    For me it has to be Eoghan the taxi driver in Fair City. Just can't stand him and don't think he's one of these people that will grow on me.
    So, what about you?

    Many many years ago, I liked Natalie in Corrie. She had the affair with Kevin and some brilliant scraps with Sally.

    Rita Sullivan now and years back I find her character stuck up, she treats Norris who I love like dirt.

    Todd and Nick, in Coronation Street. Nick is a very poorly acted caricature of Basil Fawlty, at his worst and Todd is totally overdone, every time he calls someone 'sweet cheeks', I want to kick my tv.

    Bela Doyle. His grey dull face is so annoying. He's always giving out, and is never happy about anything.

    Maria in corrie without a shadow of a doubt. She has been middle aged since she was fifteen.

    Lloyd and andrea in corrie. Saying both because you rarely see one without the other and both are highly irritating.

    Has everyone forgiven Paul from Corrie? He was the drippy fireman with the boring jacket collection that was living with Eileen.

    Not sure about in the past, but my current least favourite is Mondo O'Connell from Fair City.

    My mother hated Lucy in Fair City - but we went to see Pride and Prejudice in the Gate last night and she was excellent! Just shows it is down to the writers

    Tamwar in Eastenders has got to be the most depressed/depressing character in soap history. Like seriously,what is the point of him??!

    You can backdate your dislike of Mondo to early 2000s and cover both categories!

    Everyone in Fair City and it's all down to the absolutely ATROCIOUS script. I was watching a Nationwide special about FC a few weeks ago and was surprised to see that they actually do have paid adult scriptwriters and it's not just written by a group of pimply transition year boys like I suspected....
