Jessie Wallace Arrest!

My sister watches East enders, I dislike it . To me it encourages disrespect and bad attitude in my opinion its horrible and young people watch and think it's acceptable behaviour , now this woman who is a star in the show has shown more disrespectful behaviour to our police force , she should be ashamed of herself, alcohol related or not . I've some unpleasant words to call her but I won't in writing .

I'm enjoying the fact that the police who actually were present at the event are being accused of favouritism towards some actress that half of us have never heard of. Yet a whole bunch of people who weren't even there have questioned Kat/Karen/Kathleen/Jessie's mental health, whether she's addicted, demanded that she be sent to jail, sacked or made to ride in a police van for a week.

Funny old world.

I know plenty of non celeb drinkers, gamblers, drug takers (I mix with some strange people) and they all are "let off" when they fall foul of the law.

I thought for a moment you meant that Labour MP, Jessie Phillips!

Another celebrity let off charges the rest of us wouldn't be. How Katie Price gets away with what's happening ?

Here’s a thought….as punishment for her behaviour she should ride with the police for a week.. Especially if it is with the officer she inflicted pain and suffering on.

I love Eastenders.
Can't imagine the health organisation I work for letting me off scot free if I'd assaulted anybody though

I'm not surprised

The BBC should fire her and a few months in jail might sober her up

Who?

Real life soap on here now it seems.

I’m thinking celebs like this case and Jordan should not have lenient court cases. They need help and sending them home is not the answer. I do hope they both get the help needed.

OK thanks kitty

But who has used it in that way kitty?
No one as far as I can see.

I didn't say they had. I was pointing out that people are talking about the name and the insult. That is all

Alcohol and depression are linked, just saying.

But who has used it in that way kitty?
No one as far as I can see.

But galaxy it is an indisputable fact that Karen is also used as an insult - which is unfair on real Karen's.

I think people are talking about that too The thread has evolved.

Her real life name is Karen. Not sure how else to say this.

I dont like women reffered to as Karen's it is insulting. I cant say it bothers me what Jesse Wallace does, the Police have made their decision.
I also enjoy enjoy East Enders, I find it gritty and it tackles some uncomfortable things.

I watch Easenders too. I love Kat's character along with lots of others.

Getting a bit confused now, I haven’t watched Eastenders for years, but I do seem to remember that her father Charlie, the taxi driver, used to call her Kathleen when she had upset him.

For once and all her name is actually Karen, just that, which is what was meant when discussing whether she were a Jessie on her Equity card or a Kat as a character or whoever. What has racism got to do with anything?

She doesn't let me down.

Sorry but she lets us women down. I do not like her or the character she plays.

I think it is an ongoing problem she has with alcohol.
Other than that, I don't care too much.
Excess drink always causes problems for people.
I also think the term Karen has racial undertones, since it refers to white, middle class women complaining about non white people for imagined problems. (or did, originally)
