Nancy is 18. Jessica, who plays her, is 24. Don't you think Nancy looks 24 and that the attempt by the programme makers to pass her off as an 18 year old aint working?!! She is supposed to be Hannah's age but looks (and is) way older. Who else thinks she looks 24?

Know what you mean. She does look young but it is getting a bit like American TV with 20 somethings playing teenagers all the time.

Why is they cant find an 18 year old to play an 18 year old?

Yeah, she defo acts and looks older than 18. It's the same with Sarah and JP as well - both actors are over 20 as far as I know!

Yeah she should do an advert for anti ageing cream. Can see her script:

"I use Oil of Ulay so I can keep playing the part of kids in teenage dramas...but I do it because im worth it'.

me neither, not at all! If the character Nancy acts older then that is because of the script - and that would be expected really. Nancy is unsupported by family and has the joint responsibility of Charlie and she is in a living in relationship! Not to mention all the experiences she has had. But Jessica Fox look 24? No way!

Loui Batley is 20 (DOB 02 January 1987); James Sutton 24 (31 January 1983).

James was born the same day as car front seat belts became law!

It's not uncommon for actresses up to 30 to play teenage roles if their looks suggest they can get away with it. Look at Fiona Wade - in Grange Hill in 1996, and ten years later playing another schoolgirl in Where The Heart Is.

I didnt know she was in Crossroads, what was her character like there? I dont like her in Oakies, she's so pushy and rude.

An outrageous party-girl type - and it turned out she was the secret daughter of the hotel boss.
