Esther falls to the ground.
I love Hollyoaks but I feel this story line is getting a bit out off hand now. I'd hate to think that girls or boys in real life who were getting bullied would see suicide as there only way out. I think the storyline needs to come to an end with Sinead and Ruby getting what they deserve. Storylines like this go on forever and they just play it out. Sinead and Ruby keep blaming Esther for the deaths off their friends, its so frustrating as it is obvious to everyone that it was Bart driving out off his head on weed and not driving carefully that caused Maddie to loose control off the bus. I don't see why they just can't get over it! I know its only a soap but it is soooo frustrating :/ lol

This storyline reminds me of myself when I'm beibg bullied but mine was not as bad as hers I got picked on so much and I didn't stand up to them and all I did I went to the teachers it worked but later it returned so it carried on like this and when I told my parwnts yhey just assumed it was my fault. Now it is on and off and that's the reason why I didn't become a prefect at my school, this affects me so much because I always had suicide thoughts and I just let them get away with it even if I tried to stand up to them they all laughed at me

But at least you told someone - you didn't keep it all in like Esther and let it get to this stage. My only gripe with this storyline is that Jen is a beyond ridiculous caricature of a teacher. She knows the extent of the bullying and all she wants to do is get into Tilly's knickers. I hope anyone even thinking of doing something like this tells everyone they can even the Samaritans if it'll help, because as Esther will soon find out death is never the answer only a way of avoiding the solution.
