So she just took Charlie's word for it and didnt check him out !
No wonder they haven't caught Lucy's killer

Her the actresses acting along with Pauline Lynn and June brown have been the 3 weak links this week.

He threatened to expose her affair with Max.

Emma is a disgrace. I liked the actress when she was first introduced, but I've just realised this week how much I dislike her character and storyline so far..

Who would Believe Him after he's impersonated a CID officer, he should always be able to give his number or his bosses name, She should have pressed him for it and consider his threat When its confirmed, but why would an officer need to blackmail in the first place, just confirm ID and move on no big deal!

It really annoyed me that did.

He intimidated her

LovelyEmma is just so lovely but sadly she is now a slave of the cruel situation that is being Max Branning's latest squeeze which is never the easiest tasks to undertake.

Emma display's real love and loyalty. A women who just wants to be loved and accepted in this cruel, cruel world of ours that constantly bends her over and inflict as much pain and suffering on her as it can give. It's causes a mistake or two to creep into her.

But deep down Emma's amazing loviness will prevail and she will take scorn on those that have rejected her and used her for their own evil and selfish means and then she will find her one true love in a man called JR who shall show the true meaning of living a free life. I have hope.

A harlot and strumpet.

i agree all she does is has sex on her mind rather than paying attention to her work

I like her but yes she's a rubbish copper! Give it 6 months and she'll be selling handcuffs on the market!

Not true, she's thoroughly investigating Max's 'manhood.'

I can't get over the fact she's sleeping with max? Absolutely pathetic, worst storyline of he year?

What gets me about DC Emma ShaggerHayes is that she is sleeping with a suspect in a murder investigation

I want her removed from the Beale case once her fling is out in the open

There is no way she could have become a detective or even a police officer in the real world.

Weak, thick, morally dubious and totally useless.

A typical Eastenders professional in other words.

Bring back Marsden!

I'm so glad they've brought in DCI Twentyfags to take over - a proper copper that gets the job done, and a sensational lover to boot. Harlot Summerhayes is a lazy, ineffectual, selfish excuse for a police officer. If I was Twentyfags I'd have her warrant card before she can sleep with any more key witnesses.

Summerhayes was okay when she first started out but WHY did they make her have an affair with Max? Totally pointless and unrealistic, imo. I love EE's direction at the moment but this storyline is definitely one of the weak links.

And Alison Newman is terrific, DI Keeble is my favourite soap copper
