What characters / actors would still be around and how long would they have been playing them for?

Mrs Mack had been in High Road from the early 80's I believe, along with quite a few others.

Every episode of High Road is on STV player and I'm enjoying the realistic community spirit more than any soap on air at the moment

In Brookside Katie Rogers would have been there for 24 years,

Mike, Jacqui and Ron Dixon would be 22 years, same for Maxie Farnham. Jimmy Corkhill would be around 26 years.

Rachel Jordache / Dixon would be 20 years this year, same as Bev McLoughlin

Tinhead would still be there, and he'd be on 16 years now

Good times.
