New girl on the block
EastEnders new girl Lisa Faulkner makes an impression with fans… as barmaid Tracey speaking gets viewers excited
The actress made her debut as feisty businesswoman Fi Browning
LISA Faulkner's sassy start to life in Albert Square went down a storm with fans.
Making her debut as Fi Browning on Thursday night's show, Lisa made an immediate impression telling a pair of cocky schoolboys she had tights older than them and to come back when they'd reached puberty.

She made her way to the Queen Vic and certainly didn't endear herself to Shirley Carter, wrongly assuming the licensee of the pub was the cleaner.
They traded barbs as Fi went through the pub's books and found out they weren't up to scratch.

Fi was at the heart of another moment that got viewers talking - stalwart barmaid Tracey getting a line.
The character is nearly always silent, but viewers loved hearing her voice on the show.
