Does anyone else agree that Emmerdale's Donna is underused? She gets a fair bit of screentime, but it's usually just working in the cafe or bickering with her mum. I think she needs a proper storyline of her own.

Yeah, I think she's underused. Bu then I would think that, wouldn't I?

I just hope they don't turn her into a clone of her mother...

I'd like her to really make something of herself, so her family can see how great she really is.

It always seems to me that Donna is usually pushed aside to make way for the other family members. She always seems to get the short straw when it comes to getting some attention. The spotlight is never on Donna; it's always Kelly this and Dawn that.

I think Donna needs to prove that she's worth just as much as her family.

When she was at school, all she ever talked about was joining the army. I suppose she would have had to leave Emmerdale to do that though!

You would have thought she'd have seen Chas as a role model and tried it wouldn't you

I think she's training to be a community police officer at the moment.

I think she was turned down because of the hit-and-run incident.

I can't really remember.

However, does anyone remember around 2001 Donna's voice sounded totally different for a while!!!!!? I watched a video of the hit and run scenes again recently and her voice is so much deeper... it's hard to believe it's the same person actually!

No. I think she gets her fair share of storylines.

I did like her standing up to Bob tonight. I mean, no-one else did it, did they?
