I don’t think it’s a secret I dislike Bree with a passion and I don’t know if it was way it was written with Jacob But it seemed to me that she convinced him to go off working in the mines for weeks so she could have a affair with Remi and make up stories of Jacob abusing her Jacob gets back angry of course his wife is having a affair and then she kills him poor guy 

The rest of what you said about bree I can't really argue with but find really strange to sympathise with a women basher. He didn't just hit her once when he found out about the affair it was established it was on going long before she arrived in the bay. 

He had kidnapped bree basically rape her (she was to scared to say no to sleeping with him) and Jacob was about to kill Remi bree hit him in self defence once and tried to revive him after I find "killing the poor bloke" a huge stretch. It was clearly unintentional accident done in self defence saving someone else's life and as I said she didn't just run away she tried treating him afterwards 

Yes cheating isn't right but in grand scheme of things it wasn't worst thing in this snerio she was in abusive relationship and his captive not like Levi or Brody who just cheated on wives who treated them well and they got bored when a shiny new toy came along

It just didn’t come across to me we had no bruises on Bree when she was getting with Remi she didn’t hide any scars or marks it was badly written obviously I don’t side with abusers normally But way it was written was Bree shipped Jacob off to work if he was involved in the story more he was hardly in it really it was Bree getting it on with Remi and telling us how Jacob hit her but I can’t remember that really 

Anyway I have never really liked her and it’s down too that story I think

Also Jacob kidnapped Bree when he came after finding out about the affair it would have been better if he returned sooner so we could have had a short little lead into tat instead of just going straight into kidnap and rape A few episodes of him shouting or hitting her just to help with character development Jacob I don’t think had much at all really he was killed too quickly within a few episodes of returning Bree just seemed bored with him too me and because she never worried about what she wore when with Remi or worried about sex or anything with him it just didn’t feel realistic to me I’m probably not explaining right but storyline I thought was rubbish obliviously you’re not supposed to side with the villain or feel sorry for them or continue to dislike Bree so much I find her very annoying haha Shame she’s a main character and not just used as a doctor I like her then

I think Charlotte's death changed something in Josh to an Extent.

Jesse who'd been falling since it ended with Leah, would only get worse. It seemed like they wanted to crush Ben Unwin for quitting again and piled it on.

Has there been any characters you once really like and respected but once something happened made you not able to look at them same way again. 
 

Here’s is  my list 

Alf-After keeping here’s supposed dead wife secret it’s made me not be able to look at Alf as same honest man and makes his whole marriage to Ailsa feel are lie. 
 

Marilyn-After finding out she had supposed daughter she gave up after having affair it’s made look at Marilyn very differently. 
 

Olivia-After she cheated on Hunter just to gain her professional status made me feel she no longer deserved Hunter . 

Willow-After she betrayed Colby I could never look at her as same loyal character even when I  watch old episodes off her  and Nixion shoot and nearly killed you and testify against friend who kill him to protect you and once did all you could stop Colby from handing himself in and you completely did not care that one off  you best friends got beaten in prison and also completely just stranding there  watching people like Nikau and Ziggy being accused . 
 

Jasmine- Leaving Cash and you newfound brother behind and not even coming back to say goodbye. 
 

Mackenzie-Sleepy with Married man  and making out you’re victim just because half town turned against you for you bad moral behaviour. 
 

Tane -Kidnapping baby and thinking you be should treated like hero. 
 

So thoughts on any characters you could never get past on  there bad choices ?. 

The Alf thing, Producers were desperate for him not to be single again so cooked up the Martha McGuffin which proved fruitless as she hasn't been on screen in 3yrs!

Maz, My Head Canon says her affair was reactive to Phil's dirt with an allegedly younger prettier Neighbour or Vice-Versa. In soap, Couples will  try evening the score (Ken/Deidre, Kevin/Sally, Kat/Alfie et al)

Jas needed a fresh start tbf.

With you on Mac, She's lucky Imogen isn't a Mumma Rose level psycho who would have gasolined the farmhouse.

I see Tane's behaviour as more Idiotic than Malicious.
