Babe is a vile woman, I'm so glad to hear he has axed her. As for Claudette not that fussed, his axing have been spot on so far.

I don't think he axed Claudette.

Was Babe axed?

I'm clueless because he made the wrong decision to axe the two most interesting characters?

Annette Badland is a powerhouse of an actress - in film, television and also on the stage. I'm surprised she has committed for as long as she has. Granted, there are less parts for older women out there, but Anette has had a fantastically varied careee and I guess she wants to have that back for a while.

I think it was the right decision, personally I've never understood the hype about Babe. She's an awful character and I hope she gets her comeuppance.

Agreed- but I hope see Babe again down the line.

If Babe hadn't sold all those babies and Claudette hadn't murdered her husband and rose from the dead I would have agreed with you. They just became vehicles for sensationalist plots rather than characters in their own right,

No I just hate the way some fans on social media such as twitter,facebook and this site keeps saying SOC ruined ee and how they hate him, bring back dtc. Seriously some fans has age of a 5 years old, How can you hate him when he hasn't started.

I agree with him so far axing all these crap and pointless characters, the show is completley rubbish now because of the incompetent dtc and Alex Lamb.

Yes. Blame DTC for the fact that we ended up with a show full of criminals. Even with the axings we've still got too many.

She has, even though I don't like her as Babe, she was fantastic as Brawdie in Cutting It, I'm sure she won't be short of work.

How far can they go without Babe becoming burnt out and irritating, which is what she has become.

And the least said about the ridiculous blackmail s/l the better (which seems to be the way the Carters are playing it anyway, hardly a mention from any of them)

The whole reveal about the baby stuff was just completely brushed under the carpet, one of the most pointless revelations in years it could of opened up different avenues of stories, bit of a headscratcher that one

Claudette murdered her hubby, Vincent found out.. this led to him and Patrick burying her now it all has been forgotten.
Then you have Babe, selling babies and blackmailing yet when it's revealed her family reward her by letting her stay and play cook. Ott sls and aftermath was just shit, I think SOC needs to axe a few more characters.

All of SOC's exits are right IMO.

The show really does need a kick up the arse and regeneration work to be done.

This.

People will moan at anything. Wasn't that tho when dtc was butchering the show and barely anyone was blinking an eye.

Blind fans is what I call these people.

I bet Abi trying to murder Babe will be forgotten as well just like we're meant to forget that Lauen tried to kill Max.

Masood is the only character who is leaving I'll miss, all the rest have been spot on, Babe is by far the worst character on the show, I'm glad she's going.
