We mustn't exclude the intros and outros for 'Trisha' - they must be made out of genuine cardboard.
I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.

That little mixed race kid inCorrie. Even for a child actor is shockingly bad.

Marlon from Emmerdale who virtually eats the scenery...

Could not agree more!

Awful overacter.

But I will always say at least overacting is trying to perform. So much acting on TV is so low key and underplayed; and the product of screen acting courses that most dramas have been made DULL and many performers seem the same.

Great as it was the first season of Only Fools and Horses has some ham too...

I've never bothered with Lost, but Fox was very good in his previous show, Haunted.

I suppose terrible acting on the screen has already been covered? Many B-films (and majors!) had so many. I thought Michael Gough a bad actor.
