+ Leanne - Always loved her and will continue to do so
+ Nick - Angry Nick is the best! Been so much more interesting post-crash
+ Kal - Yes, I know everyone else hates him but I like him
+ Kylie - No specific reason, she just really entertains me
+ Tim - Him and Sally are fabulous together!
+ Norris - Because he's Norris!
+ Owen - I've always liked Owen. He's always blamed for everything by the harpies of women he's surrounded by
+ Todd NotHitler - "Thick as gravy" description of Maria was brilliant! I love him being a total shizbag
+ Roy - Because he's Roy! His stand-off with Peter the other week was brilliant

David, Kylie, Sophie, Steve, Mary, Carla, Eva, Royston, Owen, Tim....sticking him with Sally and keeping him away from Faye was a godsend for the character it seems.

Sally
Tim
Steph
Audrey
Leanne
Steve
Liz

Carla, Leanne, Tim, Rob, Steph, Luke, Kal, Sinead and Steve.

Despite my frequent moaning there's a lot I really like:

Sally and Tim - genius couple
Deirdre, Tracy and Rob - gutted he's a murderer as he works so well with Tracyluv
Carla and Peter - despite the Tina storyline and Peter's behaviour, they are great characters and and actors so even at their worst, very watchable.
Audrey, David and Kylie and to a lesser extent Gail - she works well when she's with D&K. Not sure on this Michael the burglar storyline though.
Nick, Leanne and Curly Simon - prefer them together but I do love mad Nick and Simon is hilarious (sorry, know that isn't a popular opinion)
Steph - wish Tina had lived so we could have had a genuine friendship. She has a lot of potential but I'm not loving her brother so far so hope she gets some other roots
Beth - don't really like Kirk or Craig but as a trio they work, she's the stand out for me though.
Steve, Lloyd and Andrea - have never really liked Steve but I do like their friendship and am enjoying Andrea.
Owen and Anna - another controversial one but I think they work.
Gary - not so much Izzy though I don't hate her!
Mental Maria - but only when she's nuts. I used to love Marcus but since he got with ToddHitler he has lost me.
Dev - so bad he's good.

So there you go - I think I like more than I dislike. I'm fairly indifferent to the likes of Liz, Tony, Tyrone, Emily, Eileen and Julie and there are only a few who make me want to switch off and those, in no particular order, are Sean, Michelle, Fiz, Mary, Norris, Sophie and Katy.

I forgot to mention Maria, Dev , Audrey , Beth and Mary

Mary, Deirdre, Roy, Sally, Carla, Tim, Tony, Audrey, Rob, Todd, David and Kylie. Also Dev, it a 'so bad he's good' kinda way.

More than I thought, to be honest. Corrie does have a lot of good characters mixed in with a lot of bad ones. I think it has the most uneven cast out of all the soaps.

I remember the days were people thought Fiz was adorable and always the victim in storylines.
I think Maddie's character might actually grow on me. I never thought I would say that

Carla
Nick
David
Kylie
Gail
Steve
Eileen
Rob
Tracy
Peter
Liz
Deidre

My favourites are - Carla; Steve, Maria, Dennis, Dev; Roy; David, Audrey, Gail, Nick, Liz; Gary; Sally; Katy, Jason, Michelle; Emily; Rita. Beth, Todd, Lloyd, Deidre, Norris,
Eileen.

I am delighted that Jim is due to return.

Fiz & Sean...which is handy. As they going nowhere. Ever. You're going to need to watch them and enjoy them as they dominate every storyline and slowly but surely take over your soul.
