I really liked Ruby/Juley, but I'm sad to say that they could have just been a plot device. If they were only set up for a couple of episodes to fuse another agrument between Ruby and Johnny, I'm pissed off. There was something there, IMO.

It's really only a rebellion storyline for Ruby....now that she knows Johnny hates him so much, it is only going to drive her on to be with him, just to spite her father. She is too immature for a proper relationship.

Also....this may be a controversial opinion but...I am the only one who thinks the girl who plays Ruby is a really, really bad actress?? She was ok-ish in the beginning, in all those emotional scenes with Johnny, but she is terrible at anything else. She is just really expressionless or something. She delivers all her lines in excatly the same, flat, whispery, timid way. I thought that was quite appropriate for those scenes where Johnny's past was revealed, but for other stuff it is quite awful, cringe-worthy even. She also does that crazy-eye swiveling thing when she is doing an emotional scene that I suppose she thinks is a good acting technique but just comes off as really comical.

It's a shame she is so wooden, as the character has great potential, I feel.

Ah, well. Hopefully she will leave when Johnny does, and not a moment too soon either. <_<

As for this mass exodus of the old characters and mass influx of new....well, I do predict rough waters ahead. Just think about it: By the new year there will no Watts', no Moon's, very few Slaters, no Dennis, Sam or Chrissie.....and a whole host of randomers. I think it will take viewers a while to get over the old lot and to warm to the new. It's a hugely risky move of EastEnders....I reckon it will either make or break the show for good.

I don't think Ruby's too immature for a proper relationship, she seems way more mature than any othre 17 year old that I know!

As for the actress who plays her, I think she's great! To me, she portrays a teenager very well (most likely because she is the same age or around about that). I haven't noticed the eye thing you're talking about but I'll be on the look out!

Yeah I think she's actually a very good actress, but everyone has their own opinion! I like the Ruby/Juley relationship, but I don't want it to end up like Kareena and Mickey - with her going off to be with her family. It's a bit strange how no one seems to know if Ruby is actually leaving. :unsure:

The Cure, I agree with you about everyone leaving, but there's not much they can do about it as most of those actors and actresses have chosen to leave of their own accord. I do think they need to sort out the situation with Letitia Dean though - either she wants the job or she doesn't. You don't see other cast members flouncing in and out whenever they feel like it. As it stands, I think they're doing the right thing with bringing in new family members for existing characters, rather than just a load of random people.
