I know too much time on my hands

Good thread!

I tend to think more of scenes with a lot of people in them as opposed to particular people, though.

Ok I will make an exception just for you

If i was said to think of any eastenders character I'd think of Bracey. It used to be Phil or Pat or Peggy.

Eastenders ~ Dot Cotton
Emmerdale~ Kim Tate
Corrie~ Ken Barlow
Family Affairs~ Pete Callan
Neighbours~ Harold Bishop or Helen Daniels
The Bill~ June Ackland
Casualty~ Charlie Fairhead

Sons & Daughters - Patricia.

Falcon Crest - Jane Wyman (can't remember her character's name but she was a bitch.)

Dallas - JR Ewing

Dynasty - Alexis

I've added a few of the older ones for ya.

Exactly who I would have said

Ooer

Was Jane Wyman's character Angela Channing? (I thought Lance was nice, and I was still attending junior school when I watched it. )

Corrie - Minnie Caldwell (because she is my favourite character ever)
Eastenders - Probably Sharon or Dot, or someone being killed
Emmerdale - Steph or Annie Sugden
Neighbours - Helen or Bree (because she is my favourite character ever)

wasn't lance in Grease

Eastenders- Den Watts,kat,stacey,bradley and Dot.

Eastenders ~ Rolly and Little Willy (the dogs)
Emmerdale~ Butch Dingle
Corrie~ Ena Sharples
Family Affairs~ Pete Callan
Neighbours~ Scott Robinson (Jason Donovan)
Brookside~ Jimmy Corkhill
Dallas - Gotta be JR's hat
Falcon Crest - Lance (Lorenzo Lomas I think)
Take the High Road - Helen Blair

I would have said Ena but theres too many, Minnie always springs to mind, as do Bet, Betty, Ken, Annie, etc...

Dont forget Sonny Jim and little bobby

EastEnders - Arfer Fowler, Lou Beale, Den and Angie Watts and Ethel.
Coronation Street - Stan and Hilda Ogden, Eddie Yeats and Mrs Walker.
Emmerdale - the bloke with the hat sat in the pub.

Lance was the hunky son with the sports car. Sadly, he would have been way too old for me at that time, even though I think he was only in his late 20s.

EastEnders - Dirty Den
Corrie - Elsie Tanner (can't believe no one else has chosen her!)
Emmerdale - Zoe Tate
Neighbours - Kylie
Brookie - Sheila... or maybe Sinbad
