Carly isn't doing a bad job of that - has she been nice at all?

To counterbalance lovely characters such as Tracy you mean? It might be a good idea.

I'd prefer a likeable bitch, like Janine Butcher.

Was she really better than Chariity? I've tried to find videos of her on youtube but there are very few emmerdale videos from 90's.

I think from next week the wheels of Emma Barton are going to begin to turn. Everyone better watch out. There is no way that her, James and the boys are going to exist as a lovely family unit.

LOL I think the OP means Bitch as in the female villain like Alexis Carrington. Also do you really think Belle is a bitch? She always seems pretty nice to me...except for when ghost Gemma is in her head.

Belle has been vastly toned down since her days of stealing from the Post Office and being expelled from school. Some of us don't forget....

Aww come on she was a kid then and she was pretty nice and it wasn't like she was going around acting like Amy or Faye on Corrie.

They will never be able to replace Kim Tate as Queen bitch, but women like Charity do a good enough impersonation.

That said, Sadie King was brought in as a similar character to Kim, the rich bitch whose one liners could make a peasant curl up and die, but she had a short shelf life partly due to the fact that her performance was slightly panto. Then we had Natasha Wylde who had potential but was weighed down with her family drama, and therefore unable to give us the Queen Bee powerhouse bitch we were hoping for.

I'd say one to look forward to is the other White sister. I imagine she will be presented as rich, ballsy, businesslike yet with a heart under her tough exterior. Surely she'll be the opposite of the weakling, crying mess that is Chrissie?!

I know that the class system here in the U.K. is breaking down, but I do quite enjoy the owners of Home Farm being lord and ladylike, and having the villagers being slightly in awe of them, it sets them apart and gives them real presence. At the moment, the Whites are just seen as that family with a bit of cash who could afford the big house IMO.

Kim Tate please. Charity and her panto acting can be pulled apart by horses in prison.
