Who was your favourite Brookside Character?

[Treacle]

Mine has to be the fabulous Jackie Corkhill. The way she shouted at Jimmy was amazing, it was as if she was really in that situation. I loved everything about her. "Not drugs again Jimmy", she was one of the best characters ever and before it went silly her and Jimmy were one of the best soap couples ever!

Jackie must have been fit in her day, but Jimmy gave her that haggard look.

Who would my fav character be? Have to think about that - Harry Cross maybe?

[Treacle]

Oh yeah Harry was fantastic and Sinbad was another great character.

This is from Debs, I think she posted it in the wrong thread.

Jimmy Corkhill

Wasnthe just the best character in a soap ever?!

so much happened to him! and i loved it all. loved him towards the end when he seemed a bit strange.

i reall miss brookside. i liked it better than easties at the time. it was such a shame when they axed it. i never understood why. it has so many fans.

all the characters were great bev, ron and josh they were so funny

i miss it too maybe one day they will see sense and bring it back like they did with crossroads (but obviosly it wil do better!!)

sorry repeat post

[melmarshall858]

yeah so many fab characters - i liked jacqui dixon and katie (till they made her boring towards the end) also liked nikki and emily shadwick and tinhead. the jordaches were great.and jimmy was one of the best long standing characters in soap.

dont know if it would work now bringing brookie back (although i would love it if they could) 2 years after everyone sold up how would they get everyone to buy their old houses back after moving on with their lives but would like to see the soap re - run

Bad Boy Barry Grant. At one time they were re-running Brookie from the beginning, I'm talking a few years back now, it was on Living TV. I loved Brookie and was annoyed when they moved the time slot for the end of the series. A re-run would be good, perhaps Saturday or Sunday afternoon on C4.

Barry Grant rocked. From hard core socialist to hard core capitalist, on to murderer - his character was just great!

i agree i am sure loads of the old fans and maybe some new ones would tune in to see it from the beginning to see how everything started and meet some of the characters from the begging it would be a pleasane change for a sunday aft compared to the rubbish we usually have to put up with
