Anyone else not feeling this character?
I find her "acting" incredibly hammy and stilted...particularly those painful scenes with the husband with her gormless facial expressions
I expected much more from her....I give her six months at this rate before she joins Tiny, Mandy, Jenna and Flash in the back of a taxi

You mean Grinny Woman! Never knew she was in Emmerdale or Dancing On Ice. Never seen her until she grinned her way on to Corrie!

< this smilie should be renamed The Andrea.

Not only is the acting suspect, she's not very likeable, is she? The way she followed Steve around for ages and then only started seeing Lloyd to get a reaction out of Steve. All while having a husband stashed away!

Andrea isn't much of a character. Inane grin and shoving Jenna out of the way shows bad acting and bad scriptwriting. The writing for the reunion with her hubby was pititful. Corrie need better actors than her to do something with their dire SLs and scripts.

Sh!te acting, sh!te SLs and sh!te scripts = SH!TE!!!

Most of Corrie's cast do wonders with what they are given but she ain't one of 'um.

Totally agree. She's so hammy, precocious and stage schooly. I can't bear her

She is "OK".... nothing to write home about.
I am hoping that when news that she has a husband breaks that the wooden-ness may improve.

I know what you mean, she was alright to start with as it was nice to see a character with a smile but the amount of grinning she does now is ridiculous, but she's just gotten worse as the months have gone on.

I also don't understand what she sees in a two bit taxi driver, with major health problems and an annoying daughter.

Her constant grinning is very annoying. Can anyone remember a shot of her not grinning?

I also think a major problem is that she has zero chemistry with Lloyd. I thought she bounced off Steve better but the writers killed their "affair" off too soon.

Moon Eyes disgusted me last night.
Her thoughtful husband had spent hours cooking her a lovely meal for her to grin at, and she just didn't want to know.

He'd laid the table beautifully, had a nice bottle of wine chilling in an ice bucket, and had even gotten all his cooking times spot on so it was ready to serve as soon as her grin came through the door, closely followed by her moon eyes, and then finally the rest of her.

But what did she do?
Rubbed her grinning neck, said she was tired, and shot off upstairs for an 'early night.'
Early night be buggered!
It was only 3:30 in the afternoon, fricking Deal or No Deal hadn't even come on yet.

So we've learned that Moon Eyes has a nice house with nice furnishings, a loving, caring, attentive husband, no visible money worries, an adult daughter - and she wants to trade that 'unhappy' existence in to live with a whinging, wheezing, sweating, pot less, prat of a bloke who stinks of BO (probably) in a hovel of a flat above a cab office.

Just as you do like.

Pathetic Lloyd has had some equally pathetic girlfriends in his time, but old Moon Eyes takes the bloody biscuit.
Really hope her hubby breaks both of his legs, and his back.

She`s obviously lied a lot in her life...have ya seen the size of that hooter? It makes Laurel from Emmerdales nose look snubby in comparison.
Maybe that`s why she left Emmerdale - not enough room for 2 huge schnozes

True Wav, she was a bloody grinning menace in Emmy too.

I have to agree Unc. I know you can't help who you fall in love with and all that, but I think you can at least give it the old college try.

It's not 10 minutes since Moon Eyes (lolz) was ready to declare undying love for Stevie Mac and only turned her affections and attentions to The Most Boring Man In The History Of The Universe, after Steve told her to do one.

It's whatsisname I feel sorry for.
