It's a shame for the actress who seems very nice but the character won't be missed. Although I did like the scene when Jenna had a go at Andrea in the hospital.

Knew it was coming... should have been axed alongside her mother and the tortoise.
Gone in a Flash!

I liked Jenna and felt her character could have been devolved more strongly and became a permanent resident.

I loved the way she was around Roy after Hayley's death,

Krissi is a good actor and hopefully we'll see her in many other things.

It's hardly a major surprise but I do feel for the actress. She was put into an implausible relationship
with the vile Sawfie, sacrificed her career for her and they then just split. From this point onwards it was blatantly obvious that the writers had no direction in mind for Jenna and just made her an extra in Roy's Rolls. Lately, the character was becoming a little more interesting with her dislike of Andrea but the writing was sadly on the wall. I wish Krissi all the best.

I'll be holding a candlelight vigil tonight outside the flat she lives with that Craig Charles bloke off of Robot Wars. If anyone wants to join me you are more than welcome.

I thought we could start off with sharing a few favourite memories of Jenna, then maybe singing a few songs in her memory.

See you there.

John Michie wasn't axed he chose to leave
Hmmm.

However, while speaking to the Radio Times, John Michie, who of course plays Karl, has revealed that though he thinks his character will “get his comeuppance” for his evil deeds – which include setting Sunita up to look like the guilty party – he hopes he won’t have to leave the show when that happens.

2014 and we are seeing some fm's say that some actors are only hired because they're black and now it's only fired because they're black. It could be almost be fuuny.

I agree. They didn't know what to do with her character, but she could have been interesting. For one thing, would she not have been angry with both Sawfie and Kevin - he went barging in and lost her her job.

She seemed far too intelligent and mature ever to have got together with silly screechy Sawfie.

I'll be there fella, I was thinking we could all hold hands and say things like ... "It isn't fair" ... and all that.

I feel a bit tearful now if I'm honest, but I promise I'll try and stay strong.

Should I make cupcakes?

Thanks buddy. If it's not too much trouble, could you ice the cupcakes with each of Jenna's good personality traits? Just to remember her proper like. One could say 'makes a good bacon barm', and erm... the others can have different things on.

I can see Maddeh taking her job in the Caff when she leaves
Surely 'Elf & Safety would close the cafe down if the unwholesome, smelly Muddie even went in there to steal a bun.

Not surprised in the slightest, the character had nowhere else to go.

Oh well, at least she can leave with her head held high, safe in the knowledge she helped create one of soap's most iconic, endearing and forbidden love stories - you know last year like, during that week her and Sofa were madly in love and nothing whatsoever could ever come between them.

If that wasn't 'the real thing' then I'll be jiggered as to what is.
Sofa for one will never forget old whatshername.
LMFAO

Oh, I was planning on putting little iced tortoises on top of them mate, as a mark of respect to Flash who got murdered by Steve.

I'm no Eddie Windass like, but I've seen people do fancy icing on the telly and it looks really easy.
I've already made the squeezy thing out of an old Spar carrier bag.

Its a real shame as she is not a bad actress. She and "Mand" were brought in - kept on as permanent characters as usual but they didnt know what to do with them. She could have been receptionist at the gym, she is young and fit and has medical knowledge but they prefer to employ 90 year old batty Gail who likes to snoop and gossip about people like she did in the GPs surgery. Yeah you know it makes sense.
What and rob us of those classic scenes between Gail, Katie, Sharif and Dev? Rolleyes

Jenna could have been receptionist at the gym. She could have worked there as physiotherapist. Corrie are too dim and too lazy to expand and explore the possibilites of some characters. I could see her working well with Kal, Dev and Sharif.

Now she's no longer with Foghorn Leghorn Webster, I suppose Corrie just see her as a redundant lesbian and nothing more.

You cheeky mare!
I'll tan your bloody backside for you one of these days, you mark my words.

Thanks to my three days of heavy-weekend--drinking-shakes, they'll probably all look like Flash is enjoying himself at a disco.

Just been on Krissi Bohn's Twitter page, she's currently on holiday in Thailand. What a horrible time
to find out you've been given the axe.

This annoys me also, the "comedy" acting will soon be upon us, lets hope Kal's dad doesn't fall for her, we don't want another Gail affair just yet, oh wait a minute, her new man has already been lined up, I forgot
