Just out of interest, why do you and Abrighty feel the need to end almost every post with a blush smilie? What are you blushing about? It's incredibly annoying anyway.

I thought the blush was there to show your embarrassment?

Isn't that what people usually blush about?

Hes a great dark character ; psychopathic and attractive - makes for good soap shenanigans...
Exactly and I never know what he's going to say or do next. I wouldn't like him in real life but I watch soaps for entertainment and he entertains me.

I didn't think you were. I was just saying my opinion's the opposite
LOL I know. Robert will be taken down by the HBIC in 2017 though Maybe on the show as well, I'd love to see Charity take him down.

I hope he continues to scheme, manipulate and say horrible things. I'm loving seeing his softer side but I kinda miss how he used to be at the same time.

I love Charity too! She's another one of my favourites. I can't wait for her to return properly.

Agree about Robert - I try to stay out of commenting on 'that' storyline and pairing, but I preferred him when he was scheming - I think Ryan Hawley actually plays that devious side of him better than the softer more caring side somehow.

Thanks Reserved, you must be knackered

Sad Cain didn' t win but at least he' s top three. As others have said, this really proved what a strong cast of characters and actors ED has. I found some rounds really difficult.

HBIC is a good description of Charity - Horrible, Boring, Inconsiderate Creep

LOL no, It stands for Head Bitch In Charge, now your definition of HBIC could fit Jai though.

It is - embarrassment or shame. That's why I don't get it and why seeing it for no discernible reason after almost every post is so irritating.

I've never warmed to Pearl. I've only been watching ED since the Cameron climax and I've really never seen Pearl do anything even remotely interesting in that time. Was she better years ago?
She used to be great with Len. *sniff* And better when she had him and Edna and Betty to bounce off as well. She can do a great drunk.

Agree about Robert - I try to stay out of commenting on 'that' storyline and pairing, but I preferred him when he was scheming - I think Ryan Hawley actually plays that devious side of him better than the softer more caring side somehow.
He does play devious better. I get why Robert's won the poll - the R****n factor, he's got a cute face, and he's been a fun villain to watch (up to the Stepford Wife conversion). But although he's a nifty actor and much improved since he came in, he doesn't do emotional or sincere very well, I don't think. I guess he needs to work on that. I find it a bit cringey and forced. One of many reasons why I don't like him the way I did.

But it's great about Cain and specially Bernice and Leyla - there's so many good characters, it makes up for it if another bit of the show isn't doing it for me.

Robert won? How can he win this when his character has been irrelevant and kind of ruined in the last months with an implausible personality transplant?
At least Aaron, Cain, Chas and Charity were top contenders too.

My two faves Aaron and The HBIC ranked lower than expected, like the OP I'm surprised murderous Robert has ranked so high, while he is fun to watch he is hardly the best character on the show.
Lower than expected? #2 is pretty great in a cast with like 70 characters donīt you think?
I agree with you about Robert, he has been great to a point, but not very top material, certainly not at this point of his storyline.
What the hell is HBIC?

I'm ok with Aaron as #2 I wanted Charity to be higher. Oh and The HBIC is Charity and it stands for Head Bitch In Charge.

Right now thereīs no reason why he should win from my point of view. Maybe at some point of early 2015 (not my favorite then either, but you know, entertaining) but what they have done with him lately is one of those fails soaps do sometimes. Itīs definitely not a great moment for the character. I think it is a pretty sensible thing to say so I hope nobody does that to me

Ok thanks. I knew it was about Charity. Itīs a great title for her. Sheīs such a great and juicy character played brilliantly by the actress. Sheīs perfect for the role. However I think it got to a point it was too much and this year-long break was soooo needed. Now, Iīm excited about her again.
