To add to my above post Chrissie now knows that Andy arranged to have his brother shot, giving her even more reason to want revenge, because she knows what he is capable of, and of course she wants to protect her son too.

Ditto from me.
I don't think any of them are 'likeable' per se but that doesn't bother me at all, I think they're a great group of characters and they've really become more interesting in the last few months. I like that they're an absolute car crash and generally pretty horrid people.
I can't see past Lachlan's sexual assault though. It's never been dealt with, he's shown no remorse and I think they wrote him into a corner with it. There's been no attempt to reform him, he's just been on the sidelines being spoilt and creepy. I think they should have just decided to make him completely dark and messed up and run with that. I'm not keen on this "woe is Lachlan" stuff.

They're all horrible but they're the best bit of the show at the moment.
Tom Atkinson is really good at playing Lachlan as a disturbed and basically lonely misfit, so that helps.

Agreed. Tom Atkinson is very talented. He's definitely elevated the storyline. I wish they didn't make him into a sex pervert since it's hard for me to see past that, but as an actor he is really carrying this storyline.

But Chrissie forgave him for that, remember she went over to Diane's to tell Andy that she realized Ross was the mastermind behind it. Her reason for vengeance is purely based on Andy sleeping with Bernice while they were on a break. The woman is unhinged and needs just as much therapy as Lachlan.

At the end of the day, ultimately she's just trying to protect her son, and Andy happened to cheat at the wrong time. Also, the fact that Robert cheated on her too and now It's happened to her again coupled with the fact that Andy lied to her when he had the opportunity to tell the truth are all contributing factors. I actually think when he lied to her, that was the final straw.

Chrissie did not need to frame Andy for the shooting to save Lachlan, her original intent was to make it look like a robbery, she only decided to frame Andy when she found out he slept with Bernice. I get that Robert cheated on her too but she needs to take ownership of the fact that she makes bad choices when it comes to men. Lawrence tried to warn her about Robert but she didn't listen, she was moving way to fast with Andy and then look at Lachlan's dad he was no good.
Bring back the Wyldes I say! especially NippleNathan 
I love Lawrence, he has had really bad luck being burdoned with the rapist and the whingy little girl, I hope he can move on , dump them both and live happily with Ronnie

Yeah, he's a good little actor; plays the part well. He's quite expressive
The Whites are still one of my favorite families in ED. They're just so messed up. I do like Lachlan more and I still like Lawrence although he is an absolute a****** at the moment and Chrissie is one of my favorite females
They do need taming down a bit and Lucky needs therapy. I wish they'd become a bit stable.
Also WHO IS Chrissie's father?!?

Well he failed spectacularly when he tried to do it himself.
