It's another week in the fab Inside Soap magazine poll to make the UK's best soap, ever. This week they're asking fans to vote for soap's best pub landlady or landlord.In the running from Coronation Street are Bet Lynch, Annie Walker and Fred Elliott. Cast your votes here.
Annie Walker for me! She had class! Maybe I'll offend many, but I never like Bet, although I ranked her high, as she's a well-known figure. Peggy Mitchell, Amos Brearly and Den Watts are also favourites.
ReplyDeleteAnnie Walker gets my vote too.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm for annie Walker too. One of the Beaumonts of Clitheroe. Doris Speed was excellent as the original soap snob.
ReplyDeleteThere hasn't been anyone quite like Annie since has there? Maureen Lipman's bar manager, perhaps.
ReplyDeleteI remember Maureen Lipman and from what I recall, her character, Lillian? was a card board cut out of our Annie and I also remember that she was crucified by the critics at the time.
ReplyDeleteI think Maureen Lipman was wonderful as Lilian, shame she'll not return though.
