As much as I love Ian, not sure I could live his life. Very few people respect, hes had a lot of rubbish thrown at him over the years and he suffers from mental disorder. In terms of males, maybe Mick Carter would be my choice. Hes quite popular with his community and is a peacemaker, loving family man. He has kids and a partner who adore him and stick by him and is always ready to lend a helping hand. He is very different to many of the nice guys in Ee over the years, who tend to be labelled as boring (Ricky, Billy etc)
In terms of females, I would love to be Sharon. She has an amazing ability to put whatever crisis she has behind her and just carry on with life whilst maintaining a bubbly and compassionate personality
