    Thanks for this dullag. Hopefully we get to see more of Liam and Whitney, it would be pointless otherwise since they didn't leave with Bianca for a reason.

    Mick and Linda haven't even appeared in a single episode this year so I don't know why people seem to think they are over used.

    Thanks for the thread Dully me old mucker

    My predictions:
    1) Linda Carter
    2) mick Carter
    (Just because they had. Break at the start of the year doesn't mean they won't heavily dominate again for the remainder of this year)
    3) Ian Beale
    4) max branning
    5) Charlie cotton and Stacey slater
    6) Ben Mitchell
    7) roxy Mitchell
    8) Phil Mitchell
    9) Jane Beale
    10) shabnam masood and Kat slater

    its interesting to see in 2003 Alfie had 176 eps in a year, think he was landlord then and people say that a lots of micks appearances are not down to that.

    I think Nancy will be in the top ten. gonna have a think about it before i do them all.

    interesting reading Dullagj2

    Thanks for the thread Dullag, I'm glad you're still doing this thread :D Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into this. I know it's appreciated by many of the readers here.

    It's so strange to see Linda and Mick so low down the count! I wonder how soon it'll take them to catch up? But they won't win January.

    Seeing as 6 Carters got into the top 10 last year, I suspect they'll feature heavily this year also. I think Mick, Linda, Nancy and Shirley will crack the top 10. Tina I think will just be short whereas I'd be very shocked to see Dean last the year. Lee will probably chart decent. Therefore the other 6 I'll add will be Stacey, Max, Kat, Alfie, Ian and Jane.

    Its kinda hard to guess though considering Dean nearly got in the top 10 from rejoining the soap in April. :o

    Anyway I look forward to seeing how the thread progresses throughout the year.

    Mick or Linda will win again. As soon as they are back they take over again - they already have an episode dedicated to them, Shirley and Dean on 21 Jan or around then.

    Kat, Alfie, Shirley, Ian, Phil and Max will do well. They always do

    Roxy should be up the top this year after only appearing in like 60 episodes in 2014. That's about 3 months worth of episodes.

    I agree with your list. I would also add Sharon at the top 10 because shes always at the top 10 character count every year even though Sharon is always having a few weeks off. Ronnie and Stacey will fare well I think :)

    I hope Roxy will be a prominent character.

    Top 5

    - Shabnam Masood
    - Stacey Branning
    - Charlie Cotton
    - Ronnie Mitchell
    - Roxy Mitchell

    I think there's a possibility that Mick and Linda will be in the Top 10, but I don't think they will be in the Top 5. Max Branning and the Mitchell's could also fare well.

    Of course, Linda and Mick go from 0 to 5 appearances in a matter of days, and Ian Beale, the one with the big story coming up, goes from 0 to 5 appearances in almost a month. :)

    I'm not bitter. :D Thanks for the update dull

    Weird to see Ben Mitchell and Abi Branning so high up. Abi did quite well last year as well!

    As much as I love the Carters, it's nice to not see one of them win the month. Even nicer to see Stacey at the top!

    It is nice to see kush quite high up after only appearing in the odd episode since he arrived.

    Guessing mick and Linda are still
    Appearing in every episode now they are back. -.-

    I'm hooping ian wins February as
    That is anneversary month and when Lucy's killer is exposed xD

    so despite being missing for half a month, Mick and Linda still are only 4 behind the leader. That just proves everyones point about over exposure of the Carters.
