She's excelellent and not one dimensional with her acting either, as we learned last night when she was clearly terrified when the police came. I love Bethany, she's hilarious and has some great one liners

She's OK, although the scene at the end of last night's 1st episode ("it's in my pocket!!!") had some cringeworthy expressions from her.
I like the character but am tiring of her already. Maybe if you have/have had a child like her, you might find her more endearing but she's a total knob in my eyes (has she ever been nice to anyone since her return? Flirting with Callum doesn't count), and that's only entertaining for so long. I don't trust the writers not to run her into the ground like they have done with Tracy. |

I like her, but I wish they would get rid of Sarah and Callum.

The problem is many people who dislike a character immediately say "They're a bad actor" when in fact a character is supposed to be annoying and the actor is playing it perfectly.
Lucy Fallon is very enjoyable to watch and I like Bethany. |

She's fine as an actress but the writing is dreadful and they've made her very dislike able. There seems to be no redeeming features at all

Tim and Sally are fantastic together, really hope they don't put her back with dull Kevin.

Same here and this is a spot on description. Bethany has only one expression and is completely one dimensional, I don't see how anyone can say she's a good actress. Dreadful, all of them, and I couldn't care less how the story plays out as none of them are likeable characters, or talented actors.

I like her.
Her one-liners crack me up and she reminds me of Tracyluv without the evil side. The actress is doing well. |

I'd really like to see her spend some more time away from Sarah/Callum, I think her and David could have some funny scenes, maybe if she worked in the hairdressers. It's a rubbish story but I find her quite entertaining.

No, the big problem I have is with Sarah's attitude in general!! She left in 2007 an immature, childlike creature herself but then we are led to believe she held down a responsible job whilst bringing up Bethany almost single handedly...fine, a real wake up call, guaranteed to make her toughen up, grow up & emerge as a capable & confident young woman by the time she needs to return to Weatherfield 7 years later!! Erm, ok so what went wrong???

In my opinion the jury is still out on Bethany, l am a bit tired of her now in this storyline, always the same bad behaviour, bratty cheeky disrespectful lying, enough already. Would actually like to see how she would interact with other members of the cast, maybe Roy Rita, would like to see another side of her character,maybe a softer side that shows she cares about someone other than herself.

From what I've seen of her acting - it's atrocious.

I don't mind Bethany. She's quirky and at her age it's no surprise she thinks she's a know-it-all.
The whole Callum storyline is dragging her down, and she needs proper storylines. Not tearaway teen ones. |
