ROXANNE Pallett has been slammed by 20 former Emmerdale co-stars as they give Ryan Thomas their support over Celebrity Big Brother "punch" row.
Cast members past and present took to Twitter to publicly criticise the actress, 35, who stormed out the house on Friday night.
One of the first to share their thoughts was Charley Webb, who plays Debbie Dingle, in the soap, and who crossed paths with Roxanne when she played Jo Sugden from 2005 to 2008.
She wrote: "It’s worrying that someone is allowed to say that about someone and they’re taking it seriously. We’ve just watched it and nothing happened. Outrageous. "
Her former co-star Sammy Winward also gave her opinion on the 'play fighting' incident.
The Katie Sugden actress shared another of Charley's tweets and added: "It’s been a long time coming."
Verity Rushworth, who played Donna Windsor, gave her support to the former Corrie actor, 34, with what appeared to be a thinly-veiled attack on Roxanne.
The star posted: "Karma’s a bitch..... xx"
She also shared a tweet by Adele Silva, who played character Kelly Windsor.
Also referencing "karma", Adele wrote: "Sometimes it takes a long long time to wait for karma or to see what someone’s really capable of - unfortunately good people get caught up in it ..."
Andy Sugden actor Kelvin Fletcher was another star of the soap to not hold back.
He wrote: "She. Is. Evil. "
Also with strong feelings on the subject was Sally Ann Matthews, who played Sandra Briggs in Emmerdale before returning to her current role as Jenny Bradley in Coronation Street.
The popular soap actress added: "The truth will out x"
Taking to Twitter to likewise give his thoughts was Danny Miller, who plays Aaron Dingle.
He shared: "Roxanne’s a known, compulsive liar. Ryan wouldn’t harm a fly. Horrible, attention seeking little liar. Goes from being upset & in pain to dancing & drinking - to going bed, crying she can’t sleep in the same room as Ryan, to worrying about being nominated? You be the judge "
Sue Jenkins, who played Bonnie Drinkwater, wrote: "One of the nicest men on the planet !@ryanjamesthomas "
Victoria Hawkins, who played Sharon Lambert, added: " Roxanne P, still a pathological liar and attention seeking nob I see."
Also taking to Twitter was Michael Keogh, who played Charlie Sellers, who gave his thoughts in five lengthy tweets.
He wrote: "I AM disgusted, appalled & completely sickened by the despicable & covert behaviour of @RoxannePallett.
"We all have a responsibility to expose lies & manipulative individuals.
"Having worked with her 10 yrs ago her behaviour is consistent & there is a pattern to it.
"She needs to be held accountable for her actions/behaviour."
Sam Kane, who played Nick Barrie, wrote: " Shame On You! Seriously. WT actual F. is a great human being. Stand Strong mate. I abhor this kind of horrible bullying through lies and attention seeking. It’s beyond horrendous. The truth will out. is being trivialised.
Nicola Stapleton, who played Danielle Hutch, added: "Stuck on a delayed plane on the runway! Thanks to ...tho was a lovely holiday and just seen all this he’s honestly one of the nicest fellas I’ve met .. poor lad .. totally undeserved.. shocking and foul behaviour x"
Mathew Bose, who played Paul Lambert, shared: "I know I’m not alone glad to see karma finally striking back. Shame so many innocents hurt along the way."
Another co-star Amelia Sefton, who played Penny Drury, wrote: "How can you allow such strong incorrect allegations to be passed by? shocking!"
