- Both introduced as the wayward 16 year old cousin of well-established, female dominating soap families (Slaters and McQueens)
- Both tried it on with their cousins much older ex upon their arrival (Stacey - Gary, Theresa - Tony).
- Both killed a man
- Both were pregnant when they murdered
- Both killed the father of their babies (well, Stacey was convinced Archie was Lily's father at the point when she killed him).
- Both eventually confessed to their crimes roughly about 4 years later.
- Both however get released again just a matter of months after confessing.

Am I the only one who has noticed this?

I agree. also we shouldn't be surprised at the similarities given kirkwood seems to carbon copy alot of eastenders stories.

I agree and Stacey is a lot more likeable than Theresa.

Whilst I wasn't overly keen on EE becoming the Stacey Slater show for a time, her behaving really horribly and being lauded rather than condemned for it and the way they've got her out of Prison, Stacey is basically more likeable than Theresa, has finally accepted some responsibility for actions and expressed regret over them (even if it is Bradley being falsely blamed rather than the killing herself) and did have some mitigating factors due to the rape and having been so recently sectioned. Theresa is just urgh. And of course Turner is a better actress.

The characters do bear a lot of similiraties though.

Whilst I appreciate the similarities - one of those characters is a soap legend, the other is not.

Comparing Stacey to Theresa is like comparing Pat to Nana McQueen. Ridiculous.

There is some similarities I guess but IMO they completely different personality wise IMO Stacey is a lot more likeable and sympathetic than Theresa, because the person Stacey killed was a man who raped her whereas as Theresa killed a man because he rejected her
