…and again, followed by the voluptuous Dibley priestess!
Come fill my little world right up, right up, right uuuup. *happy sigh*
Most Despised RA Leading Lady
Ta-da! Not as clear-cut beforehand than I thought. I mean, Marian is THIRD? That’s a bit of a surprise, surely! I thought she’d be at least two, and that the battle would be between her and Sarah, but instead, it’s Sarah and Alona. Go fig! So, in keeping with tradition, here’s a picture… the extended version, you might say:
…not by Lucas, but hey, can’t have it all.
He totally would’ve done it eventually.
Surely.
Here’s one of many grating moments:
with another grating moment, woo!

Thank you for all the work you did…these were really fun polls!
I’ll be back to check out your blog!
It was a lot of fun. Glad you liked it, and you’re welcome back any time! 🙂
Great work on the Fanstravaganza Traxy!
Also, these clips are good. Sarah Caulfield was very sinister, heartless and cold in this clip. I never understood what he saw in her, that’s why this relationship was the worst!
As for Alona Cummingham (interesting name for her character, don’t you think!) I don’t understand why people didn’t like her. I think her reactions as the cheated on wife are spot on, and she does have more insight into these things being a “relationship” counsellor. Her husband hasn’t been performing his “husbandly” duties for 7 months (!), he’s accused of having an affair with a young girl (his client), and he lies to her about it….I’d be a bit bitchy myself!!
Thanks, phylly3! 🙂 You’ve got a very good point about Alona, although if we are to believe Paul when he swears he hasn’t had an affair, she’s a bit bitchy, because why won’t she believe him? Still, I thought Marian would come in second!
