Can't begin to choose a fave scene. I do, however, get a lot of fun from the cock-up's in the outtakes, especially the ones where Mandana uses a naughty word. I also love the trailer for SA where M can't get the web site addy right and they have to do it a few times. Her expression when she's concentrating before one of the takes is just one of the most striking images of her.

Simone: www Mandana: dot Simone: bad girls Mandana: dot Simone: co Mandana: dot Simone: uk Mandana: dot Simone: No, there's no dot there. Mandana: Full stop And, of course, the classic, "No, I'm not. I'm Mandana Jones."

Here's one I'd like to add. S1,Ep3. Nikki's reading in the library and Rachel is browsing around and Fenner walks in. F: Rachel, you got a minute? N: Jesus. You get around, don't you? F: Listen to me, you interfering dyke.. Just keep that snout of yours where it belongs or you're going to end up shagging the end of my boot, OK? N: You really know how to talk to a woman, don't you Fenner?
Now this scene you get to see Mandana's face real close up. And you realize the Beauty that's Mandana.
I wish they had similar close ups in "Powers". Mandana in long hair.

S2, Ep6 This is also one of my fave scenes of Mandana. Nikki: Sorry, Am I hogging the en-suite? Barbara: Not at all. Nikki: So what you in for? ( Barbara pauses—a bit hesitant) Nikki: Oh I didn’t mean to pry or anything. Barbara: People are about to find out sooner or later won’t they? I’m in for manslaughter. Nikki: What happened? What did you get? Barbara: 3 years. What are you in for? Nikki: Same as you manslaughter only with me it was for real. Mandana all bronzed and lithe looking and the way she pronounces ‘manslaughter’. Very very nice. I was (re) looking at the screencaps yesterday and really enjoyed them. The Ten Best Eyerolls of Mandana gives you an idea of her great brown eyes. The comments next to each of the screencaps made me smile. She just charms you in.

Se1,Ep9 At the end of the episode just before Yvonne makes her first appearance. Nikki and Monica are standing by the railings looking down. Nikki: You’re gonna miss all this. Monica: Yes, how will I cope. To think..soon you’ll leave this all behind. Nikki: You’re very confident all of a sudden. Monica: No..no I’m just thinking positive. Like you said. Nikki: Thought there was something you weren’t telling me for a minute. In this scene I noticed how Mandana gets in acting mode. Just as the camera is moving upwards and probably the director calling action you notice Mandana moving her foot left to right. And at the end of the dialog her face becomes sort of emotionless...a kind of acting mode turned off. It’s very subtle. She doesn’t waste her emotions. Se1,Ep10 The Julies ask Nikki if she could get Helen to sign the petition for open visits. Julie Saunders: Nikki’s gonna take it up to Miss Stewart. (Julie to Nikki) You think she’s really on our side,right Nikki? Nikki: I wouldn’t count on it. Julie Saunders: Eh? Nikki: Don’t think Helen Stewart’s on anyone’s side except her own. Looks like Nikki had Miss Stewart’s number right from the start. Don’t know why I remembered this but just wanted to share with you. ;D

Another of my absolute favourite scenes is one with Nikki and Yvonne in season 3, when the knife goes missing and Nikki thinks Yvonne might have it for self-harm purposes:
Nikki : I know you're going through a difficult time right now but give me the knife and let me help you. Yvonne : I'm not suicidal you stupid cow! I just want a shag! And as far as helping me goes, darling, you just haven't got the tackle! Nikki : Wanna bet?
Great scene between two strong women.

I have to say that i hang on every word Nikki says so it would be too difficult to pick out just one line...i drown in her gorgeous brown eyes and i swoon at her every look/glance/smile.
Mandana has got the most delicious sexy accent that i could listen to for hours.
The sight of Nikki's naked back/bum and side glimpse of breast in Losing It was scrumptious - though i'd died and gone to heaven when i first saw that...think i've almost worn that part of the DVD out.
I love my gorgeous Mandana to pieces.
