Has there been any soaps with a character in it called Jonathan?

I am just wondering if any soap has ever had a regular character called Jonathan in it? I can't think of any but there must be at least 1 character called Jonathan from a soap?

In EE Roya's foster dad is called Jonathan, though he's not a regular.

Were Johnny Allen and Johnny Carter meant to be Jonathans but just use their names day to day?

Jonathan Gordon-Davies in Brookside 1987-1990

Jonathan (Jonny) Maconie in Holby City 2012-15.

I'm sure there have been others but those 2 come straight to mind.

Well., depends whether it was short for Jonathan or just a variation on John. John Palmer in Sons and Daughters had Johnny as a pet name but John was his full name, not Jonathan.

It takes all sorts to make a thread eh! All I can come up with from Corrie was that Jon Lindsay didn't have the H so perhaps that was short for Jonathan?? ;

Pft! You're obviously too young to remember that soap, The Newcomers. Bozena Gussetwrangler was my favourite in that.

Searching Wiki's lists of characters I've found:
Johnathan Broughton - 1993 Corrie
Jonathan Wright 1974 Corrie
Jonathan Hewitt (son of the infamous Mrs Hewitt) - Eastenders 1992 - played by Johnny Lee Miller!
Dr Johnathon Leroy - Eastenders 2003-2005 - was the Albert Square Doctor
Jonathan "Johnny" Allen - Eastenders 2005 - 2006
Jonathan "Jonny" Foster- Emmerdale - 2007-2008, 2009

I looked at EE, Corrie, Emmerdale, Hollyoaks, Doctors Neighbours and H&A

There are other Johns and Johnnys but I can't find any evidence on Wiki of them being Jonathans/Johnathans/ Jonothans.
