My guesses for the top 10 2014 are:
+ Mick
+ Linda
+ Shirley
+ Phil
+ Carol
+ Max
+ Sharon
+ Ian
+ Denise
+ Kat
Just a slight amendment to the Top 20 - Patrick has now overtaken Michelle, just (also, Arthur is on 885, not 884 - I realised earlier in the year there was an error on my spreadsheet).
Alfie, Max and Carol all stand a good chance of breaking into the Top 20 this year, depending on their total counts for 2014...
Lynne topped the count in 2001 in the same way that Abi managed to this year, peripheral to a lot of story lines, especially since she was working in the cafe at the time. Little Mo lived away from the Square at the beginning and Kat just wasn't as constant a presence (Little Mo appeared in 115 and Kat appeared in 113 during 2001)
I'd be willing to place a bet on the Top 10 (in no specific order) being
Johnny Carter,
Mick Carter,
Linda Carter,
Phil, Mitchell,
Ian Beale,
Max Branning,
Stacey Branning,
Kat Moon,
Bianca Butcher,
Lauren Branning
I think Linda will Top the list.
Poppy appeared today, if only briefly.
Stacey's not back to March and she may have to take a break at some time because Our Girl has been recomisioned for a series.
An All Time one would be VERY long...
The Top 20 All Time (which is a combination of mine and dullagj2's work) is posted above, although not complete as missing some episodes from the early 90s...
Thanks, she wasn't on the cast list but it isn't always 100% accurate. I'll amend it in tomorrow's update.
Mick Carter
Ian Beale
Johnny Carter
Linda Carter
Shirley Carter
Carol Jackson
David Wicks
Lauren Branning
Denise Fox
Kat Moon
Look at all the Carters at the top :O makes a change from the Branning's!
I predict that one of the Carters will rank high, same with Phil, Ian and Sharon. Probably Denise and maybe even Carol too.
I think Ms Snout could well have topped 2014 had she not disappeared with MySistaaaa on NYD. Depending on when she's back, she'll probably be up there.
A top 10 of Stacey/Ronnie/Mick/Linda/Johnny/Tina/Ian/Sharon/Carol/Bianca I think (in any order).

The Carters lead as the Fowlers return to the count.
1. Mick Carter
2. Carol Jackson
3. Kat Moon
4. Ronnie Mitchell
5. David Wicks
6. Linda Carter
7. Bianca Butcher
8. Ian Beale
9. Phil Mitchell
10. Denise Fox
This is hard! I think Stacey's in with a good shout too, but the characters I mentioned above all feel like they're involved in big storylines early on in the year, so I'm taking a punt that they start strong and that carries them through the rest of the year. It might be a case of what happened with Abi last year though and a few characters make little appearances, rather than full blown storylines, and that puts them on top.
Mick Carter
Shirley Carter
Linda Carter
Carol Jackson
Kat Moon
Bianca Jackson
Ian Beale
Denise Fox
David Wicks
Sharon Rickman
I think when they return Ronnie and Stacey will also be high.
In no particular order:
Mick Carter
Shirley Carter
Linda Carter
Johnny Carter
Tina Carter
Ian Beale
Sharon Rickman
Carol Jackson
Stacey Slater
David Wicks
Bianca and Kat will closely follow the top 10 I think. Ronnie will just miss out I think.
Hopefully they use the likes of Billy and Patrick more this year and give them storylines.
Hope Sharon's used more too!
Well you could include Derek Branning from 2012, despite appearing in 1996 briefly. Or Alfie in 2003 and Lynne Slater in 2001.
