    Agreed, Dr Thorne is such a fantastic Troll! :joy: How I wish he were around longer just to continue with his trollish ways! :mrgreen:

    Then again if he stuck around for longer, they'd probably find a way to make their darling pet Saint Snoaty-Parker Abi the "key" to his downfall somehow.🙄

    Another vote for the tremendous Henry Thorne in CS. Also Marlon’s nurse, Gail in Emmerdale

    I really like Lennie, the PI Gary Windass sometimes uses on Corrie.

    Also, the guy who was after Todd, who’d ripped him off - Eileen sorted him out. I can’t remember his name, but he was sometimes called Lugs on here.

    Quite liked Henry, Gemma’s posh boyfriend, too.

    Hope's half sister Jade, and the daughter of the copper who abused Bethany (Kayla?).

    As Jean would call him… “that nice Dr Al Jenkins” in EastEnders.

    Steve Owen's mum, Barbara. Played magnificently by Sheila Hancock.

    Stephanie Cole, who played Roy Cropper's mum for a while. Shame that she left the show rather suddenly.

    Lillian Spencer in Corrie. Now don't get me wrong, I love Evelyn Plummer (and Maureen Lipman too for that matter) but Lillian was a far better character IMO and had so much potential going forward.

    Just looked it up and I can't believe it was 20 years since she appeared though. God, I feel old.

    Denise Welch as Alison Slater in Eastenders - Welch only appeared in one episode but she was amazing in it.
