  1. I'd put Blanche as best battleaxe, but she was quite a woman. I'm glad Rita was near the top, she deserves it. Shocked not to see the likes of Elsie, Ena and Annie near the top though. They were the mould of classic soap women.

  2. I also was surprised that Blanche won but there you go! It's good to have a free hand at voting for whoever you want to vote for isn't it? I'm really pleased with the number of votes we had and hopefully next year we can be even bigger on the oggies.

  3. At least it was someone well-deserved. These awards are a good idea, puts mine in the shade tbh. Btw, my Corrie couple countdown continues, although I'm on a break now as it's exams time but will reprise in about a month.
