Jackie Dobbs and Deirdre Barlow - it's a girl thing

I'm looking forward to the return of Jackie Dobbs, are you? However, I'm hoping for more scenes between Jackie and her old-cell mate, Deirdre this time around.

The last time Jackie was on the Street she and Deirdre didn't even see each other, never mind cross words, tear each other's hair out or make the sign of the devil at each other from across the road.

Jackie Dobbs made life hell for Deirdre inside prison and wasn't much nicer to her when she turned up on the Street when they'd both been released. It'd be great to see Jackie try - and fail miserably - to worm her way back into Deirdre's life. Deirdre will get so stressed by it all she'll have to go and stand in the back lane. She'll have a fag hanging out of one side of her mouth and out of the other side, she'll play the harmonica.

  2. They DID have a scene together last time round - an awkward chat in the Rovers, with Blanche. Blanche said Jackie had the dress sense of Nana Mouskouri, and Jackie made unflattering comments about Blanche's ski pants. This was screened recently down here in Oz....

  3. As horrible, officious and obnoxious as Jackie is, i really enjoy the character. She's great, in small doses!
