Casualty fans took to Twitter to express their support for Stevie, played by Elinor Lawless, in last night's episode.

Stevie suffers a crisis of confidence after clinical lead Max Christie tells her that her patient mortality rates are high after her patient Becca tragically passes away after being stabbed. 

The doctor gravitates towards Donna for some reassurance, after her second patient of the day passes away. 

Max keeps a close eye on Stevie, but his presence makes her nervous, causing viewers to express their support for the downtrodden character. 

'max is really out of line nahhh i know he doesn’t really know what’s been going on with stevie but like he was just trying to stir the pot there and make her feel worse than she already does,' wrote one fan on Twitter. 

And another wrote, 'poor stevie :( i hope she gets her confidence back soon.'

'Beautiful performance @elinor_lawless hope Stevie finely finds happiness I love you Xx,' wrote another fan on Twitter. 

While another enthusiastically wrote, 'STEVIE SLAYINGGGGGGG IM SO GLAD WE HAVE SOME STEVIE CONTENT IVE MISSED HER SO MUCH.'

And a third said, 'Stevie is slowly becoming one of my favourite characters.'

Other fans commented on how Stevie shouldn't be doubting herself, with another one writing, 'Stevie is a good doctor she shouldn’t be doubting herself I blame Marcus for her confidence crisis.'

While another said, 'Aww Stevie you did your best none of this is your fault Becca’s boyfriend is to blame Xx.'

Will Stevie get her confidence back and learn to ignore the negative comments from Max? Tune in next weekend to find out. 

Casualty airs next Saturday 6th May on BBC1 at 8.30pm.
