I think the characters are fine, its the writing and storylines that are the problem.

None of the writers are on the poll as they get given whose in what and they arent in control of the story outline. But dtc is.

Nancy Carter should have been played by Danny Dyers real life Daughter.

Disagree. IMO, Maddy Hill plays Nancy well. She's also works well, with the actors who play her family.

OP - the characters you call "problems" other people might like. So to be fair to all EE viewers on here you should have listed all the characters in EE, not just the ones you call "problems".

Dean, though I wouldn't shed any tears if Buster went too.
Bring back Carly I say, so that Mick can have at least one nice sibling relationship. Not sure why Jane should go, despite the Bobby/Lucy/Cindy stuff. |

Missed storyliners and roxy off. Personally i like linda, tina, sonia, nancy and lee and i dont see them as a problem. Rapidly going of shirley becauses shes being force fed to use recently and gone of jane with this beth storyline. Other characrers i dont like i havent included Like les and mo and the whole phil/sharon set up |

Are you really trying to hold Shirley and the Carters accountable for the state of the entire show?

What? No. The carters are just often the characrer assoiated with the state with the show. I think dtc is more to blame then the carters.

(Only including those who are affectinf rhe show and not because their character is dull) The only character that I would consider getting rid of are Roxy. EE cast is strong but the writing is shit and their is very little thought for the long term effect in stories. We need a new family imo |

Dean is the only one they should get rid of, the rape aftermath has been a complete mess and the only way it can be fixed is the departure of Dean. Trying to redeem the character won't work, the rape will always be there with the character. The main issues with the soap at the moment is the pacing of storylines, not balancing the screentime of characters, focusing on love triangles and the repetitive writing. Get this right and the show can be great again. Thing is, getting rid of DTC won't immediately sort out all the issues with the show, the next EP could be worse. DTC is more than capable at producing the show, he just needs to step back, learn from mistakes and realise he is producing a soap not a love fest dedicated to his own family |

The Carters were brilliant but now with DTC's cock up with the choice of rapist Dean Wicks now has to die to save the Carters.

This. There are characters who I am not interested in, like Ben or think are played by bad actors such as Les. However generally every character has a role to play n the grand scheme of things.

I know several FMs on here in 'real life'. They all like the Carters but are afraid to say so because they know they'll get shouted down by some "hardcore moaners" - that phrase isn't mine by the way, it was said by one of the FMs in question.

Shirley i liked but her overuse is putting me off her. Mick ie the onlt one i cant tolerate. As individuals most are fone but some bring them down as they are often classed as the unit.1 |

The carters are one of the best things about it but dlt has made awful choices too like turning Dean into a rapist and i thought Dean became a bit of a hardcase after his release from jail.

In the last eighteen months we have had the Cokers, Hubbards, Carters and Kazemis. We don't need a new family.

At least have a proper poll joe. There are a few characters I wouldn't miss, and they are not Carters.

Just ones ive seem moaned about. i missed of roxy. Also characters who are annoying like mo, fatboy and les are not big enough. Also with phil ans sharon its their relationship and not the characters themselves.
I would agree with others that it is the pacing and storytelling that needs to be altered slightly, the characters are there for a purpose and I enjoy the majority. |
