I liked her in EE. Quite looking forward to her joining HO.

She was underused in EE, hope they utilise her better on HO.

She first appeared under Lorraine Newman but it's possible that Kirkwood had a hand in her casting, as she had known for some time that she was joining before filming begun.

She was brought in by Lorraine Newman. First appearance on the 25th December 2012 & last appeared on the 9th January 2014.

Looks and sounds like another Clare.

Maybe Kirkwood is regretting killing her off.

Nice to hear she will be back on our screens again. Her treatment on EE was shocking. Why must all soap women be either total evil scheming bitches or complete doormats though? Do middle of the road people not exist?

Oh yay

I know HO isn't in the best shape at the moment, but Kierston Wareing is a damn good actress and Kirsty Branning was so underrated. Out of all the Lorraine Newman characters, DTC should've kept her and Jake on on EE. Given that several of his own characters were wasted under his watch (Aleks, Charlie, Tosh) he could've saved some space for those two.

Looking forward to this. Hopefully she can make Ben's storyline more interesting.

If her character is evil and ruthless, she could bump off Sienna for good measure

She's a very good actress so I have hope, especially if she'll be having lots of screentime with Trevor.

I dunno what to make of this, I have never really liked her as an actress. She usually plays the same tart in every role she has. This looks a little bit different and i suppose I'll be open to her, and it looks like she has got rid of that hideous rats nest of extensions on her head.

Grace Black, mark two.

But if she gives major grief to the likes of Robbie, she could become one of my HO favourites.

Who will she kidnap first?

Another immoral character in Hollyoaks. Is there anybody who is nice in the show anymore?

Does anyone else think Ashley was originally supposed to be Trudy Ryan before Danniella westbrook got axed?

To be honest I never rated her on EE but that may be more to do with the character as Newman really had no idea what to do with Kirsty. Funny that Hollyoaks now has two of Max's ex's in the show, I wonder if Anna Acton will be next.

Given that the character will be involved with Trevor (Kierston's quote) I wouldn't be surprised. A pretty decent trade off, I must say. HO drops a terrible actress for a good one.

Anna Acton seems to portray really nice characters if you go by her roles in EE (Emma Summerhayes) and Topsy and Tim (their mum Joy). Something HO lacks in. That said, I never saw her on Family Affairs or The Bill so maybe she has played other types of roles.

Her lips were ginormous when she was in EE, they seem smaller here at least.

No they were both nice roles as well, it would be good seeing Anna play a nastier character for a change.

I'd love to see a rivalry develop between Ashley and Grace, if done right it could be great!
