Hello all,

I've decided to create this to record our findings when we actually do see a glimpse of the rarity that is now Esther.

Happy Watching!

she has got to be the most underused character ATM.

Even Leah and Lucas have probably made more appearences than she has. I can't believe how underused she is, total waste of a character.

Wate of an actress too; she's shown she has potential. I know she was originally meant to die but enough time has passed now so there's no excuses for her not having any storyline.

She'll probably get used more once attention focuses back on the Osbournes with the Darren sl. I suppose at the moment they could only really have her nipping into the shop or going out for a coffee or something as she isn't really tied in with any other major sl.

I really like Esther. I wish they give her some purpose though and some happiness. What's about a job as a designer or similar ?

Yet we get subjected to Sinead, Grace, Trevor and half of the Roscoes for months on end, give Esther a storyline she proven she capable!

Exactly!

I'm sure in about a months time we'll see her having a two word conversation with Jack or Frankie...

She did have a lot of focus for a while, but I do agree that it's a shame she's not around much at the moment and hasn't got a storyline, she's a great actress.

Oh yes, I forgot all about her! And she's one of my favourite characters. Where is she?!

Great idea for a thread

She really has been wasted, nowhere to be seen lately, the actress' bio even remarks on the fact! Yet we keep getting stuff from the likes of Ziggy...

And I hope her next storyline isn't a new romance. Awfully boring, did not like her storylines with Tilly at all, and they just went around in circles. I'd like it to be somewhat career-oriented as she is very in to fashion design and I enjoyed her mini storyline of being an intern in that fashion magazine office.

I would have liked to see an aftermath to her stuff with Jade, IRL that would have been very disturbing and we could have seen her going to counselling or something.

I have a feeling she won't do well in her exams

Oh i'm sure she's have a major storyline again... Only to be killed off probably.

On the other hand, i doubt she's getting paid per scene so good on her, money for nothing.

Haha. Exactly.

Jazz has it better than most realize. She's still making all the money of a regular cast member, while her character stays preserved since its not being assassinated in BK's hands. He'd have permanently blinded Esther by now, and given her clitoral cancer and killed her parents, where ever they are.

So I hope Jazz is enjoying life, going on vacations and cackling to herself.

Why do you not think that is the case? I thought that was one of the reasons that HO ignored cast members for weeks on end, so they don't have to pay them and can cut production costs.

No, she'd be under contract.

That means either something like she'd be guaranteed a certain number of episodes a year, or that she makes a fixed salary regardless of how much they use her.

Well that depends if she's money-oriented or career-focused. If she's focused on her future career, like a lot of young actors are, she's not going to want to go looking for roles in a few years' time with little to show for her past few years. She'd want a wide portfolio and if she's not getting the experience at Hollyoaks she might hop off.

problem is Hollyoaks cast is too full and there is no rotation between the characters when was the last time we had a few weeks away from the Roscoes?

I really think Esther, George, Phoebe who are the most underused in the cast will probably be killed off later in the year.

I really wish someone on here would do a hollyoaks cast count i would but i think we are too late into the year..

Definitely underused, she has shown what a brilliant actress she is in the bullying storyline

Esther got Hollyoaks their highest ratings in the last few years. You would think they would capitalise on the character.

She was spotted at the awards guess that's something , seriously though HO needs to pull their finger out and start giving other characters a fair chance, its a ensemble piece not the Sinead, Grace & Roscoe show, sick of all of them at the moment, could careless about Sinead revenge or crap wannabe gangster Grace!

Esther & Phoebe are some of the best of the younger crowd and they get f**k all to do for most of the year, I'd rather have Mercedes back in centre then this shite.

Seems you see more of 'Esther' (well Jazz Franks) on Instagram these days than on HO which is a real shame.

Here is hoping, I hope they cast the actress from River City who played Alice, I heard she audition for the new McQueen's, she did a really well received lesbian storyline, potential new girlfriend.
