Character
Candice
Candice in Chewing Gum (2015), played by Danielle Walters.
Candice is Tracey's best friend and near-constant companion on the estate, the one person who actually listens to her increasingly disastrous plans for sex, love and independence. She's blunt, streetwise and quick with an opinion, offering advice Tracey rarely takes and getting dragged into schemes she knows are doomed from the start.
Danielle Walters plays Candice with a deadpan sharpness that cuts through Tracey's spiraling chaos without ever feeling like a straight-man setup. The friendship reads as genuinely lived-in — bickering, loyal, a little exasperated — and Walters' timing turns throwaway asides into some of the show's funniest, most grounded moments.
