The first two minutes of this is a masterpiece! Everything you need to know about Weatherfield's 'worst' family.

"Where's me trousers?" roared Les.

Wow great start

I stopped watching corrie not long after they joined.

Couldn't take to them and couldn't watch them.

Not watched it since either.

I can't believe that is 20 years next year! Where has the time gone.

Never a fan of OTT idiot Les, though he got MUCH worse when paired with the dreadful Cilla, Janice was quite entertaining in t'factoreh, but the real obvious stars and yes, saviours in part, of 90s Corrie were Leanne & Toyah!!

They were awful. Trully awful

So many classic characters, so many great lines. I can see why people were put off by Les/Janice, but you can't help but get sucked into the drama.

Completely forgot about Angie and Chris.

"Use him, learn from him. Get what you can from him and then do what you want"

I loved the Battersbys. Les was the best. Wish he was still in it.

Next May will mark 10 years since his last appearance. He needs to turn up at street cars out of nowhere and say "wow, that was a big fare" (after all, his final scene was in the cab office).
