch and has been since she returned. And what will be the feeble excuses made for her if she is not getting her revenge on Philth? |

But I disagree as she is the only one I have seen bitching constantly behind her back and actively trying to put her out of business. But that's not what you were talking about owning the square which was out of context and not relevant. And l don't wish to get into with you after last time so I will leave it at that. |

But that wasn't the point I was making this was about the interaction with her and Linda. Anyway since your talking about something I didn't bring up I will leave my original point.

I do not want to argue over fictional characters. |

It's Letitia Dean's panto acting that gets me. I like watching the Carters in the Vic. Even though Linda is a bigot I find her highly watchable. The actress who plays Linda is brilliant.
