I praise Anna's performance in tonight's EastEnders episode. She really outdid herself compared to her past work on the show and I hope we see more from her. Hopefully this won't be the end of Summerhayes as she has real potential on the show!

I think the storyline is nice too. Max and Emma genuinely liked each other. I don't share any hatred towards any of them and I think it's nice Max has found someone around his own age.

I do however think they will go down the route of killing her off in the new year. I can see her going down the route of many other characters who are killed off, where they get very emotionally unstable before they die to generate the viewers' sadness for them.

I have a feeling she'll lose her job and then become a permanent fixture in the Branning house.

I like her and sort of warmed to the Max/Emma s/l.

She has been totally unprofessional though but would like to see become a regular but I doubt it.

I can't help feeling they'll kill her off soon.

I have to admit I wasn't a huge fan of her before but tonight's episode made me warm to her. Anna Acton was good and I truly felt sympathy for Summerhayes, which surprised me.

I can't take to her. She reminds me of Laura Beale.

She has an annoyingly posh accent that I can't warm to.

She's brilliant. She plays Emma so wonderfully that she tugs on my heartstrings the way she looks at EVERYONE with the eyes of a severely beaten puppy. Long may she continue.

I could tell by tonight's episode that they will most probably kill her off which is a shame.
But having said that there is only so much of her I can take.

Yeah I did really feel for her tonight. Props to the actress as at times it's been hard to try and root for such a weak-willed cop who inexplicably was powerless to Max's powers of making knickers drop within hours of meeting.

Possibly the worst copper ever to grace an electronically powered screen anywhere in the country. I can sleep a little safer tonight knowing she's suspended.

I disagree she should not have given Peter Beale and answer. She should have just walked away.

I've been disappointed in her but I do like her with Max, maybe I,ll warm to her if she sticks around and has a proper relationship with Max instead of having two separate lifes.

Her acting style is so hammy I can't deal with it.

Stacey's left the car lot so there's a job going there with Max 😊

I get the feeling she is going to commit suicide. Which will make the whole Lucy story even more tragic and will make Max feel even more guilty.
