I haven't watched in years but she was still at school when she arrived, maybe 15/16.

Pretty sure she was in the same school year as John Poauls and i remember he started his final year in Sept 2006, straight after the Dog in the Pond fire.
So, she must have been born sept 88- Aug 89. She's several years younger than Darren who was in the same year as Mandy and Cindy - i think they were about 15 when it started in 95. |

And yes, she was definately only about 14 or 15 when she arrived. Believe it or not she was a real troublem maker / wild child type constantly pretending to be older than she was and leading Hannah and Sarah into trouble.
She grew up a lot when her elder sister, Becca was firstly imprisoned for having sex with one of her pupils and then was killed in Prison. |

They're all around 10 years younger than him. Wonder why they took that route. Had he worked his way through all the women his own age?! |

I remember when she was 17 she took up with that weird looking bloke of 29 (can't remember his name) and we had the hilarious scene of her sister Becca trying to tell Nancy this bloke was far too old for her ... when she was living with one of her pupils who was nearly 10 years younger than her! lol

We've been told a lot that JP is 27 with the Sally/Myra story and he was in Nancy's school year so that puts her at 27 as well. It's actually been good that neither have suffered a age change to their characters like some. Plus JP's birthday has always been Jan 3rd as well another thing that hasn't changed. They're not good at keeping things like ages, birthdays in HO but its good that these 2 have aged on screen (despite JP's 5 years off screen, he's remained the right age)

I didn't realize Darren was that old, I thought him and Nancy were about the same age which I was thinking about 32 or 33.
Actually, thinking about it, I'm pretty sure that Holly was conceived at cindy's 16th birthday party and she was born Xmas Day 1997 so Cindy must have been born Sprint 1981. |

Ho (as mentioned by somebody else) does have form for changing people's ages but when it started one of the main family's were the Bensons with Kurt, Lucy and Ollie. Kurt was college/university age and the same year as Tony and Ruth, Darrens sister. Lucy turned 18 a fee months in, in 1986 as a major character died of a drugs overdose at the party. And Ollie was still at school in the same year as Mandy, Darren, Cindy, Stan (who was Holly's father). Mandy certainly turned 18 in 98/99 as it was around the time of her Dad's rape trial and she had to give evidence as an adult. So that lot must have been born about 80/81 so are now 35ish.

I jokingly said a few years ago that they gave Darren a taste for his step-brother Craig's school friends! lol Seeing as he first got Hannah and then he got Nancy. Had Sarah lived he'd probably have got her next!
They're all around 10 years younger than him. Wonder why they took that route. Had he worked his way through all the women his own age?! I think they just had to put him with younger characters as the ones his own age had left the show. Also, didn't Nancy seem to finish her degree and qualify as a teacher ridiculously quickly? Her having that job, along with raising Charlie orobaly made her seem older and he's always been immature so.... They did the same thing with Tony, his girlfriends got younger and younger, getting with his friends little sisters who were several years younger than him (both Mandy and Cindy) plus several of the freshers back when they still heavily featured HCC. It's only really Diane that they've got him back with somebody the same age as him. |

I thought she was older than that, I was thinking Cindy was about 40. Now what about Mercedes, I was thinking she was between 30-35 and then she made that joke about Scott being 30 so I'm guessing she's in her 20's as well.
![]() We did have pretty definitive ages for the McQueen at one stage because they showed flashback footage of them as kids during the Niall storyline but i can't remember how old they were. I think she's early to mid 30s. Niall was the eldest, then Jacqui, then Mercedes. Then a bit of a gap til Tina, then Carmel, JP and finally Michaela. So there has got to be room for 2 kids between Mercy and JP and JP is 27. |

Yes, he pretty much had, and every one in between! He went out with Mandy for some time and of course Cindy. Lengthy relationship with Jess, fling with Hannah's Mum. I'm sure I've missed loads of people out as well - was there a thing with Beth Morgan or have i dreamt that? I think he might have been with Laura as well, r Izzy or Geri.
