anyone else reckon she is one of the best newcomers acting wise? Need to see more of Sinead and the O'Connor family

I had high hopes for her and Taylor getting together, hope her mum comes into the show.

I was indifferent to Sinead for a long time. She didn't work well in a relationship with Bart. She was really nasty and unlikeable during most of the bullying storyline and I didn't like her at all.
Around the time of Esther's suicide attempt though it seemed like the writing for her got a lot better, and her performances had more nuance and depth. Even when she was still being nasty, she was really entertaining to watch. I'm only around late May or so 2013 at this point, Sinead just got arrested for dealing drugs.
In the last few months she's really risen to near the top of my favorite characters, and I really admire the actress's talents. She's really good at bringing subtext to her performances, so when she's rude again to Esther, or rejecting her own baby, I'm fascinated by her hidden emotions.
For what it's worth, around the same time Diane started getting more interesting to me after a long time of being indifferent to her, and now Finn has come back, and I really am liking the actor there too. So it looks like 2013 the O'Connors are going to shine - by which I mean entertain me by their suffering.

She reminds me a bit of a mini Jacqui.

Funny. I was thinking she reminded me of a mini Mercedes lol
I don't think Sinead has Jacqui's strength or resourcefulness. She's more prone to self destruction, selfishness, meanness.

Yeah guess I can see Mercy aswell in her. Both gobby cows lol.

I've really loved Sinead in the last few eps I've seen, some real gritty stuff, with the apartment all squalid, she's skint, tried to pick up a footballer at the Loft and got propositioned by the manager or whatever he was. She nearly slept with him for a wad of cash, and instead wound up running off with all his money. But then Phoebe stole the money off her before she could even pay the rent.
Sinead is such a kid too. Here she is, a struggling young mom, and as soon as she gets her hands on some money she throws a big party. It's been an interesting development with Sinead keeping her baby, but I think poor Katy would be better with Diane, but then Sinead would be better off at home with Diane too, but Sinead doing things the hard way makes for a better story.
Lately she's really been one of my favorite characters. Sinead nearly prostituting herself was definitely something Mercedes would do, and I did cheer her on when she wound up stealing the money instead.

Soon she will start dating a guy who I think she really suits (much more than Bart/Freddie put together) only it doesn't have a good outcome lol. Sinead throwing the party was a joke she should have put that towards Katy and it shows how young and stupid she is. She should be at home with Diane and Tony.

I can't wait to see who Sinead's next boyfriend is! My guess is Callum, as he's been single for awhile, and I can't think of anyone else on the show who seems like they'd be a good match for her.
Sinead is now pretending to be a prostitute so she can rob men, a good story for Sinead as she continues to struggle to support herself and Katie.
