David is a sweetheart, and Nancy was queen but everyone hated her.
Who we NEED to hate are the obnoxious twats like Kristina & John.
We don't hate David or Nancy it's just that they're boring and don't bring anything entertaining to the show. We do hate John but it's good that there is an antagonist or else it'd be boring.
Stephanie was good on hollyoaks regardless of how awful and disgusting she is on here, to be fair she was more or less playing herself and it was the writing that made it seem good, but still.
