Isn't Lacy Turner (Stacey Slater) a wonderfull actress.

I am so moved by her performance, she's billiant.

Totally amazing actress, better than half of Hollywood atm.

I was watching tonight thinking the same thing.

I watched tonight for the first time in years as a mental health professional who has been involved in sectioning people expecting to go "oh what a load of shit"

Actually she did a bloody brilliant job only one tiny criticism from here!

She is one of the best actors on tv. Fantastic performance. We must remember however, that she has been given some really good storylines.

Totally agree, dh an I both said the same thing this week.

Forehead, the reason she's been given them is because she's so talented and can totally handle them... unlike Sam Mitchell who I'm sorry to say ought to crawl back under the rock she just emerged from...

CAFW - what is your small criticism?

she is amazing

agree absolutely - as is the woman who plays her mum

how many of you didn't cry?

I have to admit, it did make me cry

I cried. And texted my friend to see if she was crying. She was.

i have found stacey and her mums storylines earlier in the year very moving.

a fantastic actress

she is fab i agree

She is brill. they handled her scenes getting taken away very well, i hope bradley doesnt get on the plane

FABisintraining the bit where she started saying she had seen her baby etc, prob more because I've recently MC rather than the plot itself.

i was thinking that this afternoon as i watched the end too. and her mum also.

CAFW - I am sorry for your mc. I have had 2 and it is so painful. However, I do think it is possible she thinks she has seen her child so wouldn't see it as something unrealistic in the storyline.

I thought her portrayal of the anxiety, depression and paranoia was absolutely incredible. Really did the subject justice. Agree the actress who plays her mum is very good too.

Yes she has portrayed a Bi Polar sufferer very well. I wonder how she copes when she's off screen, it can't be eas to just switch off the character's trauma and suffering.

I remember many years ago, when I lived at the YWCA, there were 2 women on 2 separate ocassions who behaved in exactly the same way as Stacey. At the time we didn't really appreciate the nature of their illness and just thought they were "nutters" and steered clear of them.

I think such storylines help people who are ignorant about mental illness understand and sympathise with people who have this terrible condition.

I LOVE Stacey. I always have. Every since she first started as a cheeky scamp trying to snog Gary Hobbs (do you remember that?). I think the Max and Stacey storyline was one of the best ever.

I don't know enough about bi-polar to know if she's doing an accurate job of portraying it but she is an absolutely amazing actress and it seems pretty convincing to me.

Give the girl an Oscar.
