Shocked with the results? I did think that Hilda would triumph but yet again this week's poll surprises me. What would Hilda say eh?

I am going to be so hated when I say this but I could not stand the character Blanche. This has nothing to do with the actress herself but Blanche was a horrible cruel person. There I said it................lol I wonder if anyone else agrees with me.
I don't think so Anon! Blanche is definitely in my top 5 favourite characters.
Anonymous, that makes two of us.
I used to think she was just a cruel woman, then she said to Blanche "good looks are a curse. You and Kenneth should count yourselves lucky." I looked forward to her onscreen after that.
