The actor, in the broadest sense of the word, that plays Martin Platt in 'Coronation Street' is leaving after 20 years. If you had a chance to get rid of ONE actor from a soap opera, who would it be and why?

(And, yes, we know none of them can act!!!!!!!!)

Gail "ET" Platt.. She is just, annoying on so many levels.. Oh and did you know they're killing Karl Kennedy off in Neighbours next week?! He dies of a heart attack after a barney with Izzy apparently, dumbass bitch... He should've stuck with Susan, she's better looking and loads nicer.

Cilla from Coronation Street! That impression of the back end of a bus is getting on my nerves! :mad:

Found this on Google that might explain it (http://www.answerbag.com/q_view.php/8259)

Jack Sugdens daughter, as she really can not act.

I'd be more than happy for the Daleks to invade Albert Square and exterminate the lot of them.

Especially the previously mentioned Pauline Fowler. Preferably several times just to make sure.

Its got to be Sally Webster, shes the most irritating woman on TV.

Sally Webster -grrrrrrrrrrrrr. No, Cilla Grrrrrrrrrr. No Sally, hmm Cilla, GET THEM OFF !

The Webster family... :loopy: is all i have to say about them

I can't believe I used to think Janice Battersby was even vaguely attractive :gag:

Now she talks like a tramp, and looks like one an' all.. :lol:

Iv'e not watched soaps for a while, BUT I would get rid of:

Arthur Brownlow (Crossroads)
Jackie Merrick (Emmerdale farm)
Ernest Bishop (Coronation St)
Arthur Fowler (Eastenders)
Yorkie Smith (The Bill)
Charlene (Neighbours)

:thumbsup:

Emily bl**dy Bishop - what a waste of time she is on Coronation Street. She never has a story line - well I suppose she can't really get involved in a love triangle can she!!! I just can't see what she contributes at least her lodger is mildly amusing.

Another candidate is Betty - also from Coronation Street, her only story line is when she is not around to cook the Hot Pot and the huge drama that follows trying to find a substitute Hot Pot Cooker!!

Have you tried Betty's Hot Pot?, It's vile.
It tastes like pedigree chum. She made us some when we came back from Katies funeral the other week.

Charlene hasn't been in Neighbours for years, Arthur Fowler's been dead at least 5 years. Ernest Bishop died Donkey's years ago, and Crossroads ain't on any more.

As a reversal, I would like to see Nick Cotton back, but not on Eastenders.
He would play a good part on corra as one of the Baldwins relatives.

I'd like to see whichever one of the Alessi twins Paul Robinson married come back on Neighbours (think it was Christina), she could come back and have a big catfight with that dumb blonde piece Izzy over her "affair" with Paul.

I used to think she was OK when she was first in it, but I've gone off her quite a bit lately, she's too bitchy and typically "blonde" for my tastes.. No offense to blonde folk, hell I'm blonde myself... :P

Please I SO AGREE WITH THAT,WHAT A WHINGER,SO GLAD SHE IS NO RELATION TO ME:rant: :rant:

I would definately get rid of Cilla in Coronation St but most of all i would give the boot to Les Battersby. That man CAN NOT act for peanuts and really gets on my nerves..Give him the boot Coro please.

Eagleton actually.. Pronounced Eggleton.

For Pauline Fowler I think it is a case of not whether she should go but how should she go.

Should she be allowed to leave the square peacefully eg to go and live with Michele in the States?

Should she meet a painful death?

How about run over by Dot Cotton?

That Claire (Ashley's wife) from corrie, she makes me cringe everytime I watch it!

Q. Who should go from soap operas ?

A. The audience!

God yes i agree, i had forgotten about her, Can't think why. What did Coro think they were doing pairing up two drips..
