EE:
Den watts - first pub landlord, first actor in EE to have the first scene, following his storylines of being Sharon's adoptive father along with adoptive mother Angie who was Dens wife. The classic divorce papers that got 30m viewers in, his lust with Sharon's best mate who was 15 Michelle fowler who gave birth to his daughter viki and the shoot down and his big 2003 return after 13 years.

Michelle fowler - being in the first episode, being best mates with Sharon, her and den romp and the birth of viki, she got shot and survived and had a romp with grant and secretly left with his child mark Jnr, we've never seen from Michelle since.

Angie watts - being dens wife and the lie where she had six months to live only for den to find out and hand over the divorce papers

Sharon watts - original EE queen who was in the shows first episode she featured in some of the most classic and remembered storylines.... She was the adoptive daughter of den and Angie. Her marriage to grant and then the affair with his brother phil which came out and was named sharongate. She got rid of grants child only to be told she couldn't carry any kids now. Her exit only to return a few years later as the new landlady of the queen vic under Peggy's nose she was not happy. She found dens son her brother Dennis only for Her fining out her dad was alive, she had an affair with Dennis which resulted to a fued with Zoe slater who Dennis was seeing. Only to go on and find out chrissie killed den and she had a good punch for her, she finally fell pregnant to dennis child only a few days later her dennis was murdered and died in her arms. She has recently returned!

Kat slater - one of the most challenging slaterd off all, she had the shows biggest reveals by revealing that Zoe wasn't her sister but in fact her mother. It's become a famous catch phrase you ain't my muva !! She went on to being a landlady falling in love with the love of her life Alfie after many problems they departed together in 2005. She been a back since 2010 with Alfie which saw her in a another big storyline where ronnie who was very similar to kat swap her dead baby for last alive baby, only to be reunited later. She went on to feature an affair with Derek which she got dumped by Alfie who later reunited and now having twins.

Phil - cos he's phil head of the square

Ian - shows longest running character

Bianca - she was famous for her loud mouth ginger hair rickaaaaayyyy . She had the best 90s story where she had the affair with dan her mums bf Where her and Ricky fell apart. She's has has feud with Sam Mitchell and Natalie. She has returndd and tried again with Ricky which failed. And she's best mates with Kat.

Nick cotton
Janine - the famous EE bit*h
Peggy - she's a martchrial

Stacey slater and jean - there bipolar story was amazing

Lynsey Nolan from 'Hollyoaks' hasn't been mentioned yet but I think after all she did she has to be classed as a legend!

I think they can only be classed as legendary when you know you'll never see them again
