EE's Top 20 Most Iconic Characters
I saw a picture a few days ago where someone had photoshopped their '20 most iconic' into the Queen Vic, so I thought it'd be a cool thread to make. Who would be your 20 most iconic?
Mine- 1. Den Watts 2. Angie Watts 3. Sharon Watts/Rickman/Mitchell 4. Pauline Fowler 5. Michelle Fowler 6. Martin Fowler 7. Dot Cotton 8. Nick Cotton 9. Ian Beale 10. Cindy Beale 11. Kathy Beale 12. Phil Mitchell 13. Grant Mitchell 14. Peggy Mitchell 15. Pat Evans 16. Kat Slater 17. Janine Butcher 18. Stacey Slater 19. Shirley Carter 20. Frank Butcher |

Your list is pretty much spot on (especially the Top 3!)
Perhaps Tiffany would be in there too. |

Shirley does not belong in that list all. Bianca is far more iconic. Dennis Rickman is missing as well as if shirley is more iconic than him.
Oh wait Ronnie Mitchell is not in that list. Shes waaay more iconic than Shirley. Shirley has become so overrated since her contrived family moved in. Even Mark Fowler is more iconic than her Zoe Slater too. Im sure i'm missing a few more. Dont mean to be rude I just dislike Shirley a lot |

I dislike Angie, Phil and Nick. That doesn't mean anything. We're not picking our favourites.
I actually think Shirley is on her way to becoming iconic now they are exploring her more, interestingly alot of my friends who don't watch EastEnders, still know who Shirley is.

The OP has made a pretty comprehensive list, although the I'd disagree that Martin Fowler and Shirley Carter would be in the top 20. Of course the term 'iconic' is subjective, but my criteria for describing an iconic character would be those who have a place in the public consciousness; they are instantly recognisable even to people who aren't fans of the show:
Mine are: Den Watts Sharon Watts Angie Watts Pauline Fowler Pat Butcher Frank Butcher Ian Beale Dot Cotton Michelle Fowler Arthur Fowler Cindy Beale Janine Butcher Kathy Beale Phil Mitchell Grant Mitchell Nick Cotton Peggy Mitchell Kat Slater Stacey Slater Bianca Butcher |

Not in order
![]() 1. Den Watts 2. Angie Watts 3. Pat Butcher 4. David Wicks 5. Janine Butcher 6. Kat Slater 7. Phil Mitchell 8. Grant Mitchell 9. Pauline Fowler 10. Ian Beale 11. Dot Cotton 12. Ronnie Mitchell 13. Stacey Slater 14. Bianca Butcher 15. Peggy Mitchell 16. Cindy Beale 17. Dennis Rickman 18. Michelle Fowler 19. Arthur Fowler 20. Sharon Watts There might be a couple of others that come just behind that, for me. Shirley, Max, Steve Owen, maybe Mel or Lisa. |

I can think many memorable moments from Dennis and Ronnie for example edit - jb reminded me of steve owen. Hes more iconic than shirely. Oh and surely Little Mo is more iconic than her as well |

I guess such lists depend on how long someone has been a viewer. Sometimes I forget the show is older than some forum members.
