I have to mention Sonia Fowler as she is just so annoying at the moment and even when she was younger when she was playing that trumpet of hers and pining after Jamie Mitchell. Like he would look at you twice when he could have had Zoe Slater

But by a complete miracle Jamie fell in love with her. And i bet nobody saw that coming and when Jamie was killed off, Sonia fell in love with Martin who was the bloke who killed Jamie by running him over. You could not make it up could you

And ever since she has been more annoying so im glad she is leaving


Are there any other soap characters uou remember that were so annoying

Xin in Coronation Street. They spent so long building up Graeme and Tina, and then gave us this awful annoying character to tear them apart for his exit. It was awful.

Jacqui Dixon - Brookside

Although i thought she was a good character i couldn't stand her i'm better than you attitude to everyone on the Close, she got even more annoying when she bought a share in Bar Brookie and thought she was The Close's answer to Karen Brady.

Also the way she treated Katie at times was terrible considering she was meant to be her best friend.

Oh, he was no Jimmy Corkhill. Jimmy was a scally, but he was funny and likable. Les was neither funny nor likable.

that's pretty much my point.

During the late 90s Corrie tried to emulate the more harsher side of soaps due to the success of Brookie and EE(something i mentioned on a debate previously) and The Battersby's were meant to add a sense of realism to the Soap not seen in years(same with The Corkhills when Brookie went through a transition in the early 90s) I even read somewhere in a paper at the time that Les was billed as Corrie's answer to Jimmy in the same way Terry Duckworth was Corrie's answer to Barry Grant(in the early years anyway).

Where as Jimmy for all his faults was popular to viewers(if not his neighbours) for his dodgy dealing, rocky relationships with his family and his unneighbourly antics, Les took that persona to a different and painful level and made the final few years of Corrie in the 20th century unbearable, plus his love for Status Quo, I HATE STATUS QUO!

Yes, Ellie, Scott is a completely useless character. We can only hope that he is one of the people dispatched in the Halloween stunt.

I hope so, normally if a character will die they will go OTT evil or be redeemed, they started trying to make us feel sorry for him so hopefully its him

After the complete mess that is Scott Drinkwell, HO's next worse actor is a bit of a toss up between (Freddie Roscoe) and Nico Blake, simply because they're both so utterly awful. Please Mr Berkwood, can you get rid of these non-actors as soon as possible?

Violet from Corrie. My god I hated her with a passion. I could easily have strangled her with one of her bloody scarves.

Roxy from Home and Away. Whiny cow that could never make her mind up.

Sally from Home and Away. I'm one of the very few that never thought the sun shone out of her ass. Bitchy, hypocritical, eternal victim and endlessly mothered.A saint and a martyr rolled into one. No thanks.

bib I spent the majority of the time racking my brains trying to think why Katie hung around with her.
She was incredibly homophobic too
