This may already have been discussed on one of the main ED threads, but I was wondering if others are speculating that Tracey and Vanessa are going to turn out to be half-sisters?

We know that their dad(s) is/are in prison. Vanessa mentioned that fact again a couple of weeks ago. They've been having some conflict recently, and have a food fight next week in the very same week Tracey's dad is unexpectedly being released from prison. Will Frank turn out to be both Tracey and Vanessa's father?

It seems pretty plausible, doesn't it? Vanessa finds Tracey to be an irresponsible money-grabbing moron. It would just be her luck to turn out to be related to her!

When they were interviewed at the BSA's earlier in the year, they said that there would be a storyline about August time that would link the two characters together, so I think that yes, they will turn out to be half sisters.

I would assume this is where the story is headed.
It was theorised a while back when it was established that both their Dad's were in prison. Back when Bob was doing some time.

I can't stand Tracy so it's a shame she's going to be on screen so much.

I thought that off the top of my head! That scene last week seemed to be a sly hint.

Yes but we thought Jim Fenner was going to turn out to be Vanessa's dad cos of his link to bob and Harriet but Traceys dad has been cast as someone else.

It also looked like bob and Harriet were gonna have an affair but I guess not!

I would rather they had seperate dads but connected somehow. Its way too contrived that they would turn out to be sisters after they lived together

I agree-sometimes the coincidences are so unbelievable. I know we read of such things happening in real life, but the chances are so slim. It also happened when Debbie Dingle was being fostered by Paddy and Emily, and Cain recognised Charity from a photograph Debbie had. Of all the villages...

It's going to be ridiculously contrived. The sort of thing to be expected in Hollyoaks.

I was thinking James Gaddas (played Ged) but might be getting my storylines mixed up!

Yes, James Gaddas, who played Bob's cellmate/tormentor (who I also thought would have been Vanessa's dad, but turned out not to be) played Neil the prison wing governer in Bad Girls.

He lusted after Jim Fenner

I don't think so, its a soapy twist and it will give two characters family ties who have no real connection to the show.

This. So much overload on her stories coming up. I don't mind too much when Tracy is just hanging around as a supporting character, but Im already bored of her being a main feature and dreading it being even moreso once her father gets involved and Vanessa if this is true.

Tracey has nil acting ability, she just stands around with her mouth open. I hope Vanessa is not paired with her as Vanessa can act and she would have to carry the scenes.

Tracy isn't as bad as she was when she first showed up.

Since bringing her back they have toned her down. I agree that she works best as a supporting character though. I don't see her as a main player.

Bit coincidental for Tracy and Vanessa to end up in the same village isn't it? But I suppose it is a soap.
